<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Zeplyn, post: 1101492, member: 28776&quot;]After reading all the responses and indentifying the responders logic and view points I have come to realize that there are 2 main types of individuals that have responded to this thread. </p><p>Type 1: Those who believe that a really bad economic storm is on our horizion.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Type 2: Those who feel things are somewhat ok and the Gov can make it through the turmoil and debt.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Whichever side you choose is your given right. I am not passing judgement on anyone or their beliefs here. I find it interesting that some of us are preparing while others are not. It is my hope that everyone here can make their own decisions and do what is best for them. Ultimately, beyond the verbiage of economic language lies the event that is either unfolding or that will remain unseen. I hope the best for you all and that your prudence in whatever decision you make will be the right one.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As it stands today, I just went to the local grocery store and got 2 cartons of milk, bread, 3 boxes of cereal, pasta, pasta sauce, chex snack mix, coffee, coffee creamer (2bottles), 3 cans of corn, 3 cans of beans, 2 cans of chili and walked out $80.00 lighter than when I went in! Wow was what I thought. How are people feeding families?</p><p>My income has not risen in the past few years and I feel lucky to have a job. All of my expendable cash has gone toward survival and self defense items for the past year+ a few months.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As I have posted images of what I have accquired, the Benelli MR-1 (5.56mm) and M-4 12 g Shotgun, Cold Steel Trail Master Knife, Cold Steel Peace Keeper 1 Knife, Smith and Wesson Model 1911 .45 cal ACP , Ruger 22 LR Stainless Steel Bull Barrel for small game, Ammo, Ammo Storage, Fuel for cooking and automotive, and Emergency Field Medic Kit. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I feel like I am still far behind as I need some Silver and gold, a 4x4 vehicle, Large Tent, and other consumables.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So what have you all done in case you loose your job, your home, and become self reliant?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here are the images all together. Can you tell I fear the worst?</p><p>I traded the M-2 for the new M-4 and will take delivery in 2 weeks. Also waiting for delivery of the new MR-1 5.56mm weapon. That will be in 3-4 weeks as it is coming from Italy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/M-4Benelli.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> M-4</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/silo_502_mr1_223_syn_defense.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> MR-1</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/Model1911SS.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> Model 1911</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/Ruger22LR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> Ruger 22 LR</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/PeaceKeeper17blade.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> PK-1</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j410/Zeplyn216/My%20Protection/TMSK-595blade.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> Trail Master</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The Peace Keeper Knife (first one has a 7&quot; double edge Blade)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The Trail Master (2nd one) has a 9.5&quot; blade</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If social unrest develops in this Country from a collaspe in the dollar, the impact on Silver and the other PMs will default into a value exchangeable need. Therefore I also think that this will have an effect the ability to purchase items of self defense as the cost&#039;s will simply be enormus to accquire protection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
