Advise to prepare for November

Jethro1200 · Oct 16, 2016

Given the political situation we may find ourselves in come November, and the various shortages we have seen in the past, what repair parts would you keep on hand? We all know the big stuff, ammo etc. but what little parts do you want on hand to keep you rifle system up and running?
This is not a back door attempt to start a SHTF conversation since that has been covered just your parts list of what you keep close, just in case.

What wears out? Springs, extractors, stuff like that. Odds are though, there really won't be a shortage of parts like that. Not enough people are after them.

High Capacity magazines, a set of springs, concealed carry holsters, extra cleaning brushes, oil, grease. That's about it. I already have enough of these items to last me a good long time but a worst case situation may last a good long time.

I would guess that tin foil will turn into unobtanium if it hasn't already.

Seriously, if you want buy a few ar parts kits but I can only guess how many are out there waiting for something to happen.

Springs don't wear out. Firing pins and extractors break though. Like Mauser lover says, isn't likely to be any parts shortage.

Umm... Springs don't wear out?

Having just recently bought an FN-15 the first thing I bought was two spring kits with pins, firing pins and rebuild components for the insides. Trigger is not likely to go bad, along with barrel. Have 20+ 30 round mags and 5K of ammo, plus 1K of Social. I have multiple parts and pieces for my Glocks. I believe I have it all covered.
