guys
nothing personal, so please dont take it the wrong way, but some of you are just silly. 100,000 rounds + of ammo per gun? to be quite honest, i really think thats just WAY WAY over kill. youd be well ahead instead of stockpiling ammunition like that to get into reloading if your not already and stockpile components. having lots of reloading goodies on hand can be considered a "hobby", and youll get way WAY more ammo that way then having it all loaded. having 100,000 rounds loaded per gun ( and then bragging about it online ) is just an invitation for john q law to find some reason to nail your hide to a board, especially with the terrorist crap always going on and being stuck in every law enforcement agents mind in the USA. believe me, they WILL screw with you, and confiscate every piece of it, your guns ect, and make a case on you. i know almost first hand because i have a friend that it happened to. he had ammunition like that, and smeone called the feds on him and said they were worried, as it wasnt stored properly, and they were afraid because the only reason anyone might have ammo like that is if they were up to no good. well, the feds came in, checked everything out and confiscated it ( because of "unsafe storage" they said) . when he went to court, the judge ordered them to give him his guns back, but also agreed that no one needed that many pieces of ammunition, and that to safely store it, he would have to buy all sorts of fireproof reinforced crap. also, i had the cruddy opertunity to speak to the nimrod that is sponsoring AB-962 in california. if your not familiar, its the law there trying to pass that will only allow you to buy 50rds of ammunition a month, no transfer of ammunition, ammunition registration and fingerprinting,etc. he said the only reason that they decided that a bill like this was needed is because they had READ ONLINE and had SEEN FIRST HAND about these "guys" who were stockpiling ammunition in such large quantities that they were being WATCHED by the police for terrorist activities.
100,000 rounds per gun?....first thing that would happen if we did get into a shooting war or a civil war is that now that youve bragged about having all of this ammo, the cops will come right in and confiscate it so it isnt distributed, and then youll say F you (like i would) and before you got "you" out of your mouth, they would shoot you dead on the spot ( as they would me). dont think they dont know about it as DOJ,BATFE and the FBI watch all of these firearms related websites all the time, and you are FAR from anonymous. they can go thru your ISP and find out who you are, your address,etc with 1 phone call. ive seen them do it.
plus, think of it like this.
reloading components are designed to be as safe as possible IN THERE ORIGINAL CONTAINERS. powder will keep virtually indefinitely in its original container, sealed up. if you have a fire, it will flare and fizzle and be done. wereas having 100,000 rounds of ammunition for each gun you own,in the same circumstances, youll not only have an extreme explosion, youll probably inadvertantly kill most of your neigbors from exploding flying shrapnel
like i said, if your hording ammunition, your going to be viewed as a terrorist or antagonist. if you stockpile reloading equipment and supplies, bullet moulds,etc your are a hobbyist and a reloader. if chit did hit the fan, its not like the enemies going to be on your front lawn that fast, youd have plenty of tme to load all the ammunition youd ever need.plus, you get alot of guys who watch rambo or full metal jacket, and all the sudden there rambo and a killing machine, theres alot more to it then having loaded ammunition and guns. most have been programmed from day one with "thal shall not kill". alot of guys talk alot of chit, but most would freeze up instantly if they had to shoot at another human being,especially if you dont have any combat experience. some guys see a couple of movies and think there a killing machine. thats funny.
like i said before, dont take it wrong and its nothing personal, and im not trying to be an a**hole, but get a clue will ya? use your head guys. ok, so you have a buttload of ammunition thats being stored unsafely ( if you have 50,000 to 100,000 rounds per gun of loaded ammunition stockpiled, id bet your not storing safely), what would possess yhou to even think about getting on the internet in an open forums and bragging about it/>?
me?.....yes, i have ammunition for my firearms,but really, its no ones business how much i have but mine. ive got enough to protect me and mine, and thats all i need.
