Most of tbe newbies won't ever fire their weapons.


I've always told people who have literally never fired a gun who asked me for advice about what defense weapon to get...not to, a gun isn't for everyone. Now I have taken people out to shoot and brought them up to some degree of familiarity...a couple never were going to get it, others did just fine.

The first thing is to not be scared of the weapon.

And when the powder is burned, there's no calling the projectile back.

So only touch the trigger when you know your target.

Before the first thing, make sure they know what it can do!

IMHO: One thing about an EYVC (E******n Year V***s Crisis), it shows what people can expect if they elect someone like Occasional Cortex, Bernie, or Sleepy Joe. Empty shelves and Marshal Law. The grocery stores look about like the stores in East Berlin back in the sixties, but, what do you know -- East Berlin is still there.

An EYVC sells toilet paper like Obama sold guns. Haven't noticed a real rush on buying guns in my area yet, so maybe most of my friends and neighbors have enough of them already! I don't know what the attraction is for the rush on toilet paper, maybe people are expecting SHTF or something. If enough Progressives buy guns, no more than they appear to know about guns, they will likely end up shooting themselves and flooding the hospitals with self-inflicted wounds.

So far, this EYVC hasn't bothered me much since I have been preparing for a liberal attack for nine or ten years. Bio-terrorism is what I've been expecting rather than nukes and all that conventional stuff, since it is so much more efficient; k*****g people and not destroying the infrastructure. It fits right in with the Agenda 21 goals for reducing world population, along with wars in general. At my age, I'm not going to worry about it very much, other than to defend myself, my property, and my family if it comes to that.

Things have drastically changed from the time we could have a shotgun on a gun rack at high school.

Hell of a black market for guns. If someone wants one and has the scratch they will get one.

I still am not ready to arm myself, and someday that might be to late, but if I do, I won't go through any government approval regulations. They are the reason I would arm myself.

Meanwhile I urge anyone on the right to seriously consider arming yourself or add to your arms. That day you need it might still be just over the horizon.

Now that's free market. As long as that lasts, I'm not desperate to load up yet. But the time might come.
