"I do wonder though...for the "I've got mine, screw everyone else" crowd, how'd you get so prepared? How'd you know you needed to? Someone tell you? Did you get caught uprepared previously?"
That's exactly what happened,,,
I got caught unprepared.
For most of my 68 years if I wanted to go to the range,,,
I stopped off at my preferred ammo place on the way there and bought what I needed for that day.
Then Obama got elected,,,
And whether he was the direct cause or not,,,
Ammo supplies dried up and you could not expect to find it when you wanted it.
That's when I started "buying the limit" every time I saw some on the shelves,,,
I never gave one thought to the next guy because their situations weren't my responsibility.
In my defense I was always very generous in reselling at the exact same cost,,,
To friends who couldn't, for whatever reason, do the same.
A local 4-H program didn't have to shut down their youth shooting program,,,
Because I was able to supply them with a minimal amount of Wal Mart bulk packs to stay viable.
