The world continues to spiral into insanity. I was going to write up a multi-paragraph synopsis with numerous examples of government idiocracy and destructive social trending. I decided there was no need. You guys know the deal.
“You know the deal!”
Approaching the SHTF We All Prepare For: Over the last several decades people have predicted when the SHTF and what it would look like. They’ve all been wrong(including me). Not much surprises me anymore. Seems to me that ALL the writings on the wall that we are fast approaching “those times” we have wondered about. Inflation, massive federal debt, government corruption, societal decay, supply chain interruptions, massive increases in crime, division in the populace, cancel culture, wokeism, etc. – everything is pointing towards end times growing near.

Membership Area Update: Numerous new uploads in movies, TV shows, books, etc have been uploaded as well as a couple of new articles. The “American Exit Strategy” section is almost completely up-to-date. For those who are not aware, this section documents our efforts towards debt reduction, becoming more self-reliant, and eventually moving out into the woods. We also discuss camper living as we live full time in a camper.

Silver. I’ve contemplated getting into silver again. As an inflation hedge silver SHOULD be a way to protect the buying power of money in these economic challenges. My hesitation is the current prices and premiums on silver.
It’s very likely a portion of my investment savings is going to go to the precious metal very soon. I’ll update.

It seems the Ruger Mini-14 has fallen off to obscurity. I hear very little about it anymore.

Have a good week all.

JR,
I prefer 90% Junk Silver.
Recognizable, guaranteed.
Having different denominations is a plus.
I have purchased several times from here:

Here is how to calculate current value:

Thanks Brick. I plan to jump into some 90% as well.
Food and friends you can count on – you don’t have enough.
Water (sources and stored), shelter, comms, defense – tighten these up.
Resupply – consider the possibilities.
Training – get it now.
Mental attitude – get it right now, imagine the unimaginable and find solutions now!
The costs for precious metals will continue to rise. Buy as much as you can afford. I plan on using mine to barter with doctors for needed care. I’m not stocking gold, palladium, or jewels. Too hard to exchange.
Amen Rourke. WEll said or unsaid-smile !!!
re:
StromRuger Mini-14
These were our issue at a penitentiary.
An accurate version could occasionally hit in the neighborhood of a paper-plate at twenty-five feet.
An inaccurate version was closer to hour-of-continent.
The stainless-steel version galled.
The open action tended to accumulate clothing and untended writing implements.
.
Not impressed.
You are not impressed because you don’t know the difference between shit and apple butter when it comes to guns.Best to leave the conversation to the adults.
