What To Do If You Need a Gun…..and Don’t Have One

Hundreds of thousands…maybe even millions of people are “waking up” and acknowledging circumstances are such that being armed seems like a good idea. Regardless of the reasons firearms are under high demand and prices hover right around suggested retail. This means great deals are rare.

There is hope!

If you do not have a firearm and want to get one I have a few suggestions.

1. Order a gun

For most, the option of what kind of gun to get will end with the selection of a pistol. Reasons are numerous and there are pros and cons. Whatever. For someone who finds themselves gunless and looking to get something – a pistol it is(at least for this article).

Example:

AREX Delta Gen 2 Semi-Auto 9mm pistol from Global Ordnance

Price: $515

Comes with 1 x 15rd magazine, 1 x 17rd magazine

 

 

2. Order Ammunition

It’s a tough market right now, especially for someone who has absolutely no ammunition. Visiting local gun shops(LGS)  and grabbing their limit will usually be the best bet to get decent prices – but not always. Most common calibers right now are running around $1 a round. If you find it cheaper count yourself lucky.

The most reliable manner to obtain ammunition is online. Pricing is all over the place. For this article – and for the AREX 9mm pistol above I have two online suggestions for 9mm ammunition:

Palmetto State Armory & Global Ordnance

If found out of stock keep checking back.

 

3. Order Magazines

Whatever firearm you chose extra magazines are needed. For a pistol, a total of 5-6 magazines is the minimum.

Example:

AREX Delta Gen 2 Semi-Auto 9mm pistol from Global Ordnance  – – $515

500 rds 9mm ammunition – 10 bxs of 50 @ $34.99 = $349.90

3 17-rd Delta magazins @ $29.99 = $89.97

TOTAL: $954.87

This gives us the Delta 9mm pistol, 5 magazines in total, and 500 rounds of 9mm ammo.

It’s a start. A good start.

 

Summary: 

Regardless if it’s a rifle, shotgun, or pistol that’s chosen now is the time to start the journey into gun ownership.

The last and possibly most important step involves training. Learning how to use your firearm safely and proficiently is critically important. Paying a hundred bucks or so to get some firearms training is well worth it. Make it happen.

Take care folks. Crazy times we are living in. Might get crazier.
