Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.
I do prep in a very small way.....there are some essentials I have that will be useful, I always buy extra food especially canned etc. But what I meant really I am not set up yet. I don't have bug out bags packed and ready, don't have water purification ready and large containers, don't have a large stash of MRE's and other long term food stash stuff.....etc etc. I'd be in a pile of poop if we had an earthquake that was very bad or some sudden catastrophe.
What I will be able to do quite nicely is shoot a lot of very bad people trying to get their grubby hands on what supplies I do have.


I have a bunch of handguns, an AR-15, a .308 bolt action tactical type rifle and two more AR lowers I want to build out. I'm reloading as well. Trouble is, as soon as I make them I go shoot them. I have to get to a point of reloading to have a large supply.
Welcome, your avatar is my familys coat of arms
Mine too. That is cool.....quite a coincidence really. I've not ever met someone other than a family member with our coat of arms. Is your family originally from England?
