i don't get the price difference on the mossbergs.........L-pink's are in the $1500 range but the others are ~$350 ish.

i understand that competition shotguns are pricey, but that high end mossberg isn't competition, it's tactical.

i've got a remington 870 tactical, i think i paid $400 for it many years ago. i've run quite a bit of ammo through, rock fuking solid.

WTF happened to you? You used to post cool informative shit. Now you are just one of the caustic fucking embeciles that routinely post here.

You also posted you own weapons too.. what's up with that Holmes???? You got a case of shotgun envy?

You know starving yourself, smoking weed and shotguns in the house is dangerous. Lay the pipe down, head to Carl's Junior and chill the fuck out.

No need to thank me, just read it, and be ready if it ever happens.

A very interesting read! I got down to where he speaks of body armor, but got called away. Can't wait to finish. Thanks for the link, even if you don't want it, lol.

shows you to be ill-prepared and in the scenario you envision, you will be ripped apart, limb by limb.

re: my own weapons. yes, i've had a cache of weapons in the past, and i was a card-carrying member of the nra with membership at several gun clubs, etc. and i even used to give ar-15 assault rifles out to my employees as gifts and such. i had to get rid of my ar-15 when i moved to california. soon after, i ended up gifting all of my firearms, except shottie mcboomerson, to my dad after coming to the conclusion that i am not a gun guy.

as for shotgun envy, i think my post earlier inquiring about the mossbergs shows that i am not feeling envy.

you can try and portray my lifestyle as you did above, but that rly says a lot more about you than me.

First, I own 2 Mossbergs and the spas-12 is a far superior weapon. In fact, for the scenario I envisioned it is the perfect weapon above all other legal US options.

Second, you have routinely boasted about your use of herb. This is not something I made up. So you can question my temperament from a forum post, but your drug use is not to be questioned?

OK... you win. You are a weapons expert and the mossberg is the ultimate. Take another toke and forget this conversation ever happened.

for those who cannot read between the lines of my posts, i am trying to provoke your thought processes.

here, i will spell it out for you instead:

the one thing most all survivalists have in common is the inability to accurately assess their plan and modify it going forward.

they also discuss their plan, sharing information on what is stored and how it is *defended*

if you are thinking it's a guns a blazin shoot em up, you really need to have a fully thought out >1000 yard defensive plan to cover your stockpile.

and most MOST importantly, a team approach consisting of as many neighbors as possible offers the biggest chance of survival.

Of course it will come down. Then it will go back up. And probably down again. And back up. But the trend will be UP. Why? Because currency (especially the USD and Euro) is uncertain. And if the merry-go-round stops and you're holding nothing but paper, you lose.

Can it happen? Sure.

Will it happen? No one knows, but I'd hate to be left holding nothing but my dick if it did.

Nothing wrong with preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. And that really applies to food storage or any other aspect of survival preparation.

Modern soldiers have to go through very intensive training to be taught to kill. giving them a gun, ammo and teaching them to aim and pull the trigger at a paper target is something anyone can do. Killing someone is something very different.

Go back to playing soldiers on your computers. :1orglaugh

Hey Paul,
I was in the military, I was trained to use the 1911a and the M14. I have a ribbon for both, The statement I made was in the response to state governments wanting to limit availbility of ammo to try and control our second amendment rights, so stay in your country if that bothers you.
First time I every went hunting I was 14, I know I wouldn't have a problem pulling the trigger.

mountainmiester 08-04-2011 09:35 AM

Several ammo boxes full of 9MM, .44 Mag, .308, 30/30, and shot gun shells. After that a compound bow, 6 months of dry pack food, tents, sleeping bags, water filters, cook stoves, gallons of white gas, fishing gear, first aid supplies, etc. everything i would need to live anywhere i need for at least 6 months.

Things go down, I load up the car and camping trailer and off we go, self sustained and off the grid.

I have several friends who are prepared the same and we have a meeting point and destination plan. For me, all the savings in the world aint gonna help you when the currency systems collapse and the only things people are going to want to buy with gold, I will already have.

If the world ever did have a huge financial collapse your gold and silver will be just as useless as paper money. The people with supplies, food and water and means to protect it will be the new millionaires. People will trade for food and living supplies. No one will care how big their gold collection is but how big their stockpile of food, solar equipment, other mechanical equipment used to make energy or fuel, food, everyday supplies, firearms, etc.

Yes I was, trained by marines because I was the small arms petty officer. My job was to insure all the guns were cleaned and in good working order at all times and to keep the training of others on schedule. I went to range anytime I wanted and I did a lot.
The reason I got that job because I grew up with a Marine for a step father and already had training with guns.

Choker 08-04-2011 10:57 AM

Ok so what people are posting here are items that are a good investment for survival in worst case situations. Food, water, ammo, weapons etc. The problem is if nothing bad happens and you invested thousands in these items then you lose bigtime. There has to be something you can invest in now that will not depreciate and you can get your money back plus some profit in either situation. Weapons and ammo sounds safer than food and water. Even long shelf life food loses its value as it ages. I'm thinking if silver goes below $30 it might be worth it to buy a few pounds.

And it's not like being in the military itself teaches you how to shoot... the same manual they use out on the ranges is readily available for download from the army's website... There's not much they actually teach you outside of that... since most DS/DI's have only ever had the same training they're giving you.

http://www.benning.army.mil/infantry...F/FM3-22-9.pdf

Anyway, the whole notion itself is ridiculous anyway.. there are about a handful of people who actually give a shit that the US is going down the shitter extremely fast. The rest are too occupied with the bullshit the media feeds them, american idol, facebook etc. Otherwise known as... sheeple ><

Thanks for clarifying, we are pretty much in agreement across the board. The media has become the new control that Religon once was. It's sad that everyone is more excited about the Jersy Shore in Italy than that the FAA is shut down.

I got the pistol grip variant for about the same, great shot gun. But I wouldn't use it for my primary, not enough rounds, and the reload is a bitch. The Saiga's have that issue fixed with mags but still. The name of the game is plenty of rounds, he who has to reload has less chance of shooting.

BlackCrayon 08-04-2011 11:45 AM

if shit hits the fan so bad that you'll need to grow your own food then i wouldn't count on electricity or man made fuels either...

He said teaching him to hit a target 1000 meters away was easier than teaching him to kill someone 10 meters away.

How long did the training take you and what level were you at?

He's at the top level.

Hi Paul, I shot Expert both with Pistol and Rifle. And training nowadays has us shooting at targets that silhouette a human being. You are absolutely right that pulling the trigger to take a life is hard. But I'm pretty sure by the fucked up state of our Veterans coming back from combat theater that we've got that part done pretty well.

Maybe 10%. I'm willing to bet that 100 years ago it was 50% of a family's expenses.

I agree... People no more worry about food.
I always keep my 1 year expenses as a fixed saving which keeps earning interest... So I think I will be doing nothing.

you can lose big time with gold and silver as well. :2 cents:



But you are right people are talking about too different things:
1. Investing to make a profit during bad financial times
2. What will be of most value after a financial collapse.

Your title "financial meltdown" can lead people to think you could be talking about either one of those situations above.

Really, some of you are just plain ridiculous, poorly planning for a war, not a financial meltdown.

Everyone talking about guns and weapons, which is great, but if a worst case scenario happens, as it sounds many are planning for, where is your water source? How many days/weeks/months is your food supply? Do you have antibiotics? Is your house already secure or are you just going to wait until zombies beat your door down? You going it alone like Rambo or do do you have a plan with your neighbors?

Thank God I don't live anywhere near some of you knuckle heads.

But I'll tell you what is going to happen for those of you living in the USA, most of you are going to be stripped of your weapons and probably your gold/silver too. If you honestly think the shit is going to hit the fan there, you are a fool for sticking around.
