    I don't even know how old these guns are, my wife is guessing 40-50 years old each. And they don't know how to use them. They want some 12ga and I have some extra that they will get. But I'd be hesitant to see them with anything more powerful than a quail/rabbit load given their lack of training.

    Other than that I have a ton of Gun Club target loads in 2 3/4"...and will have since GPIW is on lockdown

    Agreed.

    Also, having survived the end of the world 10 or 12 times helps assuage panic.

    As you get older, it's generally curves.

    I'll toss this one in here: Training always trumps guns and ammo ... and I'm not just talking about shootin' training either.

    100 rounds and a Pistol or Rifle class is worth more than a couple cases of ammo with no training. I pity everyone that feels they need more ammo but never think about signing up for a class.

    When this blows over, take the opportunity to fix it. The peace that comes from being prepared is worth it.

    Last night was absolutely sobering. Oddly 1101 was SLAMMED as I drove by... But that was the only business that had more than 4 cars in the lot. Coming back from Cal city about 1am was just insane.... Stopped for gas at Speedway on 41 & 30 and just a single Schererville squad rolled by while filling...

    Shades of 9/11 only a whole lot worse. For those who lived thru it.
