Right now is not a good time to buy range ammo. I'd hold off a bit, go the next 2 months (I don't see huge indoor shooting range attendance the next couple months anyway...) with what you have, then look to buy after this wave of virus panic is past, while economy and prices is down, before election runup hits full pressure

Guy on a local gun board I'm on said Colorado Bureau of Investigations background checks are running at 17 hours. He went to pick up a lower and there were 1,700 checks in the queue.

White House briefing from a couple hours ago is making it sound like lots of younger people and kids contracting the virus and never getting symptoms at all. So spreading it and never developing symptoms. So people can get it and literally keep going on with life never feeling sick at all?

It really takes off of course after age 60 and or with compromised immune system or other underlying conditions effecting heart/lungs. We of course won't know a lot for sure for awhile when looking back and all that

Picked up some of that IMI you linked Farley.
Also some .338 lapua magnum rounds.
Plan on getting my glass mounted and setup in the next few weeks on a good piece of land where I can actually hit out past 300 yards

Something like 80% of everyone who gets this have mild or no symptoms. The problem is that it's incredibly contagious and a large number of people get it--so the "small percentage" that has critical reactions to it gets to be a really big number and hospitals can't treat them all when that hits all at once (like Italy).

Another proactive thing just-because, that you should be doing full time anyway, don't run low on gas. Fill up by 1/2 tank. If you have a generator at home, have your gas cans rotated and full. Probably gas is going to be well priced and extremely available due to the lack of traveling and commuting, but...keep your gas well regulated.

What part of the way a virus spreads are you unaware of?
How is it you still don't understand that the timeline of infection is different in different areas?
And you're so right, knowledge of the risk from this...coronavirus thing...whatever that is...is definitely not common yet. Nobody has really heard of it yet.

Why the numbers of actual cases could be significantly higher because 1)not everyone is getting tested and 2) a majority of people if it wasnt a think would think they just had a cough. It is extremely easy to contract and if you are exposed you *do* get it basically. That's the dangerous part.
I think i saw on fox news at the gym last night that there were 14,000 confirmed cases in the US. And 30-something deaths. That 14,000 number could be 10-100x higher just based on the above. Factor all of that in and i really hope in a month or 2 were all going "jesus fukk we overreacted." But i also hope that doesnt make people lazy to something real. That's what annoys me the most about all of this and the 24 hours news cycle combined with cancel culture. It drives people into hysteria.

Picked this up today, and 2 extra BX-25 mags. Front and rear UTG slim iron sights. Been wanting one for a long time, and since this is end times, I thought I'd better hurry.




I'm not blessed with riches, but I am rich with blessings.
Thank you, LORD, my God.

Okay.
Okay.
i really find it funny you're leaning on a website dedicated to people who prep and HOPE that something like this happens, they want it to be true so bad they spread false info to justify their prepping.
Back when antifa was at its highest during our last election, there were SEVERAL posts including one from a "well known" people on in the gun community who read a letter he got from his friend "high in government" that martial law was going to be imposed on xyz date.... never happened..
again this is serious and we should take it as such, but these random bs ******** posts/shares from friends of friends of freinds who are "medical professionals" who don't exist are horsechit
