OK, I have decided to move from SHTF Condition Yellow (something bad is going to happen) to Condition Orange (something bad is going to happen SOON). This means that all non-SHTF purchases are suspended indefinitely and that my PRIMARY SHTF purchase is on food stocks. Going over my checklist, I can see that while I am ahead of 99.99% of the population in overall readiness, I am pretty far behind where I want to be.
My focus now is 3-6 months of food for 3 people (and yes, 3-6 months of dog food) and organization of my readiness area in the basement.
Some things that I remembered: my frigging AR's break all the time and have all these fussy little springs. I got some AR parts kits to have around. When it gets bad, I will have to move onto the AK platform. Need a couple K more 7.62x39/5.45x39.
:Reloading up and running. Gotta focus on getting my presses up and getting some more supplies. I only have a few thousand primers. My understanding is that they are really hard to find these days...
Anyway, gotta make a list and get out to BJ's.
The storm is coming soon, I can feel it.
