And their off :ughh:





It is happening in coronavirus covid-19 hot zones. It is happening all around the country too, at an increasing rate. There are reports, images, and video of shelves being decimated in the aisles of stores. Not everywhere, but it’s definitely happening in lots of places.

It’s Blowing Up
It feels like there is a perfect storm which is now beginning the ‘blow up’ phase. Bombogenesis. A rapidly intensifying storm under ‘perfect’ conditions…

Fear Soup
I am eluding to several things. The potential rapid end of the current massive global credit expansion and markets which are insanely overdue to go over the cliff (in my view). The GREAT DIVIDE here in the USA between socialist-communist-marxists vs. the rest of us (unfolding election year). And now this unleashed (by accident or on-purpose) bio-weapon covid-19. There’s more in the FEAR SOUP, but those are the biggies right now… but I digress.

Panic Buying at grocery stores is the result of coronavirus covid-19, and fear thereof.
Long term food storage companies. They have been wiped out. Everything’s flying off the shelves. Consequently there are big delays to get product (better late than never?).

Many grocery stores and warehouse stores (i.e. Costco) are being hit hard in certain categories (read on).

Though I do need to see if my buddy can get me a couple of cases of mre's just for my normal stocks I have a case that I need to rotate out, and I know he has them laying around from drill weekend with the recruits.

Ok, OK, I'll admit it, I panicked. I bought a new Canik TP9 Combat Elite 9mm last weekend. But now I feel better, I am ready for that nasty old China bug now. :bounce:

Hawaii is seeing shortages of toilet paper, baby wipes, disinfectant wipes and spray, and of course hand sanitizer.
I know this because the boy was telling me last night some people are going apeshit crazy already panicking.

We're good.

If I ever was going to panic/stock - it would be a boxcar of toilet paper.

So is fiberglass, I used it one time when I was a kid, and OMG! It was torture for a good week after that, and I was scratching my hiney hole until it was raw.

You should try using a hornet's nest.

Range Review Please!

Haven't gotten it to the range yet. I have been covered up here but maybe this weekend. I know it feels good in my hand, nice balance, good fit and finish. The trigger feels really good. I have been hearing good things about the Elite Combat, saw one at a good price, so I bought it.

I first thought that a breakdown of society would be running out of gas/oil to run machinery, or the loss of the electrical grid.

Now we know that the end of society will be marked by the end of toilet paper.

What have we become?

The wife had that look in her eye for a second when I said get a bunch more TP and some canned goods bleach and soap.

And sho nuff they are running on toilet paper. And water for some reason? I had the wife get a bunch of distilled water for my humidor and her nettie pot.

I was going to do some panic buying. But after checking my account, I realized I could only afford to panic.
