When it really happens: SHTF...

Construction wouldn't be struggling if the Governor didn't shut us down. I personally have work as do most other companies. But under threat of losing our licenses and being fined or put in jail, it isn't worth the risk at this point. If this goes on for more than a few weeks however, that's a different story. Construction is on the list of essential businesses at the federal level.

As for what I'm doing, watching all the ammunition in the country dry up before my eyes along with most of the accessories needed like magazines and clips. I did find a seller of 7.62x39 this morning but it will be four weeks before I get it. Tried installing a steel magazine that I had here already in my SKS but it was a piece of crap and restored the original. Ordered two plastic promags today. Ordered 10 Garand clips last night, they actually were not hard to find. AK and AR magazines are all gone. I have a few, just have to find them.

Anti gunners are starting to panic and are trying to use this crisis and the massive ammo purchases to try to legislate the sale of ammunition. They want all purchasers to be licensed and for each purchase to go through a background check. Isn't going to go anywhere but it is what it is.

All the counties directly to the east of ours has been placed under shelter in place orders. Almost sounds the same as what we are under now as you can still go out for essentials and exercise but you are supposed to practice social distancing. That is something which we seem capable of doing extremely well. No one is pushing around, everyone stays clear of everyone else. Not sure if it is a natural sense of individualism, distrust, paranoia or actually listening to the government for once in our lives but we are doing it. Except for the damn kids. They still think it's party time.
