Just curious, with all the discussion about shtf weapons, has anyone ever had a shtf situation where they needed to rely on their weapon to save their life or somebody elses?

Do you really expect a response from folks here to tell you how they shot at or otherwise threatened other people in a non-official capacity during a time of crisis? Is anyone really that stupid to say that on an internet open forum?

I have a feeling you'll be waiting a long time for anything other than 'I heard that..........' and 'this one dude I used to know....'

Have you ever had someone hide a running fan in your toilet? Pray to god your Ar is near!

seriously zombies,apocalypse,Armageddon,war on American soil,I Am Legend, might one day happen. Don't be caught with your pants down sitting on a fan, be prepared.

plus this gives us AR owners reason to buy more.

I feel that gun owners will be the last defense in these situations and it will leave all the
gun-hating liberals wishing they knew how to flip the safety off.

my 2 cents, God Bless America!
