THE DAILY FUDD: E131: "VIDEOS: 'End of The World Guns' (Parts 1 and 2)."

The fellow is a bit long-winded, but his realistic, down-to-Earth take not afraid to go a little fudd is very valid. Most importantly, he notes the untrained/undisciplined nature on non-vet civilians. Too many gun people try to deny that. See TDF 2 and TDF 19.


MY COMMENT: THANK YOU for noting the untrained/undisciplined nature on non-vet civilians. Too many gun people try to deny that.

Good point to go for manual-actions, but I would go more for 7.62mm NATO than .30-06. More commonality.



MY COMMENT: Barring a cataclysm akin to whatever wiped out the dinosaurs, long before we got down to bows and flintlocks, the flipside of human nature--the drive for oligarchy--would have established some sort of order, which would lead to enough industrialization that we wouldn't (have to) drop that far. If it does go further, most of the people questioning this will be dead or invalid by then anyway. People need to prepare for what they can effectively prepare against, not what they can't.
One disagreement: Ammo consumption first and foremost a function of the operator. Manual-actions are better than semi-autos on the basis of reliability and maintenance. Mauser v Enfield: Cousins in the field. 7.62 Enfields are more common than Mausers in that caliber, though.
