Re: Another annoying hypothetical
I don't really know what your ultimate "goals" are with this collection, but it should be noted that of your three types of firearms, only one is in a popular "official" round for our continent.
For pistols you've chosen .45, a very popular gun to be sure, but not widely in use by any government agencies for 20 years as far as I know.
For rifles you've chosen 7.62x39, another popular one, but not only not used widely by any government agency in the US, is it even manufactured here? I'm really asking as I don't know. The only 7.62x39 I've ever seen was imported.
Beyond the obvious TSHTF scenarios, the one thing you can be fairly sure of is that when everything else goes to hell, they'll still make ammo for the government. It may go up and down in price, but 9mm .40 and 5.56 will *always* be available. Our economy might pick up in 12 months like they say, it might not. I wouldn't want to be tied 100% to ammunition that was manufactured for sport shooting, or ammo that had to be shipped here.
