At least that would take care of my Southern exposure. Land mines will
get the rest.

The AR wasnt the weapon of choice. Prone to mechanical issues. But
price was right, and it was the only semiauto rifle in stock, in my
price range. I would have preferred the henry repeater if this were a
pleasure purchase. AR is a hyped up weapon, much like this plague. And
I dont want a semi auto shotgun. But given the purpose of the purchase
and the escalation of stupidity, it was the option. I have a couple
.22 and a 9mm handgun. .22 doesnt have the stopping power, or the
shock and awe noise factor. The kids, I prefer not touch the handgun,
too loose of a weapon. the 20 guage would be preferred for them, but
the wife said no to two guns. I dont even keep most guns at my house
currently, they stay across the street at my dads house. I needed
something with stopping power, noise, and capacity in the even the ill
prepared choose to take advantage of the shitshow that might go down.
Id prefer to not even own an AR, because even if the shitshow (that
probably wont come to pass) happens, it will end and I still will have
a politically problematic weapon, whos reputation doesnt justify its
hassle of ownership, but it is what it is. I did load all the
magazines, I normally keep ammunition in a separate container as the
stored weapons. thats the first escalation, if the morons calm their
tits, ill unstress those springs. If it continues to escalate, Ill
bring the weapons home. So no, nothing moronic or impulse about the
purchase. If you saw my walmart, youd understand. Stupid people are
dangerous, and stupid criminals are almost as bad. And when the
mandated wait is over, ill pick up another 1000 rounds when i pick up
the weapon. When the shitshow is over, hopefully i still have every
single cartridge and we can have a good fun day at the range.
Morons and governments make me nervous, theyre both too prone to
impulse stupidity

I think it falls more under prepping than hoarding at that point.
