Recently I had a 9100SBK Auto Stryker up for sale on the forum, well you know how it goes some time they are snapped up and other times they just sit there. They are perfectly legal to own in PA but it's illegal to carry one, so I thought why not sell it and get something else that you can carry.

I keep my knives in my Gun Safe and when it was open my wife made a comment "Why are you selling that knife, you have all these guns, ammunition and we keep emergency food supplies so why sell the knife", the reality did hit me why am I selling it.

I look at the world and see it going to hell in a hand basket at now lightening speed, with National Debits that can never be paid off and Governments only making things worse.

I then asked myself if it got that bad and there was a lose Law and Order by some means either a man made Economic Collapse or a Major Pandemic even greater than the Spanish Flue of 1918 would I really care and use any means possible to survive.

The answer was HELL YES, I would carry it in a heart beat to protect my family...!!!

What are your thoughts...!!!!

Well as we look today at the Dow Jones starting it's last wave cycle down to head back up again, it is seriously starting to remind me of The Great Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the warning waves before that.

As we pass though September and come into October one has to start to think is the market ready for a Repeat Performance of October 1929...???

The most serious falls of the Stock Market seem to happen in an October and with the world economy's being as weak as they are it does smell like a BIG ONE is on it's way...!!!

Then off course I could be wrong... Roll Eyes

Invest in precious metals; gold, silver, lead, brass, and M4.

You forget to mention a GOOD KNIFE that might be one of the most precious metals (or objects made of metal) that you could own.. Big Grin

That was the M4...but I guess that could be taken more than one way.

If shhh hit the fan, knives would be of great value. I wonder if I could barter a nice user like a 14205 for a cow or atleast some chickens lol

Full-grown cows are worth $600+ as a base. Probably more after the shhh hits the fan. May have to group a few 14205's together I think. Wink

The basic idea of BARTER is as old as civilization it's self and even prehistory, what use is an ounce of GOLD when the same ounce of LED has better ballistic properties... and a good Auto Knife is better to defend yourself when your last round has been fired....!!!
