I have been thinking a lot lately of my bug-out guns and the ability to resupply ammunition should the need arise. Now lets face it if a truly national large scale event took place I would predict every possible retail resupply source would dry up in short order.
So with retail outlets discarded I decided to base my choices on common calibers which maybe found while savaging (Not taken by force, abandon property searches etc.) in a urban setting. Since one would be most prudent to travel lite while bugging out I limited my calibers to four if in a vehicle and two if on foot.
Now before I disclose my choices I was wondering what everyone else was packing if forced to drive or hoof it on foot to another location and the reason behind those choices.
Many times in past threads I have read that the 5.56 or 9mm caliber would be good choice due to possible resupply from military sources, Now while military ammunition resupply could be possible for law enforcement personnel I would bet most members here could agree that such a scenario would be highly unlikely for civilians so to that end lets keep it to more likely and reasonable chances of procurement.
