Hello, new member here from Central MA. Not new to prepping, been semi prepping for about 15 years and started taking it a little more seriously a few years back.
I started with a few guns, a bob, and a little extra food. Since then my armament has grown considerably. Not so much because I think I'm ever going to need 50 firearms, I just like owning, shooting, and collecting them. I'm also pretty flush with ammo as I have been stocking up on it for the past 15 years in anticipation.
I have stockpiled probably a little over a years worth of lts food for me and my son who is 8. Mostly the normal long term dried foods as well as a pretty good stock of canned foods and water collection system as well as the ability to filter/purify more than I would ever need.
I don't live in the city but unfortunately I'm not exactly in a remote location. So while ideally I plan to bug in I try to keep as many of my preps as I can mobile in the case of the event that I would have to bug out. I do have a couple locations that I've pre-scouted that would work but I'm also in the process of looking for a piece of land.
As of now I'm basically an army of 1, or 1 1/2 if I count my son. Been on the lookout for local preppers for quite a while without much luck. I've met with a few people but none that seemed like they would bring anything to the table that I can't already do on my own. Any extra guns would be nice, but not at the expense of being a drain on my own resources.
Sorry for the long intro, just trying to get as much info in it as I can. I look forward to learning from some of the more experienced members here and possibly providing useful information to some as well.
