When I turned 18 and could legally buy my own weapons...I started with the old Colt-AR. Bought new rails..stock and other parts to learn.
After going to a gun range for awhile and learning from an actual gunsmith to make my own 80% lowers, I never bought another registered gun. I did however build 4 nice rigs and grease packed them for long term storage,along with ammo/food/water.I buried them all in different states.Only myself and my wife know of them...and she don't know them all. Now when SHTF..I got my bug out to sites+my bug-out bag in my closet...I think I'll survive long enough to figure it out
Ya I kinda agree,but only when your close to cities..suburban areas...once you get out into the deep woods back country..
I clear a large killing field then build from there...steal a few shipping containers..weld them with a bit of steel plates and let them try to get my shit
I hear ya, just don't know how long I could keep up a 24 hour watch like that. Weathering a siege isn't an easy thing. Large cleared field would help, of course. Or just be hidden in the first place.
If I built a place, it would be underground or buried in a hill. Nothing but a field of grass for the marauders to see.

Well, they are fucked. We are gonna have a big enough fight here. In America. With our rifles.

Being mobile is definitely key.
I don't agree with the dig-in-and-weather it strategy. It just presents a big pile of something that someone will try very hard to take from you.
Just my opinion on the SHTF scenario.
