Gold or Gun ?

[kusai]

In all the below scenario's both come handy. What would you rather buy in the current times ? Most of us have heavily invested in guns on one part or another do you think you would have been better off buying gold for the same amount.

Emergencies
Economic collapse
Financial safety
Tyranny

Cant think of more

Why limit yourself to either or? Some of both would be appropriate. I for one though can't afford gold so I am picking up a little silver slowly but surely. A little at at time. My main focus right now though is ammo.

Lead and brass is the new gold

That is how I feel about it.

If you have all the ammo and guns you need then yes get gold and silver in small denominations. Stay away from the 1 ounce coins. However bartering with bullets, seeds ect are good ideas too in case TSHTF.if it doesn't then still not a bad hedge

go with 1/10oz coins

Stay away from the 1 ounce coins.

Why is that? Is that like only having a $200 bill or something?

One ounce of gold is worth $1500 or so. It is hard to break it up into usable denominations.

For those that currently do not have the financial means to invest in gold, I feel as though its much more beneficial to take what money you can spare, and invest in guns. Guns>Gold. A $1,000 investment in gold won't get you far. But $1,000 in lead can get you a lot of gold, if TSHTF.

When do you think gold will reach $2K per ounce?

There were a few hours last year that it got over 2k, but there was a large buy that spiked the price and as soon as it did a lot of dealers dumped gold to the large buyers (smelters) and the price dropped again. I was working for a precious metal dealer at the time.

Thanks. I feel like its too late to start saving to stock up on gold. I know I dont have thousands to invest in a few ounces of gold. And even if I did, I'd still rather have a larger stockpile of lead than a few ounces of gold.

However, if you have shit loads of money, I'd definitely invest in gold, AND guns.

Look up the gold chart and it has been going up since past 30 years now. And now its losing steam fast. I gave been tracking it since 2004 when it was $350 an ounce and the cycle has to come to a full circle now, it cannot keep climbing forever.

Sent from the black hole

But .223/ .556 is a dollar a round, thats gold to me..

 

[Shorts]

Guns and ammo. Then I'll go take everyone else's gold. I'm going to steal A.Texas.Yankee's idea and travel to the anti states. They won't have guns so I'll take their stuff first.

Gas up shorts!!' Im in

Most of my gold is in small weights.....5gr....10gr, etc.
Silver can be kept in larger sized bars or coins.
