Yep. With sufficient ammunition, all other things are obtainable -
including gold.

In the event of a total meltdown of society, that gold's value will
be determined by whoever gets their gun on target first. My
intuition tells me it won't be you.

In the event of a total meltdown of society, that gold's value will
be minimal. Food and tools to get food will have far more value than
a pretty metal that is too soft to make tools to get food.

I have heard it said in that total breakdown .22rf ammo will be the
new gold. You can feed your family with a .22 and not attract much
attention to yourself. I could tell you how to make it virtually
silent ... but that would be illegal.

Telling someone how to make a suppressor is not illegal - heck, there are
examples all over the internet. You can even BUY a legal suppressor (ATF
transfer tax of $5.00 applies). What's not kosher is to MAKE your own.
