Short of Throwing stones from your backyard what forms of Gathering The means to support your nutrition have you stockpiled? There are hundreds if not thousands of ways to obtain Game and I have been wondering if having just a Firearm is enough. When Ammunition Runs out What do you have left?

When I think long and hard about the subject a long long list of items obtainable in stores comes up but then I start thinking of more basic methods such as a Throwing stick. When Going out On a camping trip or hike I understand that its impractical to bring Things such as the throwing stick with you when you can make one easily but when surviving out of your own house would it be such a bad idea to have say a Five gallon bucket filled with prepared methods? Rat Traps, Slingshot, Marbles, Snares, Arrows/Arrow making supplies, Fishing Spears, Rod and tackle, Live Pest Traps, Ball barrings, Nets,.....Uhh...Ball-peen Hammers?...Well you get the point.

When modern Ammunition Runs out what will you have on hand to replace it? Would it be crazy to go as far as say, Purchase a Muzzle loading riffle and learning how to Make Lead Ball's and Gunpowder? I find people tend to forget that without modern factory equipment many of the things we rely on will run out quick in the worst case Emergencies. Modern Ammunition cannot be made without Modern machinery yet a ball of lead can be made with a home made smelter and a mold even a more accurate miniball.
