There are those hoarding toilet paper out of fear these past nine COVID months, and others buying guns for similar panic reasons. I know you are a long-time gun-owner, Mike, but I suspect your need for toilet paper will be greater than your need to defend hearth and home with a firearm. But still you should buy a shotgun. Much cheaper than similar rifles, and much better than a handgun for short-range home defense. Double ought buckshot at close range is a lot of lead downrange at a target. Another gun for your collection. What is the downside? Enjoyed the read and look forward to the next one...

In reviewing this and considering a few of the legal ramifications, I've decided against a shotgun and am satisfied with the availability of hand tools at my disposal.

This was like Mencken with a flair for demotic expression. Superb.
