Look, I’m not going to insult your intelligence…
I realize that you can’t “machete-chop a bullet”, and of course firearms are a must-have weapon for personal protection after a wide-scale crisis or “collapse” has overwhelmed police and military- and YOU are the only one protecting yourself and your loved ones from the gangs, looters, beggars, and thieves who will all be fighting for whatever resources are left in your area.
But ALL guns have their limitations – and here’s where the machete beats them hands-down…
during times I have lots of reasons for why the machete beats out firearms in your ultimate survival weapons plan.
For example…
Proven Lethality – It’s been estimated that about 600,000 people were killed with machetes during the genocidal Rwandan war in the 1990s. Essentially, the machete is a short sword – and very deadly in the right hands.
Silent Killer – Your goal in a collapse is to remain undetected and people are naturally attracted to gunfire. If you ever have to fire a shot in defense, police and military will quickly come running to possibly detain you and/or confiscate your weapon. Hungry civilians may think you bagged a deer and will be seeking food. Either way, you just blew your cover. But a machete offers silent, lethal protection.
No Ammo… No Re-loading – Any soldier will tell you that in a real battlefield firefight, your biggest concern is running out of ammo. Face it, you can only carry so much and when you’ve unloaded your last round, your AR-15 is basically a giant paperweight. Machetes don’t run out of ammo and it’s likely that most people you’ll be forced to defend against will have melee weapons anyway (like knives, bats, tire irons, shovels, axes, etc.) The machete has a convincing advantage over all of these.
We’ve seen it time and time again… when faced with a lack of supplies and security due to a wide-scale disaster or infrastructure “collapse”, citizens will beg, borrow, or steal – potentially by force – for their own survival!
As a freedom-loving citizen – you have a right to own and use a firearm to defend ourselves and those we love from the “wolves” or our society – but you need a “back-up” – and one battle–proven weapon beats them all…
