I can now understand his perspective. I was born in Arizona so I'm familar with that type of environment. Often times you are a long way from potential help or back up. I can remember Bill Jordan and others speak of the situations that arose out in the middle of nowhere. I would also equate this to highway Troopers in many states where you can find yourself on the interstate a loooong way from anywhere or any back up.
And if I were in similar circumstances I would want all the ammo I could get as well. And more to the point, the best long gun I could get.
