trailboss I like your style. For all unwanted visitors I say My dog Bronson, would love a new chew toy while I decided which gun I’d like to use.

Here's the top of my dresser. I'm ashamed to show pics of the drawers and the inside of my closet.😶 Looking great and here, you should have no shame. Prepare for someone here to ask how much you're willing to sell for. Not naming any names but if you know, you know. lol The pipes dedicated to each blend may not like that idea.😂

If someone is so stupid as to think that they can breach my home for anything....their relatives will soon mourn that they failed victim selection 101. During the daytime, they will face Hornady Tap in .556...if they are lucky, it will be 9mm. Nightime up the stairs, results in a field of fire from 12 Gauge from me, and M1 carbine from the Mrs. It would be a really bad decision...on the bright side, we would get new carpet! I'll make sure I knock first.

So if the tobacapocalypse doesn't occur, just suppose - then the cellaring would be primarily for aging, and the ability ride through price changes.
I am a little envious, just from the point of view of convenience. And the feeling of tobacco security.
Its a new world. And better to be prepared.

Rule #1 of home invasion is, assume the other guy came prepared. Rule #2 is gtfo.
Tobacco is just tobacco. I can replace it.

But you better believe I set aside a few pounds of 965. Just in case. Even if I'm right about Dunhill tobaccos sticking around, having some extra 965 won't hurt me.

My tobacco stash is the least of my concerns. GTFO is never an option, my home is my castle....if someone is so irrational as to think that invading my home is a rational decision, I will rationally usher them into hell.

It is good to see so many pictures with Tobacco that I once owned (Not saying I am generous but y'all might need your heads examined or your bank accts locked). I will try to get a pic up this week.

Bronson is most majestic, please in the interest of keeping him healthy load jacketed ammo, wouldn't want him to develop lead poisoning while disposing of evidence.

The 40th anniversary train passed me by, I never bought any..... One seasoned piper told me that it was the pinnacle of Mike's career...he sure went out on a good note. It is sad to see that what is in the pipeline is all that is left, but I don't doubt that some people are sitting on cases of it.

I'd much prefer to be under estimated if things get to an inevitable point. Menacing from get go does work in a lot of circumstances.

I own a Sig P238 Equinox, not only is it a Pistol I’ve had many compliments on, but in the right hands it’s an extremely accurate weapon. I’ve fired 2,500 plus rounds and no hang ups or jams. I like that the pistol build is based on the 1911. I still practice field stripping blindfolded, when the day comes I can no longer do this is the day I no longer carry.....which will never happen.....practice.....practice......practice!!!

Criminals typically look for the easy marks, my son in law is a deputy warden, one of my best friends is a homicide detective, over the course of the years interviewing many criminals, they have came to the same conclusion...the thugs want to avoid getting shot themselves and are not going to pick a fight with someone they think is armed.
A good example was in the Waffle House some years back... they cased the joint, saw open carriers and hightailed it out. I typically carry concealed... “conventional wisdom” in the minds of many gun owners is that if you open carry you are marked for death... pure rubbish, if you Google stories of open carriers being attacked, it is extremely rare. People presumed to not be carrying are much more likely to be attacked.

Here is my meager "cellar". I haven't found what I really want to buy in bulk yet, although I have some ideas. So keep in mind that I've been smoking only roughly a year and each and every jar and tin in here is something different, except for 2 jars of McClelland 40th anniversary!

No such thing as meager when it comes to a cellar. Very good start. That's more tobacco then a lot of old timers keep on hand.
