It is Saturday morning at 5AM and the event is major. You woke up early because of the dogs barking.
Doesn't matter what the event is, but come Monday, no one is going to work and by then the stores will not have much to purchase because of panic buying.
Everyone does a quick inventory and you have enough food and supplies for 3 weeks for all 5 adults.
The guns you own are a 22 rifle and pistol with 500 rounds, a 12 gauge shotgun with 300 shells and a 9 mm pistol with 300 rounds.
