Letter From Pat Cascio: Ammunition Shortage in Israel

Jim:
I just heard from my long-time friend, Gene Sockut, who lives in Israel. Gene was the chief firearms instructor for the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) for 26 years. Even though he’s now in his mid-70s, he’s still very active – he’s a sniper/sniper instructor with the Israel Border Police, and has written several books, and videos and is a much in demand speaker on security matters in Israel. So Gene e-mailed me this morning, and he mentioned they are experiencing ammo shortages in Israel, much like we have here, and when you can find ammo there, it is double and triple the usual price. So, things are bad all over… Make It Count, – Pat Cascio (SurvivalBlog’s Field Gear Editor)
