    If you ever see one anywhere for under 1200 with that stamp, pick it up.

    Yeah that's not from the Polytech factory, still a decent gun.
    The 386 stampers are running between 1600-1900 in good shape. I got mine for 895 a few years back.

    Don't panic (at least not yet). The high (40%) mortality rate for H7N9 flu is based on those who were sick enough to go to the hospital. It is almost certain that many less serious cases never came to medical attention. A large number of people could get the infection even if the only spread was chickens to humans.

    A flu pandemic is very likely to occur at some time in the future whether of H7N9 or other flu. The Spanish flu of 1917-19 may have killed as much as 5%of world population.

    The Plague of 1346-53 is estimated to have killed about 1/3 of the population of Europe (some estimates are even higher). It actually started in Asia and spread west along trade routes. It wasn't a global pandemic, Africa and the New World were not affected.

    Neither of these epidemics cased the breakdown of society. The plague did profoundly affect Europe by decreasing population density. Less population for the same land area led to (relative) labor shortage and thus higher wages and the eventual end of serfdom in western Europe.

    I'm thinking there's scientists out there with too much time on their hands perhaps, and they start to screw around with "experiments", like cloning for instance, some things should be left the he** alone.

    A mans rifles is a mans life, personal belongings stop matter in a civil revolt. You want a weapon that will provide you with reliability and accuracy. The 386 I have is my #1 reliable gun of all time. I've never had a jam and I've ran thousands of rounds through it.
    I have a Vulcan arms H91, it's a .308. For distance I'm sticking with my Savage .338 Lapua.

    Up in my grill? I have PPS-43C for that.

    Prepared.

    I have two, one is 7.62x25 the other is a Custom project I had done, it was converted for .40 cal rounds. Got (3) 25 round magazines made for it, extended the barell a few inches (had to, SBR laws are ****) and had a factory new stock slapped onto it.
