They can try.
I know a guy. He has a machine shop. I happen to have blueprints, and he's the type of guy that would say something like "you raise cattle, don't you? I need a side of beef. You need a gun. We can't buy either at a store with this blasted CBDC, but I think we can reach an understanding."
Ammo? I can make my own from scratch, and you can, too, with a little instruction. I can mold the bullets, create the powder and the primers from empty beer cans and some commonly available powders that when combined become 'splodey stuff. I'm a one-stop mayhem shop.
And I'm not the only one around.
