250,000 rounds?!? Wtf? I guarantee this dude has an online presence where you can find more evidence of the plan. 60 year old mush brains don't hide online very well.

Even if I combined all my extended family, close friends, my in-laws, my friend's pepper dad, AND every armed leftist I know into one stockpile, I wouldn't come close to 250k.

This dude was his own logistics depot.

My guess is dude was planning for the "civil war" and got bored or something. A fucking grenade launcher?!? It didn't say which one but I'm guessing a thumper or M203 which are often sold as "flare guns" at gun shows. It's so fucking stupid that that's a thing.
