Mistake 4: Prepping Too Much Weaponry and Ammunition

The over-reliance on weapons as opposed to survival tools is probably the most common catastrophic mistake that preppers make. This is partially a result of the pop-culture surrounding preppers. A lot of people get into prepping because they have an idealized mental image of what survival is like and, thus, prepare their storage cache as if they were going to personally defend their city from an invading army. Television shows and websites often show pictures of people with rooms full of ammunition and weaponry and have interviews with preppers talking about how safe they will be in the event of some sort of disaster.

In reality, preparing ammunition and weaponry is not as complicated as it is made out to be. A good hunting rifle, a shotgun, and a handgun is all that is really necessary. The shotgun will primarily play a role in defense. The rifle can be used for hunting and for protecting the home (and yourself) from any threats that are farther away. A good handgun has a myriad of uses and it probably the most essential of the three. A few boxes of ammunition for each and a good cleaning kit will suffice. The idea that interlopers will be everywhere during a disaster or that the house will need to be defended from hundreds of armed bandits or huge groups of people is mostly fantasy. Even if it wasn't, it is universally a better idea to cut and run than to stay and fight. Life is always going to trump pride in a potential combat situation.

A prepper would be doing themselves a disservice by spending all of their money on weaponry and ammunition and neglecting food, survival bags, tools, and knowledge. A gun is not going to stop a person from starving to death. Extra bullets are not going to be carried instead of extra food, useful tools, or medical supplies. It would pay to stock a bit of weaponry and ammunition and to leave the rest to the warmongers.
