I did all my gear and armory preps early 2020 prior to Covid pricing and supply chain follies. Been watching folks scramble to get it together this year and I get to practice with what Ive already been prepared with. I was actually looking through my closet in 2023 seeing my helmet and armor and laughing at myself wondering why tf I thought that was needed. Then in November last year it all hit me again and I understood how/why I needed it. Its funny how in times of peace its easy to forget the years in chaos. Here we are again but even worse.
