Even though potassium nitrate can be challenging to make, if you follow the “French method” you should be able to make it work. With just a few key ingredients you can create a mixture to create gunpowder that'll later help you stockpile ammo when you need it the most. Luckily there are other methods as well to make gunpowder too, so keep reading.
Your most challenging obstacle will be finding the potassium nitrate. The only natural source of this material can be found in bat guano, and I’m willing to bet that you won’t have an easy time finding that. You’ll have to make your own.
Traditionally this was done by what’s called the “French method.” You have to mix urine, manure, and straw together. Periodically, more urine is added and mixed over and over again over the course of several months to a year. Then water is poured through the mixture and filtered through wood ash, causing potassium nitrate crystals to appear, where they can then be separated.
Next, learn about a more modern method to creating gun power that involves a metal drum. This method may be preferable depending on what you can create the quickest (and not to mention what ingredients you decide to stockpile ahead of time) for when SHTF.
