Not to brag, but I saw it coming at least ten years before, and bought everything I needed at a fair price. As Bob Dylan sang, "you don't have to be a weatherman, to know how the wind blows."

Great posts! I would just add the following: Don't forget to include "luxuries", like coffee, tea, and booze. If you smoke, your smokes are essential medications. Try to think about what skills you can offer someone who kindly gives you refuge. Try to give something back. Pack a Bible.

Actually, "the gun that won the West" was most likely a surplus Civil War rifle, sold at bargain basement price by a cash hungry U.S. Government to a cash-poor sodbuster. That turd who wrote "Armed America", cited evidence from a San Francisco courthouse that burned down decades before he did...

I am no expert on sharpening, but I believe that the NUMBER ONE REASON that neophyte bladesmen wind up wearing out their blades, is that they do NOT understand the proper use of the sharpening steel to "touch up" a blade, as needed. After mastering this skill, I found that it was RARELY...

Better to carry at funerals, than to be carried at funerals.

There was a time when I believed that there was a place for 9mm or .45 ACP carbines, but my current opinion is that if you are not upgrading all the wat to 5.56 mm or 7.62 mm, then you are just short stroking the mule.

This is a really stupid question. Frankly, I don't get it. If you want to carry, and can carry legally, then do so. If not, do not. What am I missing here?

Huh? Wah? Why is this even posted? If I don't need to carry, then I will not. (Otherwise, what is the question?) I am confused.

You know, I have not even taken the trouble to read any previous posts, Just back off, and call in the air strike.

Shoot for the boombox. Without music, they lose the will to fight.

Way back in basic, one of my training tac's was a Special Forces E - 7 with several tours in Vietnam. He told be it was a good idea to have your weapon tied to you, because you might get grenaded, mortared, and disoriented. This is so when you came to or recovered, your weapon was not lost...

Also, remember the "potato gun"? Actually, this cast metal POS would work with any tuber, I mainly used potatos and carrott ammo to torture, Gretchen, (a female near seat mate) in the first grade, Now I wish I had taken a more skilled approach to Gretchen. If so, I...

I remember the "Fanner 50" , which had better build quality than any current Keltec, plus a neat plastic replica of the Sharps carbine.

Well, I GUESS there were some! Though, must were muskets. This from Texas Online LA VILLITA EARTHWORKS. This archeological site is in downtown San Antonio at the corner of South Alamo and East Nueva streets, where the Fairmount Hotel stands. It is thought to be the basal part of an...

For INFORMATION puposes only! For decades there have been some simple plans for a home workshop submachinegun, floating about. I think the magazines and the ammo would be a lot tougher. This is, of course, illegal without right paperwork.

I am very informed on the Alamo, and have never heard that. But, it's hard to prove the negative. I have read that the Mexicans used surplus British Brown Bess muskets.

Hokay, I'm sure I am spelling it wrong. But a close relative is in the hospital dealing with this. He is going to do five days on IV antibiotics, and then the docs will decide whether to do surgery. Any comments from anybody who has, been there, done that, got the tshirt...

I don't live there, but it should be some great dove hunting.

II think that the legal weirdness, Has somehow, Taken priority over the reality based weirdness. That is a sure path to getting DRT. And forcing Mutual of Omaha’s, “Wild Kingdom”, To actually cut a policy payoff check.
