Survival and Emergency Preparedness

I admit this is any area I'm not at all well versed in. PIcs would be great. Standing on the outside looking in my first impression is that it has value in that you've done it yourself and know how to do it. That's kinda cool. I do not recall ever taking pictures other than when finished and I am k...

So, not really something I chat about a lot but from time to time I get in the mood to assemble a p 8 0 glock from parts and what have ya. This last winter I kinda went on a try and use up all the spare parts of different things, traded off some parts got enough parts to put a few things together. S...

My personal opinion is that most Mutual assistance groups are working now harder than before about shoring up the areas they know they are needing work. How would you describe the physical health of the members? In shape or overweight? As I age it is more and more difficult to stay in shape. If I g...

One issue I can see is sugar to kick off the fermentation after things become scarce. One work around it fruit. Prison and jail inmates use the fruit off their meal trays along with the bread in a trash bag in a dark corner under a bunk. They call this foul concoction 'Buck' and it is potent enough...

Sold 2 of my PPQs Bought a... Yeah a few more than I was thinking I wanted.

My personal opinion is that most Mutual assistance groups are working now harder than before about shoring up the areas they know they are needing work. They are just not advertising it everywhere. I have seen a few people working on communications and also looking at the Baltics VS what we just did...

For the stacking of Alcohol, I recommend getting the Costco Vodka for 13 bucks for a half gallon stack it in the back for storage and not worry about it. Everclear and a few of the other high proof spirits are good to have for your own stash as well, The small singles also are great to have if you h...

Odd question for those that are here. Anyone considering going the path of Expat? I have been considering it more and more as time rolls, by. Recently Divorced (In the last 5 years), Not much other than finishing up a few years (about 10 give or take) where I am working until I am looking at the li...

Yeah, you can live cheaper in third world countries but you give up a lot of freedoms we take for granted here. Not to mention the language barrier always keeps you as an outsider even if you do learn it. IMO, rural America is a different country and there are plenty of places in the US where you c...

Where are they affordable. The ones I've looked at are danged expensive. Give your local area a bit of time to calm down after the storm and I am willing to bet the prices will be back to normal in around 6 months. Affordable is one of those things you have to weigh out. Do you want to be in the da...
