Mark Koernke delivered a comprehensive episode focused on firearms maintenance and preparedness, emphasizing the critical importance of proper weapon care for operational readiness. He discussed cleaning kits (Eastern European surplus models, HK91 kits), lubricants (Gibbs brand, Lubra Plate, military-spec oils), solvents for corrosive ammunition, and the necessity of maintaining separate cleaning kits for each firearm. Koernke addressed common weapon failures (failure to extract, failure to feed) as primarily resulting from inadequate cleaning rather than mechanical defects, and provided detailed guidance on disassembly, cosmoline removal, and proper maintenance procedures. He referenced military manuals, recommended Heritage Gun Books for detailed armorers' guides, and emphasized the strategic importance of spare parts, ammunition, and distributed supply caches. The episode concluded with discussion of the 2006 Lebanon conflict as a case study in how proper maintenance, tactical dispersion, and forward supply enabled Hezbollah to defeat a technologically superior Israeli force.
I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat, and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free. and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. and your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom bright as I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. Or even now as tyrants trampled each god-given right We only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside, you dream while you were asleep And wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Dill the land of the free Gentlemen, this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Cornky one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines and occupied territories West Southwest East and ladies and gentlemen you were listening to us on we the people radio network W T P R N dot com that's we the people radio network W T P R N dot com and we're on Liberty Tree Radio for MG dot com also on a M&M microstations CV base stations and alternate technologies both East and the Now, I'm going to ask you again to do this because people deep support is critical. The bad guys figure they have a very simple formula. They know that your weapons are in theory going to run so long, most of you have not done maintenance on your firearms or don't know how. The assumption there is a weapon will run anywhere from one to two years, but the window of that two-year window is all they have to worry about and there's a progressive degradation in support. Week after week, they after day that progressively would debilitate or deactivate most of the arms in theory that are in our hands. We all know better than that because by the way I was taught when I was long before I was in the military but when I was in the military that prior proper fighting prevents piss poor performance and that includes basic maintenance. Now that's why you have a cleaning kit. That's why when you are first thing you do when you stop if you have a weapon in your hands and you're responsible for it is the weapon has maintenance done first and you are second. unless there's something absolutely critical even there. Your weapon is why you are in the field. Without your firearm, you are useless. Well, at least you become a burden to all the other men who do have an arm, especially in a situation where you're supposed to be fighting. So... Here's one of the things that we're going to look at. The main military supply has cleaning kits. 30 caliber, there are several different types. There's the Eastern European coffee cans, like cigar can type. They're cool, they're very well engineered, and they're compact and easy to carry. There's also a bagged pouch model, also Eastern Bloc, mostly East German. They're very well made and they have all the little parts, tools, and pieces that you need for doing all of the maintenance and breakdown on the AK-47 of the SKS rifle. I suggest you get one for every firearm that you have. Number three. There are HK91 Clean Kits. These are West German, they're green, they were top of, these things were top dollar. Both of these were, by the way, all of them I'm talking about. But HK stuff, guys, goes for outrageous prices. Don't think so. Ask anybody who's been collecting for years. Now, for a change for a little while, there's surplus and there's a bunch available. The kits are very clean, they're very desirable, they're very easy to use, they're user-friendly. and they're cheap. All of these items I'm talking about are cheap. No, you don't want one cleaning kit for all the weapons you have or two. Wrong. You need a cleaning kit for every firearm that you own and it should be with the weapons kit. In other words, if you've got spare parts or ammunition, you should make up a small military cleaning kit for every firearm that you have. Why? Because it is small. There's no excuse not to have it. They're cheap right now. They're readily available. More is better. There's a reason. A lot of you are thinking of issuing out arms to family members or whoever. Well, are you telling me when you're done at the end of the day or when you're sitting there in one place that you're going to be the only person cleaning firearms? If that's the case, you're going to be awfully darn busy. Okay. Excuse me. I think you better think. You know, by the way, give me my spaceship back too. Also, men in black. Anyway, the point is... In that way, when the time comes, you're going to be able to effectively keep your force in the field for a longer period of time working at top performance levels. Now, that's the cleaning kit issue. We've got to tie that in. Another thing are lubricants, what's called POL, petroleum oil and lubricant products. Hey, we all know about the cost of those right now, don't we? Have you all went out to the gas pump and seen what the price of a gallon of gas is right now? Well, it's also reflected in all other refined oil products. So this includes the fact that you have to have certain oils or you should have certain lubricants for all of your firearms. Some are specialized. And I'm going to mention these after this next break, a couple of different ones that we can be looking at and we should turn to because they're premium and optimal. They provide the best protection. But remember, If all you could afford to do is use light and medium oils, in other words, sewing machine oil is available on the shelf and you could even get it in some of the dollar stores. Well, I'll tell you what, that's a nice little can. It stores well. You can buy a bunch of them and put them on the shelf. I would do that for every firearm you got. Why? Because lubricated, well lubricants first of all serve one purpose. They create a sealing surface, a material that permeates the crystalline structure of the metal and prevents oxygen from making contact with the basic components of the firearm. This eliminates or helps to prevent an issue called oxidation. Otherwise with iron you call it rough. Now, we can do this with surface materials that are designed to create a barrier, and we do anyway. We call it bluing, it can be parkarizing, it can be whatever. But still, even that, that's a step one preservative. The step two is what is called the perishable layer, or the transfer layer, will be a material that's going to sloth off over a period of time, either from usage or simply gravity. Okay? That's where your lubricants come in. Now there are many other different types of lubricants, dry lubes, etc. But oil is cheap, oil is plentiful, but it does require something. It's called W-R-K, work on your part. You've got to apply it. So, we have to have lubricants, we also have to have stripping agents because, well that's right, we're going bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, ching. We drop the mag, we put another one in, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, We drop the mag, we put another one in. Now, after we've used our weapon for a little bit, we have been using a combustion system. This creates a material called carbon. Carbon, in whatever form, either with mercuric primers, it becomes a corrosive carbon problem, okay, a filament material that makes contact with your metal and can pit it because of corrosive issues. In other words, it actually eats into the metal if you're not careful. You leave it long enough. Otherwise, carbon is not good for operating the weapon because what happens is it builds up. Have you ever had a fireplace where you've had a chimney and you leave too much creosote in it? You know, that's a form of carbon element. Leave it in there long enough, two things are going to happen. Either gunks it up to the point where you have no airflow. This is very bad. Your fire doesn't burn as well. Through a fireplace, you can also have a creosote fire, and it's really embarrassing. With a firearm, this carbon builds up and it's a mimic. It has a tendency to look like what surface material your firearm has for a finish. Parkerizing, dark blueing, whatever. Carbon will build up in corners, crevices, and along trail lines where there's operating contact services with a firearm. This is why a lot of people will use a weapon for a while and they can understand why after a whole they've been out to the range five or six times, that machine isn't working as well. Well, perhaps it's because you haven't cleaned it and this is truly the case with most firearms I've bought for 50 or 60 dollars that somebody else bought for 110 or 120 or 130 like some automatic 22s and one car beans They used to buy them all day for 65 dollars because somebody would say oh things just not working right. Oh, really? What's it not doing? Well, I just won't be Well, what I'd do is I'd take that carbine apart and I'd look underneath at the gas system and lo and behold, it'd look like the inside of that chimney I was talking about. There'd be more carbon there than there was working metal, okay? Now I'd take a bore cleaner and I'd take very patiently a regular toothbrush and I would clean, clean, clean, clean, clean. And it's amazing, I'd put that weapon back together once it was properly lubricated and it would run like a Singer sewing machine. Chick, chick, ping, okay? Well, the same is true with all your firearms. I do not care if it is a manually operated pump shotgun. I do not care if it is a double barrel shotgun. A semi-automatic .22, a bolt-action .22, a bolt-action .30-06, a semi-automatic .30-06, an M1 rifle, and .30-06, of course, an M1 carbine, your AR-15, your AK-47, which is very forgiving. Still needs to be cleaned because unlike the peasants of the east that were carrying the AK We are men of the West we have working minds and we're knowledgeable of mechanics We can disassemble our firearms We can clean them put them back together and we will make them run better and we will ensure that they function to save our lives That's why you need a clean kit. Okay. Now another thing tied in with that our rags You will find, any of you have been in the military, you know how hard it is to try and find rags when you need them? Oh God, you're fighting over every little piece of cloth you can get your hands on, people. Now, in the new military, maybe there's something's changed a little because they spent money on certain things, but I don't think so. So, with that being the case for your private operations, watch for anything and everything in the way of debris where cloth has been ripped or torn. Save it, put it off to the side, and cut it up now for rags. Now why do I say cut it up now? Well because you can sit in front of the television. Mark loves to do this. People like to watch training videos. They like to watch action movies. They want to watch whatever. Well, okay, how about multitasking here? Take your big bag of rags. You threw them all in the laundry machine. They're old, they're old, let's see, sweatpants. They're old t-shirts. They're old underpants. They're clean now, don't worry about it. Anyway, all these other things like old socks. Break out Mr. Scissors or go to the dollar store. I love the dollar store. The Chai-Com stuff we can use to kill more of our enemy. You know, I use especially the barbie Chinese anyway. This is a good thing. Grab your dollar store pair of scissors. Sit down while you're watching TV and sit there and snip away and get all the excess stuff off that's going to be in the way. Save the buttons. Put them in a cup off to the side. uh... cut off all the parts and pieces might be useful there for other things you never know what you find there uh... even the zippers save those get them out of the way and have your eggs all squared away and start packing them in bundles This way everything takes up less space. You know exactly what it is separate your even your nylon people sing nylon Hey nylon rags are good for stripping gunk and junk. Let's say you got a weapon that you pull that's got cosmoline on it I got some really good cotton rags. They're really good Well, why am I gonna waste them when I know I've got a lot of heavy debris I got to get off first you take your junk nylon rags and use those that know nylon shirts and stuff like that to scrape off not scrape, but you're doing it really because you're using nylon you You sloth off most of the heavy stuff. Now you take your solvent, you break down and use more of your solvent with your nice cotton rags to get a better job done without wasting the cotton rags that you're going to be insuring supply of. Now, beyond the rags, beyond the cleaning kits, you've got to have the solvents and the lubricants. We're going to give you some solutions. We're heading towards break here in a second. So I'm going to give you some contact numbers. But in the meantime, remember that even if all you could do is sewing machine oil and even SAE 30 to have another lubricant and plain old grease, or $1.99 at the hardware or over at the auto shop, that's better than no lubricant at all. The only thing is using it sparingly. Improvise, adapt, overcome. One nice thing about most of the stuff that's oil that's being stored right now, Any nice plastic containers that don't rot, that don't break down, in fact, find a law that gotta protect that oil so that it doesn't lose out on ya. Well that means it's really great for a what about underground caching so it can be put away and you don't have to worry about it getting all over ya or all over your goodies. I'll keep that in mind too. We're gonna go to break here. It's weapons Wednesday. We're preparing our weapons for combat. We wanna make sure they continue to function to keep us alive. We the People Radio Network, WTPRN, we'll be back in three minutes. Greetings, I am Dr. Buell Von Schite with the White Paper Comicals. Mr. Steve Schenck with this fearless radio program is correct when he says the solution to our difficult times is to store food and get healthy. My comrades and I and the media don't want you to panic. We, unlike fearless radio, try not to tell you about the food control legislation. Hurricane Katrina, the American famine, families unable to buy food. If we told you that solutions are all Z's problems, is food, you'd panic and run out and buy a food before it disappeared, or you couldn't afford it. You'd completely mess up the perfect strategy for population control, and they'd kick us out of the survivors club. You are a sissy chicken if you call JMS eFoodsDirect.com and order food.

Be the resistance. Tell your friends about BraveNewBookstore.com. Ladies and gentlemen, we are back. This is the Intel Report Live. That's Poker Face at PokerFace.com, www.PokerFace.com. Real quick here, I know a lot of guys are going to talk about break free and everything else, and whatever you're using, that is a wonderful thing, and I hope you continue to use it. However, we've been using it for quite a few years for sealing up and for working parts, especially for surface parts. A little thing called Gibbs. It's Gibbs brand, G-I-B-B-S. That's their trademark, G-I-B-B-S. The website is www.gibsbrand.com. And Gibbs brand is in capitals. www.gibbsbrand.com. Now, the cool thing about this, by the way, at the little top, it says trucker, farmer, guns, and mechanics formula. I'm friendly, like it. But anyway. The point is that the way they advertise this, if you've been on a gun show, is they actually treat the firearm with it. They usually do like a little 25 automatic or a little starter pistol, coat it with the Gibbs inside and out, and then you'll see it. They've got a little bubbling water tank there, and they've got the pistol inside there sitting in the water tank, and you can pull it out if you want to and look at it, and you find that it's not rusting, it's not breaking down, it's not doing anything but staring at you. And as the guy pointed out that for years Dave Hoffman, he had one of these on as an example, he'd been using the same little automatic for two years nonstop putting it in the water like that. And of course the only thing we treated it with was the with Gibbs. Now this is a permeating oil. So first of all, you unload all your magazines, you clean everything up, you clean the weapon completely, you make sure you break down and get all the carbon out of the way. Then you spray this and spread it over with a light little cotton patch to make sure that everything's covered inside and out. And then make sure there's no excess. Let it sit for a little bit. Now remember, you don't want to get this on the ammunition. This is a permeating lubricant. It will probably get past that little seal between the bullet and the case. So another basic rule is we never lubricate ammunition to begin with. Yes, it will be pretty. The brass will be pretty. The copper will be pretty, but when you pull the trigger, things will not be pretty at all because there will be no ticking or washing. You will hear the click, but you probably won't hear a kaboom. The reason for that is it will permeate through the bullet, can contaminate the powder, and it could, any lubricant, I don't care what it is, and it will contaminate the primer from the primer pocket end because the lubricant will go in and deactivate your primer filament. So we don't lubricate, do not, do not, do not ever lubricate ammunition. If you have to wipe it down, you use a dry cloth, you clean the stuff off, again, break out a couple of those latex gloves, put them on, there's 100 of them in a pack from the dollar store, and get a nice white cloth and wipe down your ammunition. You should do this every once in a while anyway with your combat load, just in case, because what happens, stuff sits in the magazines, gets a little damp, a little wet, you wiped off the mags, but you forgot to wipe out the inside of the mags and the ammo. can be real green and nasty and low time if you're not careful so you got to keep you remember that but with this Gibbs here I'm going to give all the information on again www.GibbsBrand.com if you want to contact one of the sales reps it's Dave Hoffman he's located at 828 Huntington Drive, Owaso, Michigan 48867 again that's Dave Hoffman Huntington Drive Wausau, Michigan, 48867. And the phone number is 517-723-5792. Again, 517-723-5792. But just in case, www.gibbsbrand.com. You can find out more about the other products they have. Aerosol can permeates the metal nicely, does a good job, but we've used this on many firearms. Of course, it can be used for many, many other applications, and it is. But for firearms, it's a good solution. www.givesbrand.com So we got some information out there. Otherwise, remember, military lubricants and solvents were engineered and built for specific weapon systems. So if you look in your military manual, your FM's, for instance, the M1 Garand, it will mention a specific letter designated lubricant and solvent for use with that weapon. If you can find the specific type on the shelf, sometimes you got a good surplus store nearby, been around for probably half a century, they have a little bit of everything sitting in the back room and you're going to go, well, which one should I choose? Well, basic rule is this. Remember, certain lubricants were made based on the knowledge that certain powders were being used for that firearm. Many M1 rifles still have the possibility of utilizing corrosive ammunition. they were not going to throw the am away in world war two trust me we were trying to kill japanese german's you're going to clean your fire that's all there is to it young soldier but because of that we had a specific solvents to deal with into neutralize the corrosive you know element mercuric primary issue uh... from the weapon now they also leave today i would point this out you want that type of uh... solvent or some of the other uh... new commercial brands that are out there that are specifically designed to deal with this issue if you've got for instance a k ninety eight mouser lots of corrosive ammunition for that way around a three oh three british infield lots and lots of corrosive ammunition for that laying around what about the seven six two by fifty four all that's right there is corrosive ammunition out there for that too we don't want that pristine bore in that brand new rifle that you got that was made nineteen fifty four to start looking like that rusty sewer pipe we were talking about earlier or that chimney So because of that, oh yes, and 9mm and 7.62x25, that's corrosive out there too. So, gee, that old bore cleaner isn't such a bad idea after all. Now, there is also more modern cleaners that are available. There's a lot of Vietnam and post-Vietnam solvents and lubricants that are available. And I'm not saying to pass those up because, hey, guess what? Your government spent top dollar and put a gun to your head to make sure they had the tax money for that to buy it. So I guess we ought to get our benefit out of that too and pick it up when we can. And you will find that it can be in a number of different sized containers. Now, bigger is cheaper, but I'm going to recommend something right now. If you can, you want to break the containers down to smaller individual containers. Why? Something I said earlier about all your eggs in one basket. Remember, you want to spread stuff out to multiple containers. You want to say that a bullet passes through a cargo truck. Well, if it's one big container and those bullets pass through the bottom of that big container, you didn't catch it. And it's a 300 gallon bucket or something. You know, big tub. You lose everything inside all 300 gallons. If you have a 24 count case of ammunition, of a bore cleaner or of solvents or whatever kind, or if you have a 24 count case of say, lubricant and a bullet passes through that box but it hits the corner or the side, only the containers that the bullet passed through are you going to lose the solvent in. You might lose part but you won't lose all of it. So keep in mind that smaller sometimes is better when it comes to forward deployment. Now another thing is simply because of convenience you'll find that you can get better prices and you'll find stuff laying around in 48 count boxes, 120 count boxes. I've seen pretty much all of these. Another one is for instance some of the stuff was calibrated specifically for certain weapon systems. You've got Lubra plate. It was a specific grease designed for the M1 Grand but also specifically for use with the M14. It comes in a small what's called a pot that's designed to be stored in the buttstock of your firearm. It's about three quarters of an inch high. The diameter of the hole that's in the buttstock, that's a channel designed to hold your cleaning kit and a couple of these little pots. And there's usually 144 per box. This is an excellent lubricant. It doesn't go bad in the container. It's still sitting there looking at you. Just like it went into the container in 1954, 1964, 1974. And if you can get hold of a box of these things, it would be a very good idea and beneficial for your firearm. Okay? So this is another solution. I know there are several companies advertising these right now. The pot itself has a yellow cap, clear sides, and the lubricant has kind of a bronze-ish color to it. Very like a rich brown, bronze-ish color. Very rich, very, very good lubricant called Lubra Plate. We're going to be back in about three minutes, bottom of the hour. It's Weapons Wednesday.

And Ladies and gentlemen, we are back. This is the Intel Report Live and we, the people of Radio Network, WTPRN.com. We have, of course, a couple of solutions for you there, but Gibbs is one for the lubricants. Remember that basic maintenance on the weapon has to happen right away. It includes the idea that you keep, for instance, don't throw away any of your old toothbrushes. There's an example. Keeping a brush on hand, one of the first things you do if you stop, if you've got time and you've actually been moving with your firearms, tactically especially, You want to take that brush or a light utility brush and go over the outside of the firearm first before you do anything to open an action. That's hopefully a particular smart. Well, your machine, that one you're carrying your life depends upon. Okay, it will run, but again, I will say this, the AK-47 is a phenomenally forgiving firearm. That's why it's worked so well in third world countries where people just don't have a clue half the time how they're using the machine or how to use it properly. Now, it works fine if it's abused. It works exceptionally well if it's properly maintained. We want to pass these weapons down to our grandchildren. Grandchildren? Yeah, that's right, because we're going to have all the in-depth parts and support technology to go with the weapon. And that's one of the things that we have been discussing. Right now, if you have an AK-47 slash an AKM, AKS, remaining AK, guys, there are piles of stuff and things that right now are cheap, but aren't going to be cheap forever. Okay, it's like those 75 cent 8K 74 mags we've told everybody about over and over again. They aren't 75 cents a piece anymore. Now they're 15, 20, 25, 30 dollars. They were cheap for a while. Right now, Center Fire Systems, and I know, and also there are a lot of cool things, and yes, by the way, at mainmilitary.com. You got the numbers there so you know where to go, but you can go to their webpage and check them out. They've got goodies with regard to piles of stuff. You don't just buy one. The more you buy, the cheaper it gets. Now, before I go any further, I'll step back. Those little coffee can, the little cigar can type East German or European cleaning kits. Anybody who's ever taken those apart, they are an incredibly well designed cleaning kit. Everything is there, your pin tools, your screwdrivers. your jag for pulling through, you know, for doing your bore cleaning, the brushes are there, and inside the can, most people don't realize this, but you gotta turn upside down and kick it out of there, there's a little oil bottle that is engineered to the inside, actually beveled to the can that goes in. Beautiful, machine little piece of diddly bob that, you know, it's nothing fancy, but it kind of seems like it always fascinates you because somebody fought the system through. Take advantage of these things pick them up now while you can make sure that you've got them on your combat gear Buy spares remember at some point it's gonna wear out. Do you like it? Let's say that you just have two firms I'm gonna tell you right now if there's something you like in surplus and You want to keep using it for a long long time you better get extras now Not later Otherwise, that's right. Somebody else forgets that you got one for the guy that shows up later. But here's an example. You know, for instance, they've got a slant muzzle brake. This is CenterfireSystems.com. Slant muzzle brake, 10 for $10. These are the ones that thread on the end of the weapon. You're thinking, well, I got one. You ever been in the field, done some cleaning, been in a hurry, left a part off? Yeah, you had that other one. It's 25 miles back. You're in a truck going, eeee. Hey, Wade, where's my muzzle compensator on the end of... Of course, you may not have another in your pocket, but it'd be nice to have a little spares kit with all the perishables that can fall out. AK repair kit, okay, one gas piston, pistol grip, access pin, sleeves, one sear, sear guide, trigger and hammer. We're talking parts you can't afford to make. $9.99 for that whole package. You're talking all little piddly parts that you're gonna wear out on your weapon There's no excuse for the you having to make do or pay $20 for a single part later when for $9.99 you got every significant part that's gonna wear right there Another example of my favorite because it's got all kinds all these other little goodies got the cleaning kits got the broken shell extractor and it's got the dragon off Romanian dragon off butts $14.99 for the whole little package. It's got everything tied in with it that you need. I can go on and on, but the point is this. Go through the accessory packages, look to see what they have. One of them here has got 20 oil bottles, 20 access pins, 10 cleaning kits, 10 mag pouches, 10 leather slings, 10 blank adapters, 10 more brushes, 5 slant muzzle brakes, $49.99. Okay? The other one, which I would really recommend for a lot of you guys who have more than one AK, this is a good one. AK deal number three, 15 pieces. You've got five AK Romanian pistol grips, five AK gas pistons, and five AK two-cell 30-round mag pouches. Now the gimme is this. The five gas pistons are worth $12.99, but you get all the other stuff with five gas pistons for $12.99. Now the op rod, the gas piston on this rifle is like the op rod on the M1 rifle or on the M1 Garand. You want spare gas pistons because if and when one gets a little tired and it's not crisp enough anymore, guess what? You unscrew it, you take the new one, screw it in, and the other part, which still isn't completely shot, can be put off to the side in the spares inventory for somebody else who may have nothing. Or we need to put a rifle together from parts. I've mentioned this before, weapons get shot, weapons get blown up, weapons get damaged. If that's the case and when that happens, you pick all the parts up and everybody goes, well what do I do with that? It's broken. Because between three rifles I might make another one. And by the way, I bought these spare parts and you know what, my, given my armorer, the armorer sits here and goes, okay, nice receiver on this one. Okay, good barrel there. Deepen the barrel. Add the other parts. Wait a minute. I still need a new piston. Oh, wait a minute. That's right. Over here, I got it for $1.00 now, five years ago. Why, look at that. I've got another AK-47 to hand out Hugo. Here you go, Hugo. Let's go get ourselves some M4s and AKs and AK-74s. Okay. Now, away we go. See how that is? Again, prior proper flooding prevents piss poor performance and deep support and deep supply is what we're looking at here. However, you'll notice something. Mark didn't say pile this all up in one place. tactical dispersion is what will win the next war now i would like to go through and i'm for an hour actually couple hours and actually do a breakdown in the valuation like we did at this last meeting to a degree uh... last party on the beach about uh... what happened in lebanon with the israelis get their rumpus kicked now keep in mind that the israelis had everything from satellite technology down to the most modern Okay, the best they could offer. All the toys. Up against, you look at the order of battle, Hezbollah with light infantry and both light and medium anti-tank weapons. No master armor formations, no massed artillery, nothing heavy. They handed the Israelis their head on a platter. What happened? Well, it's because the men knew how to use their weapons and again, they were able to properly deploy and understand the threat. Deception was part of the process. Deep supply at the tactical level is what won. In other words, there wasn't any waiting for somebody like Cooley to show up with a backpack full of ammunition because the ammunition was already forward with the troops. It was already trusted that the troops were going to properly handle what they had available, and so it was put at the fighting level. Now they dispersed it according to their needs in preparation to defend their area of operation. They decimated the enemy. Oh, certainly some people say, oh, they got a terrible casualty, horrible here, horrible there, oh, I kissed my hind end. That's war, people, congratulations. The kicker is this. Even though they probably all signed their, you know, their death certificate, so to speak, in other words, they figured, well, we ain't gonna live to see the end of this, because they all were willing to fight to the last bullet, at the end when the Israelis had to retreat, the majority of them were still alive and breathing. They had a tremendous victory on their hands where they kicked Rumpus. You know what that does psychologically to a person? Not only did you do the job, but you did even better than expected. You figured you were going to do the job and kill the enemy, but you figured you might die in the process. In fact, you figured you were going to die in the process. Now imagine accepting death and turning around and finding the next day you're still alive and you win. Oh, tell me that isn't a high, okay? But to do that, you have to be dedicated and you have to be proficient. Now you do not have to be professional. All professional is if somebody gets paid. Mercenaries get paid, okay? Bad mercenaries get paid, good mercenaries get paid, and all the punky mercenaries in between. Okay, but we're militia. Militia are defending their homes, they're defending their families, we're defending our country. We are not invaders. We are defending a sword and shield against tyrant both within or without. Either way, that's your job. So all of these things we're bringing up, especially weapons maintenance, are crucial to victory. A lot of you may have a weapon that's not operating right now, the way it should. I'm going to address part of that issue with the next block and the last block. We're in our final break here, second hour of the Intel report. It is Weapons Wednesday. Let's make sure that our firearms are squared away. Make sure you know where they are and how they operate. We'll be back in about three minutes on We the People Radio Network. The super food for you and your family. Hemp has nutritional values that far exceed any known plant.

Everyone knows how the 9-11 disaster touched them directly. On May 11, 2008, every American citizen will begin the slow road to a national identity crisis. Every citizen young and old are facing the Real ID Federal mandate. After 5-11 this year, you will endure the indignities of TSA checkpoints at airports with demands for adequate IDs. Imagine one year from now being barred from entering a postal office or other federal buildings if you don't have your passport or Real ID. Since when have you ever needed a passport to fly from one city to the next in the US? If real ID prevails, you risk being cast as a terrorist if you can't provide an ID with a biometric face scan. Trusting Motor Vehicles authorities may be a thing of the past, but they put your personal information up for sale to those willing to buy your name, your address, your picture, or anything else ascribed to your driver's license. Your information will be funneled into an insecure centralized database. A hacker's and identity's thieves can prey on you and your information. Worst of all, the federal government demands that you and your state pay to implement Real ID. The multi-billion dollar implementation stands to double the cost of your local IDs. It may not stop there. This federal mandate may take from other social program funding like education, public arts, and other state funded programs. Digimark, L1 Technologies, Veritech, and other Department of Homeland Security contractors walk away with a huge paid contract. What will you have? They promise freedom through security. If a hacker can walk off with your virtual driver's license, are you really safe? The 511 campaign is here to support you and your state legislators in a move to block the progress of this unconstitutional act. Please add your voice and actions to stop Real ID in its tracks. Please join the first 511 campaign committee meeting Sunday, May 11th at 3 p.m. and brave new books to help organize in Austin, Texas. For more information on the 511 campaigns and the Real ID, please visit BeatTheChip.org. The Alex Jones broadcast live from 11 a.m. To 2 p.m. Central Monday through Friday right here on we the people Radio Network and ladies and gentlemen we are back This is the Intel report live last segment now We're gonna get down to another component here Why do you have weapons may not be working right? Although you've been shooting them for a while and just say every tenth round you get a failure to eject or you might get a failure to feed. Now failure to feed is a little different issue perhaps, but failure to extract or fail to cycle. is typically because the weapon is dirty. It can also be a weak spring, but that's not likely. It's not probably the case. What you have is a weapon that needs to be cleaned. Now, some people say, well, I went through and cleaned the chamber and everything. OK, you got a brand new weapon that just came out of strategic reserve storage from somewhere. It can be an SKS. It can be an AK-47. It can even be an FN FAL, or it can be, well, just about anything. It was a military arm, even a bolt gun. One of the things to remember is that they're trying to make sure they don't rust in place. That doesn't exactly bode well for the next guy who has to pick the weapon up if the thing is rusted solid. So usually as storage grease or if they're lucky, Cosmoline has been used to store the weapon. Well Cosmoline is very deceptive like carbon. And a lot of you may have cleaned around the chamber and you got most of the area around the bolt, but did you disassemble the weapon completely? Did you take the gas system off and clear out the gas system? Now I'm gonna warn you, what probably you're gonna find is that there's been storage grease at the very least that has worked in through the air, you know, the bleed off ports and all of the other spots in the lip, and because that's what it was supposed to do, or it's been cosmoleined inside, which they should have done, if they were thorough to make sure that it didn't rust from the inside out. You've got to clear all of that cosmolein off first. Now, if it's really heavily cosmoleined, I take a piece of cardboard or a plastic pallet and what you want to do is kind of scrape it off and get yourself a baby food jar or a gallon can and carefully scrape it off and scoop it into that can and save it. Why? Cosmoline ain't cheap people. I'm telling you right now it's a POL, petroleum oil and lubricant product. Now then we got to do the bore cleaner. Then we want to clean everything off thoroughly. We can wash it. That's another option. but we want to use bore cleaner we want to get everything off and get down the cracks the crevices get around the chamber because in those hidden spot you can't see you probably have to take some q-tips and get up in there and get in around the bolt cams or surface areas etcetera where it locks in debris located there and it's going to build up it's going to be the grease you can't it's going to be greasy can't see it now we've cleaned the weapon thoroughly we will be lubricated Most of you may have done the basic cleaning, but when you did, you may not have done the gas system, you may not have done other elements of the weapon that are out of sight, out of mind. I mentioned the M1 carbine, that's one of the most notorious. 22 caliber rifles, you have the same problem. Sometimes people use too heavy a lubricant, or they use a lubricant that is not conducive to the firearm, and it attracts dirt and carbon. Okay, this is another problem. What's going to happen is, well, have you ever seen this before in machines when you add too much gunky stuff and then there's other gritty stuff that gets in with it? Things kind of slow down. Well, that may be why your weapon was failing to extract and that may be why your weapon is failing to eject. Okay? So first of all, we want to make sure it's completely clean, but we also have to know how to do it. So here's the point. How many of you have the proper manuals for the firearm that you possess? Do you have the breakdown and instruction manuals for maintenance? Well, if you don't, here's one thing you can do. Go to pbn.4mg.com and we have copies of many of the different military manuals for like the NAGOT, the K98, the HK91, and recommended cleaning steps and procedures per different manuals that have been produced. You can get copies off the pbn.4mg.com site for some of the little ones. However, You need to do in-depth research on maintenance, and this includes knowing everything there is to know about your firearm. Not hearsay, not somebody said that somebody heard that somebody did. Instead, there are whole groups of people who were hired by whatever government made that weapon to figure out how to do it right. Why reinvent the wheel or try to come up with when you can first check to see what they're doing applies to that weapon, which it will, and then follow instructions accordingly. So go out of your way to try and find some of the different manuals that are out there for your weapon that you can have personal copies of or copy them off our site or whatever. The other thing is this. The NRA, for instance, used to do a great series of books that were basically weapons, maintenance, and breakdown. If you don't know how to disassemble it, you can't get to all the critical parts that need to be cleaned. And that's why your weapon's not necessarily ejecting or extracting when it should, or may not even be cycling properly. So you've got to know how to break it down. Well, get your pen and paper. I'm going to give you another contact point here. There's an excellent series of books. In fact, this is the name of the company. It's Heritage Gun Books. That's Heritage Gun Books. S.P. Publications, well I'm sorry, Ed, just correcting me on something here. VSP Publications PO Box, I'm sorry, PO Drawer, I always do that. PO Drawer, D-R-A-W-E-R, number 887. McCall, Idaho, 83638. Here's the phone number to call, 888-634-4104. I'm giving it twice more. 888. 634-4104 One more time, that's 888-634-4104 Give them a call, get hold of Joe Tell him you want to know what he has available in the way of maintenance and armorers, books, and videos. He's got a whole collection. The M1 rifle, the 1911A1, pistols and revolvers. Yes, these cost a few dollars, but not only do they tell you how to break the weapons down, but how to do inspections and maintenance. We're already hearing about these horror stories where the bat faggots and the other scum uh... attack this one national guard sergeant up in wisconsin and if the back bag it's charging which is ludicrous for a malfunctioning firearm while another cop had the exact same thing happened with a clock here recently shot his wife in the process when this year was too soft you know resident to a little too heavy and the thing went into for one in the full auto dump the whole mag and by the way the wife got in the way somewhere that was praying the room okay Got hit with one around in the stomach. Anyway, the point is, we don't want to see that happen. There's no excuse for it. Plus, working knowledge means you will preserve your firearms. You will also save your life. So one more time, 888-634-4104. This is an excellent series. Get a hold of Joe and Joe Rasco. He's up there in Idaho. Give him a call. When you do get a chance, you'll find out that the basic books you need on the weapons that you're going to be interested in, the volumes are there. Do the research. Find out what your weapons are supposed to be doing by performing proper maintenance, and you will find that they operate just like that proverbial sewing machine I was mentioning earlier. Chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, chick, Ed corrected me because I said pvn.4mg is at our Liberty Tree Radio Yahoo group. So you want to go to our Yahoo group site. We have several, many different manuals posted there. You can take them down off the site. Make hard copies. Don't leave them on disk. Think about this. Are you going to have a keyboard or a laptop sitting next to you when you're out in the middle of BFE? Okay, and you're sitting here trying to figure out. Well wait a minute. Maybe I should be reviewing my weapons parts and assemblies Oh, I'll wait a minute batteries low. I don't have a prayer on my screen my LCD screens cracked You know what maybe you'd be good to just have a plain old photocopy version or a plain printed version Make sure you have it in hard copy. It's useless otherwise Because when you need it you're not going to have it now the other thing is this make extra copies and do what we're doing create libraries Now here's the thing, if you've got a pre-deployment point where you've got weapons and equipment you're storing in, low lubricant, you need your database there too, in printed form. Why? Hold still, let me check. Oh, that's right, my organic computer is always hooked up. And I have these optical collectors, what we call them, eyeballs, and that allows the information, you know, written print to be passed through my ocular collectors down the optic nerve to that sophisticated organic computer and I can figure out what to do on my own. And that's why we want to make sure we have hard copies. They do not require batteries and again multiples to multiples to multiples. Better too much than not enough and there is no such thing as too much. We also have to teach other people. Okay so that's one of the things that needs to be done. And the shotgun news has the shotty are very good this week shock and it says the gunsmithing school that is a good point and so if you go to shock and news also DVDs on basic armory work thank you and that's something where if you got the shotgun news you can go check it out by the way you can get a copy of most you're like Myers or usually good magazine stores Pick a copy up, lots of information and contact points there. Most important is that you have the working knowledge on hand. But please, if you have a manual, duplicate it. Duplicate it to the best of your ability, making the cleanest copy you possibly can because somebody else is going to want to copy what you copied eventually and we'll all have the same basic knowledge. Now, Heritage Gun Books, one more time, 888-634-4104. and tell Joe you heard about him on the Intel report right here on Weapons Wednesday. Now, I hopefully we've given you, we've armed you, pardon the pun, it is Weapons Wednesday, we've armed you with the knowledge you need. Why did I concentrate on this? If your weapon does not function, you have become a useless tool. That's right, and then you will become a casualty, you're the next one we gotta carry out. Our combined arms team must work constantly together. Victory is our goal, God bless the Republic. Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We are on the march. Weapons Wednesday is over. We're going to have Mike Nester tomorrow with us. Stay tuned. Micro Effect Network. And of course We the People Radio Network. Many others are out there. You support these people. You want to make sure that they're on the air. We the People Radio Network. Wtprn.com. We'll be carrying on once I leave. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. And good night. Did you read this? Chicago just became the murder capital of America. I don't understand. It's been a felony to have a gun since 95. I thought that was supposed to prevent murders. I don't increase them. Criminals will always find a way to get guns, while the rest of us are just left defenseless. Chicago authorities have seized over 75,000 firearms since 1995. And now, Chicago's murder rate is twice as high as New York City. Tonight, while you're asleep, criminals will be at work. Not in Kennesaw, Georgia. In 1982, our city passed a law requiring every household to have a gun. It terrified the criminals, and our violent crime rate is now 75% below the national average. We sleep well here in Kennesaw. Americans who own guns prevent over a million violent crimes every year and save lives. Get the facts. Visit armedandsecure.org. That's armedandsecure.org.
