So order today Silver has long been used throughout history as a way to disinfect and prolong the freshness of water and food, as well as utilized for its beneficial healing and anti-disease properties. From the Greeks, the Romans, and the Phoenicians to the Middle Ages, from the first settlers in America to its preventative use against infection during World War I, silver was always known for its health benefits. Hippocrates wrote extensively about the healing power of silver, and in the 1920s, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the use of silver solutions as antibacterial agents. So what happened? Why aren't you hearing about silver? these days. For those seeking an alternative to the big pharma products and their side effects, International Health has what you've been looking for. Super Silver is an engineered silver nanoparticle solution created using the unique and patented silver technology process of International Health's biotech labs.

Yeah, I liked a lot of it. Yeah, it was good. It was great. What? You are listening to The Micro Effect. Micro broadcasters covering 194,000 square miles and bringing the people's voice to little towns all across America. He threw 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. But 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 use 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 will 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 will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O 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 torture freedom as I awoke he'd vanished in the midst for whence he came. His words were true. But we have ourselves to blame. For 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 to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? gentlemen you are listening to us on the Micro Effect Network in the morning and also on Liberty Tree Radio. We're on AM&FM Micro Stations, CB Base Stations and Ultra Net Technologies both east and west of the Mississippi and Alaska. Well Don today's date is? That means it's the midweek and Wednesday and that means it is Weapons Wednesday and if you lean your ear toward your speaker, one in the chamber, the slide is closed, the well is We can offer equal opportunity coercive force. We have the arms, we have the ability and the idea is to organize properly so that, well, it's not just when they come to your door, the idea is that question is as old as the hills. Important question is what do you come to your neighbor's door for, neighbor after neighbor? Well, the idea is that you need to be working with your friends, you need to be working with family, you need to be working with your neighbors to organize for mutual defense against the tyrant. because that's really what it's all about. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Of course, we've accomplished quite a bit. I want to say congratulations and thank you to all of our friends who came and visited us, for instance, at the Jim Monahan Antique Engine and Alternate Power Fest. It was a busy Saturday. It went very, very well. Of course, a lot of work to get there, what we did, but everybody had a great time. They got a chance to see electric cars, alternate technology, old motors, old engines for ideas you name it it was there and the new video by the way real quick here guys if you go to Liberty Tree Radio dot 4 mg dot com and the video from this last weekend with the Jim Monahan antique engine show is up and on the page check it out again the vehicle I was talking about down the electric car you know that's all it's a mystery the witch doctors uncle, uncle uncle uncle ow well you know what they tell all about how it's just electric cars always be such a tough thing to come up with a solution guys eighty years ago was already done okay the only reason that it's going to be a mystery is obvious reasons because they couldn't suck off that government heat while they uh... tens of billions for finding oh and by the way the meantime as we know the electric car It was saved by Al Gore, remember the ones that go for California, who were saved by Al Gore when he jumped in front of the car crusher out there in the desert. That's right, Mr. Carbon Credits and I'm gonna save the planet. Activist. Yeah, it's Activist Al. He chained himself to the car crusher and he... Oh no he didn't, he lied. Oh, he didn't even jump, he didn't even get up out of bed. He's successful, electric cars. Remember, if you want to check out a video, it's called Who Killed the Electric Car? Watch it on YouTube and lo and behold, This beautiful electronic car that they made work reclaimed them all and they crushed them and stacked them like dirty, crunchy cordwood. There's an example of good old Al. Yeah, yeah, worry about the planet. Well, thank you. Everybody had a great time. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it. Other things going on. Well, I'll tell you what. Minnesota guys, shay. that helped to free arrests for crimes that had not been committed. Preemptive strikes. Preemptive arrests. For people who want to, of all things, maybe protest. And in fact, it's interesting, as is pointed out by a guest we had on the air yesterday, well, they went after the lawyers. If you've listened to this program, you know I don't have any great love for lawyers, okay. And as we know, we're not exactly in terms of liberal. But we understand the founding fathers did, especially in situations of this type, if we do not protect right of the people, the Soviets, that are re-slash the homeland security slash heartland security operation, free arresting people, going to their home, having lawyers, they grab reporters, and we would recommend you go to YouTube and do a series of cases, the people, and we're sending the information out as it was happening. Well, let's link these two together here, Martin, a different example. I speak a Lincoln two together, there was great preparation for the hurricane that just came on shore, Adolfo or Enrico or whatever it was. But did you notice that you didn't see the head of FEMA? When you saw the head of Homeland Security, whatever the foreigners name is, talking about how we're prepared for everything to come on shore. We have all types of things pre-deployed all of the things that they did not do before. All of the things that we talked about on that you've addressed on this hour mark brought to you by the head of whole security. Not seeing a member has been moved in like an upside down tree, cede with that with security as the room. Is that Minneapolis, what they get is completely in violation of the body of law of the United States? They would try to tell you that while they have the legal under Homeland Security and I'll tell you what Joseph Stalin which is what Chertoff is basically a you know spit swapping buddy too he never did anything that was he have done every was unlawful but good old Joe Stalin never did anything illegal because the cronies always made sure that I'll consolidate power for the sake of fish and shion whenever you hear that term or team whining when you're talking about government it does not mean that they are going bureaucracy in any way, shape or form. The only thing that is going to be streamlined is the fact that the central committee, the parties that be the top of each of these elements of the bureaucracy are collecting and raking in more and more and more and more power. That's what they want. In the name of efficiency. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. That just means they can kill people faster if they have their way. Now, it doesn't mean that they're going to get away with it in this day and age right now because we're totally from say, Russia 1930 or 1931 in that the American people are very well armed. A lot of people do know what's going on and even people in the system understand that the trail taking place with regard to the Shysters that are operating like Homeland Security, Homeland Security. When you get that deep into communist occupied Russia and the whole of Russia, you have to understand that by that time great portions of the Russian people had been disarmed. There's this poster mark and I've seen it in school books and you see it every now and then. It's this Russian, almost like a kazar, one of the horseback, what are the horseback riders of the Russians? The Kossacks. Oh, the Kossacks with the Kossack hat and uniform. He's got his arm stretched and it's just a line drawing, big, big poster. There are people in front and putting up at him. Well, in the school books that I saw years and years ago, you know, seems like a lifetime. That poster was meant to represent us calling people to freedom and equality. Well, the real caption to that, turning your arms. And that was run out. And it was run out until, you know, book in charge. It was citizens handing your weapons was actually the real caption of what I said. And of course, one guy, there's a guy with his palm. Another is showing though that, look, I'm not pointing the pistol at you to get rid of you. Shows a hand, one of them's got his hand and he's got a pistol and one guy's got a band and different weapons and such. And here, the population being armed. Every place, wherever this has happened, it's because the tyrant is afraid that something is going to happen. Now, I'm gonna add a little sub note on this. I pointed this out over and over again with the invasion of Iraq. You know they would tell everybody how Saddam Hussein was a tyrant. No, he was a, like many others, he was a tradition of the Middle East, ruled with a strong arm, a bottom line. But one of the reasons he ruled with a strong arm, let's ask the basic question. How many times did you think we tried to assassinate him? Why do you think he had so many people that looked like him? We hung the right one. Or they hung the right one. Exactly. How many times do you think that we bought, we went in with double bags full of money and bought people to try and assassinate Saddam Hussein in his own country? Again, why? Well, because he was an ally, but he was an ally that knew how to survive without us. In other words, he needed an absolute puppet so when they want to murder him or execute him, he's going to switch and he's gone. If you've got a man who can see what you're doing to his country and see what you plan on doing to him, you plan accordingly which is what he did. Now the reason I bring up the whole thing about him saying that he was a tyrant to his people. Well, when Saddam Hussein was in charge, his people were paying less than 17 cents a gallon for fuel, not what they are paying now. There were gun shops all through Iraq. And if you wanted to buy not a semi-auto yuck yuck firearm which they would kind of laugh about over there, If you want, oh they had them, but the point is that if you wanted to buy a firearm, you went in anywhere and you could buy as little as any handgun that existed, any bolt-action rifle, you could buy an AK-47 full-auto, you could buy an RPK. Hell, you had enough money, you could buy an RPG. Think about that. If that was a tyrant state, how is it that everybody was able to just walk in and buy whatever firearm they wanted? Okay, what's wrong with that picture? In fact, you might recall that after the supposed collapse and over run by us. What is it they were talking about where they said that everybody could keep a rifle or like an AK and an SK and they weren't talking. See the problem is people think oh it's like the US here. Well they get to keep a semi auto SKS carbine and a semi auto AK copy. No, when they're talking about everybody keeping an AK, we're talking everybody was keeping an AK. Know what I mean? Ask them these people about when they were searching. They didn't have any registration, blah blah blah blah before in Iraq. everybody had whatever weapon they wanted you want to own a 375 Holland and Holland bolt-action rifle you got it if you want to own a 25 automatic papers what the hell are you talking about or anything in between in other words it was that extreme but as far as what you could own it's just pure what do you have in the way of money to spend okay so in iraq both ways Saddam Hussein was just as absolute tyrant how is it that everybody was armed discretionary thing if you feel all do not be listed as you'd have a gun It's like, oh, okay, no problem. But if the average guy here does, it'd be a good idea if you did. This other nonsense about all these other regimes, but even here in the United States, bottom line, they do not want the American people to be armed. Hell, even the old Tom Hussein, his population was... While Saddam Hussein was in power, although we certainly bought people to try and murder him, it's amazing just exactly how many of his people pretty well that country and didn't go anywhere. The only time that they started leaving Iraq is when we started starving people in Iraq and bombing people in Iraq. Let's go right on down the list. For the last, what, 18 Americans of activity overseas in Iraq and in the Middle East. But again, we have other characters here. We call them supposedly liberals, we call them supposed conservatives. CFR members or characters that want to and implement Soviet socialism in the United States are the same Shyster family lines that were over in communist Russia who had that poster created, for instance, Don, where they had their hands up there and hand over your weapons. And of course, as we know, almost as quickly as they demanded that, the next step was, well, hand between. Oh, you could have fought, but guess what? You know, we got the weapons, guys. Sorry about that. Pop, pop, pop, pop. Okay, maybe not. Why do you think Solzhenitska wrote that if we had only waited with axes and shovels, he didn't say, if we'd only got our gun? Think about it. It's right there in front of you. Why did he say that? Because the guns were gone. Well, again, why would they want everybody to start? Well, it's because you've got power freaks who want to manipulate and take your time, your life, whatever. So we're not going to let that happen. We have to make sure that you're armed accordingly and armed appropriately. And that means, well, you're going to have to catch as catch Ken. Now there are a lot of good trade shows out there. What I mean by trade shows is not necessarily gun shows, people. There are militia-only gun shows. I don't have the latest schedule. I don't know if they've been going on, but we will have that pretty soon here when I make my next trip back east. If you pay attention, this time of year, also a whole bunch of what they call coon dog festivals or hunting dog shows. They're out in the middle of nowhere, off in a nice little location in the back room. Behold, you can go out there and you'll find, oh, 20, 30, 50, or 100 acres of pickup trucks that pull into this just lined up road. And Don, you can buy anything from your favorite puppy in whatever flavor of dog. Woof! You know, like my 200 pound, I think we gotcha kind of dog. In fact, I know he's got you. If he gets older, ye let him go. all the way down to of course the minor things that make hunting fun. You know like .357 Magnum pistols, .45 automatics, .12 gauge shotguns, bolt actions, semi-autos, the accrualments. That's right, the things you need to get the hunting job done. And amazingly enough it's person to person and the majority of the places in this country are not like the Californicators of the West Coast or the work establishment slash the Soviet East Coast or New Jersey. Instead, you go out and see something you like. It could be duck decoys, it could be that, if you come out at 37, it could be a dog. And you buy them right there and you take them home and there's no paperwork because of the company or business involved. Just a couple of people deciding they want to trade some things or they want to buy something. So that's one of the best ways to find what you need. Now here's something I will point out. A lot of people would know we've given you special names and lists for to pick up. I can just mention the Ithaca Model 37. It would be wonderful if you could find one. However, those are getting fewer and far between. Everybody's buying them and putting them on the shelf for themselves. So be satisfied with a pump shotgun. Find one. The old Stevens 12 gauges or 20 gauges are just fine. The old Model 12 built like a brick doghouse. You can beat the snot out of somebody with it. Turn right around and still fire and forget. Boom. The trigger. That's right. to understand the operation of firearm, but still, firearms are out there. There's 22s, rifles of all types. They're dog show fests and they're hunting events. So you'll find many, many other things there. Guys show up with surplus gear. Guys show up with modern hunting gear. Another thing we've tried to emphasize, wet weather gear, something you are going to need. You're going to have to find it whatever direction you can and guess what? The commercial stuff, if it's the better stuff, works. But especially with regard to it's going to be a long barrel. probably in say a 28, 29, 30 inch. Oh well, you know what? Leave it the way it is. Exactly the way you do it. Don't chop it. Don't hack it. If you can do anything without cobbling the firearm, it will take a magazine extension under the barrel. Somebody's going, yeah, but that's a really long barrel. Yeah, that means you can have a really long magazine clamped underneath it. You can carry a hole. That going up, it will seem like a semi-tape. It will seem to tug you toward your target. That's right, which means it won't, don't worry. As you pull the trigger and rack the action, it gets lighter toward the front end. But that's a very desirable way to set up all of your combat arms, your slash still hunting firearms. But the point is that with a good magazine tube extension, you've got yourself some firepower. And if you go to CenterFiresystems.com, that's CenterFireSystems.com, CenterFireSystems.com. They have the Aguila, these are the little, the Eagle brand from Mexico, it's called Aguila. Aguila short 12 gauge, they're 1 5 8th inch long overall body. They do have high brass but they're very short. Well the 1 5 8th inch brass and plastic cases perform exactly as a standard 12 gauge load. shorter. Well Don, if you have say a seven shot or a five shot magazine, you can put almost twice as many rounds in the shotgun. Sounds like fun. Oh that means I can get that puppy to really go to town if I want to, can't I? Yup. Well I'll tell you what, if you want a, let's say a pastel of them, they're 10-5-8 inch shells, here's the number to call, 1-800. That's 1-800-950-1231 or you can go to, if you want to find out more on the internet, go to www.centerfiresystems.com. Okay, centerfiresystems.com. You go check them out. You'll be amazed at what you find there, but these Aquila short 12-J shells mean that you can double the capacity of your gun. And they worked just fine on the action. We've already had them tested, and they've been tested for many years. It's a little secret they don't want anybody to know about. The whole pocket full of ammunition, twice as many rounds, 10 to 10 space. Well, I hear the music for the bottom of the hour break. Y'all go get a cup of coffee, but wake up. Come on, it's time to go to work. It's 7.28 out west. You've got to get up. It's the middle of the week, technically. We'll be back in about three minutes with Don and Mark.

Now you know just as a reminder here, it happens Wednesday you hear this at the front. One going in there to the slide getting close. The well is now you know if you do that every day by your side you know much like you know you get a chance to look at your gun every now and then. Wow! Instead of you know it's bigger you know oh you know that's a 1911 the action you see. years ago, Mark, in one of the gun magazines, there was comment about a 1911 grandfather, you know, went to his reward. Somebody about, well, you know, when I die, you go up in that drawer and you get that little thing out of there and it's yours. Well, the guy went up there and put it in that drawer. One in a chamber. Just out of that rock and roll ready to go. 2000, this happened. Fully functional. That doesn't mean that you can count on you about, you know, like M16 and 30 round mags. You know what I mean? Half your mags loaded. just to give those poorlings a break. But I'm getting kind of off the path where I wanted to go. If you look at your gun every day, you get to see the little things that, you know, oop this nick or that little bear bar there doing that fine chassis shake or whatnot. Well, what works, where works just for a little while. I want to talk about finish again. Because, you know, some guns, I'll tell you what, you guys, I take the AR-50, the half inch gun out to shoot deer. And I don't mind sitting out in the rain with that gun if it's raining half the day all the day and it's 50 mile an hour wind and whatnot. Because you know what, that gun, the finish on that gun mark is like arm and a development and planning and the production of, because I think they, you know, they want that to be the top of the line model, the showcase, like the Corvette, you know what I mean? And every done right on that gun. Clean the bore. But then again, I have a gun, more than one gun, if you do it like this. If you take a dry rag, clean rag, and rub it down and set it over there in the corner for a while, and you come back at it, and you may be glanced at it, or it catches a little bit of your breath because, well, how's the moisture from your breath? It starts through oxidation. But again, what I'm offering up is a many different, you know, some of the prettiest, finest shooting shoulder weapons we have in America are like that. They just have a pretty finish on them. They don't have a, what one would, Oh, here I'm going to use the word and qualify a phrase. Mil-Spec. Here's Mil-Spec Mark. A lot of people think Mil-Spec means the top of the line of everything. Well, as example, in night vision, about four years ago, the Mil-Spec got a little night vision. A Mil-Spec night vision tube means that there's no defects in 15 degrees of center of the field of view. There could be a big old cow's head blotch over there at 25 degrees away from the center. Now granted, we're starting to get to a pretty wide view there. But performance, no spec doesn't necessarily mean that it would be like a double A grade tube, even better, like something a photographer would want. Like there's only one little spike in it, one dinky little, what looks like a star. And over here, way up in the corner, and he could probably crop it out in many instances, would be that little, what was a cow head in another tube. just a blotch, an imperfection, a piece of dust that was melted into the tube when it was welded, heated together to the metal base. This is why we grate things up to mil-spec and even beyond, finish onto a good gun. I've said it so many times, you know, you treat a gun right, you teach your son to treat it right, and he teaches his gun will last for generations. Standing, I've told over the last few years, Mark, about standing at a little, thinky little gun show, it was only about 40 tables here, down here in Big Rapids. on the table and some of them were old and I looked close at them. Later they became called Darren Pocket Gun. It was maybe four inches long all told, two and a half inches. I picked that up and oh yes, please do. And I did and I got out, I carried a little magnifying glass to look at and I looked right down at this at 20 power and the finish on this was just the engraving in it and all, Vere Pocket Gun. And he wanted Doug $1,700 for it. It was made in 17,000 dollars. 7-deck gun may very well have a colonist turned American standing up for his own gun like that is a responsibility because it's been around so look at it. Many times I ask you to compare an inch to a mile. How do you go a mile with that first inch and when you get that brand new gun maybe treat it like it's a hundred, three hundred like it's been through the American. Or so it'll be again and you're right maybe one day you're great grand or maybe it's moved into another family another different owner come up. on it and doesn't know the history of it but sure knows that man this thing is two years old or so and look I load it up like the manufacturer wanted me to and put and I do this and I do that and put a little stuff here right and pull the trigger my defense or the defense of the nation and you know I can go on and on and be all kinds of romantic stories about finish of a gun or the history there but you don't get that keeping it right you don't get that without paying attention even to the point of every day. And I've told you before, you guys, you know, if you buy a gun, a handgun or in particular, you buy, oh, a hundred yards, that's a true assault. I'd really like to have one of those, though. When you do that to a gun, buy it, put it in your gun safe or whatnot, or doing a disservice to the gun and to yourself, in particular to the long guns and bolts. Because why? What do you want to do? You want to become familiar with that gun, you know, but used to say, Mark, that it's about every tenth and maybe every twelfth gun comes down the, that is, exception, the other nine. Well, the other nine or ten guns are really good, but, you know, that other one just shoots so small. If you're lucky enough to get one like that, and again, I'm getting off on a little side track because I wanted to invoke some skip here, but if you get a gun like that, you want to take care of it. Now, if you take that gun and put it in the shelf, what are you doing? You're not developing fire-formed cases. to why that gun might have, they might have just put a, they might have just cut that chamber with a brand new cutter. Maybe their specs are, well, we're going to build more of a field gun, and as that cutter comes right to, and then they continue to use it because, you know, they're trying to get the most out of the tooling, and the chamber gets a little bit tighter and that, that, but it will still chamber everything sold by Remington, Federal, and other, you know, main, major manufacturers. Oh, again, I get, I'm bringing a lot of little different spurs of the thought line in here. But if you put that gun on the shelf or in the gun case or in the closet, I'll keep it and I'll be ready when, you know, this isn't like that statement, but America's it when they realize they've been shammed. Why do you want to get that gun out and be comfortable with it? You need at least 100, if not 200. If you want to be a tack driver at hundreds and hundreds or even thousands of yards, you need 100, if not 200, maybe even 300 fire formed cases. You can take bell curves out of those, stuff them in volume and weight and all of them in blueprint. and the best you can to take those, set a thousand yards down to four inch or down to two and a half inch if you've got that one in ten gun and you know how to reload around the case a little bit. You know, a lot of people that reload, load exactly to the stock specs, but you know, you can in particular, if you want to load an angle bullet or in the case, it doesn't have to be loaded down to the cantilever and in fact a lot of AMEXs don't even have a belt in them Mark and there's no, you have and you can order from some people AMAXs as example, low to 10, 30 or 40 thousandths. Now why would you want to do that? Well, guns again, going back to, well how worn is that chamber reamer? It might be 20 thousandths or 50 thousandths jump to length. It might be Dave, I think Moore mentioned a while back, he came across a 50 caliber gun that it was most of an inch to jump to the distance the bullet travels before it starts to hit the twist. There's a lot of you know, what balloting is. It's the bullet turning a little bit in the bore. It is influenced by the horses trying to move it forward and the friction around it. Indexed in the center of the bone is a problem. The bigger and bigger the bore gets. Imagine working. You know, I got here talking about finishes and I want to give you a phone number here, you guys. You know, we've talked about painting your gun if need be. I'm going to tell you that because of Experiencers and other things, When you get over the paint, preparation is everything. It doesn't matter how much you pay for paint, although you know, you don't have to pay for it. How good the paint is, eventually it's going to come off. There's a paint metal, you guys. There's this little thing called, in some shops it's jokingly called quacks and geeks remover, grease remover, more commonly in some other instances known as, you run mineral spirits across the gun that you've been keeping for years. and whatnot, you take that dry rag and run mineral spirits across it and then you walk away from that gun for a day or three, you'll be greatly disappointed in what you've done because that mineral spirits will pull all of the gun. And with all the oil gone, weapons marked, saying what? You take that mineral spirit and you clean the exterior of your gun, you take it apart to vest your ability and write down to the, well I need paint here, paint on here because it's a moving action. You can do that if you're really judicious in how you, you know, you can even paint the interior of your slot semi-auto shear back to handguns. I'm kind of jumping around and painting the interior of your slide. When you think about these people who build little model cars and airplanes and whatnot and paint the dashboards, the inside of your slide shouldn't be too hard you guys if you do the proper preparation as example, oil from the gun. Preparation, if you don't want the slide to be painted, you can tape it, you can put oil on a paintbrush and paint that slide area with oil. The next thing you can you apply your paint. is immediate process preparation. When the paint is dry, what do you do? You just think about it. There's so many ways to do this, but if you don't have that ability to make a gun last, or great, great, you never meet, but if you want it to last that long, here's a way to do it. And if you don't have that ability, you guys call Robbie Bartlett in Robar. He tells you, sure, he comes from South Africa, so he's almost got that Australian, British kind of agri-sure made out. I'll paint your gun he says, but if you want me to camouflage it, don't put it down in the woods. Guns down in the woods and it's camouflaged painted for that type of turnt. You're gonna have to remember where you put it down because you'll be hard pressed painted again. If you're good to camouflage guns, and this is one of the reasons why we talk about painting guns, color your gun first if you wanna do that. But if you don't wanna do that, if you wanna commit to one or great, like the Armalite AR-50 finish, that deep, deep phosphate that just doesn't seem to You know, you'd almost have to hit that with, you know, use it as a type weapon against another Yarmetal. That's where I'm going. But if you want to take that by 700 or that, there are many variants that have that breathe on it and it rust type and you don't want to put paint on it. Oh, that would be sacrilege. Oh, I can't do that to... Oh, Grandfather would kill me. Well, send it to Robbie Barkman at Robar Industries. There's no finish on it that will be admired by every person that sees your gun. In fact, you'd have to kind of show it to them because when you're out in the field, a lot of people won't see it. Some people will hear it. But Robbie Bartlett, you can reach him at three, five, eight, one, five, eight, one, four, eight, two, three, five, eight, one, two, six. Tell him you heard it on the intelligence report, you guys. If you've got a gun that you love that was your five, it might be a brand new gun. It might be an old, old gun. Maybe it's something that, because it's gun built in 1750, You don't want to put a different finish on it. You just want to keep it, keep that gun good and oiled. But this is an example, Mark, you've said it before. Guns are for buying, not for selling. And how do you get a gun that old in the family by not selling it? And how do you keep a gun in such condition, such admirable, something that someone would say, oh, that's a rust bucket. Or someone would say, that's a highly desirable item. And look how long it's been here looking so, such like a fine jewel into it by looking at it every now and then, not by putting it in the closet. this thought line, Mark, with, you know, you guys, you've heard me talk over the years about the Fox and the Coyote and the trepidations with them that are going to get that. Well, because of that, you know, there's, and because of other situations, I am of the mind that there should not, in an American man's home, be a gun more than two or three steps away, in particular if there are no children in the house. Well, there's 12 feet by the back door here before the Fox and the Coyote. And, you know, for about a year and a half, Mark, I left that muzzle down sitting every once in a while, I'd pick it up and through the winter that carpet got kind of damp and the very three quarters or half an inch of that muzzle developed a little rust ring. And I'm telling you this because many times I'll tell you well you know I made a mistake like leaving another gun at the window and actually had some type of insect of the same variety sometime in the future plug in the little wind but this is another thing about leaving a gun around and in a ready state. Hey God knows what moved into the muzzle of it or what happened to them. muzzle of it as the aforementioned 12 gauge that I need to remove about three quarters of an inch of the barrel and it's all my fault and I'm ashamed of it but I'm telling it to you so you don't do that 12 gauge sitting in a fuzzy carpet bad bad news. And people will wonder why you do that well in reality one of the techniques is to in the reverse ready position so that when you bring it up the muzzle is coming up onto target the idea is that it's quick to grab especially if you're laying down is that the receiver the trigger group is right there, you grab it, you bring the weapon up and boom, first round is as quick as you can pull the trigger. And then after that it's boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, time to grab the other 12 gauge because the first five or six or seven rounds are gone and somebody's reloading the first one. But the idea is that criminals have a tendency of trying to catch you unawares. So the idea is to be ready for those criminals in the black uniforms or the funny letters on their outfits. of course are bent upon trying to attack, steal, or hurt people or damage property. The idea is to thump them hard because obviously if they're doing that they probably plan on making you have an accident anyway. Well better them first as they say. So there's again different techniques now there are ways to store the weapon like that where you can put what's called a standoff and a little bit of a rack so that it actually holds it but that's improvising takes a little more work and you got to kind of ergonomically engineer the mount so that your needs. Another variation on that though is commercially made is they actually have what they call the, well they actually have a guy came up with the frame slips between the mattress and the box spring and what it does is it actually allows your personal firearm to rest speed holster so that it's readily accessible. You don't have to open up a drawer, you don't have to fumble for anything, it's right there. You grab it and boom, boom, boom, boom. That's how it works. There is always the case of keeping it under your pillow, but sometimes it gets a little lumpy. That is purely a matter of personal choice. Fit and finish is also critical to that because of the period of time, different levels of lubricant or different levels of preservative or ways that you detect the weapon from damage if it is going to be in any specific period of time. If it is something where it is going to be exposed to weather guys, you've got to do regular maintenance on it. I know a lot of you that are listening right now have that 22 and 12 gauge. The 12 gauge stuck in the raft are just over the door, say from one end of the barn to the other, or the 22 laying up on the shelf on the bench, workbench, it's your, you know, let's get the critter gun. You got to make sure, like Don said, that you do maintenance on that, check the barrel every once in a while, because one little mud-dobber wasp may have gotten in there. he got out. The second little mud dapper was, he decided it was a real good spot too. He kind of got out. Well, there might be not one little bug, but two or three little bugs. This is true. Who all thought that the barrel was a great place to be, okay, because it is dry and it's comfortable and whatever. So you got to keep that in mind and you have to inspect your arms on a regular basis. Another little trick real quick here, guys, how many have been carrying the same six rounds in a revolver or the same seven or eight rounds in an automatic for a period of time depending on what the weapon is or fifteen well guess what the moisture builds up gotta make sure you do maintenance there okay gotta check the rounds uh... I know guys that have said well I don't have a problem with my revolver and they've dropped the uh... five or six rounds that are in the cylinder only to find that that brass case Don it has another kind of finish on it now but it's a green color I like that Gunner's phone. That's a very unique color. Did you have your breast painted that way? Oh, not really. That's one thing to think about, and remember if you're using a lomina ammunition, it might not come out as green brass, it might come out as fuzzy powder. Uh oh. I hear the music, well again, buy more weapons, pick up more ammo, and you need lots and lots of magazines. Also remember, CenterfireSystems.com, you have the Aguila short 12-gauge shells, this is something for all you people looking for a way to carry more rounds without having to change the magazine capacity of your weapon or If you can't change the magazine capacity of your shotgun. Because some can't be altered guys, you gotta work with the space you got. We have CenterFireSystems.com, AgriLa ammunition 12 gauge, it's 1 5 8 inch long, very good choice.
