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 vie 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. We've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control for 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, in fear, and be a slave? Both sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republican each God given right. Pray to God to torture freedom as I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for once 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 and 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, the land of the free intelligence report. I'm Mark Hornke and I'm all of our brothers and sisters behind the lines in occupied territories west, south, east and east. To us on the Michael Rifeck network in the morning we're also on libertytreeradio.4mg.com. We're on AM and FM microstations, CB base stations, alternate technologies east and west of Mississippi, southern and central Alaska. And we're also on the Hallmark network, six states in the old colonial states. On the eastern half of the country and growing quickly there will be on number seven by next weekend I think. Of course it will just be a little tender in other states but it'll be part of many. Well Don today's date is... Hey you guys it's 10 December already and I look out the window yee-haw I see somebody's plowing my driveway with their truck. Oh boy it's almost like Christmas again 10 December. We've got a caller already too Mark but you know what you guys I got a little exuberant there looking at Here's another way to relieve your workload. One in the chamber. The slide is closed. The well is full, you know, the magazine well. And hey, it is Weapons Wednesday. So we can now offer equal opportunity for us to ensure that, well, the right job is done when the time comes. And all of you out there, well, you've been grabbing Liberty Teeth left and right to the point where I'd say we almost have an extra set of dentures or two out there across the country. That's an obvious fact with the weapons sales, which they've tried desperately to deny or tried to shuffle the numbers. Kind of like looking at the stock market with a lie there. First of all, what would I say about the stock market? Well, I'd say the same thing to all of you now that the Klingon commander said to his crew on the Enterprise in search for Spock, he listened to five stock markets, but he lost most everything a couple times over anyway. Anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday. And bringing a number of subjects, touch on basically, mindset but also things happening that are why you're supposed to be armed. We have a caller. Who do we have? I'm from Alabama. Hey Tom, jump in there. In honor of weapons, we're here getting familiar with driving myself on my new toy. Excellent. But I've got a, you know, I recorded that ammo problem about three weeks ago and after pretty well sure that this is the lot number, I asked me for the lot number and I couldn't give it to you. That's okay. F6 or FE. You know stamps sometimes are all blurred. I think it's F6-06. And that's on the box. No, it was, it went back to the source to where I bought it. And it had these bands wrapped in cases of it. And that had the lot numbers on it. Did they say whether or not they've had anybody else asking about that kind of a problem with the ammunition? I had forgotten, I forgot to ask him, but I'll be back in there. That's not a problem, but again we need to follow up on that only because I'd be curious and again point out to him, hey this is what happened to the ammunition that we used, you might want to keep an eye on this. With the AK that you got, hopefully you got mags. Yeah, I got six of them total. Very good, that's a good start. Again, some molly pouches if you're using a molly system where you can grab mag pouches from there. The East German or the Russian pouches, there's a number of different sources for them. The AK mags obviously do have a little different size, you know, different dimension. canvas pouches, there's a number of different types. There's the German box car camouflage. They usually carry four mags. Or if you go to, and I don't know how much they have left, but I know they have them. There's CenterFireSystems.com. CenterFireSystems.com. They had a couple of good deals on like mag packages, or mag pouch packages. They're out of mags. They don't have any mags. But they do have mag pouches. And another place to go would be again, MainMe.com. is they're one of them that actually is a pretty decent little design. Now you'd have to ask him. There's a six pocket Molly pouch that basically is a copy of what we used to call the old CIA bags. Just a simple bag and a rifle, kind of like a Chinese with their chest pouch in Vietnam. But there's also a pouch that stuff loaded up. They're a nice little pouch. They're made out of cord, not just regular nylon. Six mags in there, have them ready to go. Have the mag pouch, you grab the rifle, and at least you've got a fighting load. A way to carry this stuff is a thing. is a chest pouch. There's Chinese out there, which are not bad. They carry usually three or six depending on which model it is somebody imported. I'd carry those anyway. One of the nice things about the chest is you can actually carry a chest pouch. Put on a regular combat rig like a regular load bearing gear, you know, the traditional Type 50 or Type, you know, TA90 stuff. Work just fine. But the cool thing is you take off the loader, you still got a chest pouch, three or six mags in it and some extra gear. Plus you're always carrying your rifle because you never lay your weapon down. In other words, Couple of solutions anyway, hopefully give you some ideas. Another thing, I know most everybody's out of mags. The only way you're going to get mags is pretty much go to the shows, which is where they filtered out too from all of the jobbers. I do know that Maine military, mention them again, Maine military, Bulgarian AK mags, the steel ones, and I think they have some plastic thermals too, but I know they have steel for sure, and they've got some AR mags too for those people who are still looking for them. Everybody else we've called that's a jobber, Bottom line is they use the word out for everything. Out of any air mags? Out. Got any AK mags? Out. Got any ARs? Out. Got any AKs? Out. They've all gone out to the retail end or they've already been sold to people and are just plain gone. You need to keep in mind, grab more mags right away as soon as you can. You happy with it? I've had a chance to really be a pretty good SKs and I always like but the thing is the sks has a governor of the same price we want everybody about this are well made in the air beautiful fireman i'd be giving one not like i said i'll take drive that all day but uh... the a k is a fine weapon the good thing is interchangeability with regard to ammunition uh... different action if you could are the a k of course by kalishnikov was the next rifle wasn't replacement for the s k s that's one of these people have to understand the s k s in the a k were designed to be in service at the same time One was not inferior to the other. It's just that the SKS had a different family niche in the philosophy of how the Russians built, or for that matter, how each army was building up their weapons inventory. Russia used a submachine gun, a light carbine, an assault rifle, which was a new family niche. Then they had what's called an MBR, main battle rifle. Now they used the Moissan, they got bolt action, which everybody's buying. but they were trying and always tried to find a rifle to meet the same service parameters as the Garand, the M1. And they never did find anything that quite fit that niche until they came up with the Dragunov rifles, which you're seeing, which are nothing more than the AK on steroids. You know, a longer receiver in a main rifle cartridge. So the AK and the SKS are brother and sister. They're not competing. In other words, it wasn't that one knocked the other one out. It's just that the SKS uh... served a certain purpose it was designed to be given to uh... artillery uh... it was actually supposed to be used even for scouts there was a number of different missions that they felt it would fit quite well we can see they have put the same bullet down range of the a k if you get shot with an s gas or an a k and it kills the guy dead in a doordail what is he going to be gasping with his last breath it doesn't count it wasn't as ks don't work like that no it don't work like that Well, I wait until the AK is seen. But again, it was a rifle niche, which isn't it not... Now the rifle you have there is a semi-automatic carbine if it's an AK because it's not an assault weapon, it doesn't have a clack-clack. It doesn't go to the other... What's interesting is they try to call it an assault rifle, but it's a semi-automatic carbine with a magazine and a beautiful firearm. Again, very accurate. The accuracy of most weapons that we're grabbing is not mechanical. It's not a mechanical issue with regard to operation. It purely is the sights. Now the AK for what it is as an intermediate rifle rifle with an intermediate rifle cartridge. Now the sights on there are serviceable. But one of the things that's true of every weapon on the planet, it's purely a matter of the better the sighting system you put on the rifle, the greater the ability to hit consistently is developed. Probably the best example of that is everybody was buying K98 Mausers in 1898, 1890, or 1900. The United States basically adopted a K98 design but they made it theirs and we call it the 1903 Springfield. Now if you compare the Springfield to the Mauser, the regular Mauser Chevy and a Cadillac, well the same is true with AKs. If you take an AK and dress it up a little bit, I wouldn't change a whole lot on it, but if you wanted to dress it up the first thing that I'd be concentrating on is the sights. I've got a catalog I'm looking at a kit, a little short scope which is standard also the There's actually the quickest and easiest mountain. By the way, this also works into Don's area of interest, as you know, he's focused on. They make a bunch of these dust cover mounted scope mounts. They are very inexpensive. Of course, your rifle might have a side rail on it. They've been offering the actual Russian side rails. If it has a side rail, I'd go with a Russian mount system, or one of the knockoffs that's been made. If it doesn't, a cheap solution that's quick is a dust cover mounted, a pick in any rail, right onto the dust cover. and it's designed to be more stable because it's been tightened up so it's more rigidly to the rifle. What's cool is you can take the regular dust cover off, reach into your little pelican case, your little mini pelican case and pull out the whole scope system. System on the rifle already zeroed for the weapon and you've got yourself a mini sniper rifle. Now the next option is where, oh and gone stepping away for a second. Well the thing is that the other option is remember if you want to put night vision on that AK, rail mounted on the dust cover, you can keep the night vision off and preserve it, need it, rather than having it on the rifle 24 hours a day. So there's some neat things you can do with the stuff that's been developed that's aftermarket. Cheaper than dirt has that. There's a couple of other companies, if you go through the Shotcut News, that offer the aftermarket mounts and rails like that. It's a cheap, easy solution that works that upgrades your rifle the next tier. My rifle has a side rail on it. Oh it does, perfect. Well then if you look, you'll find there are several companies offering the side rail scope mount. And I would go that way for upgrading and putting an optical system on it. That way you can take it off whenever you need to and it's out of your way. But the moment you slide that on, since it's zero to that weapon, once you get on the rail, then you can take it off, put it in the box to preserve it. Little Pelican cases you can get from Wally World Walmart for $5 to $7 a piece right now. They're desperately trying to sell stuff and Christmas isn't going very well for anybody. Wally World get one of these little cosmetic cases that looks like a Pelican case. You can buy the foam that you need, cut out the foam where you go with the crush foam where it's got the little pyramids, and you lay your little scope and you seal it shut. It's sealed from the environment and it's padded from being damaged. It's small enough that you can easily carry it in your backpack. And that way you've got your optics with you all the time if you want to go to those. If you want to just stick with iron sights, standard combat ranges, that's fine. But if you decide, maybe I think I need a little more accuracy here, you can slide that rail on and you're ready to rock and roll right there. Boom, boom. And of course the same is true with night vision. You buy another rail. You don't use one rail for two projects. You buy a second rail. You put your night vision scope on that rail. And now whenever you want to switch that AK over to night vision operations, you're all set. By the way, on your SKS's you can do the same thing. You've probably seen them. There are dust cover mounted, picking any rails. They've had these for years. These were made by American companies, not Chinese by the way. There are Chinese models out there, but you can find American made versions of this. They think Centerfire system has both. They've got both the Chinese and the American made. And this gives you another way to put a night vision device on an SKS. So even though they are simple systems, that doesn't mean they can't be altered a little bit without cobbling the weapon and without hindering your normal performance with the rifle. The nice thing about that dust cover on the SKS, you know how it comes off. You just pivot the pin, pull the pin out, and the whole dust cover comes off the top of the weapon. Well, then you take the rail system with your choice of scope or your choice of night vision. Put that back in place, pack in, and it's ready to go. They're a very user friendly system. One nice thing about the SKS and the AK, they're very forgiving for people who don't know how to do maintenance on their rifles. In other words, they'll run even if they were designed to be that way. For all this Russian ammunition and Chinese ammunition and Bulgarian ammunition and Romanian ammunition and don't forget the Yugoslavian ammunition, all of that will work in those SKS and AKs because they were designed for that ammunition and its nature, what it does. Even if it's dirty ammo, the AK is very forgiving of dirt with self-cleaning, self-cleaning, it works all the junk out the bottom of the weapon, kicks it out the magazine well, and it continues to function. Either way, you got some good, right? Okay. Now, good talking to you this morning, Mike. Thank you, sir. I'll tell you what, do us a favor, test fire that weapon using some of that other ammunition that you guys used before, if you can find it. Well, I've got some of the latest side is test ammo, but the problem I got, the range that I use, are they going to be closed for that long? The duck season should be closed in January sometime. I think it opens back up about right around. It might be closed today, might go politically correct. That's what's got me a little worried. If it goes that way I figure it out. You'll be sighting it on the proper target to begin with. Okay, let's use the SKS's. Yeah, I got those. Wait a minute, have you sighted that AK yet? Okay, he's hobbling, he's on the ground there. He's trying to drag himself back to cover. uh... let me check the rain finder at the hundred twenty five yards okay cider in uh... can you give him the boat but no don't hit him in the helmet that mess it up in the middle we got plenty of those okay there you go dot it all dot it all dot it all what about two more rounds pop pop pop yet yet five votes by shot they she cited him there you go here it got a hurt that's right he screaming in the radio with the screaming in the radio they're not using that frequency and i thought it would be shooting them ahead that it's a shooting about it that should be put Alright, let me tell you, I was in this gun search. I can tell these guys are really in a quandary. They know that their weapons can, they want to get rid of them because they're afraid if they go the wrong way they might have them all. They're stuck, and there's another thing too, they'd like to charge more but the economy is so soft, be charging what they're supposed to, because they already are getting their money, they're making a profit already. Oh yeah. And the thing is that, yeah, they're terrified of the idea. Some are. Now, others, the reason, I'll tell you a follow-up, the majority have not changed their prices, and that's why they sold out, because they knew that they'd better get them out into the hands of the people. They would challenge it if you go to different websites, pay attention to the little postings that are all over them. Take a look at little statements and comments that before were not there by the founding fathers. They're trying to send a message that, well, you know, we really support Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the armed citizens, and by the way you need to be one. I mean again they can't do what we're doing in their part and that's why those nice echoes that you hear in those warehouses to me are the best thing. That's the best sound we could possibly hear.

I'll tell you what, one thing everybody has to understand, we're in two different parts of the state of Michigan, still covered by snow. Don unfortunately got dumped on. You get up the wall with the wind, the flowling through the leaves, the sticks of high, allowing the wolf to catch their prey. That much better. Well, down here, of course. We've got snow, but we've been getting kind of a snow rainy thing. It's a slush kind of stuff. Not good for the road. Secondary terrible right now. But the roads for the most part are clear and we still have winter here right now guys. All variations on it which is typically how the state is. The Upper Peninsula is UP, especially on the eastern side. Look at Michigan. Real quick, look at a Michigan map. The state, there's the key went all way, way up on the top. That's that horn on the top of the Upper Peninsula. A maroon on the eastern half of the upper part of Michigan. Guys, we got Lake Superior. You've got the Huron and you've got Michigan and they all if you look look at them as long torpedoes all targeted towards that eastern end of the upper peninsula and it's just off to the left of that. Yeah. Oh my goodness. The shade of the lake effect. Except speed across there from Wisconsin goes across Lake Michigan and decides to come and visit well the state now on the state. If I had my druthers and I don't I'm wishing my life away. I really do wish this was the last no of the season instead of the first. Because it's an indicator. In some cases they have up to 30 and 35 inches of snow that have already hit in that area. They already got hit with 30 inches and then last two days shoveling to clear out the property. If they were shoveling, they wouldn't be talking on the phone to us, they'd still be shoveling right now. Well one of the things that, and we beat this up a lot and callers beat this subject up a lot, but you know when it gets real cold that takes a toll on batteries. your any other batteries you might need batteries for your laser indicator you know batteries for your ACOG site your open eye site this is why I was late the car started great all up until yesterday went up and that's kind of you know it's not like five degrees below yet do my best to stay up on top of things but that one caught me by surprise and all it takes just a little bit of oxidation this is critical the contacts and that's all she wrote no ticky no washing now good point on that too because you of course deal with night vision And again, guys, night vision works off one thing, so we want to make sure that we do basic maintenance. We don't just want to pick the thing up, set it on the shelf, run it, and then let it sit there for three, four, five years. Doesn't mean that it won't hold up, but... It might hold up, but the battery might not. There you go. Inside a device that's been... and that will to the device. I cannot think of a night vision manufacturer that none comes to mind that will warranty inside the case. Now here's the thing, what kind of maintenance, and for everybody out there, a lot of you guys have night vision and you're thinking, uh oh, as you turn and look at the shelf and go, oh, I got $2,000 worth of money tied up or $1,000 worth of money tied up, or even if it's a few hundred dollars on the first generation, you got money tied up in equipment you don't want to have to buy again. Right. So what do we do to be safe on this to make sure that everything is secure? And by the way, before we go any farther, Don specializes in night vision. He already did a night vision primer that we have available, but the second one right now, Don's done all the filming on and he's going to bring you up to speed with regard to night vision application with all of the technologies that we have available. So Don, let people know how they can contact you and then this is something, this is Weapons Wednesday, it ain't just the bullets guys, it ain't just the magazines, you put optics on the roof of that weapon, you gotta make sure that they operate when they need to. With night vision, it's only half of the time guys, you know, the night hours. So how do we fix it Don? We're actually... We're longer nights than days right now for the next few weeks you guys, it's that time of year. But if you're gonna put your piece of night vision down, if you have a piece You don't plan on picking it up and carrying it into the field for the next few days. The best thing you can do for it is remove the battery. Many times if you get a soft case you'll have a little battery pocket that you can insert the battery in. If you get a hard case, there's not just cutting the foam to put the battery in. It's not like, well, it's willy nilly. So you take the device out of the case and you reach for the battery even in the dark. You feel for the positive. You remember which way the positive goes. You insert in slot, put on cap, close cover, whatever, however the battery. goes in and now you're up and running. There might have some interference or some visitors. It doesn't hurt to leave your battery in overnight as long as you don't leave it in there for that three months or six months. Every once in a while go and visit, say hello to your battery, make sure the scenes aren't bursting, nothing is oozing out of the end caps or anything like that. Because again, there's not a manufacturer going to cover that. Any night vision manufacturer. Years ago Mark, you could in effect, but I.T.T., you could run over one of their devices with your car, crush it flat, as long as it was under warranty, you send it back to them, they'd send you another. But in the same time frame, if your battery oozed inside, it would say, so toxic maintenance thing. You guys, two, three, one, seven, nine, six, eight, four, five, eight's the phone number to the count and tunnel network here. Don't call during the hour, as far as they know, there's only one line that comes in, again, two, three, one, seven, nine, You know, one thing I can say, Mark, and to a certain extent that happened in this time of year, I've got scenes that show foliage, the remnants of the summer, and I'm polishing up the last of it with running back over those same areas. When you talk about snow and night vision you guys hear, here's a freebie for you. This is one that people have called me up asking for first generation, and I've said on the air, subject to the exchange rate more than Walmart is because Walmart might have something on the shelf they bought two or four years ago. Oh, you know, that's not in a piece of night vision as long as somebody's not taking it home from Walmart every night. You know what I mean? On the Walmart and get a first generation piece in particular the entry level pieces that are better. So I'll give you that right off the get, you know, if you're looking for true entry level or first generation, you might be better off at Walmart. But I will tell you this, any piece of night vision and this is a broad statement because I'll qualify it more as we go. The bigger the front lens, much like the bigger the front lens on your binocular or your daylight, you know, the more light you're going to put into the tube. This works just as much with first, second, or third generation. But if you're seeing, if you go into Walmart and you look at a generation piece, see there's one manufacturer might make two different first generation. Stuff might be offered, you know, binocular, monoxide, gun sight. It might have the same tube in it. There's a very good chance. Specification number. You take that tube and lens in front of it, three quarters of an inch or an inch, to the same tube over here in a different body that might have an inch and a half, you know, percent more light gathering ability. As long as that lens isn't a great, great difference in magnification, like the little lens, my big lens is five power, a good portion of that increase in the size of the lens, of the focal lens, is going to be negated by the extra glass that is placed behind it in order to gain the magnification. You're lurking. You are working. Lurking. That's kind of, I don't know if that was a Freudian slip or what Mark, lurking around in the dark. But you're working with minimal amount of light. And photographers know about fast and slow glass. The faster the glass, the more light it lets through. The less time the aperture has to be open as a particular plate, a negative. The faster the glass in the night vision world, the better off. many times as far as in daylight applications. The best way to judge glass in daylight is in low light. You might look at glass and look way off into the distance where it's like an area of green or there's another high color contrast and look for chromation there. Color chromation which is like the blurring or even you know how when you mix colors in kindergarten on your palette. during art class, how colors change. That's color chromation, that's an indication. The less color chromation you have, the better the glass, the better the coatings on the glass. But that's one way to judge in the middle of the day. Way down into that low light, when you can hardly make anything out with your naked eye, and you bring up that pair of binoculars that has the huge front lenses on it, or that monocular that, again, has a good front lens on it, in particular when you start to talk about monoculars, you'd like maybe gun sights. and you see more light coming through that device than your naked eye produces, 10 or 20 or even some 40 dollar pairs of binoculars or whatnot, you know, even into gun sights, how dark the picture is in the other, the image being produced by the device, how dark it is, and that's a great indicator of the quality of the glass. Quality of the glass is extremely important in night vision, again, because you're working in such low light. If you're looking for a piece of first generation, try to get the biggest front that you can, without going into beyond like four power magnification. And you ought to do pretty good. I would finish that with that thought mark because again, I can't do any better on the night vision right now and you're going to wait for it and you're going to pay a delivery charge so that adds up more. If you look up in first generation, I can match and exceed a number of, as example, in the industry right now, Russian imported 8TM, there's the MO1. not certain what M.O. stands for, but that's the model designation. It has most of a 75mm front lens and it's free power. So that's a conservative amount of amplification with a large lens. So that little first generation 2 bear that isn't great is going to get all the support it can as far as light going. And that's a good thought line there. If you're only looking for, right now, scripture says pray it, your flight doesn't happen in the winter. You need a piece of night vision and you cannot afford third generation and you know things are going up. Things aren't coming down although years ago third generation was like gun sight and third generation mark was like forty five hundred dollars fifty five hundred dollars and I can knock fifteen hundred dollars off of that right now. We're looking at a third generation gun sight a good one one that'll hold up on top of your 308 3k mark and that's almost five and what the manufacturer will bottom line it to your four I can't sell it to your forty less than this. So just forget I said that and call me up sometime I'll do my best to give you a good deal. But right now, you guys, if you can't afford second or third generation and you live in a snowy area, get a first generation piece because as long as there's snow on the ground, you're going to get a good image for a respectable distance even in the low light. Old sky, no moon, plenty of stars. A first generation piece will still produce an image that you'll be able to walk around up the caveat here though, Mark, because I did this for someone who called and I talked to him for more than an hour about night vision performance and what first, second, third generation will do. If you have to fall back in these times, in the winter time, on a first generation piece, here's the difference. Because of the lines per motion, years ago when you used to buy a TV, the salesman would tell you how many lines per inch, but when you look at that little phosphor screen at the back of the piece of night vision, Many times it's not even an inch, so lines per inch doesn't qualify. In night vision we talk about lines per millimeter. First generation is going to go up, a good piece of first generation might be 22, maybe 25 lines per millimeter. The light performance starts at 35 and runs up to 45. By the time it got up to 45 and they added a different coating to it, wow, look at the lifetime is so good and the low light performance is getting big, started calling it third generation. 72 lines per millimeter. Now the more lines per millimeter, the finer the picture. Let's go back to that moving that first generation piece of night vision across the geographical area. You might be working through a woods. If it's a hardwood, you don't have much canopy overhead in the winter time. It's all on the ground. You're walking on it. If it's covered with snow, that snow is reflecting back up infrared light that's coming through, even through clouds. Now again, you'll be able to move navigate with that first generation piece. Here's the caveat I was talking about. If you're moving through the woods and you come to an area where you have to move yourself or a group of people, say a 120 yard field, and you want to make that next tree line 100, 120 yards away, you bring up your first generation piece of night vision and you might sit there and scan security and because of your for yourself and those around you, you might sit there and scan that firewood line for an hour, looking for any indication of motion, any indication of camouflage that ain't just right, that you don't want to walk out your group of people into the middle of a meadow and just be machine guns, right? Here again, I'm trying to give you a measure of performance. That first generation piece, even with some moon in the sky and the snow on the ground, at 100, 120 yards, you're not gonna see with the clarity that a second or a particular or a third generation piece is going to see. So you might be looking right at a piece of area that might be camouflaged just enough to deceive your first generation piece while the guy enjoying that camouflage looking back at you in the same amount of light might be seeing you clearly. But again, right now, if you can't afford second or third, I reinforce this over and over. Get yourself a first generation piece right now because as long as you live in an area where there's snow on the ground, it'll be better than a life jacket. But I'm trying to tell you guys, sometimes if all you've got is a biplane, you might think that well gee, read an account of Saburo Saki coming across a biplane and in his zero fighters of World War II, he couldn't shoot that plane down, Mark, because it was much slower but it was far more maneuverable. He could barely get a gun onto it. the plane would be over at his side. And that's antique technology compared to the Zero. So you're almost on an even playing field with first generation. Understanding your technology is a critical issue. This is really what we're trying to drive home with what you do have available. I hear these people do this, we're using obsolete this or blah blah blah. Shut up. There's no such thing. Everything can be utilized. It's just understanding its limitations and then implement and based upon the limitations and abil- abilities is the key word there. Yeah, that's right, of the systems that are available to you. But just because it's older doesn't mean it's oddly that closely overused. You play chess, don't you Mark? Play chess, the board game. Have you ever brought a computer to check using a major piece and maybe a pawn, pawns working in, you know, as a concerted team? I know you have. It matters not, you know, the pawn or the rook or the queen. It's like we were joking. It's in the right place at the right time and used. Key word again, its ability. How does that go Mark? Remember your training? You will come back alive. Got her training. True, a bunch of them did all at once. Panic is not the solution and understanding what tools you have, use what you can to the best of its ability and your ability in working knowledge. Most important is Because by having a wide range of information or a database to draw from through progressive experience, you become more competent in whatever weapon you're picking up and inspecting and preparing to implement it within your life's experience with the ability of that rifle is. How many times have you heard this BS? If you watch the modern guns, of course they're trying to sell you the next toy is what they're trying to do. Well you know there's things like that obsolete everyone Garand. When you hear that you know you got a goof who doesn't have a clue. The basic question I would have to ask is, and again the Garand is a machine, it is a fine machine. If you got shot with it in 1941 did it kill you dead or no doornail? You don't remember 1942. If you got shot in 1950 on the slopes of the Korean hills, kill you dead or no doornail? Seriously. That's right. You ain't looking at the next year around guys. Okay now if you were carrying that Garand and you shot some bugger in 1964 in Vietnam and by the way there were a lot of Garand's in Vietnam. In fact the Arban it was as big as they were guys. That shot with the .30-06 M1 rifle in 1964 did it kill you just as dead as it did in 1941? I don't think it was obsolete. If you grab that rifle and use that rifle with about 200 d-clips so you don't want your disposal and all kinds of optics ammunition loaded up and it's M2AP and M2 ball and you know Tracer and Sindir and whatever. As lethal today as it was in 1964 or actually 1974, 1964, 1954, 19... The day it came off the drawing board. Wow then I guess it's not obsolete is it? Nope. Ain't nobody gonna volunteer to step out there on the well the well the well pump roof and wait for me to shoot at them with eight rounds from a D-rand, are they? Nobody listen on this network. I think you're all smart enough to figure that one out. So please tell me again how it's an obsolete weapon system. See, that term doesn't apply. It may be a weapon system that's been with big service, but by no stretch of the imagination, especially for militia application, is an obsolete arm. And that's again, understanding the ability, in fact the fine ability of that M1 rifle. and its capability to reach out and engage a target at three times the effective range of most of the rifles carried today. Well, guess what? I want that weapon and I want that capability. I always loved it. There was this panty waste that wrote this article, guys, back in the 90s. And for those of you who like the grossly overpowered, dude, he had six. Well, they have these weapons still, you know, blah, blah, blah. He wrote this little article. And I'm thinking grossly overpowered. Me. I want grossly overpowered. on american but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but Okay, now that doesn't mean we don't carry AKs, SKSs and AR-15s. Guys, we sold them out. We bought them all. Okay? That's all there is to it. But keep in mind, Amy obsolete, Grandpa's rifle was carried effectively in World War II or World War I. It'll serve you this time around. And I hear Johnny Cash, we are at the top of the hour already, Don. It went quick. I'm sorry. What's your fault? Well guys, I tell you what, stay awake. You gotta go to work. It is Wednesday, middle of the week. Only two more work days after this, and you'll be done. He'll head towards the weekend. And those militia meetings and the training has gotta be done. God bless the Republic. Death to the new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. Empires on the run. We are on March 4th, day and night. I love this song, because we're gonna meet you on Up the Road. That's right. Those bad guys in the black uniforms. We're gonna meet them out up the road, give them their box. Nah, maybe not. We'll just let the dogs chew out of it one way or another. We're gonna meet the makers. Thank you, Don. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin. God bless you, Martin.
