Mark Koernke and co-host Spike Simmons discussed preparedness topics including the upcoming Dayton Hamfest (May 15-17, 2009), with practical advice on what to bring and how to transport purchases. Butter Knife presented vendor information for machine shop supplies from Enco, including spindle oil and CRC dry moly lube with active promotional codes. Guest Buckshot discussed his newly completed survival trapping and snaring book, offering snare kits and DVDs covering trapping techniques, survival fishing, food preservation methods including smoking and drying meat, and lightweight backpacking food preparation. The hosts emphasized the importance of lubricants and supplies for field operations, food production through trapping as a calorie-efficient survival strategy, and proper meat preservation techniques for field conditions.
To install infants between your bed and foot board. And did I mention how much money you're going to save by turning down your air conditioner overnight? Please don't let another sleepless night go by. Get your bed fan by going to bedfan.com or calling area code 210-632-8280. 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. 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 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 and 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? 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 keep the torch of freedom burning 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. For even now as tyrants trample 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 fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free and home? Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Orneke. I'm Spike Simmons There we go. You'll also find us on AM and FM microstations, CB base stations, and UltraNet technologies. And with UltraNet, we're also with the Hallmark, as we've said, and we are on the O network, I guess is what I call it. I don't have a name for the third one because they've given to me. That's fine. I don't really need to know. But we have three networks that are part of the Golden Spike program that will be coming together. and we'll let you know how that works. They've maintained good operational security. We have a number of different people from many walks of life supporting this, and guys and gals from everywhere. And the restaurant crew, especially on the east coast, has done a fantastic job, especially being in Indian territory. So congratulations. We'll let everybody know how that works out. Guys, what is the date today? Today is 12 May 2009. This is the fourth hour of the day, so it is the second hour of the afternoon program. And that means we're pretty close. We're only days away from the Dayton Hamfest, aren't we? Well, I can't go. Oh, you're only in the scene. Well, you're over in Missouri, I won't say. Yeah, but I'm poor. I can't go. Wait a minute. That's no excuse. We're all poor. If I put all available funds into the project, I would have enough for gasoline there and gasoline back. We're just gasoline there and then walking back? Oh man, they got a good election. Well, I'll tell you, for anybody who can make it, I know we've got Andrew and a lot of the other guys listening. They're going to try to make it down there. We'll see what we can do. We're going to coordinate that still, forgive me, but I just talked to somebody today and I know that they can't make it, but for a different reason. So we're trying to double up and triple up as many people as we can. And the Dayton-Hara-Hamm Fest is this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It's only days away now. This is Tuesday. So if you're going to go down there, remember, take a sun hat. Because it's like today. We've got a real beautiful day here in Michigan. Cool enough that it'd make you feel comfortable, but clear enough that when you're done at the end of the day, you would be burned. And so this is the classic day that you normally see down there in the bottom of Ohio on the Dayton-Hamm Fest. Be ready with a nice sun hat, a booney hat, a cowboy hat, rice hat, you want to reenact Vietnam. Get out there with that rice hat. Actually, that's what it's for guys. That kind of weather we're talking about. Also take a poncho with you because just as easily it could get a little wet. And if it does, hey, you're not shutting anything down. So you want to be able to get out there into the parking lot and it is a big one. And there's going to be everything and anything from batteries to radios to handheld equipment, microphones. television screens, monitors, flat screens, ultra-flat screens, LCD screens, you name it, it's all there. From everything from 2 inch all the way up to mega depth. And everything in between. and uh... it's a lot of fun you never know what you're gonna find take a shopping list of what you need so that you can get rid of the uh... list first take care of all the things on that and then even though you're going on you might go on the night at one of those again maybe two of those back up the other one i got so you might find stuff along the way and that's why we also recommend you take like either a you know i always watch it is picked up another one by the way these little two wheel shopping carts these make for you know go into the store Usually, at the yard sales you'll find them for a dollar or two or people are tossing them out. Well, grab them and hang on to them. But ideally, if you can, I would take the garden cart along like if you got a little wheel burrow, well actually more like a kitty wagon. The advantage there is it's stable. You've got to remember you've got little side walls. You don't know what you're going to run into and it's going to be heavier than you want to carry all the way back to where you have to park. Now you're going to thank Mark when I explain this to you because most people really don't figure that part out. You know guys, butter knife, spike, it only weighs 35 pounds and all you've got to do is carry it well in your mind you're going back to the car. But meanwhile, as you walk that first quarter mile, your arms get heavier and heavier. And, well, it didn't seem like it was this far when you're walking with nothing and you're carrying nothing in your arms. But when you've got a 35 pound piece of whatever, and you've got something in the duffel bag or the backpack, and you've got something in the shoulder bag, and by the way, don't forget, it'll be warm. Trust me, a little two wheel dolly, a cart, I don't care what you take will make a big difference. And guys, when you buy something, the guy that's the vendor, they're not thieves, you can leave the stuff with them and go get the cart when you finally need it and walk back and pick up the stuff. And then you can just drag it around with you to make sure that when the time comes and you find your next goodie, you don't have to make another trip. Anyway, when I picked this up, I didn't notice that sharp edge, but now I'm really noticing it. and it's written the rib cage to worry me arm in the wrong spot in the right of life that yeah the muscle doesn't want to work quite the way it was supposed to and i can understand why you know well i want to bring it up you bungee cords and a little bit of netting if you can you never know exactly what shape things are going to be right and that is a good point are you can find these car nets the ones you know the cargo that is going the trunks uh... usually they're there for like people are each towards the back towards the seats you can use a forward area or vice versa Those things are laying around. A lot of times you might even have one in your car and you didn't even know it was there. So it's worth picking up and taking along. Again, dollar store for the bungee cords, guys. Come on. We can make it cheap and it'll do enough to get you out of the parking lot. Let's put it that way. Or a nice hand cut clothes line. Yeah, there we go. So anyway, I know we have a butter axe. He's got a few things he wanted to touch on. Spike, what else did you have real quick? Anything? I was just listening and going along with you guys as you went. okay very serious here or but i have to go ahead and jump in there and i know you had stuff you want to bring up on here and again grab your pen and paper people okay well the first one of these is just a news item but i found it entertaining so i thought i'd mention it to you uh... i made a tiny of this one so this one is tiny you are all dot com slash qt that's we back tango you and that uniform november e and that echo mike So that's tinyurl.com slash quibectango uniform november echo mike. What that will take you to is a Bloomberg article. And what they're saying is, this is interesting that a controlled press is putting this out. One of the virus guys is saying, oh gee, you know, the recently released, I'm sorry, recently appearing flu may have been an accidental creation. What I find interesting about that is accidental kind of implies man-made and we already knew that. But it's interesting that they're dribbling that little concept out onto the news stream. Maybe this guy is such a big shot in the virus world that people have to listen to him and they can't completely quash what he's saying. So they're putting their spin on it and emphasizing the accidental part. I have very little doubt that this thing was deliberately cooked up in a lab and that there are 10 more variants sitting on the shelf waiting their turn. Weapons deployed and that's the whole thing. Why Mexico again? Because if that had happened in the US, the way they described it, especially the way they described this thing, starting guys. It would have been flagged immediately. They could not get away with it inside the United States, so they went with a second target area that still had contact, and the only way they could allow it to proceed to, you know, the other way could advance is if they left the border open, which is totally contrary to any and all quarantine procedures, especially between two sovereign nations. The border would be easily secured. I don't care what lie they come up with. Bottom line, you could shut it off. It's just flat out. Sorry guys, no cars coming north. But I just have to go it. No you don't. And this is how it works. I'm sorry, but this is national border. The gate is down. The fence is down. The wall is up. Sorry, doesn't work any other way. Go on back. We'll let you know when you can come back across. You guys take care of your problems on that side. In reverse order, if the outbreak were here in the United States, it would be the same scenario. You lock the border down, you would maintain containment here, and everybody would have to stay put. That would be common sense. Well, there's no... ...the Mexicans are perfectly capable of blocking their border for incoming. They do it on their southern border. They shoot to kill. Yeah. And when they capture people, they put them to six months of hard labor and then fling them back over the fence. They complain if we actually deport somebody on an airline or a bus or something, but what they do to the people on the southern border is no comparison. Uh oh, I sound like somebody is having some pop it sounds like. That was me. Uh oh, you got to remember. Well anyway, I'll tell you what, go ahead and give it a tiny URL again please, butternight. Okay, that's tinyurl.com slash Cui Bectango, Uniform November. Okay, and then you said you had more, so go ahead please. Okay, the second one is more along the lines of what Butter Knife usually talks about. We have mentioned some of these things in previous programs, but we're getting new people all the time. And there is a coupon code that's active for only two days, so it won't wait until Friday. The vendor that I wanted to mention is an outfit called Enco. We have talked about them before. They sell machine tools, lubricants, abrasives, all that kind of machine shop type stuff. Their website is use-enco.com. That's u-s-e dash enco.com. E-N-C-O. They have two promo codes. One of them is Whiskey Bravo, Mike Yankee, Delta Romeo. The second one is Whiskey Bravo Romeo Mike 99. Between the two of them you get 10% off and free shipping for any web order over $99. This is worthwhile. The 10% is not necessarily a big deal. It's $10 for a $99 order. But free UPS is perhaps double that depending on the particular item you're looking at. So what I would mention to people are the two items that we have hammered in the past, though it's been quite a while, both available from Enco. One of them is spindle oil. There's all butter knife in a spindle oil again. There are two varieties. There's number six light spindle oil and that's about 10 weight. And there's number 10 medium spindle oil, that's about 20 weight. And the 20 weight is approximately what people think of as sewing machine oil or three in one or four in one oil. Both of those are very, very useful general purpose stuff including weapons but all sorts of other machinery as well. They offer the spindle oil at about $18 a gallon or $78 for a 5 gallon pail. And a 5 gallon pail is a lot of that light or medium oil and could be subdivided and distributed a long, long way. So those are an excellent backstop. You know, a butter knife has significant quantities of CLP lying around, but I would not hesitate if I didn't have that. to use a gallon of light spindle oil as my backup lubricant, for instance, for supplying butter knives in the field. The second item is another one that we have mentioned and discussed in the past. This stuff is called CRC brand dry molly lube. This comes in an aerosol. It's a 16 ounce size. Aerosol contains 11 ounces. What's particularly useful about this stuff is that in a thin layer and then heat treated in your regular oven, this makes an excellent refinishing material for reconditioning AR mags that have seen better days. So if you've got some grubby, dirty old mags, you want to take them apart, wash them all off with the hot, soapy water, change out any parts you need. But before you put them together, get that shell nice and clean, strip off any paint, any of those horrible things you need to. And of course, be careful about fingerprints, but treat this stuff just like spray paint. A nice, light coat, hang it from a coating or wire or something so you're not getting your fingers all over it. Let it dry, toast it in the oven for 20 minutes or so at 200 or 250 degrees. Bake it on, and it will do a good job on your magazines. make them look just like new. That's called CRC Dry Moly Lube. They are offering this for $6.95 a can, which is a very good price. And if you buy four or more cans, they are offering it at $6.25 a can. So that starts out at an excellent price. And with these two coupon codes, if you're placing an order of $99 or more, you can get 10% off and you can get free UPS shipping. So let me repeat the promo codes one more time. There's Whiskey Bravo, Mike Yankee, Delta Romeo, that's the 10% off. And combine that with Whiskey Bravo, Romeo Mike, 9-9. And that's the free shipping over 99. And the combination of the two can save you some significant dollars. Again, one of the things, well, yeah, the shipping, especially with some of these items, you're looking at fluid. It's more than a pint is a pound because obviously it's not water, guys, a little denser. So if you were to actually looking at your savings in shipping is where you're really going to make the plus on this. Right, it may be a little lighter, a little heavier than water, but it's also contained in a steel can and then there's cardboard box. It does add up. That's right. So take advantage of this while we can. Go ahead and give all the contact information for that one more time. And also list the items again for everybody that's listening. Correct. The website is useencode.com. That is u-s-e-n-c-o.com. The items that I'm calling out, that I repeatedly call out, are spindle oil. And you can just search on spindle and hit the link for oil. There is number 10 medium oil in 1 and 5 gallons. And there is number 6 light spindle oil in 1 and 5 gallons. There are about $18 for a gallon and about $78 for a 5 gallon pail. And the second item that I recommend, those are both mobile brand. Those are, you know, that's an excellent, you know, manufactured product there. And the second item is CRC brand. That's Charlie Romeo Charlie brand dry molly lube. If you see the green aerosol can you hit the right spot. And that is $6.95 per can at $6.25 each if you buy four or more. So unless you're mixing and matching different oils, if you get a five gallon pail, if you get two or three gallons of one of them, two or three gallons of the other. If you buy these aerosols by the dozen, you'll get an even case quantity in a nice box. That might be worthwhile being aware of. So the case quantity on the aerosols is 12. You get the price break at four, but if you get a nice finely fit cardboard box with it, if you're buying multiples of 12. These cans are good for about 10 magazines. So, one can is good for refinishing about ten magazines. Oh, I should give the promo codes one more time. Yes. Alright, the promo codes are Whiskey Bravo, Mike, Yankee, Delta Romeo. And the second promo code is Whiskey Bravo, Romeo Mike, 9-9. Now, anything else on supply and support? That's what I have. This one is only good for two days. This offer expires 5-13-09 and it's only good for web orders. So I wanted to whisk this onto the air while it's still live. This one can't wait until Friday. That's why I called in today. Very good. So again, for anybody else who's listening, if you have the time, remember, and if you have the resources, this is stuff that is not going to go bad on the shelf. That's the one thing you don't have to worry about. I don't know. What's the expiration date on this stuff? Any idea? That oil's been sitting in the ground in raw form for many, many years. Are you sure? I mean, after all, I bought bleach the other day and it had an expiration date. And toilet paper had an expiration date. And plastic bags. We bought it outdated, yes. And the plastic bags, especially those polymers. I was really worried about that. And so I would just think that with a goof situation with these net cases and the control freaks, there's got to be an expiration date on the oil and the cans now. But for all of you that are listening, deep supply and support. Remember, this also would help with a 510 project with regard to being able to supply either a fire team or a squad. Of course, the idea is for constant resupply and replacement. One of the things to remember is This is a consumable. Lubricants are something that when the time comes, you're thinking, well, I've got to use it only once every so many days, or I might even use it once every day. Well, once every day adds up in that little container, or even a larger container, doesn't take long to empty. Especially when you're into a regimen, and it's not just you, it's five other people, or 10 other people, or it could be a platoon. Right, these products can also be used in different ways to stretch other products. For instance, suppose you have your favorite firearms lubricant or protectant or what not that you're using inside the action. You may want to get a rag-all oily with the light spindle oil and use that for all of the exterior work on the thing. That will save the lubricant that you're using internally. And again, it's kind of like, well, of course, we're not watering it down. What we're doing is actually stretching the lifespan of the material that we do have on hand while still getting most of the comparable benefits with the lubricant or with the surface material that we're more akin to. Because this is going to be an issue. POL, even the rags, like we've said, even rags when you've used them should be saved. Obviously, for fire starters they're fantastic. Well, also be aware of the notorious oily rag and the spontaneous combustion. Always keep them in a metal can someplace. Right. We'll forget that sound. You hear that sound? Everybody knows what it is. And then you hear that crackle, crackle, crackle. It's like, hey, how'd that get started? Familiar to every boy scout who has ever cheated on firemaking. Yeah, that or made the mistake of, well, what? I can start the bonfire with this quart of gasoline in no time. No, don't. Oh, man. Anyway. I used to have eyebrows, though. Come back. Looks like we need those anyway. Well, again, solutions, and that's just completely about the problems, guys, and one of the things, perishables, lubricants, greases, any of the materials like that. If you see stuff that people are getting rid of, where they might have partial containers. Don't even hesitate. Grease doesn't go bad. Oil isn't going bad. If there's a partial container or something, somebody's just cleaning off their shelves and putting it down by their head, you know what? Consolidate the stuff. First of all, obviously, inspect it. It's pretty easy to tell what's what. But a lot of times it's just people have brand new stuff circa maybe a decade old. that's a perfectly serviceable you may have to actually re-container it guess what if you save some of the other stuff that you've used you can put it right into a comparable container but more sophisticated the reason I bring that up is a lot of the stuff was in the old cardboard cans silvered on the inside tin top and bottom well the can looks like it's getting a little questionable starting to look a little rough open it up pour everything right into one of these plastic containers recovered from one of the gas stations remember go after your truck stop a lot of oils used there You can pick up whatever respective container is needed size and dimension wise and also with regard to even type. Remember if you've got a good cap there's nothing like glass for petroleum products. Oh yes. Well again that's indefinite then. Of course the only thing is the dropping part but we were careful there and again glass was used for how many... Yeah we didn't want to do that. Yeah how long was glass in service before we went to all of these other wonderful toys that we've got today. So, cardboard cans is probably the best example. That was the shift out, way from glass towards that. That was the miracle tool for the time being. Now everything is plastic. That's because the oil companies decided to promote themselves 100%. I mean, after all, who made the plastic? Oh, that's right. The same people who made the oil inside. They get to double bill. They also shave the shipping cost a little bit. It's not their problem how much of that stuff ends up in the landfill. Exactly. Now, real quick here, butter knife we have, of course we have our regular program, UNI Fridays, Quartermaster Friday. So I just want to remind everybody that that's where we really go right down the shopping list, so to speak. Anything new, anything exotic, anything interesting. Useful tools for maintaining the technology. If anybody is interested or if they'd like to offer input. Remember we have the call in line and if anybody has a better idea, think, wait a minute, I can do that, but I've got this. Well, fantastic. We'd like to hear about it. If you believe that it's a better solution, put it out before everybody. We've got a lot of people out there testing and experimenting. We'll try it to see how it works. And you may be amazed. You become the standard for the and That's one of the most common mistakes it's made. Don't be afraid to ask a question, especially in the Patriot effort. We don't have a problem with it. Other organizations, where you see that as an irregular public fool system, that's not what's going to happen with us. Just reverse. You've got a question, we'll try to answer it. If we can't, don't have the answer offhand. Then we'll make the point, dig it up, and if you pay attention, you'll find that if we don't offer the information immediately, it'll probably be within the next day or two. Just make sure that you've got it where you need it. One of the things we have requested on the Friday night program, we haven't gotten any response at this point. I have brought out on the air a couple of my favorite vendors for bulk foods. wholesale foods and so on. I have encouraged people to get on the air or email us or something. If they have good vendors in their area, we will put it on the air. Otherwise, we'll spend that entire hour getting everybody in my area of operation up to speed and you guys can go hunting for your food somewhere else. of it on Safari once again. I didn't mean to stop on you there, but you are here at a 30. It's just 6.30 Eastern time, which is okay. At least you caught us on here, so that's a good thing. So are we expecting you and not that it's required? Yes, it is. We are, but in fact, Dom was going to have to back up again. So anyway, anything new? First of all, I do know your book is finished. For everybody who missed that, we had you up the other day. We want to make sure we did follow up on that. How are things looking response wise? A little flow, but we did get some and I was able to give you guys a donation to help you out. Hopefully it saved the day. We appreciate that and thank you. In fact, I will say it on the air again. Thank you for the support. Everybody, we met the deadlines that were needed. And in the process course, actually I've got another stack of how many here? Let's see, one, two, three, four, five, six. Eight more of the NBC equipment defense and training DVDs are right here, all ready to go out. We just shot a stack of them out this afternoon and a couple of good sized boxes with a whole bunch of stuff through several of the different chip points. We don't use just one, we use several different locations. So again, thank you and thank you to all our friends for responding the way that they did. I know that Edward greatly appreciates it because again he is spending a lot of time to make sure the network is up and online and to make sure that everything is plugged in and working the way it is supposed to. So we appreciate the support. So anyway before we go any farther because Butter Knife and myself are right here but give us all the information. First of all tell everybody what you did because a lot of people don't know that this latest book is finished and this is like the next step Beyond the original, also give us a little history. Your original book isn't just a regular cover price anymore now, is it? No, in fact, for those of you who don't know, my original book was Buckshot's Modern Trapping Guide. It went on a privilege three years ago and since then, last winter, the highest I saw at the 04 for signed autographed copies was $329. It was generally running between 50 to 129 for regular displaying copies in good shape. So there was obviously quite a demand for my book. So the next level and made a survival trap for now 10 years later and it's obviously quite a good investment over the years. If it's together and if the world falls apart, it'll be the one book you'll be glad you bought. Because it teaches you trapping techniques and snaring techniques. It gives you the straight, down, and dirty. And for those of you who know my writing, I just give it to you straight. Not a bunch of fluff and nonsense. And we cover everything from trap or parrot, how to make them better. Take your snares, how to make them better, how to preserve. You could even get dozens of these and pack five gallon buckets and bury it across your area. Then you would always have snares are one of the lightest you can take them out set them up Typically weigh in two and a half to three pound range that does it will turn into if you were staring deer for instance 12 deer at 150 pounds apiece obviously is well worth a few bucks as snares cost you Now you need to know how to do it in the proper techniques and get step-by-step pictures that take you right through. It's selling for $19.95. For everybody who orders, who mentions the Intel report, the Intel report receives $5 support off Mark and Verify. I am helping. So we all end this together. So we all work together. And you're going to get a book that's going to be a collector's item. All you have to do is mention Intel report. Please autograph. Whatever you want, if you want it to somebody, just let me know. You can also get the DVDs at the same time so you know what you're doing. The DVDs, take all them little questions out of your mind and show you actual step by step and then catch it so you understand the results. And you can get all this at my website, it's www.snare-trapsurvive.com. or you can call me at 701-485-3528 and please leave a message. I'm very busy and I'm hard to get a hold of especially now that it's spring and the fish are running. The tasty fish are running. What's that? I see the tasty fish are running. Yeah, I just cut a nice six pound bite and you know what I'm going to be eating tonight. So there again real quick with regard to all the snares and technology that we are talking about you do offer on top of everything else you offer the snares and snare kits and packages which is part of demonstrating the technology that you have addressed in the books and you have worked out for yourself. So how do they get hold of all those goodies? One more time again on that. Same place go to the website and right above where the book is. You can see the link that says Survival Snaring DVDs and Snares. You click on there and you can get the Snare Kits. Snare Kits designed for a bug out kit. Small game, 6 medium game, 2 emergency gear snares, support wire, instructions, and it all comes in a nice cam up live fanny pack. It's 3 and a half pounds. grab that, throw it on, and if you were successful you'd be able to turn that into roughly 400 pounds of food out in the field. If you're really serious, the guys that are really getting it are ordering five to ten dozen at a time. And right, you just keep scrolling down and you can buy them by the dozens, by the ten dozens, whatever you want. And the 110 counterbears also on that page, which is probably the best small game trap ever in Venice. works like a big mouse trap. The better mouse trap. Once you understand how to use it, folds up, fits in your pocket, you can take rabbits and squirrels and forever with them. I still got some that I bought back in 1976 and I still have them and they still work. I'll also tell you how to preserve your traps to make them last that long too. And even if the world falls apart, you tell your homemade dies that you can collect from the wild. All this in the book. Frequently asked questions and survival fishing is also in the book. Through a bunch of different techniques I've learned over the years, everything from electric shock therapy for fish, to using gill nights, to trout lines, and what to buy and how to make them. So this is a survival trapping book but it also could be called survival trapping snaring and fishing book. I tried to cover as many angles as I could for you. Again the website www.snare-trashsurvive.com. or home load depending on how you want to look at it. Your backpack assembly, this is something that should be stuck in the system, should be part of your kit and left there, not pulled out and blade with, not borrowed from. It's one of the many tools that you'll have for deployment in the field. Now one of the other options is if you're going just with your combat load bearing gear, Remember, you're using a three-day pack or a butt pack and a combination of secondary diaphragms left and right. That's very popular with the vest nowadays. What's the dimension on this basic snare kit? On the actual bag, I think they're about 10 inches long, about 4 inches tall, maybe 3 inches wide. So the diaphragm, the little expandable popcorn pouches that are on either side, usually they're actually about that long or longer. This would slide right in either side of your utility clip-on backpack for the assault vest. A lot of them have a series of different rigs. It could be in its own pouch, which would be another option. I mean, separate from the pouch that you actually have it set up in, it could be inside that, but also mounted in a utility pouch that's standard for whatever type of assault vest system you're using. It can be hooked up and put it right inside the butt pack, especially since it's perfect in size, and can be stationed in and to the bottom so that as it needs to be accessed, it can be. But still, it's, again, not the first thing you're grabbing or other things that need to be on top as far as pyrotechnic, spare ammunition. But this is loaded so that you actually have a food production system that you're carrying with you. and very simple and easy to maintain. The idea behind this though is that it's either carried with your three-day kit slash your combat pack, your load-bearing equipment, or load-bearing vest, depending on the system you have, LBE slash, you know, LBD, load-bearing vest. And the other option is, of course, with your house pack or slash home kit. or a home load as we call it where you've got all the rest of the gear in the backpack and it's dropped at a base camp and used accordingly or dropped where you're going to be securing equipment and maybe operating from say that area moving into an operation or to make contact when moving through an area. That's where you have an opportunity to deploy the Snares or at least to have on standby in the event you need to get your switching from say a combat mode to survival mode to survival escape and evasion. This alleviates a lot of significant factors to include noise. Snares are silent, aren't they? And deadly. So when the time comes, the critter doesn't, you don't have to worry, the critter will be right there hanging and waiting when the time comes or flopping around a little bit. And that's where we get into storage. And butter knife, once we have them on the ground, then we're going to be putting them in the storage system, aren't we? Yeah, we're going to work on that, but if we're out in the field stocking up on groceries in the field, probably we're pretty much going to be consuming everything as fast as we can and what's left is dried. However, I would mention that surely nobody would use any of the equipment or expertise that Buckshot is offering here to secure your camp. That would, of course, not be playing fair. Don't use it for two-legged moose. There we go. No moose. However, if we could handle a 200 pound deer, I would think that it could... Well, we'll talk about that later. No, we wouldn't contemplate that thought. I would think that deer is a lot faster and harder than the average two-legged moose. I think they might be squawking a little louder than the moose too. technologies that are on the horizon from the weapons end. But what about from the trapping and anything new or unique that you're playing with right now that we just might not see in the book yet? Is that better knife, but you meant buckshot? Oh, I'm sorry. Well, actually, let's see. He's the one that knows about the trapping. I don't know. Yeah, I'm sorry, buckshot, please. I was directing that to you. That's all right. I'm working on a new survivor video. new plants that I found, you know, like wild asparagus, which is fantastic. And some new survival fishing methods, the how to set up in a coat. So you can actually be fishing and not be seeing, you know, little details like that. How to use a pothole to set up a quick camp. And how to make a three and a half pound coffee can and turn it into your own volcano stove. As a matter of fact, I put together something. In fact, it's within arm's reach to my left. Something I was taught to do years ago and I haven't had a chance to build one in probably 15 years. But Mr. One Gallon Can is actually your friend in so many different ways as a tool that I hate to get rid of them. I hate to crush them or smash them or do anything. There are so many different options with regard to empty cans and how they can be used. It's just like right now we may not have a direct absolute need. I got to have them now. But you can clean them up, wash them out. And the cool thing is that different cans, one size fits inside the other so that you're not just sitting there with one space and one can and a whole lot of empty space. But rather, kind of like a Chinese or a Russian puzzle where one can's inside the other, inside the other, inside the other, inside the other. and you're saving space and increasing the volume of available tools. Cans are a tool. There's so much you can do with them. They are a little bulky to store, but I hate to let one get out of my hands. Yeah, exactly. And that's especially the case. So again, that's going to be part of what you're incorporating in the next extension. As a video, are you looking at doing, let's say, a couple hours? Oh yeah, at least an hour and a half. I already got quite a bit. My alto worked out a new make your own oats and honey and candy food bar. You can make yourself at home. Glass rubber. Really cool technique of how to precook your rice and then dehydrate it. If you've never seen it, it lightens the rice that you're carrying. And it's phenomenal when you re-cook it how much. Like you use a quarter of a pot and that's all you add, the rice. And it will actually fill the puffs after you let it cook. It's a really cool technique. I'll definitely show you that in this video. It's a backpacker's trick to lighten up your load. It's a month if not a year once you've dehydrated it. And just different techniques like that. All these little tricks can really save you a lot of time. And as we all know that carries packs, every way you can lighten up your load helps in the long run. Well, especially when talking about lightening up the packs, remember we're trying to shave off as much weight as we can. One of the things that I see a lot of times is, well, I can handle it. Like we were talking earlier about going to the ham fest. Well, it's not that heavy and you have to lift it and you actually put it on your back and you walk for a little bit and you think, oh, I can handle this. Now, it is true, there are a couple factors here. Your backpack is going to get lighter, in fact it's going to get lighter than you want very quickly because you're going to be using up those consumables. But remember that every ounce added also burns calories. So, the one cool thing about this snare kit system is it's one of the few items where, yes, initially you're burning calories, but very quickly, once deployed or as it's being deployed over a period of time, you're supplementing and actually it's easily paying for itself tenfold with regard to calories and food stuff taken in, protein being a very efficient survival food, meat. That's one of the reasons. Trapping is an excellent choice, especially to keep people alive. You've got all of what you need to actually stay functional. You're looking at the additional energy, especially if you're looking at cold weather. This is always a problem. But one thing to keep in mind is trying to shave the weight down of your support equipment so that you're able to carry more in the way of ammunition, pyrotechnics, magazines, et cetera, et cetera. Everything adds up. So, the cool thing is that you've got a very efficient system here for the size of the package and for what you're carrying. You're going to be able to deploy it, use it quickly, get a response quickly, and then get on with the mission because you have what it is that's necessary to keep you functioning through the next 24 or 48 hours. And the snaring especially, I don't care what it is you're going to be grabbing there. Well, yeah, I don't know. Well, we'll see. Even possum, guys, as we know. You cover that of pretty much all the different foods in the new book, right? Oh, yeah, I didn't go directly in the past. One of those animals, it's almost impossible not to cut them. Yeah, and they just play dead for if you're really lucky and just lay there with one eye winking every once in a while to check to see if you're still around and then, oh, I gotta play dead some more, as we've seen in the past. Don't worry, in a moment, you won't be playing any... more. There we go. Okay. And remember that the things that are cheap for us to store up and easily stored tend to be heavily in the direction of carbs. That includes the bars that that Buckshot was discussing. What you catch tends to be a little heavier in proteins and fats and we need the fats. Really good. Now, you know, a good point on that note, as far as survival foods go, one of the things you were talking about before, porcupine, And needless to say, raccoon, as far as we're building up, we're actually getting a lot of calories. You're looking a lot of fat. People are going, oh, I'm on a diet. In the field, you're looking at burning a lot of calories, people. If it's cold, you're burning even more calories. So re-introducing additional calories into the system in whatever way that you can, especially in the, as I said, in the fat category to try and balance the types of other foods that you're taking in. It's critical that you have these materials on hand. You've got to be able to combine them, work them together. And getting wet will cost you a lot of calories. Yes. Well, remember, what do we use in the car to heat the engine? What do we use to cool the engine, guys, when it overheats? What do we use so that it stays at operating temperature? Although there's a little glucose in there, it's water that's used because it's a very efficient calorie transfer system. Now when it gets on your skin, it does the same thing it does in that radiator. But you didn't want it to do that. In fact, the colder it gets, well, The sooner you lose more and more core or body heat, and we have other problems to deal with, but at the very least, even if you can keep yourself warm and your body is doing that, remember it's eating up reserves. It's taking up the fats, taking up the effective, once you go through all of your fat reserves, it's going to start eating protein. The body's going to start taking muscle away because that's the next option that it has, and it'll start converting so that it tries to keep you operational. Well, you'll probably freeze to death before that anyway. Just a reminder, we don't want that to happen, so we're giving you the solutions. We've got the tools available to do it. That's where again, storage. Butternut, you mentioned drying by the way. I know that Buckshot has talked about this. You do cover drying in your new book, correct? No, I didn't cover it in the book, but I do have a DVD on it. Oh, there we go. Sorry about that. My Survivor Series. That's another click on. It's seven different videos I made and one of them we actually went out in the field and first I show you how to snare deer and then after you got the deer obviously you're gonna have to take care of it. I show you how to make a smoker out in the woods and then we smoke the meat and I show you how to use the apple branches and leaves to add flavor out natural flavoring and let me tell you guys it's pretty orbital. It's the best jerky I've ever had. So there are solutions, again, especially with regard to transport. There are two ways to go with survival food process. Drying from the one direction, which is exactly what you described. And that's, of course, depending on how much time you have to linger in an area. The other technique, if you're in a hurry, is burning, is actually broiling. And by burning the outer surface, you actually preserve the core. protecting it from breakdown and from deterioration because of natural processes. Now let's be verbally correct here and call it searing. Yes. And again, you're talking about covering the whole meat. This is one of the techniques that has been proposed, actually been used extensively in training operations, and has been demonstrated in survival, escape, and evasion for years. especially if you're able to actually kill a larger animal. And with a snare, you're looking at being able to take a deer down or taking a large animal down in a survival situation. We're not talking about hunting every day. Of course, I guess you could do it every day if you had to. But we're looking at survival, and it's only in a unique situation. Remember also, you can only eat so much and carry so much. You kill a deer, you're looking at how many pounds of meat. You may not be able to dry it immediately, but remember that if you sear it, if you actually broil it slash char it, you can carry it to another location. You can carve off the components that are charred or have been seared to protect the meat, and then you can still strip it and dry it in another location. The idea though is to be able to transport it. That's the biggest problem. If you have raw meat, you're going to look at bugs and critters trying to access it. Remember, you've got natural breakdown of the tissue, et cetera, et cetera. These are all things that have to be taken into consideration. And the warmer the environment, the greater the threat of breakdown of the material is. So you've got to have a solution to deal with that. Salting has been used, peppering has been used, pickling has been used for years, all three of those. But if all else fails, one of the oldest techniques, going back to Moang Schmunk and the cavemen. You know, Moang Schmunk was the leader in development and much of the procurement technology that, oh wait a minute, Butterknife, probably, that's probably one of your descendants. You're a descendant of that man. Mowenks make the key. Oh my goodness, and you're passing on those skills again pretty cool Well, remember it salt to preserve things gets gets pretty heavy pretty fast But a single pocket knife will make you an infinite number of camp tools from Greenwood Yep, so we have a question we are getting close to top there I know we're gonna we're gonna get the music again here in a minute. We still got butter knife with us and buckshot give out all your information one more time so everybody will know how to get hold of you. Okay, pop over to the website www.snare or email me at prohumanamical71. I believe a message, I am super. Very good. So at least people will be able to access you. One more time on that number just to be safe. Seven. In your series, do you cover any of the other more conventional but unique use like with the crossbow or any of the bolos or even spear? I know some people have covered that. Fluted spear is one that was very popular and being promoted for the longest time. No, I don't get into any of those toys. survival. I have the AR-7 survival rifle which I highly recommend. If you're not actual in the front lines, more of a survival rifle. I showed a lot of different trapping and snaring. Once you learn how it's like everything else is just playing games, it's a real hard time with that. I did show making, taking like a spear handle out in the field. I was going to say a frog jig would be kind of nice. 22 will save you a lot of scratches in dealing with the critter that you snagged. But I want to jump on that 500 pound boar and ride him for another 300 yards while trying to stab him to death with a sharp pointing stick. Don't you? There we go. And there was a lesson that Spike just learned. The detox mix was not sipping whiskey. Oh no! Collectors, outdoor enthusiasts, survivalists.
