Mark Koernke opened the August 11, 2010 morning broadcast with discussion of Weapons Wednesday, focusing on surplus rifles and ammunition sourcing. He provided detailed technical guidance on identifying and maintaining various military rifles including M95 Steyr straight-pulls, M91 Mosin-Nagants, K98 Mausers, and Carcano rifles, emphasizing the importance of correct ammunition matching, stripper clip systems, and barrel maintenance. Koernke discussed ammunition availability from vendors like Aim Surplus and Main Military, advised listeners on ammunition storage and reloading practices, and covered field equipment recommendations including wool combat sweaters and proper layering for operational readiness. He also addressed rifle accuracy issues, barrel recrowning techniques, and the history of surplus Chinese K98s imported to the United States.
Welcome to the Phyllis Schlathly Report, a daily look at the significant issues of our time from an experienced conservative perspective. Mrs. Schlathly is president of Eagle Forum, a leading force in the pro-family movement since 1972. And now, here's Mrs. Schlathly. This year, 2010, could be the most important year of our time. The November election will determine whether Barack Obama succeeds in his goal of, as he said, fundamentally transforming the United States, or whether we stop spending our nation into what our government now admits is unsustainable debt that will burden our children and grandchildren. We must make a solid right turn, starting with the typical American can-do attitude. So I think conservatives should be of good cheer. The American people are waking up. Tea parties continue to attract citizens who have never before been involved in politics. Incumbent members of Congress are afraid to hold town hall meetings because their constituents keep repeating that they do not want Obamacare. People now realize that the stimulus spending plan created only government jobs and that the health care bill is a scam because it means higher taxes, less choice, and poorer health care. We used to be taught that all problems have solutions in federal spending and agencies, but now the majority of Americans realize, as Ronald Reagan said, that government is the problem, not the solution. No politician wants to be called a liberal anymore. We now know that we can win. When I took on the 10-year battle against the Equal Rights Amendment, absolutely nobody thought we had any chance to win. But we did. Our ERA victory proved that the grassroots can rise up and defeat all the powers that be, including three presidents, nearly all public officials, 99% of the media, big money, and even Hollywood. Then came Ronald Reagan's victories in 1980 and 1984. The Gallup Poll now reports that 40% of Americans describe their political views as conservative and only 21% as liberal. This has been the Phyllis Schlafly Report, a program dedicated to preserving traditional values. And it's your opinions and comments that help to shape this broadcast, so write us at Eagle Forum Radio, Alton, Illinois, 62002, because your views count. Once again, that's Eagle Forum Radio, Alton, Illinois, 62002. And join us each weekday as we explore today's most important issues on the Phyllis Schlafly Report. The Intelligence Report, Mark and Don, every morning at 6am Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. As the National Rifle Association says, it's not guns that kill people, it's maneuvers. You can get shot in an armed man. You can harvest them. The Intelligence Report, Mark and Don, every morning at 6am Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. I want the people to know that they still have two out of three branches of the government working for them and that ain't bad. I've not yet begun to file my step. I dreamed the other night that, while 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 the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. 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 for those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally 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, this is 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? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God for freedom by him, as I awoke he'd vanished in the mist 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Morning Intelligence Report, I'm Mark Cronke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and there's both on behind the lines in occupied territories. Southwest E's and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... Micro Effect Network in the morning. We're also on Liberty Tree Radio dot 4 mg dot com. We're on AM and FM Micro Station, CB base station, Ultra Net Technologies both east and west of the Mississippi along with Southern and Central, Alaska. We're on the homework network on the eastern seaboard from the top of Maine to the bottom of Florida, from the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico. Headed towards Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma and chunk of Nebraska. Rose one. Oh, that's right. The third Wyoming and Iowa slash highway hide all of our friends out there especially working the fields right now. We're headed to work on the highway then leaping back over the big money. The missing towards who the smoke sets right the whole the Ridge the Golden Spike Project working from east to west and west to east to bridge that obstacle. Congratulations. The restaurant crews the grammar teams and all the other wonderful people out there doing their part. Well, it is a... Oh my goodness, it is the 11th of August, the second year of Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a Kade? Why, yes, it is. It is the 11th of August. That means it is by old earth calendar 2010 by the way, the year. It is 705. Oh, forgive me, it's 605, 705 out there on the plane. It's 605 over there on the left coast. Means you guys are supposed to be getting up this morning. Most importantly though, not only is it the 11th, but it is Weapons Wednesdays. We're gonna be covering arms and equipment systems and support up at South there that's useful, things you need and where to go to get it, trying to get answers, not just go, hey, by the way, look for this. to find better gear. So we're gonna see what you can do. Or at least, you know, gear in general, but better prices. It's better. You need as much you can get your hands on. It is a beautiful Wednesday. Reach over. Yeah, well you put the alarm clock on. I always warn you about that. So here we go. Hold on. Ah, smell that cup. Warm, be careful there. There we go. Blow it off a little bit. All of the desert, emaciated, no mutilation. Some of them looking pregnant before their years. Well, that's right. From not eating. Ethiopian coffee beans. That's right, Ethiopian toenail blend. Oh, I can be sure. I want to say thank you. It was like a tongue-in-cheek gift from one of our friends. But I get to strain your teeth. Remember, use your teeth as strainers, guys. It's like when you're drinking wine out of a broken bottle. You see that cool scene they always show where you know the guy at different times in a movie will put the bottle and just lift up and pull out what he does. do is you actually get your teeth that way if there's any chunks that got through our strainers we don't we use the older machine without the paper filter and just bigger holes just make sure those little holes little bolt tight just don't make it through the wrong spot you'll be picking out her teeth forever as it is so strong express direction there whoa good so good in general so you'll it just course them through your veins like popping it all the way back touch on is Krampus rifles a lot of you guys are gonna be finding out that there are certain weapons you have that first of all I don't know what the hell that is but I better figure it out. This means breaking up books and the other thing is once you do figure out what it is make sure you've got the right ammunition for it okay in other words I have to go out and buy some but you know if you find it and it looks like it's a little odd, but look at all over the place, I can't find it. Well, it'd be a good idea when you do find it, at least by 200 rounds of whatever right away. Let me give you an example. First of all, I may not find that much of this lying around. M95 Steyr straight poles. There's also, by the way, M1906s. There's a whole bunch of these, but the most common right now is the M95 Steyr straight pole. There were a bunch of those that came in. Needless to say, those are rifles like a lot of the K98s and like a lot of the M91 Nagats guys. Well the starter is unique because of the straight bolt. Now another thing about it, it's a man-lincher system. You do so much with the stock as it does with the man-lincher stripper eclipse. The man-lincher carcano works the same way. It has a man-lincher stripper. It actually makes it a man-lincher carcano. Everything else is a giant guys, hate to tell you. The stripper system is a man-lincher system. And what this is, like the D-clip on the M1 Garand, is in order for the magazine to work at all, you have to have a specially made stripper. It is designed for a man-winger kit clip that holds everything in place, but the magazine will retain the spring. It's usually a simple piece of metal that goes right up through the magazine well. But that doesn't do anything other than just put pure on the area where the D-clip is restricted. If you don't forgive me the block or the stripper clip, if you don't have it, then guess what? You are in trouble. Why? Well, a very sophisticated rifle. It is bolt actually by the way. A very straight bolt. In this case with the Carcano as we mentioned, that conventional turn bolt. Back down stripper clips. It's not fair enough. There are people that have literally cases. Most people just haven't connected. So you want to be first before everybody else starts to wonder where. you have an idea you just got to figure out how many you can afford and sometimes people want to charge an outrageous arm, leg and firstborn child others usually are fairly reasonable by comparison so you want to balance things out you don't want to pick a hundred of them up if it's going to cause the price of the next house payment that's not a good choice at least not right away you'll have to do increments if you make a deal on the quantity price that's the only variation right that probably say yeah okay I understand what you're doing and that's a good thing if you can't afford a quantity price do that but otherwise you can purchase a few here, just a few there. But the Stier straight pulls that are out there, the M95s are also unique in that they're in the 8x56 rimmed. It's an 8mm cartridge that is comparable to the Hungarian, Romanian, I think Iranians had a number of the straight pulls initially and most specifically the Stier straight pull of Austra. the austrians use the rifle extensively and they use other models but the ninety-five that a lot of those survived uh... the model nineteen oh six is playful actually heavier bigger robust in general moon a lot of those were destroyed guys uh... so in fact i remember a wave of those coming through broken bolts extracted for the nineteen oh six models but uh... a little different with regard to how the design in that uh... on the nineteen oh sixes of the nineteen uh... ten model variance of the magazine will farther stock and magwell reconfiguration which is very obvious when you ladies weapons side by side uh... still in the eight by fifty six are now i will warn you about something uh... let's not assume and then not test the ammunition the reason i say this because While the majority of the 95s that have all come in recently are in 8x56R, that's not the original chainring. The original is 8x5, and then there's an 8x52, even an 8x48R. Now, the 8x50 is the most common for the first generation military-applied steers. I suppose even then, but ammunition comes from only two sources that I know of. One is in the US, the other is in Europe. uh... the company from europe specializes in european odd calibers both commercial or hunting weapons which are really unique and then slash turn of the century pre-term of the century single shot and tubular fed mag and magazine fed rifles and the eight by fifty meet with her from anything and everything else that's out there because it was a transition cartridge it's a smokeless power powder cartridge but uh... in the old specifications for the uh... turnbolts or the uh... most uh... any of the uh... service room non-corrosive and the size you know dang you know the diameter of the what was the something that they again could save money bring the block these up to reach out farther do damage with what they hit with her etc so more and more influence from the modernist came into the firearms industries and the stars out there and what you may or may not be able to find ammunition depending upon what i quickly depending upon uh... which chamber but the about fifty six most common m ninety five are being offered for all these different locations ammunition will typically world war two off from nineteen thirty nine to his latest nineteen fourth ammunition already in the server group the boxes open to you separately otherwise ammunition comes in milpack but in the pack like a few strippers than the rest of everything is in the stripper clip like the grand ammunition comes from the military arsenal everything's on the people already to go unless it's uh... around boxes three cartridge parentheses uh... m one home to the most of what you see for the grand is the m two ball and m two family of cartridges for the reward for the uh... nineteen oh three sprinkles the m nineteen oh three cartridge we redesignated m one and uh... a lot of that out there still though later on guys understand it could be used well of these unique cartridges uh... especially or or unique for them like the m ninety five or for the other we'll round for out there that partisan one of the companies that quasi russian slash con subcontracted with a bunch of the eastern european countries and the very spring up already producing stuff or tooling to finish up the job right facing a lot pretty person is that he is a non corrosive with modern powder for a l so he's not corrosive or some will be disappointed eastern europe and anybody could anything there or we want you to do is uh... you know something there that would be useful for now even everything from eight millimeter kurt that's the mp44 assault rifle carter so if you think you need ammunition for one of those and you didn't find it guess what they're making brand new fact about eight millimeter kurt is so that also means that there's a lot of other stuff 765 argentine 303 those aren't super coming harder to find in a nice load or a clean load or a liable load two parts on this parallel chances are it will be with you. All of ours are unique 6.5 karakon 35 karakon 6.5 dutch six point five Dutch Ritz point five Swedish there's a there's that is a beautiful load the six point five Swedish all six point five they're pretty much performing in the same way but the six point five Swedish actually performs comparably to say eight millimeter miles or thirty out you know by some people standards not by mine uh... in that it's uh... six point five and they kept the loads into the battle the light rifle range that's most important to remember because when you pick up a tool on the toolbox you want that tool to work and you want it to do the right job Here's the selection. 6.5, Swedish for instance. Remember that the Japanese rounds are semi-rimmed. Something to think about when you're reloading if you're refabricating cases from something else. You want to look at that. You want to double check your specs to make sure that you've got the right brass for the job. You can fabricate ammunition. This is something else. Getting into reloading guys. Your reloading dies, especially Rock Chucker, a big old brick doghouse. is designed with that weight so it can take the force and be able to actually use it. Well, it works that way with reloading. And many of your cases are metal there can actually be reformed as long as the base is the same. And even that, you can extrude a little bit depending on the process and again how patient you are and how much special chem gel you've got. There's gel that actually keeps the brass guy. It says if you're compressing it or moving it through a die, Ann will help you to make it more malleable. and be reformed as again, you're taking more common brass and using it to make some of the unique rounds that you might need. This is a plus because you're all setting up with a more modern case. Well, part of the thing that saved everybody a lot of that work, and that's not an accident, they don't want you to rebuild that skill. I do. They've allowed certain companies to bring stuff in. Preview Part of the Zone is the best exam. There's a whole bunch of others. I'm not gonna say I was correct. You get shot with them, you're dead. uh... unique calibers that are that are you know in so the number of different rifles for giving sir p l u s sir surplus dot com aim sir they have a bunch of the pretty partisan ammunition and a good location for some some of you in the country on the other hand main military military dot com main military dot com the i a m a military dot com get a chance uh... check them out that way and uh... go through their list what they have building give McCall to find out what they have on hand. That will give you a chance to ID what the cost is because remember guys, to regulate how much you buy at a time, I'm not going to tell you it's going to be cheap enough, it's now three level ammunition. Okay, that's just all there is to it. You're going to have to buy factory new in order to fill the needs that you have for ammunition requirements. Okay? Preview per the sound, box prime reloadable that again very a short wait or check offering how much they want then you got that picked out main military dot com main military dot com uh... aim surplus dot but what you found the ammunition star purchasing and then if need be clean about if you have the resources or at the very least but three caliber or fifty care fifty caliber can once you've got a full tag it and bag it would speak put it on the shelf forget about don't shoot another can. Why? Well, one or two cans. One can is minimal. Two cans can be ideal for these auxiliary. You don't just want to give them a couple magazines or a couple of stripper clips and go, here, use harsh language after that. Oh, great. Credible there. Thank you. Instead, you want to make sure that you have sufficient ammunition so that as a defender they can still participate in the action. And most of these rifles are very accurate as possible. Remember, as auxiliaries, we don't want them to expose ourselves. If you're handing out a weapon to a certain person where the out You can have some OJT if that's the case because you've already committed them to an operational system and only got so much to hand out. So before that happens, everybody, if they can, pick up a certain amount of ammunition for range use, cheap flinches, or use the ammunition that you wouldn't normally put in stuff that you know, eh, better use this up, it doesn't look too healthy. You can be looking tired, the brass, you know, not weak. Steel case and corrosive spray indefinitely. We still have ammunition from, for the K98 Mauser that we've shot for, from 1933. also some of them in the bank housing jacket which is a common for the german's and uh... and every time pull the trigger both of the range you're happy to the cup paper so works so that can be used as training animal if it looks like that you've inspected all around you have to get some of like now trust that i don't think it's got to the shelf was longer ammunition you use for training now one of their warning repeat warning will rubinson warning danger danger danger If you are going to use, you know, older ammunition, pay attention and inspect that you probably got with a rifle oxidation that's not a problem. Just understand that you're going to take that piece of brass after you've fired everything and you're going to take a hammering crush to get rid of it so that it never comes back. It never comes back. Remember like an old sailor, we don't want to come back again. We'll destroy the case in some way so that it's not a threat to any future operators. It might have a crack. That means that I really don't want to take any chances on storing that again. want to reload it necessarily. Oh, whap. Smack it and get rid of it. Here's your metal scrap. It'll be used for other things when the time comes. Okay. Safety first. First, you haven't been yapping at you for almost half an hour already. Oh no. It's weapons Wednesday and you still have to take. So you might be listening to us in a way that you can continue to hear my, Oh, hello, it's the end of the world. No, it's just the end of you being able to sit there because you got to get up and get to work. Well, before you do that, hold on. Let's grab one more. Oh, Come on, let's get another drink. Come on, okay, come on. To the lips. No, not into the eyeball. Oh, hand-eye coordination. You're not drunk. You're just tired. I understand that. Come on. Okay, well maybe you are drunk. I can't control that. Okay, come on. No, no, no, no. Anyway, hold up. Eyeballs, eyeballs becoming less, no, there's, yep, put your hand in front. Yep, you got five hands still. Okay, let's try this one more time. No, no, no. Staring at your hand. Cough there, bring it up to your lips. And Leslie Fish, who this is, and the name of the song is closed up we get to work that you can slap my mark in the microphone and listening I just believe if you're trying to find her there's an album she's got out called actually it's a Second Amendment album one of the songs in there is 30-06 actually I think there's two albums out there now she's got one that's Perhaps an underground one that was done by somebody else that took a bunch of reviews that can put it together. That happens in the filk industry. There are people who are creative. But, uh, Leslie Fish, L-E-S-L-I, it's Hosedown. You'll find that on YouTube and other places, by the way. And, well, is that the only thing Mark can do for you this morning? No, I can do better than that. I know I can if I'm a little creative here. Hold on a minute. Otherwise, it is a beautiful Wednesday. It is, uh, but means it's also probably time for you to go to work. If you're out there in a left c- You've gotten, you know, you put me on the clock so you could get yourself out of bed and you are not gonna call in sick today. It's kind of nice out where you are. It's not bad here. It's a great, blankety day. We're gonna get some rain they say, possibly for two days while they've done it. We're probably gonna get some rain here. It's not if it's just a wind. Everything has been lush. Everything is green. We didn't, we haven't really gotten our brown out yet. Here we are the first week of August and we normally get cooked. We would be, we have been hot. part, but we've gotten a lot of moisture, so everything stayed flush. We have lighter greens. We've got some areas that have cooked out a little bit, but that's because of the sun and the natural grass cycle, but not into the browns, not into the tans like with the dry, you know, the crispy leaves from lack of moisture and lots of heat. Lots of heat, but lots of green, more like headed towards tropical rainforest kind of stuff. Not that it's been a last, because we already know we've had some cold Michigan burps. off the lake, we had bubbles of coal that come in guys. And boy, when they hit, you really notice it during the summer months here where one minute it's 80 or 90 degrees and then later on in the evening or towards the evening it's like, ooh, we're down into the high 60s at the best, usually low 60s. And that really, summer clothing and you're already in your summer blood, so to speak, you're already acclimated and the cold air, and it happens. So be prepared for that. make sure that we understand that we had a lot of work to do here guys and uh... to do that you're going to be properly outfitted properly equipped properly properly uh... so another thing will trick there without ticket make sure that if you're going to be uh... you cover operation out there in the field uh... that you put in your backpack all combat sweater uh... ideally what's it take full-space even the whole field still take full-space looking at clothing guys uh... but a uh... field jacket liner up field pad liners set in a Holofil. That's a nice combination that's virtually a walking sleeping bag. We're heavy and not a lot of layer. I mean it's all one layer but it can easily ventilate. So where you might get colder and you're having to you know stand in place we're not gonna have to worry about you know anybody with any case of exposure. Wool sweater, that makes a big difference right there. Wool, preferably, combat slash military. Commando sweaters are your first choice simply because they're reinforced patches where they all need to be if you're going to be out in the field dragging yourself around in the woods, especially on the ground. But commando sweaters, any kind of wool combat sweater you can find, wool being the key there because if it gets wet it dries from the inside out based upon body heat. This is a good thing. Well, you know we're gonna do our part to find your solutions You're just gonna have to you know make the point to track them down I don't know a little sub note there if you can find them and we had them for a little bit We did not offer them up on the air or anything, but Norwegian combat sweaters some of you got them We have the commando sweaters, but the Norwegian sweater unique they were all the time before they dried up Norwood norway's not that big a country guys and certain companies like cheaper than dirt bought up ever was laying around in the system but very comfortable everybody that gets them loves them and will not part with them will not let them go effective learn to take care of them as I've told everybody once surplus only so much left on the docks on its gone typically because they built in 1988 and 1988 was 22 years ago we're not doing a replay on 1988 we can't hit the replay button you know like on the computer and go well redo it for me boot more boot more doesn't work that way So if you see it and you like it, my recommendation is buy extra. Don't hesitate, don't wait. If you do, you're going to be in trouble. I mean, as far as if you think you're going to get more later, I'm just going to go to the store and pick up a song. It doesn't work that way. Not with surplus anymore. Hasn't for a long time. Sizing. Remember, here's the other thing that is... and this is weird, but I'm going to bring up something. Guys, with regard to sizes on surplus, the biggest comes in first. Now that's a fact. I've dealt with the jobbers and the wholesalers for years and years and years. And I mean the people that bring all that stuff into it, cheaper than dirt and all the other people out there, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay. So in the process, whenever we've done this, we've noticed then we've tried to grab everything I can when the, especially when the first wave comes up, if it's from the jobbers slash the wholesalers, especially whatever reason, when it comes from overseas, the really big pile, you know, the first part of the in some cases. Well, you hang on to that if you can because there are going to be people where you're going to want to trade spot where they need larger sizes and they weren't thinking about or they all get more when you get more. And we tried to warn everybody. So then later on, it's like, I want a lot of a certain size. Well, that's good. The problem is possibly in these piles of circles they're sending in or however the bales are stacked in the other warehouse. Well, that's how they hit here. And the biggest ones typically come first. Just how they stack in the warehouse, how they've been stuffed. into a corner or whatever they probably just got them lined up for distribution when they sold to a country because most of these companies are rent a revolution company they sell to everyone everyone it's interesting they'll sell to the people they don't like cross the planet before the self the american people whenever possible right here we go let's do a little music break here all right hold on i know what i want this is for a second raider second hour for my voice and for all all the men there out there that morning there right here in Michigan and y'all know what this means for the second this one's for you as they say isn't that cool okay I think we can do this to world order oh Mark's having confusion there come on I'll bet you I can do the Raiders out there Great day, great raider day out there by the way. Overcast, satellites got a problem. Another technology, which by the way we've always had to look at it as a threat for the last 40 years. Contrary to everybody else thinking, oh, predator drones! That's been actually built since World War II. attack drills by the way the first one not built by us but built by oh that's right the german's anti-shipping use and then we copied and mimicked and built more of the same whenever we captured their stuff we didn't reinvent the wheel we literally copied it eggs or do you think the 3.5 inch pazooka came from there's an example right there we have the 2.35 we needed bigger guess what we just grabbed theirs when the Germans came out with a panzer shrek We went to town with it and ever since it was built and everybody's built copies or variations through a lot of the guided missile or electronic drone missiles or cruise missiles or whatever guys. They've been perfected progressively but they've been around now for 60 years or more technology. Oh yeah but it's so much yes it is. They've got neater eyeballs but you can watch the satellite feeds, the training feeds. over and over and over again. We've got hundreds of hours. You just go to seaband. Originally we were rebroadcasting these things on seaband to shoot them from one part of the country to the other. And you can listen and watch and monitor the entire test and evaluation and development of the systems. We know all about them. This gray overcast and the traveling weather for all you Raiders, everybody should know that. Don't snow the same way. That's your weather. For raiding operations, it's sort of saying in neutralize the target carrying a ride and a raid. to say hi and good morning all our friends here in Michigan. Do you think we're just talking way out on the left coast? Well, we know we've got to wake you guys up because right now it's 6 45 and did you look at the clock and realize that you're like going to work? Oh no, don't panic, don't panic. Stop, stop, stop. First of all, Coke, stick your head in the sink and take none. Do that hair fire thing. There you go. Yeah, fire. I saw that from the, you know, the smoking stuff coming out of the air, the flames coming out of the ears. Take a breath. Take another breath. Take one more breath. are you are to do you know are you thinking there you go now look down all look not even underpants on you to really been funny going out there front door real fast wouldn't you mark savior from that one again get back get back to the bedroom go get dressed way take another breath if you have to notice all the way listening are you listening like i told the breeder not going to go for a brief we might be different but he is there don't work anyway some underpants on. Oh, and an evil right now. Straight up. Anyway, get the buddy slippers off. Get the underpants and pants on. And you get to work here in a little bit. Put some whatever you feel. Feel good about. There you go. How's that? I'm just going to knock on that boy. Marshmallows let you freestyle on that one. Like you were freestyling a minute ago. Anyway, we have a lot of work to do today. We will have all ranges open here going up and online. Already shot some building panels. So, the battle is done. The guys are doing their say thank you. We will be constructing some new range and new site buildings for training operations. Everything's looking cool there. Like everybody is doing teach them how to use the modular system we've been coming up with. We're talking wood shipping pallet. Anything you can do with those. And it saves you a lot of time, especially for hasty construction. But anyway, it is a couple that we have noted. And hopefully you'll take note of. 291 Moise and they got, yes. but the Nagat comes in the 44 carbine, the folding bayonet, or the standard M91, which is the full-length barrel. A separate model, it is actually the other model of carbine that does not have the folding bayonet. That was an idea that came about later in the life of the Nagat. And there were many other types of short carbines built for cavalry and or transportation crews. All these rifles are very serviceably the standard down by either the czars or the officers or the officers politically correct engineering competent there because of their many different ideas that were brought forward not all of them in place to very the reason for the uh... bob and that being fixed to the uh... model forty four was well logic is that we did that were about building a scabbard and spending that money on the wall of the uh... bayonet but you also didn't lose the bad how can you lose it with virtually pin to the right not a bad idea. It's there and it's in place and when you don't pull out of sight, well, anyway. The carvings are serviceable and if you go to M91, Mois and they got spec sheets all over the internet. Guys have done all kinds of tests and evaluations. And the 91's accuracy and range, especially at maximum range, is only a hair short considering how much shorter the barrel is. 100 yards shorter, you know, effective accuracy. But it's interesting to note that again you're looking at a much shorter. Well some of you like the carbines and I'm not going to deride those at all. But remember this that the NAE got for the most part is what we call a placement rifle. Its mission will be to be you can either hand them out, you get a brace of five, they're $79.99 a piece, you know read that. Oh that's right $80, $79.95. Throw in a nickel, $80. But $80, $90, $100 a piece. you put five of those together you have five 30 caliber ammo cans underneath web gear hanging there for each of those rifles you've got yourself a nice handout weapon to give to troops however accuracy over volume fire the idea isn't that you just blaze the idea behind this is that for placement fire when you're buying the weapons of the barrel that key guys if the crowns if you have a bunch of these weapons are hand me down and it looks like there's a problem with accuracy that you seem to have a lot of flyers you know there was a bullet now first of all sandbag the weapon was part of the the shooter all right well that's quite one that's using it may not have had that much experience with a weapon and is not performing proper sandbag the weapon whatever pops bench rested perot table make sure that everything that support rifle marksmanship basics now if you see after five rounds you've got some floaters that just seem strange and some people we've been bentschwurst flash you know rack the rifle just pull the trigger very carefully pull the trigger the weapon while the advantage of uh... racking or bench bench uh... uh... mounting a rifle like that is that see is you know in the uh... use of the weapon is guaranteed point of impact is not in other words to find out what the barrels doing yeah you need five-round print and you want to see whether you have a straggler someplace or if you have a whole bunch of stragglers are all directions The reason I emphasize this is because you may need to recrown the barrel. Now there's two techniques, but one is back setting the rifling. That is the fact that machinists will do that for you because they can just as easily back set into the barrel the rifling. You'll crown it in that way. Now recrowning is where you actually re-pound the whole of the barrel and take all, you know, make it crisp again where the rifling breaks into the open air. This is where the circumference the inner band of that rifling, what's happened is it's got ch- and that affects the muzzle. Acc-setting, what you're doing is literally crisping everything up, tightening up the end, taking all the burrs off in the process, making sure the metal is clean and sharp. But the original crown is left intact because around back inside the barrel. That's not a bad st- that's not a bad process. We've done this with many K-98s who were tired, tired, tired. The, you know, real crisp brand new one's out of the box, guys. War II or pre-World War II or from Poland or whatever. I knew like we are but you know left in storage for 40-50 years nothing's gonna be strange about those it's really not been shot they were always strategic reserve. Well we're talking about where you get those K-98 you bought for $19.95 and you got them and most of them were okay but there's that one that whoa they'll look like the end of it was just you know sandpapered. Well we gotta make that real we gotta work what do we do? Well, it's only $19.95, it's not exactly an expensive weapon. We don't want to rebarrow right away, not if we don't have to. Good rifling. Well, that's when you have the thing back set into the barrel. Those contact points, when the bullet leaves, it leaves without any unusual influence to one side of the bullet or the other. Otherwise, you'll find your accuracy is way down, or it can be down quite a bit. Now, this is typically with types of K98s that came in for $19.95, no exaggeration. The good ones? how bad they were but for nineteen dollars how could you complain placement barrels at the time guys five dollars a barrel gee i guess it was a power where this happened is a bunch of the chinese stuff that was being typically destroyed guys over there part of what you're destroying all these k ninety eight mousers you got all year these were wet these were not let me say we're gifts from uh... communist russia and they're all the mousers that they captured from all the uh... those forces they were fighting world war two k-98 german mousers m-29 polish mousers check mousers uh... you name it variation of the k-98 and what happened is they just shipped them all in a big pile with the chinese they've already been used extensively by the russians so the chinese used them for their revolt you know when the the communist did then what they did is they stacked them in pile in the sides of mountains with no real maintenance or care and no p o l tender care no oil then the chinese were going to distract they had been running them over with bulldozer having them out they found out all you mean we can sell these in america and yes they did they sold the americans at the zone for twenty dollars you know the american bottom for about a dollar apiece or look at chinese exchange in the earlier days guys you know in the in the late eighties early nineties all year so anyway when those rifles were you came into the u.s. twenty dollars twenty seven dollars apiece you want to inspect them sometimes to be packaged deals they got down towards the end where they were so cheap it was twenty or you know twenty of them for a hundred dollars that's how cheap they were now out of that twenty eighteen were serviceable to your to make great that's both for anything you want to teach everybody uh... the uh... process of use of arms especially for drawing ceremony well you don't want a rifle that they're going to drop and break and you're going to cry about what you do use those rifles that were removed out of your great put them in the service Oh, that's how you do it. That's right. Remember, nothing is wasted and nothing is thrown away. If it's firearms or firearms parts, it's saved, categorized, cleaned up, paid, then put away and stored properly. Anyway, I hear the music. Talk about putting away. You better put away another cup of coffee. Oh, that's right. You're still sitting there? Well, it's time for you to go to work and the second wave is getting up here in a minute too, because it's, oh my goodness, almost seven o'clock way out on the left coast. 957, we're gonna take off for about 6 minutes here.
