Summary
Mark Koernke discussed weapons and preparedness on Weapons Wednesday, September 1, 2010. The episode focused extensively on AR-15 platform modifications, alternative calibers (5.45x39, 5.7mm FN, pistol calibers), and DIY firearm construction using minimal components and hand tools. Koernke covered practical considerations for building backup weapons, ammunition storage strategies, and the importance of maintaining older firearms like shotguns and bolt-action rifles. He also discussed camouflage patterns, optics selection on a budget, and referenced the film Red Dawn to illustrate shotgun effectiveness.

Redistribution is apparently a favorite word in the Obama administration. Zarr Berwick is on record as saying, excellent health care is by definition redistributional. And he went on to praise Britain's socialized medicine as a global treasure and said, I love it. Incidentally, Britain just announced big cuts in its health care, restrictions on hip and knee replacements, and cataract surgery and the closing of many nursing homes. Zar Buric admits that redistributing health care means rationing health care. Last year he admitted that the decision is not whether or not we will ration care. The decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open. Note the imperial we. That's the way Zar's talk. Like a typical arrogant totalitarian socialist Burke assumes that smart bureaucrats should make life and death decisions and spend the money belonging to those they disdain as dumb ordinary citizens.

Me and Telugu support Martin 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, you just file my file. The other night that 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. 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 hope the tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. It's 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. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number, you've traded in your name, you've given government control to those who do you harm, so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm, and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail, harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will have 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 stay, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God-given right, get the torture free, as I awoke he vanished in the midst of whence he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. Or even now as tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Micro effect network in the morning. We're also on libertytreeradio.4mg.com AM & FM Micros and Ultra Net Technologies both east and west of the Mississippi. with southern and central Olah. We're on the Hallmark 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 Lo-Yat, Texas, Oklahoma. Ooh, that big chunk of Nebraska. All clear fields are. Hey, highway, and then, oh, a big, long chunk of mountains and places too. Numerous, clear day. Hey, cool down last night, because we're getting into another month. What month could it be? No way. Anyway, subject's not just this hour, but next hour we're going to have a guest. Everything goes well. special guest and one of our group for you there to get prepared. If you're a notepad handy, if you're awake, if you're at a, oh my goodness, you're supposed to be awake right now, 12 of the week. Let's not do that if we can help get up. You want to get up down there and your second job, may it be your first job? Come on, you got two jobs to look forward to. That's variety. That means when you go to your first job, which, 16 hours, then you go to the other job, it's only good for 30 hours or 16 hours. Service opportunity with NAFTA and, look what NAFTA and GATT and that service economy has. DERICA! The interesting piece is looking at some of the updates on weapons resignals on the private vehicles on the horizon that might be showing up here pretty soon. Another variation on the active idea with regard to the ARS slash upper receivers again. See what happens. We kind of press everybody to start with the 545x39. And as a matter of fact while everybody was a little bit feet waiting for the other guy to develop the technology, not that it was that hard. Show up on the shotgun news, it's like a potpourri. the AR-15. It's become kind of dull in that respect. A lot of different companies doing the AR-15. Now part of this because of government conduct, it's because of popular advantages to all the one we said before. It's a piece of junk, but if you look on any single page spread you'll see a flat top 3's, medium barrel, short flash hiders, short flash hiders, no flash hiders, rolls, non-threaded barrels with standard crossy, every variation on picatinny you're done, you're on the picatinny rails, well I think I will say non-slip silica is like a really really big series. control point when you pull the trigger. But it's interesting, the next step, and this is something I've been promoting three different companies, three different indivi-oops actually, have already done research on dropping it down into the smaller cap. Now why would you do that? Well, actually the idea behind this was to cost accurate, but still cheapest, minimal part, minimal components to put this together. That way whoever is doing them in a leg if they were to produce these things, four five by thirty-nine is probably the best example. Now needless to say we already have the air that are in five four five. The envelope kept pushing everybody on that. A couple companies came out with it and everybody's bolt gun designs are the opportunity because I have an AR with a different caliber and it can be a magical. Now the reason I said minimal construction is using a 4140 chromoly tube or anything on it, the guy who makes it can actually offer to whoever else needs them automatic. And what's really cool about this was design is maintenance and operations. And it can be kept in a sheath on the Alice path. your recon pack, your heavy force, force operations pack, whatever you got, back up a second weapon or an weapon for certain missions. And be in the standard .223 caliber, you might be carrying the M16-18 family rifle in. It can be a long barrel or night that you want on the roof because the option to go with having a permanent fixed set of iron sights would be a good idea, but not on iron sights, lightweight, just at least having a set of line-up sights would be an option and an action receiver. cool thing is this will you do with something like that all five or five by thirty-nine is the cheapest ammunition out there in force right now impress for that but it could be two forty three winchester so he caliber you want combination suits your needs or performance of an air fifteen but with that inexpensive seem to be that this does is about the fact that the two to three drops off pretty familiar range by today's standard is fine long-range yes you can reach guys as people with match air fifteen But the problem is how much energy is left at the other end, and even if you have velocity, and you can modify the bullet, and you can create a super looking at 50 to 70 grains, and maybe 80 grains, it's just a lot of wobble bullet out there when you're stretching the 223 that way. It's true of any bullet with types of dimensions. On the other hand, having a 70 action to go on your AR, complete with them, the only thing is a muzzle compensator, guys, would be a good idea. But with that system in place, You can choose other calibers that are more compact and a caliber that's easily accessed. Other more caliber express your hands, good idea. Example is the new 5.7 FN round. Why not? Now there's already a bunch of problem is, I actually use the new round magazines and figuration and the problem is that they want 800 and a thousand dollars apiece for the upper. Nice idea. Concept is cool because you're two different calibers and you know one is massive magazine capacity. But the problem is the price. We're looking at trying to bring the cost down so that you can actually afford to field a lot of these uppers. And of course, if we don't see it out there in the industry, a system like that uses a 41, a 40-core MOLLE tube, custom one of the man barrel companies out there, and a few other parts made at home with conventional hand tools. Pretty well give you what you need. Now the other consideration is the Motti Griffin design, which This only cost about $350 per load to build, whatever the differential when it comes to building a Mardi Gras' German by however many and how much it's going to be. If you are a machinist, you're looking at how can I get this done? Look at the idea using a standard caliber, something that doesn't have too much recoil, let's not put a team frame, and yet is fairly common. Both guns, the other advantage is we can thread the flash fighter. It's not like there isn't a puck. Guys, you've got every barrel. We'll say this right off the court, any kinds of problems. The length of the barrel on the ality can be longer. You want to do this, a bolt upper receiver for the Air 15, is calculate so that whatever the best for length, to increase the length of the actually able to the powder there's no burn at the arrow that's the batch you want you don't want so long that you're going to actually start to see excessive drag because you can go too long with the barrel there you want a combination any muzzle flash you don't put the flash hider on it for the moment because down the road the option to go to something else where you have the barrel threaded good idea especially that's 41 40 chromoly tube custom and handmade and can be done very scaled down modi griffin 60 by 39 45 by 39 and several other types of calibers or off-riddle rifle upper receiver. The advantage is for the chaff, because of a conventional battle mode, a target at 300 yards or putting at least a, you know, again, a burden of getting a decent bullet going down range. Now, the balance is this. If you're building one for economy combined with the idea that you can use captured ammo, it's going to mean a caliber for the most part that's compared to the .223 after acknowledge. The .4 is comparable to the .8. You've got AKs and you use the 760x39 and performance is bifling. You're looking at a very 39 Rimmelie did you pick up on in front of you if you're starting to cannibalize off enemy ammunition. Remember you're carrying an AR-15. You're probably carrying something in 5.56. That means it can't beat another caliber. They certainly are. But chances are you're going to be carrying something you just want to be able to scale up as ammunition. This is why 5.39 is the first. by 39 is almost a neck and neck parallel like the 57. Now the 57 FN and pistol calibers. Team come on guys, what kind of felt recoil you're going to see with something like that. Vantage of that. Not that the Air 15 has any significant recoil either. The very nature of Smir's design is such that it's very comfortable that you have to acknowledge about the Air 15 platform. The Air 15 weapon system. In a 57 or a pistol caliber, we've already seen 9mm, we've already seen 45 and sub guns made up with the Air 15. system. High point carving we've mentioned many times on the earth, which I still run. Project is something solution in the field or in the field because pain ammo guys can happen. It's going to happen. Expels temporarily. You harvest a sentry to get all those good bags and goodies and then you go on your merry way. So something might be needed or another caliber may be used to drag marks, you need cleaning and the headgear. Whoever's out there, of course, it's the only bugger. It's kind of like a Jones. Remember, you need a Jones when he's in the U-Bolt for you. snuck into that Yubo complex onto the eyes and he takes out the first guy and the hand on and he needs a hat and the other guy shows up shape up some equipment because it just ain't gonna fit the lengthwise in the body or especially in the arms and the legs with other dimensions depending upon how small the guys are prioritizing their stuff to wear rifles like we were talking about that 50-50 on one is not your first choice just fine so it has some cotton in there it'll soak up some debris you know you use somebody's camouflage uniform. Oh, I hate to do that, but it's all you got. It can be washed up, it'll fret a little bit. They'll do better at soft-up. For the soft-up, some shit is not just lamenting about the problem. We need you guys to pitch in and help us. Up with another system. Now, I'm going to hint again. Fishinatos. Another consideration. Coming up with like other weapons. The Velma used a tubular stock. Velma 62 has been done. It's been pragged. We picked up for a summer round for clunker parts. a base system because somebody goes, well, if you use the buffer standard M16, or another cool thing is, remember the base of that buffer tube, if you wanted to, you know, say, cheek, it raises up and down variable with very flat metal of whatever kind. You could use a clunker screw from ore and others, there you go. All the cool things you can come up with, you start thinking about how to make something a little, you know, cruder but effective. Because there are some finishes out there, but all else fails, you can crinkle for, you can go nevel for them, you can go flat. I guess if you want to go gloss pink and razor burgundy you can guys. Cool, but I think we want tactical colors. So we'll go with flat colors and we'll go with Mr. Spray Can in whatever configuration. Hey, whatever rocks your boat, you try it, experiment. The British Enfield, number four mark one, Eurasian beyond that, and there's so many letters that are designed to ID different models of the number four mark one Enfield. In every color you can imagine, depending upon the theater of operation. Okay, paint doesn't sound very fancy, but you know what it does need to be anodized it does not speak coding It's a beautiful idea if you got somebody locally who done He's not out of business a look at simple if you have to change it out guess what oh wait a minute We're back in the winter over top of the pans and the Browns and the and the leaf colors wait a minute now We're heading towards Springs now I've got more of the greens and I had to get rid of the whites and the grays But mark you're adding layers of paint to your rifle big number four mark ones and a 17 of paint Like I said, every color you can imagine. Deserts, different types of water. Pan, salmon pink. Salmon pink. Yeah, if you ever look at, say, Saudi Arabia, that are not the same, with the colors, it was designed to match up to the Sinai Peninsula Desert because we had, what, that five-color chocolate chip with Gaza, where Egypt and the Egyptian nation actually made guys. The uniform was built. Gravel-y stuff works there. Chips, they call them. Remember little chocolate chip markers? little chocolate chip markers don't work over there and didn't work that well over in say the three color for active troops because they're going to have anything that's we give some camouflage and still is tough depending upon uh... what uncle samuel issues out anyway they have gotten more towards general cultures only guys ring desert camouflage and woodland camouflage combined don't think so palm jog your memory go back even through older anyway camouflage though on this uh... modified slash simple uh... air filter or the other thing remember we've got this of making perhaps even a free-standing homemade bolt-action rifle keep the accuracy up oh ten gun a bolt action something that bad guys don't want you to think about no no it's gonna come from it no no these projects have already been done before the real issue is whether or not you keep the metallurgy up the Japanese made last-ditch cast receivers the end of World War two did that for the most part every time when they pull the trigger gun went off but because they were time and they were pressed for maintenance and they wanted to see how far they could see envelopes some of them fail badly, don't really know as to whether or not the action works. I made a series of full steel parts, the same thing. Consider how many different types of barrels have been pulled off and could be pressed in. The barrels could be ordered, a chambering you want, be griffened design, put together, and never to be seen again. You want to have some fun? Hey, put a manufacturer's, now with the Monte Griffin, remember barrel length, I would not go. I would not, not, not go short barrel. It's a pistol round and even then, you know the idea that somebody's going to fiddle part with you because of what you got. Anybody the opportunity to think around with anyone. The objective here is to make sure that you build something that is able to give you optimal performance. Now there are a couple of pistol cartridges if you have to use pistol cartridges. Remember that a much sooner knockoff point for barrel length value. There's only so much energy you're going to get out of a pistol comping process of the combustion and expansion of the gases inside the chamber passing down the barrel. The one advantage of a bolt gun is that one end and there's only one place for the gas and pressure to get out and that's behind that little red pellet, copper jacket or the steel jacket or the aluminum jacket or whatever, to build bullets. If we can make some really fog about bullets, everybody's gonna get into unique loads. And those unique loads is going to have to potentially penetrate any bolt body armor. You know, demand that you have a jacketed piece of metal, but then that you have to make it a hollow point. Guys, all you do is waffle, serie, hollow point lip. because of rifling and it does an even better job of let's have ballista all that's woven material it's been weaved together to make something that supposedly slows down bullets which you will up there mate so you're combining a custom built full design and easy to build well you're so they got all the things you can add now that when the Mahdi first came out and guys have already done this When it first came out it was designed with particular limited technologies available but now with all these advent of massive quantities of I need to make a picatinny rail for you which is hundreds of different sizes, line types, height and with additional rail configurations on them so that you can pick and choose from the best. And if you need a porcupine configuration of picatinny rails on your rifle, by God they're out. Now both the conventional optics on this mini bullpup uh... slash mighty griffin knockoff and whatever caliber they have the night vision setup and pelican case the whole thing and when you pull it out everything's good to need your laser mounts in red and green uh... you know both copy preferred preferably again keep cost down there uh... whatever optics whatever size scope used to go with them and mark is never issue on that because there are so many you will you'll gravitate towards what's come are extreme range uh... scopes because we are going to be using the right over extreme range a good idea. There's now all kinds of 90s knockoffs. It's a matter of what you can afford initially to get the system online. If you can go cheaper in one area and still get reasonable optics and then spend more money to get the weapons open online probably, you know, etc, etc, and see maybe stainless if you want to go that way. You're going to spend money on the metal and then after a while you can spend a little more money on the optics and you gingerly take that original cheapy off because you know it works on your rifle. Switch out to better as you can afford. Oh, that's how you do it. You remember we've talked about this getting to a certain here doing something you break something you're not going to cry as now you've learned from certain come you know certain uh... processes you've repeatedly used the weapon but i've got a problem with the with the uh... these people who will cheaper it's not a loss is not a cry cuz you you work for as long as it worked but you could you ran into it you're not really work or she miscalculated to fully familiar with the weapon i guess what twenty dollar mistake is better than a nine hundred dollar mistake he start talking all these better optics everybody thinks they want you're talking typically on the optic than you did on the firearm. $900, heck, they're $3,000, $4,000, $5,000. What do you want? How far do you try to hit it? What are you competing against that already spent lots of money, too, on their toys? If you're a competition shooter, this drives your need up. So anyway, we're not looking to spend on something that we built at home. We need something that we can remove from that thing. It works for you. If I run into a tree at night or if I smack it on the ground, I can go, oh, darn, spare parts, and wheel it off. And look, over my box, I have two more spares. the only cost, in fact I got them for $27.95 and I know that I can get need B but I got them on sale if I bought three. Well, I got three of them to be safe. They would one busted on the tree or one gets scratched or one gets dinged and can't be serviced. I know it already works on the ladder for a while but the damaged one gives me spare parts that I might need to fix the other ones as we go. I didn't want to cannibalize anything before, just go find. Hope the damage may not, the next one might be. In fact the one that's not completely fragged but still is back on the weapon. to make it work. This is like, yeah, this is beginning to sound like Humvee maintenance back in the 80s and 90s guys. Well that's a horror story into itself. Anyway, my goodness we are already, oh forgive me, uh yeah, E-640 for our friends out there on the left coast, about 743 for our mountain people. Getting out of bed right now, come on, grab the AR head for the chopper now, get to the chopper! Oh wait a minute, you can't do that. You don't take the air 15 to work if you do what kind of job you got. Instead it's going to be get to the Mercedes now. You have to get to work. Cut. Do it. Leave the weapon. Put the weapon down. Go. I'm not supporting you get caught without one either. Ooh, anti-gun thing. Well, Arnold's busy using gratuitous. I always love hypocrites like that. You're just not good to have the weapon for this. You are. No, the guys would die. Okay, shut up. Anyway, hold on. The coffee chain, you're not pulling it in. Oh, you got half the distance. You only have a coffee. Come on here. Hold on. So, Popeye, you like it? Why isn't it awake? It is Weapons Wednesday, it's the first of September, we survived August of 2010. But instead, it's been well and kickin', congratulations. Well, most everybody is. Every few minutes somebody's leaving us, so don't be surprised there. Now the bad guys have tried to make that an unnatural evil. Whole bunch of us along and they'd like to be the first slime that they are. We understand that. We're willing to offer equal opportunity courses, plug down before they get a chance to try and hurt you. That's why we are weapons wednesday by the way now i've been talking off uh... you know talking to the in the gree about this you know well i woke up you'll find some videos you'll find some information the mighty grip a number different play google search uh... maybe the next hour although we have a guest come and i think that i guess coming up remind you guys covering a lot of subjects here and pertinent even let's discuss about the mighty grip on uh... nobody grip in the fifty caliber by the way beautiful firearm you actually if you have cut if you have a source the other metal You probably can still squeeze $400 mark. Again, devaluation across for the guy making the barrels is a combination of things. It used to be you could get a barrel blank and 50, not chambered or chambered, for about 80, and that would be about a 21, 22 inch barrel easily. It would be actually, you could order it with what? The 38 inches or four bring you one, and that includes shotgun research packages. You'd buy the, you could spend more and get longer in your shop. you cut down the barrel to hover many lengths you need because you bought a big long perpetual tube. See, it will not be modified or whatever, it will be straight tube, un-rifled. But that's for shotguns, for instance. And remember, since it's a straight tube, it is the chambers. That's all dealt with in one sweep. Just a matter of what you're trying to build. Some automatic shotgun, magazine, weight magazines, that's an idea. Yeah, there were modification projects that we did. 12 gauge guns back in the day. in the late 70s using the Air 15 design basically did the same thing. The idea here was to kind of get the job done in that particular niche. Sega's pretty well. The 70s and 1100s are so cheap. 500 Mosburs. Ithaca Model 37's not as common but still shotgun. If you've got any of the above or all, you aren't going to go out of our way to the point where you may get a price you want more depending on what you're not going to get. Maybe, no you don't sell that. Especially as an arm and doesn't have any paperwork where you can get to it. Make sure that you got everything squared away. find the system that we want and we work with it or purchase what we need if you have to work there i mean i'll buy deal ego again show find somebody got liberty are more walk around the somebody's got their own for the table and that's again comes a pro-prong not for selling the only other consideration here especially right now and we do a search on certain standard commercial calibers here the last you know few days affected if one of our friends need certain calibers so we just search on the internet and you know only three companies actually had the ammunition and stuff. And these were standard American chamberings. For instance, 243 Winchester. Many of the companies that even listed it found out didn't have any reason to knock and we could easily buy out what little they had. 243 Winchester, two sets of course more readily available and we were looking at the other option for import types. You know, Silly, but you know, Silly below. See, Fiachi, if you start to do a search even in what were the cheap, you know, guys, these were cheap. the shotgun news back in nineteen ninety nine or two thousand six or two thousand five and it was like well well that was available i got a shotgun news is listed right here yes you do and keyword what shall i know a lot of your calibers simply are available there simply can't be found so uh... you have to shop around but if you have grandpa's two forty three uh... here's what you do or the two seventy and you may not be shooting all the time but you got one bunch of thirty caliber cams mark with a machine you can even do it in tactics card to the side of the ammo can so they can easily be seen. Go in the can, 242.70, have Carcano, whatever it is. And then, if you have to, just start going a box. This is the time as you can afford at least one can of ammo together. At least one, preferably more. The point here is that available, you've got a can's worth of ammunition, that'll be a couple hundred rounds, different commercial boxes, packaging the way it is. Just put it in the ammo can, sealed from the environment. slide it in a shelf underneath that rifle. The rifle together where it can be found. You can put these weapons into your collection or your cache or whatever you want to do. It might put them in your... It's guaranteed that you have a few hundred rounds that makes it a good defense weapon. Somebody from being in trouble. Enough to get you out, not a security weapon. This is true of odd shotguns. A lot of guys, they're not using 16 gauge like they were, but you got... Oh, Stevens in 16, you've got perhaps an old Remington in 16. an old flinch tester in sixteen in the ammunition find whatever you can put on the shelf don't get rid of it double shotgun for game getting secure right on down the list again over the sweet sixteen or if it's a stevens uh... in whatever like a steven sixty six come guys you pull the trigger you work the action they will be functioned flawlessly they're just in designer passed by the military uh... more than serviceable enough for instance the steven guns are out there in four kids and such for his like now about $100 a gun sometimes as little as 80. A 12 gauge, 5 shot or 16 gauge, 5 shot. They're more than serviceable enough as looking at how can I arm up a whole bunch of people. If you're not going into this combat infantry but you're trying to set up a security operation. Now the other thing I'm going to say is this, a lot of them have fixed them down. This is what we call the Red Dawn argument. Okay? In Red Dawn everybody loves you. The new one's coming out. It's going to be I think October guys. continues us with all these movies nowadays. Anyway, I read Don, remember it was Yoni! Went up to the, to do some sightseeing. They've got the long barrel and a few other weapons. All of a sudden they meet him in the little tree. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. The other one guy goes down. He's dragging himself and he sits down. Nobody else! Anyway, when you look at the guy and he's moving, I challenge you to watch the video. the shotgun shells did exactly what they were supposed to do the print is beautiful there's these nice blossoms were come leaking through the uh... gear the clothing and uh... the guy is hit okay many fit with perfect pato now this is a movie i know that but let me point out that the reason that your barrel is longer stuff in it is so that they can keep your patterns tighter greater raising a shotgun why am i going to want to reduce the range of my weapon by shite cutting the barrel down for your after they hit your e perfect actually did a man shot being here question target that happens anyway greater range more energy was available and the wad and everything did their job next thing you see is the kid you know there were the cut the shotgun barrel down and my next question would be i i i know it's a great movie got from pent up but why He doesn't have another weapon to replace that guy's and so far it was doing the job. It's supposed to it's the greatest range possible I don't want to get so close I can smell the bad breath my enemy All I want to hear is I'm gonna feel the smell of stink after he's hit hard. He goes down. He doesn't get back up That's another problem. So why you gotta clean the clothes that you take from him? Anyway, we are at the top.
