You know the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt. to protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless. People that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones. We're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. 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. Invist 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. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be... 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 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 in 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?

It has been a very busy, busy Wednesday already, guys. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 18th of September. It is the fifth year of open Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K-2013 Old Earth Calendar or Mayan Crazy Town, Crazy Town Calendar. interesting stuff going on as far as building weapons go and of course we've been talking about the Polymer receivers but let's say I had to go crude or I wanted to go with something a little quieter in general without going too strange or and using junk off the shelf what would I do? How could I come up with something that would make me happy with a tack driving hush puppy single-shot weapon with a lot of energy But that I could dial down either with the loads that I use or with a quieting system, eventually a muffler around the end. I won't worry about the muffler right now. Let's just put it this way. There's a whole lot of stuff being chopped up out there. Now, one of the things to consider is, especially with the DeWatt weapons and DeWatt parts, is that remember we're looking at a couple basic components. We need a trigger. We're not select fire, we're not semi or full auto, we're looking at a single shot weapon. But, as we obviously know, one of the most common pieces of junk laying around there cobbled up into bits and pieces all over the country and through the armament systems is the AR-15. But it's not the only one. There are also AKs out there. More on that in a minute. So let's say that I want to build something that at least is going to put one bullet down range now I also would like to be unique and experiment, but I'm probably not going to be able to experiment too much. We mean right off the bat we got a lot of two-two-three clunkers out there stuff where the barrels have been cut the receivers have been chopped magazine well destroyed etc etc etc, but some of them were just squoosed and Squeezing is not as difficult to fix as you might think if your mission is to create a locking cam single shot weapon. The AR-15 in many of its cobbled or chopped forms provides at the very least the simple sear area for releasing the trigger, you know, the trigger to release the hammer so that it can strike a firing pin so they can activate a primer. Start taking a look at some of the derelicts and wrecks out there. A 223 chamber, in many cases they've been whacking barrels for years where the barrel is Well, there's only about maybe 6 to 8 inches of viable barrel and they whacked it with a torch. But they didn't necessarily chop the chamber. Now if I were worried about making a sub gun or something yeah shorty barrels are really you know that's the big vogue thing personally I'm not excited about that but to make a quiet high-powered handgun or to make a quiet light rifle that could easily be short you know you know again short cycle using existing parts and the garbage parts of the bunch in other words I look at these receivers that are chopped squosed crushed or whatever I only need to get one part to work. I need the sear to release the hammer so that the hammer can strike the firing pin. The firing pin obviously does its job, etc., etc. Now, as I point out, the 223 AR-15 barrels that are out there, there are two versions. Some are drilled through the chamber, drilled at the middle of the length of the rifle, and drilled at the end of the rifle. Now what this does leave though is still a good 6 to 8 or 10 inches depending how long the barrel is, a viable barrel number one. Number two is depending on where the chamber's cut. I would point out that if it was cut to the rear and I wanted to say take, well for instance, a 7.62x25 round and make it work, I've probably got enough barrel left there, forward of the chamber, you know, the front end of the chamber, so that if I recut and reset properly, I can probably comfortably seat a 7.62x25 round into a recessed, stable, rifle thickness single-shot barrel. Now if I'm really lucky and I go to like some of these companies the barrel, the chamber's intact but the barrel was cut halfway down the tube. Could be a 16 inch barrel, could be a 20 inch barrel. There are a lot of those out there. You'll find them at the gun show too where the chamber's intact. Now am I going to turn this into a gas gun? No. Is it even going to operate without manually moving the bolt? No. So consider that if I want to build something that be again, I'll take advantage of whatever junk barrels out there I'll then take advantage of whatever bolt I can find and I'm looking for a tired bolt. Why? Because this bolt is not going to be cyclically operating. This bolt is going to be locked into place. Now what kind of bolt am I talking about? Well, I'm talking about an AR-15 bolt, a multi-cam, multi-lock, AR-15 bolt. The amazing thing about the 7.62x25 round, guys, is remember its base is identical to the M16 round, the 5.56x2.23. Its diameter, of course, is 30 caliber but remember that can be necked down. Oh wait a minute, oh you mean we don't just stretch things out we can actually compress things down to a smaller taper? Yes as a matter of fact we can and what would make for a real hot biting round is that 7.62x25 tapered down to 5.56x25. Would that be a hot little round or would that be a hot little round? Well, yes, it would be. However, we're not necessarily going to make it super hot. We may go the other way. We may stretch that bullet, go with a round cast 223 bullet, and start working up towards the 70 or 80 grain and make it an individually placed low, subsonic velocity round that leaves a single shot Straight stock bolt action derelict weapon that comes out of a sealed cam single multi-cam, but single single shot Now no operating parts guys. Nothing's gonna move. I don't want this semi-auto. I'm gonna build this as a quiet below supersonic weapon without a silencer This is something we've been talking about for quite some time. Of course, the heavier the bullet, the better off you are. The bigger the result at the other end. Remember that I can go longer with this bullet because I am not worried about... Oh, that's right. This is a single-shot weapon. So I can actually go with something more in line with the traditional 1880 through 1905 pencil bullet design. Now what does that allow me to do? Well, there's two things. Number one, I'm going to go with a spitzer base. I'm going to go with a long projectile. And I can even jacket it or I can make it out of solid copper for that matter. Machine the bullet out of solid copper, cast it out of lead, whatever I want to do to get more weight or also to get more penetration is cool. But here's the one neat thing about pencil bullets, they don't really talk about a whole lot. Like the 545 AK round, once it makes contact with anything in the way of flesh or material, it immediately begins to pitch and yaw. The bullet is very stable in flight, but once it makes contact by the very nature of the cigar dimensions for the bullet, it has a tendency immediately to tumble and cavitate, expanding tissue and doing a lot of damage in a very short period of time. Now, consider that the caliber is 5.56, However, it could be done in a number of different cases or calibers you might have in the field and go to full length. The 223 round itself could be used if the chamber is intact. An existing AR-15 type bolt, a punked out, poor quality AR-15 bolt carrier, minus the bolt key, we don't need that. And a few other trinkets built into the receiver to include a notched receiver with a turn bolt that allows for you to actually operate the bolt carrier and turn bolt as one piece. The turn bolt itself inside the bolt carrier still works. All it does is locks everything, turns it by the percentage necessary to get the locking cam to work into the cam station and the barrel. Now we'll get a buttstock. Anything you got. In fact if you do have a punked out semi-beat back to circular AR-15 lower receiver and you decide to go with some punked out bead up partially damaged upper that you've beat back into submission. Remember again guys, doesn't that be beat back? There's a lot of derelicts for $10 out there that you'll find at Nom Creek where they have blims. I don't want to make a gas gun. I don't want this thing to repeat, repeat, repeat. I want this to hit once and hurt so bad I don't need to repeat with 29 other rounds. Now what's really interesting is there are derelict AR-15 uppers that are in the white. The machining on the back end or the side, something got mucked up on them. And in fact they're completely intact, but the back part of the picatinny rail typically is screwed up because they did not properly station the stock the material, the aluminum blank, in such a way that they got a uniform cut. So usually what happens is the back end of the picatinny rail is miscut or angled. We don't care. We only need part of that. I'll even grind it off flat and reconfigure it if you want to make it look pretty. I only need enough material so I can get a couple of scope rings and a short scope on top of that AR-15 upper and I've got what I need. As long as the internal parts work and do what they're supposed to, I'm fine. Now the only neat thing about this is if I want to make it longer so I can eliminate any flash, here's a little trick. 12 gauge shotgun barrels that have been cut off. A lot of people like to take old bird guns and usually guys that are gunsmiths have chunks of double barrel and chunks of single barrel shotguns that are 16, 12 inches, 20 inches, depends on what they cut down. Now what's really neat is with a little bit of effort that barrel will go right over or sleeve over a lot of these barrel blanks that are out there. What this creates is a cone flash hider that's many inches long and as long as it's centered properly also directs any sound or noise forward. It doesn't have any baffles. It doesn't have any restrictors but what it does is it takes whatever leftover gases and any spent powder if there is any, and moves it through a tube that will not backwash or affect the trajectory of the bullet in any way, shape, or form. The barrel is crowned internally. It does not need to be crowned externally, although you can be fancy depending on how sophisticated you are. When you put the shotgun sleeve over the end of the barrel and make sure that it's pinned or fixed into place, you can even thread it with a very coarse, large thread. There will be a number of different options there. It's better how much junk machinery you got to work with and what you got laying around that might work if you improvise, adapt, and overcome. The long flash hider slash shotgun barrel also extends the barrel length, pin it in place so it's fixed, that way they can't say that you have a short, stubby sub gun or whatever, even though it's not going to be semi-automatic anyway. You can make it, you know, extend it to normal 16, 17, 18 inch lengths without any complications whatsoever. Now as far as the buttstock goes, folding stock, thick stock, right now you can go to Knob Creek or their places. They've got piles of the tired M16A1 stocks, usually 8 or 10 for like $12 to $14. They used to be 10 of them for $10. They're a little more expensive but not much. Don't need a buffer. Don't need a buffer spring in reality because I'm turning this into a turn bolt rifle. Don't need to worry about the magazine well. If it's messed up, just straighten it out enough that you can cap it. And what I would do with the magazine well is fill it. I might even go to the point where I would actually fill it with material and put a peg in place so that it could mount a bipod. Everybody goes, what? Well, sure. I've got this hollow cavity below the where normally the magazine would go. It's not serving any purpose. I can actually install a thread station so I can screw in or fix in if I want to put a solid stud post. I can mount a bipod right into the magazine well putting it in a position similar to where it was located. The magazine, forgive me, the bipod is located on the Bren gun. Now the advantage of having the bipod farther back and closer to the trigger group is that you have a much wider lateral variance for a changing the point of aim without moving dramatically. In fact, there's very minimal motion. Remember, the farther back you bring the pivot point, the greater the amount of sweep that you have with the barrel. Now I pointed out again with optics with something like this, hey, whatever you can get hold of, it's not going to be a long range like half mile or mile gun. What it's designed to do is quietly take out people that are really close that you want to take everything from. sentries, somebody coming out of the bathroom, secret police coming out of the bar, somebody that's in the wrong place at the right time where they're by themselves and they're an enemy combatant that is kitted out, it's got everything you need. You have two people on standby with a ball peen hammer, one with a ball peen hammer and the other one with a drywall hammer. You fire, you take the target down, perforating the beiner, you know, and again with this bullet that could be 80 or 90 grains, it hits, it tumbles, very nasty, very messy, you may not get the hat or the helmet, probably could be in pretty bad shape if it's hit right, but if all else fails, a little wash, a little bleach, you can clean out the gray matter that's inside the gear as far as the helmet goes and probably recover it. The advantage of this is it's all crude. I'm helping you use your imagination. Think of some of the things that can be done here. Now, I mentioned AKs. The same thing can be done with an AK receiver and a handful of really tired AR or forgive me, AK parts. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. And we're looking at crude and rude. We're looking at minimal cost. But there's a lot of stuff like that out there. There's a lot of worn parts. And remember, external parts, we're not worried about finish. We're going to cover this whole thing. We make it look really pretty with enamel paint. Nope, not Dura-Coder or any BS like that. Do what the British did. Enamel paint. It'll make your AR-15 snub gun, your stumpy slash, you know, center removal tool look just fine, whatever camouflage you use on it. Now with the AK, Similar MO, cheap butt stocks are available. You can get an entire stock assembly, front, back, and pistol grip for as little as $5, crude and rude. You can buy a smashed AK receiver for about, with the rails still on by the way, for about, oh what, $5 to $7? Now, AK-74 or AK-47 doesn't make a difference. Remember, I'm not going to make this semi-auto. I'm going to straighten this back out, make up a little anvil, take both a mandrel and another piece of metal work as the hammer. I'm going to strike, commute energy and strike this thing back out and flatten it out and straighten out enough so I can get a bolt to sit. I don't want that bolt to do anything other than the lock. I don't need to worry about it traveling. I don't have to worry about consistent traveling and high speed. It's not going to be doing that. Now with the AK, much like the AR, there's going to still be some MIG or TIG welding you'll have to do because you need to make a cam station for the bolt. You need to make a place where the bolt can be locked into place utilizing the existing components that are available but with a second safety bolt that locks it so it seals and will not travel. We don't want this to travel and we don't want any movement or operation during firing if we can. There are some gun designs and in fact the AR or the AK in its crude rude form we're talking about here could even be a semi-automatic self-ejecting weapon. It would not cycle, but what it would do is once it fires, the cam system would retard, it would pull the action back and eject the spent round. Which would be cool because then you have to individually load your next round, but you're halfway through the cycle without you having to do anything. That still requires some of the springs and other parts that we've talked about before because we have to be over being cautious with the recoil system, but either way remember a little hammering little common sense take a look at the crude and rude pieces you got out there and very quickly you could put a medium or long barreled single shot AK spike driver out there for pretty good price. Right now, tired RPK barrels are running about, oh, as little as $10, $12 a piece, still shootable, not pretty on the inside. Like I said, the flattened receivers are running about $10, $12, $15, as high as $45, depending on how fancy they are, but very few are that expensive. In fact, more you buy cheaper they are. As far as a bolt goes, crudest and rudest guys, very unpretty and in fact even ask for, hey, give me the cheapest thing you got that doesn't look pretty but looks like it's still functional. They'd be more than happy to accommodate getting rid of something like that, typically. As far as the base action goes for mounting a scope, if the receiver can be pounded back out to proper dimension, the cheap Chinese or Tapco Picatinny rail dust covers create the solution. However, China Sport Deal Extreme for all the extra junk you need, guys, you can buy China Sport Deal Extreme Side Rail Mounted, you know, scope mounts for the side rail system for the AK for $6, $7, $8. Big deal. That gets screwed into the side, crude and rude on this, again, single-shot placement gun. The advantage of the AK would be that 7.62x39 or 5.45x39, whichever barrel is available, is more than sufficient to do the job you need to do. Also, again, go up with a big bullet. This is something for reloading. Go up with a larger bullet. Go down with your powder charge. Everybody goes, what? We want to drop the powder charge so that the bullet, when it leaves a tube, it leaves little or no expended gases to signature when it leaves. The other thing about this is typically, again, we're engineering the round so that it will be subsonic. We don't need a silencer. In fact, the heavier the bullet, the quieter the discharge from the weapon. We can go up with the weight of the bullet, which means we can go down with the energy slapping the bullet. With a 30 caliber, we can look at a 200, 210, 220, 230 grain, or even up to a 250 in a 7.62x39 round. And everybody goes, Mark, that's really heavy for that little round. The whole point is it's going to have to oof to push. But the advantage is, because it is going to be running slower, what little powder is there will be consumed before the bullet leaves the tube. You will have no flash discharge. Subsonic, you will probably not even be able to identify the sound of the weapon discharging. Now we've already done this before and talked about this with 45-70 home loads done right on the bench using unique powder, very light load, and using 500 grain projectiles with a trapdoor .45 Springfield. Properly configured, there will be no muzzle flash and the bullet itself, the weapon, the discharge, will make less noise than a CB cap in a .22 rifle. How do I know this? You've already done it. Is there any restriction or anything that could be said about it? No, you're not using a silencer. However, that 500 grain 45-70 round going down range, it is like a freight train when it hits at the other end. The heavier the bullet, again guys, remember you're sliding the math scales up and down. Now you're not going to get 500 grains in a .223 round or in a .762 by .25 modified. But you can go a lot heavier, which means you've got a lot more energy and you'll have horrific cavitation once it gets to the other end. Think pencil bullets. For those who are not familiar, look at the 6mm Lee. The whole idea of the M16 round is not a new idea. It's 110, 120 years old. This is the year 2013. Everybody goes, what Mark? No, the M16 was a totally new... No, wrong. We went this whole routine back in the 1890s with the 6mm Lee round. Everybody thought we'll go smaller and faster and it'll be like a pencil dart bullet and it'll be so awe-inspiring. Well, it wasn't real awe-inspiring for the Chinese and the Philippines or the Filipinos when the Marines tried to use the 6mm Lee, they found out it worked like an ice pick. The problem is it was high velocity and a light bullet. It typically went through just like an ice pick. It did exactly what it was supposed to do. It didn't have any time on target, so it didn't have any time to distort or cavitate or do anything. If they brought the velocity down while bringing the bullet size to where they did, which is almost twice that of the M16 round, The level of performance would have been far higher, but the round had no time to distort or to move. It went literally through the target, through bone, through rib cages, like an ice pick, in one way, out the other, that fast. So the point is, we want to bring the velocity down. This allows the bullet to perform as it should. And we can quiet it to the point where no special psionics, no special silencer technology is required at all. But if you tap something at the base of the skull or right to the, you know, just above the eye into the, into the, you know, brain pan, not only as it lights out, but it'd be pretty devastating. It wouldn't be pretty to look at under any circumstances, but it would be even worse under these conditions, by the very nature of what the bullet would do. Anyway, planting seeds, hopefully giving you ideas, not just planting bullets. The idea here is, how can we take junk and make it work for us? There's a lot of system ideas out there that are already in place. We don't have to do plastic guns to make it happen. We'll be back.

Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands we'll prove no to rifle. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands we'll prove no to rifle. We are back. This is the Intel report live now. I'll tell you what I was talking about building kit guns or base guns from scratch Let me give you an example if you go to apex gun parts comm they have Hugo Slavy and m72 RPK takeoff barrels in very used but serviceable condition They've not been demilitarized. What's the unit price $40? Now, if I take a look at demilitarized receivers, for instance, and other stuff that's sitting there, there's a wide range of cool stuff that they have listed at Apex. And if you're careful and you pay attention, cut receivers, for instance. Not only do you get receivers, but you also get more barrel to work with again. Let me give you an example of this. For $15 they have early Belgian FAL these are FNFAL cut demilled receiver and barrel Now what does that mean? Oh dear beat. Oh, they abused them these things are chopped and they are lopped and they look horrible, but I will point out again, if you'll notice, right there where the chamber station is, the cut is on an angle into the receiver but you have the chamber fixture and you have more than half of the barrel available. Now remember these are 7.62x51 NATO. One of the things to take into consideration is how much chamber do you have left. If I'm building a single shot bolt action, you know, people get her. I want to take a sentry weapon, you know, into service and I need to make something from crude and rude. Consider that I don't need a full .308 round. I can make it a short 308 round. Guys, you're reloading. Do you realize your dies will dial up and down the scale? You can make a round that actually can be reloaded that looks kind of like a 308 round. It'll be too short, but you know what? It'll be too short for the normal 308 chamber. However... without buying anything special and dialing back the loading dies that you have, you can make up a wild cap 30 caliber from scavenged debris brass that otherwise would not be used. Now my argument is with brass like that we take 30-06 8 millimeter any reloadable brass that's split towards the throat we'll cut that down to 45 ACP or we'll cut it down for 8 millimeter Kurtz ammo. Remember that any case that's shorter that has the same basic base dimension, guys with a little thermal lube and a little bit of forethought, you can make any of those rifle cases into something smaller. Until you run out of, you know, again, material because it's brakes or splits again or gets tired and you'd have to go to, you know, doing something else like maybe finding more brass. Okay. However, that .308 barrel for $15, there's also a whole bunch of barrel beyond there in .30 caliber. Now these are rifle barrels. There's more meat available, which means that for making single shot things, like a single shot offhand pistol, look at this way. The FNFL barrel we're talking about that's cut in half, the other end of it has a threaded end cap. Oh, you don't have to thread it? Nope, somebody else already did that for you. You've got more than enough chamber left to do 7.62x25 and it's already a .30 caliber. Oh, wait a minute. So again, this is kind of like what the Russians were doing in World War II. The reason I bring this up is they didn't let any barrel go to waste. If they built a rifle barrel and there was a flaw, it was milled down. They would chop them and lop them and make three peppish barrels or two peppish barrels from what was left. They did not waste the machining time. There was no such thing as a quote-unquote reject barrel unless Ivan was so drunked up on vodka that he kept going cross-eyed whatever job he was given. But if you had a flawed submachine gun barrel, those were milled down or stocked down to make 7.62x25 Tokarev pistol barrels, or they were used to make Broomhandle Mauser barrels. The Broomhandle Mauser was made all through World War II. The Bolshevik model, the Bolo model, guys, remember? Now the point is that in doing this, this is why all their weapons were 7.62. That's why all Russian arms were .30 caliber. It had to do with machining processes, efficiency in production. Now, are there other barrels available? Well, hell yeah, there's all kinds of the cool receivers here too. Of course, conditions will vary. Polish AKMS crush demilled receiver, $15. Oh, it's cobbled a little bit, but those aren't quite chopped like several of the others were their crosscut. Also, Polish Tantell WZ-88 crush demilled receiver. Again, I'm not going to make this into a semi-automatic gun. I need something to pin, first of all, with a junk trunnion off another kit. I'm going to cobble it back up and reintroduce a barrel, pin the barrel in place, and make it into a single shot locking cam system. So there's a number of different solutions. These are ideas we came up with years ago, not just experimenting with these but with other weapons too, a lot of other stuff that's out there. As far as the barrels go, Again, depending on how much you're willing to spend or what you're trying to build, there are many barrel options available. They have 30 caliber carbine barrels that have been demilled, guys. Guess what? There's more than enough barrel left to do a couple of and that's a straight tube by the way remember the 30 caliber carbine. Making a shorty 30 caliber that would work with that or making something that would again adapt to it would not be a big deal. Cast, lead, bullet if all else fails. The idea is to experiment. However for $40 you got a Yugoslavian M72 RPK take off barrel. Then they got a Yugoslavian M70 AK barrel. Very used. Take off. In other words completely intact. I'll bet you that's $40 if you had a penny. That's just me. But you know how it is. So again, for between $15 to $40 plus or minus depending on the barrel and how crude and rude it is, we'll determine how long my kit gun would be as far as the barrel that's available. They've got MG 42 slash 53 8mm barrels, M2 carbine barrels. Well, those are $15. You get three barrels out of that. The M2 carving barrels, you get at least two barrels out of that and probably at least part of a chamber which is effective enough. There are a lot of other barrels that are virtually brand new. I will remind you that if you want to go to eSarco, e-sarcoinc.com, they've got a whole bunch of different barrels laying around that are in the white and on chambered. So if you have a chamber reamer, And by the way if you have that built, let's say you want to make that custom. Let's say you build this custom design. You figure out how to do it. You can have a chamber reamer built to your wildcat. Now this is not an extreme wildcat. If it were extreme then you'd have to have special dies made, etc. etc. But if you think it through, what we're trying to do is take existing off the wall inventory or debris and make it work for us. And it's not that complicated. No, I am not trying to make the latest ray gun. I am trying to make a single shot tack driver so I have to think accordingly. And again, I also, I don't want to get into any entanglements with the shysters. This is where again barrel extensions, pinning and even welding. I don't have a problem welding to the barrel. That's not a problem. If you know how to, if you get somebody who can TIG weld, by the way, you can go to Barnacle Wharf or to Tractor Supply. Tractor Supply is China Sport Red. Barnacle Wharf is China Sport Blue. It's like Norinco and Polytech. Both will offer a cheap TIG welder. Now somebody's gonna be like, well, it's really cheap. Yes, that's the whole point. For research and development, it's enough for the kind of work we're going to do. But with a little bit of experimenting, which is why you want to use the cheap TIG welder, because you can experiment and you can afford to, you're able to literally weld two bottle caps and touch it in the next minute if you know what you're doing. The advantage of this is that when you are welding what are dissimilar parts, and bonding them, when you teague weld, you're only going as deep as you choose to go with regard to the weld. This allows for you to work with even attaching components to the barrels without distorting the chamber or Distorting any other component in the process say the you know if you're near the crown of the barrel and you're writing that shotgun Compensator slash cone hider we were talking about. It's really not cone hider so much as a straight tube It can be welded into place. I would pin it and then I would weld it purely for the sake of just fixing it for you know again you can you could weld the either weld the barrel where it makes contact with the other barrel the base barrel the shotgun barrel could be welded there or where they both bombed or you'd weld the pin that way nobody can claim you can just disassemble it make a short whatever see how that works all kinds of stuff that the bad guys are going oh man that kind of defeats their hole we were going to screw with you yeah we know that that's the idea now Forgive me. If you do want to make handgun size weapons, well, those cut barrels offer lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of options with regard to long barrels. Pistol barrels. There are even pistol barrels available that are very affordable as a matter of fact. So, just a matter of what do you want to spend, how do you want to put it? Oh my goodness, excuse me. Ah, dust! That was all of a sudden. Anyway, it's purely a matter of creativity. Smith & Wesson model 10 barrels are up the gee-gee. There's tons of them right now. especially cheap as a matter of fact but virtually pristine. That's the basis for whatever your research project is going to be when you're looking for a decent barrel. You're looking for something you can work with. Now do you want to cobble a whole bunch of antique classic barrels? Maybe, maybe not. If they're cheap enough and there's a lot of them, once you have the basic prototype in place you can crank out a whole bunch more of these for allies or teach everybody how to do it and within a very short period of time congratulations you have a whole bunch of liberator type pistols off the shelf now i would remind everybody we've talked about aluminum casting and the question that they're had was about the uh... plastic uh... digital processes that have come off here over the last year. A lot of people have talked about them. Bad guys have tried to suppress that. Well guys, aluminum and brass casting is not as complicated as you would think. And, by utilizing existing designs, we don't have to reinvent the wheel, crude and rude. The big thing is that when it gets locked together, it's not so crude. In fact, it's quite accurate. It's a very simple system. What we have a big advantage of right now is inexpensive optics or iron sight technology, optics preferred by most people, which changes the dynamic of its impact or hit potential. We're not going crude and rude where we don't have to and still not spending that much money There's a lot of optics out there China Sport included that are actually pretty reasonably priced will take you know a reasonable amount of abuse They're so expensive you can have multiples of them Something happens to your first one down the road You don't have to worry about rediscovering how to make a scope work You have a second one's identical to the first so that everything you learned about the first one You know about the second one you're bringing into service So there's no learning curve trying to figure out how to make it work See how that is so this is a big plus-plus for us out here guys So we make the less expensive or the Chinese sport slave labor work with other junk and stuff off the shelf and we can come up with some pretty interesting designs No, is it if I'm gonna spray and pray and look like Arnold? No, I'm gonna take that bullet put an Arnold's meaner and then take whatever Arnold was convenient enough to carry for me because he has such big muscles and he brought it to where I needed it and He's a mobile resupply pod. See how that works? And again, quiet, but not quiet with any special tech. Now, you want to get more sophisticated? I would remind you that, you know, lawnmower mufflers are cheap and amazingly enough with a little bit of common sense and considering the outer diameter of a lot of these bull barrels doesn't require a whole lot of special tech to get it to work. Know what I mean? Think about it. Why go stupid or crazy? Remember, we're going to reduce the load so that we can, again, increase the bullet, reduce the powder charge. We're going to change the dynamic of what comes out the end of the weapon. even with silenced firearms. Remember subsonic is the norm so that what little noise may still be generated is probably the action itself is going to make more noise than the actual round once it's suppressed. However, if you become proficient at loading and reloading, it's amazing how well you can do without any additional technology. Again, no muzzle flash, no report, and a heavy bullet going downrange precisely where you want to put it, 100 yards downrange, over and over and over and over and over and over again. It's more important you hit them. Then you try to impress them with volume fire. Sometimes volume fire is needed, but for a lot of what we're doing, we're harvesting off enemy slash aggressor forces. Look at your enemy as nothing but a mobile resupply pod. Now is it gonna get you a superiority weapon? No, the junk most the enemy is carrying that your enemies carrying isn't really as good as you might think or for it typically is actually low low-grade Remember your enemy's weapon was made by the lowest bidder or by fabric national, you know again, I digress the lowest bidder Because of that you're going to be rather Dissatisfied when you find and you actually get some of the stuff into your hands is like man this thing feels like a piece of junk Don't worry. It is but there's a lot of them and They were well cranked out in terms of numbers. If it breaks, at least we got spare parts from the other derelicts we picked up. Congratulations, you got something that goes pop, pop, pop. It was the dream of your battlefield experience until you got one. Then you might decide that that rifle you already built Actually is a better choice anyway or your personal AR or your personal AK that you built up why because you put the TLC into it You know what went into the rifle and then you find out you did a better job of building it than the contractor that was you know under the control of Izzy Blatzenstein and Cohen Okay, you know Bloomberg I would remind everybody about 70, what is it, 76%, 73 to 76% depending on which year of all weapons, small arms built for the US are now being built by a foreign power. They're being built by Fabric Nationale de Armes de Guerre. So we have an alien operation running our armaments for the military. That means it's totally unreliable and it won't be where it needs to be when the time comes. If our people decide to fight American, the Belgians are ready to undermine and destroy the American production. This is why we have to be in phase one already before we hit the pavement here with a battle in the United States. You all need to be thinking about alternatives and how to make things work for you. Nothing is thrown away. And yes, you will recover brass on the battlefield. You will be recovering everything and anything and we won't be using it for fragmentation if we can help it. Anything that's been manufactured is going back into the remanufacturing cycle list. Again, we are even going to evaluate the brass itself. If it is damaged or crushed at the throat, it can be converted to a shorter cartridge or another cartridge completely depending upon the amount of material available that is left in the case and your technology that you have in your area of operation. That's going to be the other half of the factor here. Now wildcat rounds, remember just think shorter .223 There's already a bunch of people doing this with little mini assault rifle rounds, which we kind of joked about years ago We already experimented this back in 77-78 Only because we wanted to see why you know, do we really need the big long AR-15 case You know the 5.56 round Do we really need all that to get a .223 bullet down range at the same velocity? The answer that no, we don't Now what this means is that, well, Stoner, back in 1955, did something that was very common sense. Computers were not as in, you know, service. It was all basically head math that was done. Why reinvent the wheel? What Stoner did is to create his new .223 round. All he did was took all of the dimensions and specs for the M2 .30-06 round and scaled it all down around a .22 caliber chambering, a .22 caliber bullet. Oh, that's what he did. And for that reason, simply because again, working off of other people's multi-generational efforts, many of it, most of it part of Browning's work, Mr. Stoner proceeded to use the same physics, the same basic math formulas scaled down to the new 223-556 round. Now, we're the next phase. We've already had plenty of time, plenty of experience with that round. We're not getting rid of it. It's not going to leave the battlefield for a long time, guys. There's too many millions of those, too many million AKs out there. No matter what, there's going to be some bullets somewhere for them until they run down. In the meantime, again, there are other options, though, because manufactured items will become more and more precious. Primers, we can build. Cases, we can rebuild. From what we can find laying around, we can actually develop the next generation in light assault rifles or light carbines that would suit our needs. Use less material but still perform much to the same level as the existing arms that are there. One of the other reasons, the only reason that really they're pushing all these rounds that are knockoffs of the .223 round in 6.8 or 6mm or whatever, guys, is because of the very common magazines available. If it weren't for that, the idea we already have come up with another magazine or at least a comparable magazine system, we would have been shorter, in other words from front to back, would have been shorter, and it would have offered more capacity. The big argument for why we went to 223, I can carry more rounds. Okay, well what if we have the length of the case and still get the same performance range and carry the same bullet? Can't we carry more mags and more rounds yet again? And by the way, here's another cool thing. By doing that, we short stroke the action. Remember, we're going to halve the length of the action, which means we can increase the cyclic return. These are all engineering issues that are all factors that you look at when it comes to recovery time, next round down range. If you're looking at select fire, it's also an issue with regard to increasing volume. I'm not really excited about that because again, do you have a thousand Chinese coolies behind you to carry everything? No. So what we're looking at is can we reduce the amount of material, increase the volume of fire power as needed with controlled fire using semi-automatic options only, and can we come up with a magazine system that's reliable? Well, when you start having the size of the air 15 round, you start looking towards other mags that are presently available and don't we already have something like that in a 7.62x25 case. I have a lot of 7.62x25 ammo coming in now. I warned you about that months, months and months ago guys. You already know that so there's nothing that's a surprise there. But what we do have are a bunch of 7.62x25 submachine gun magazines. Oh, now they're already designed for a tapered case, 7.62x25. So if we look at shortening but going with a 5.56 or a 5.45 projectile, we can probably get the same performance and use an existing reliable feed mag. And the kicker is, if it actually could be downsized to that spec, which somebody's already done to a degree with some of the little rifle chubby, the chubby stubby bullets that are out there right now. We could also use their drums if we could design appropriately the you know the magazine feed system You know in other words where it's going to be picked up by whatever action you choose whatever you come up with if you're going semi or gas operated Anyway, ideas, I've wanted to do this for a while because you guys, we've got the brains. We've got the thinkers, they've got the stinkers. We're going to end up with more stuff being cut off. The bad guys are into the next round of get the guns, get the guns, get the guns. California just passed a bunch of gun bans with the word confiscation listed through them. Not only for guns, but also for magazines. So that is being given little or no coverage right now, which should tell you something about how your enemy is going to operate. You're going to be, again, isolated, separated, segregated, and picked off, guys. That's what they're doing with New York. That's what they've already done with Colorado. Colorado bit back. New York is sitting on its hands. Let's put it this way. Generally, there is a news blackout for what's happening in New York with regard to the gun confiscation and gun ban, which tells you the Jewish mob is doing their part. Who runs the newspapers? Oi! Who are the editors? Oi! Who's going to tell them what to be printed? Oi! You know how the rest of it works. So New York, good, bad or indifferent, is still, no better often it was, seven, eight months ago when all this stuff started and got passed. In fact, it's heading towards a series of walls that are going to hit. That in and of itself can escalate into a ground war very, very quickly. You need to be thinking ahead to production, not just consumption and acquiring through the existing inventory. You need to be looking at how can we build more and supplement what we have for people who don't have. Of course that little beaner rifle in the single shot will get you whatever the other bad guy has and whoever has the better swipe with the hammer, the guy with the ball peen hammer hits first, he gets that guy's stuff. The guy with the drywall hammer hits first, he gets the goodies. See that will be the competition. Two men to go out and strip, you know to finish off and strip whoever you've shot. And whoever gets there with a better hit first, ball peen or drywall hammer, and it will be easy to determine. You see the reason I say that, you won't have competition. The guy with the ball peen hammer makes a nasty squishy splotch when he hits, especially on the old skull. The guy with the tomahawk slash the drywall hammer, you'll know exactly who he is because it will be just like last of the Mohicans. See how that works? Now, the guy with the tomahawk got it, he gets the goodies that are, even if they're bloody, he gets the goodies. Now he's still going to go out and help the guy with the ball peen hammer get the next one after you shoot the next one in the back of the head. Okay? But that heavier pencil bullet and that quiet load without any special technology will be more than sufficient to get the job done. Guys, properly loaded, any weapon you have out there will make less noise than a .22 caliber single shot CB cap rifle. It's a matter of you becoming proficient and experimenting with what you have. Go up heavier with a bullet, drop down with a powder charge. Don't even worry about going with a Magnum primer. Go with a standard primer. Also again, reducing flash and conserving for special tech the stuff that needs to be special tech. It's that simple. Anyway, we're at the top of the hour already. ApexGunParts.com, ApexGunParts.com, and E-SarcoInk.com. A lot of goodies there and a whole lot more laying around the country and other places. You find the watering hole, you pick out what you need, you make it work. Let's be creative. But again, also make sure that you don't do anything too off the wall or funky that the bad guys can piddle with. They hate it when you are two steps ahead of them, guys. And we're way beyond that. We're a whole lap ahead of the fools. God bless the Republic. Death of the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We're in a march, and we'll be back in just a little bit here. It won't take long. Tomorrow morning is just around the corner. The Liberty Tree Radio and the Micro Effect. Bye-bye.
