Summary
Mark Koernke discussed Operation American Spring's disappointing turnout in Washington DC on May 16, 2014, analyzing media coverage and criticizing participants for speaking to the press. He covered low-level military aircraft activity in Arizona suggesting possible special operations training, promoted preparedness products including AK-47 parts and night vision equipment from vendor Don Betcher, and highlighted flag-waving protests along Interstate 40 in multiple states. Callers reported unusual C-17 and C-130 transport aircraft flying at extremely low altitudes near Phoenix and described widespread grassroots anti-government sentiment among ordinary Americans.

Live 365. You plan to cook without power. Over 50,000 preppers have chosen to stretch their fuel storage by harnessing the power of the sun with sun ovens. Food can be baked, boiled, or steamed year-round at temperatures of 360 to 400 degrees. Sun ovens are the most energy efficient way to cook freeze-dried food storage and can be used as solar dehydrators or water purifiers. Thousands of preppers regularly use sun ovens and have found they quickly pay for themselves by reducing utility bills. Sun-cooked foods stay moisture and never burn. Sun-baked roasts are succulent and sun-baked bread has unparalleled taste and texture. For 28 years sun ovens have been proudly made in the US. They're durable, have a long life, and have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations. For a discount, visit sunoven.com backslash libertytree. That's www.sunoven.com backslash libertytree. One more time, that's www.sunoven.com backslash libertytree. the For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You vie permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent, although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will have people. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled, each God given right, we only watch 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? Is this still the land of the free? and east. east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. We're on the homework network from the top of Maine to the bottom of Florida. From the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico. Headed Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, big chunk of Nebraska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both the third, fifth pit and our friends in the recall state of Colorado, waving to the left coast. We have the great state of Jefferson. We turn back to the east sweep across the plains, leap over the burgeoning banks of the Mississippi and land in the smoky slash the Blue Ridge. Where the restaurant crews, grandma teams, okay teams, and the Ma Bell Grammar Consortium of retired telecommunications workers bring us to full despite. Many hands make for light work a million petticoat operators. The ability to continue to function when everything else is offline. I'll tell you what we may have Dom there. Yes, we do. There we go. Don, what is the day today, sir? What's the condition like up in your neck of the woods? Well, Mark, on this May day, the 16th day of May, it's, hey, we got to about 43 degrees today. And again, the middle of May, 16th day of May. It should be a little warmer, but you know, hey, how does that go? I'm just happy to be here. So with that in mind, it's a Friday too, isn't it? Oh, boy. If you're going to be out in the woods this weekend, you're going to need to take some of that gear with you that will keep you warm overnight because it's going to get cold at night. We had frost last night. It's late in the year. There were people saying, oh, we're going to see another frost or two. And there's one of them right there. Bam. May 2014. I've been here on fire kind of day, Mark. I haven't been able to sit down and see anything. by ideal to you for i'm sorry and it is of course friday and for everybody out there listening we have a whole bunch of work still needs to be done kids uh... terms of specific projects that are uh... you know in motion right now i would remind everybody that uh... there are about all what's the least A dozen different groups that are headed out to Nevada this weekend, by the way, we're supposed to, or this weekend, forgive me, we also have, let's see, what is it, the march on Washington taking place. I understand the guys have a posting, in fact JD did a posting, Operation American Spreading falls flat, very disappointing. uh... michael question on that one is and forgive me uh... hold on here second i'm assuming bring this up again the uh... here we go anyway uh... operation american springs washington poster what pretty washington times don't trust any of the papers number one remember that when we put a whole bunch of people on the ground for uh... the tea party march when it was the you know somewhat independent still in the transition phase They turned around and claimed that at first it didn't take place, then they said it was only a few thousand people. The private videos demonstrated that it was millions of people and everybody knows it. But anyway, the other issue is the argument that somehow Washington is listening. I don't think anybody really believes that for the most part anymore. There's nobody in Washington who hasn't bought and paid for it to one degree or another. If they all have to run over there to the Israeli spit and wall and lick their butt over there, they're spot and paid for prostitutes anyway. We know that. They're not working for the US. They're working for a foreign agenda. So, if you're spending money, a lot of people's logic is if I'm going to spend money, it'll be to help fight the fight or actually get into the battle. Again, nobody's going to be doing any pitchforks or running up to Washington to the White House and running the bugger out. That ain't going to happen. They're not going to go into the Capitol building. Everybody will be polite. You'll be dancing around outside. The peasants will be grabbing the teacup. i'd say it won't say and without the president's out there milling about on the launch of the have the police shoot at them yet well now that i will wait a little bit now we can skewer them later we will do a property confiscation thing or something i said i was a really different between the crown operatives we have there in washington now the court crown operas we shot out of this country back in uh... seventeen seventy five they have the same arrogance same attitude they're not listening Uhh... England learned a hard way. Of course, then they said, well, they got revenge because they came back for the Second American War for Independence. Yeah, well, the militia gave them tit for tat, despite what they say. And there's a lot more even to the American War for Independence. Guys, we didn't just fight them here on this continent. The war was taken to England. Most people don't seem to remember that. John Paul Jones and a few others did some very significant sorties right into the backyard of the British Navy. Oh, yeah. One of the most famous battles was watch by Frenchmen just literally from the French coast. No, no way. They could sit on the beach and of course enjoy some crepes while they see the battle from a distance. No fear of anybody being hit on the shore of course. It's like watching an actual live broadcast. Well it's about as live as you get sir. I think I can hear the screaming. There weren't any motors in the way. You know what I mean? Think about it. All the noise would be right there. Stepping off of the Bonhomme Richard as it sinks onto the Serapis. This is our boat now. Time for me to jump over to another command boat. Before we do, we'll grab as much of our goods as we can and get them over to the floater. How does that sound? I've always thought about it. They never show you stuff like this. They just leap over. Like in the movies, it's always the party-hardy version. If you know that your other ship is sinking and you have time, because she doesn't slide beneath the waves that quickly, guys, You're going to be using the rigging and yard arms and whatever jacks you've got to pull everything off that other ship you can, not the least of which would be gun tubes. Every cannon you've got is another cannon. It's all money. Think of it this way. Even though it was wood and sail, what was wood worth? Well, they're not going to be saving wood, per se. But anything and everything that would be useful, that is manufactured, anything that took time is going to be grappled and grabbed as quickly as possible and brought over. In fact, you have to remember force multiplication. If you are a privateer or let's go to the pirates, if you are a pirate and you had your own position on an island somewhere, where do you think they got the guns from to create fortifications? Do you think they took them off their ships? Why is it the... Yes, why do you think Tortuga was so famous for being well defended? Hint, hint, hint. Well, if you're a pirate ship and you're attacking Merchant Marine in light naval, don't you think you're stripping the guns off everything? Yep. See, that's the part they don't show. It's always the booty and the swinging across and they might have a girl with their arms. You know, the heroine of the movie, right? In reality it is very different. The article is in the Washington Times. It is dated for, I believe, today but I don't see the date on it. That is unusual. Oh no, that is why it is covered up. It is dated for today, 16 May, Friday, 2014. The article is written by Cheryl K. Chumley. Operation American Spring Falls Flat, this is very disappointing. Texan says Operation American Spring Build is a Friday morning multi-million patriot march on Washington DC to oust leadership from the nation's capital. Let's see, come on, get out of my way, stupid pop-ups. From President Obama to the House Speaker, two House Speaker John Boner, bow hair, has proven woefully below expectations. It's a very dismal turnout. It's at Jackie Milton 61, a Jacksboro, Texas resident and the head of Texans for Operation American Spring. to the Washington Times. He said hopes were high when he arrived in Alexandria. See, my promise, I can't have any confidence that the person would be saying this. They wouldn't be stupid enough to say this, I would hope. Why would I be talking to the press and giving them tears in my beers? Anybody think about that? See, that's right off the bat. I'm hoping, of course, This is the problem. Somebody needs to hear me cry! Oh, I know, I'll talk to my friend, the controlled media news guy, or girl with a microphone that'll make me feel better. I know, like, what's going on? Oh, shut up! Seriously, is anybody, you know, and you know what's funny? We could tell people that and they'll, well, you don't know what you're talking about. Okay, well, so they go ahead and jump in front and then they hack and chop and they cut and they're selective and it's like, you should not have talked to them at all. Why? And why are you lamenting? First of all, even admit here in the process of this cycle, you know, going on over the whole weekend. So, and again, well, I'll go through this. It's a very dismal turnout. Said Jackie Milton, 61, at Jacksonboro, Texas resident and head of the Texans of Op. 4, Operation American Spring. to the Washington Times. He said hopes were high when he arrived in Alexandria, Virginia a day or so ago and found hotels and hotels were sold out for 30 miles around. Well, problem with that is it usually is anyway. But weather has dampened turnout a bit, he said. I don't know why. The weather has dampened turnout a bit. Now, what was the expectation? If the rain is going to slow you down, then what would you do when the riot police show up? Oh, I'm sorry, break and run? Is that the plan? Anyway, we were getting over two inches of rain. Oh man, this is printed horribly. This is from the Washington Times. I've got a proofreading corrected myself as I go. That's really bad. Let me look at this again. It should be in an hour or an hour in parts of Virginia this morning. I don't care. Either way, we would have constructed it properly. Now it's a nice sunny day but this is a very poor turnout. It ain't no millions and it ain't looking like there's going to be millions. Hundreds is more like it. Operation American Spring was billed as far back as six months ago as a rally call for patriotic Americans to force leaders in Washington, D.C. to return to a more limited constitutional style of governance. They won't. and to oust those leaders who weren't listening. Among the group's targets, Mr. Obama and Mr. Boner, Boner, Beener, Boner, whatever. You know, this is a Washington article and they spelled his name long twice, at least in the article. This is done by the Washington Post, guys. This is not by a mark in a hurry at 3 o'clock in the morning and half dead. Because I know I did some typos and it was like afterwards it was like, oh you know the hell with it. I'm at the end of the rope here and I've got to get this done and get it up on the YouTube page. I could knock it down and put another one up but I'm telling you, these people get paid to do this. This is like, wow, well spell check's cool because all the words are spelled right but the construction's all wrong. That's why it's jerky to read even. Part of it is to do the weezer routine where it's horrible. See, you shouldn't even bother. Nobody showed up. Well, you've got to remember these are the same people that lied about the tea party thing. They claimed it wasn't even going on and didn't happen. Then when it did happen, they lied about the numbers so the progressive steps were of lying that they do. holder etc. We know all the list of boo-boos they think they want to kick out and everybody does but they're not going to listen. Initial projections were between 10 million and 30 million to come from around the nation and converge on the downtown capital city streets outside the White House and Capitol building. A number of the organizers of the event Army Colonel Harry Riley called optimistic yet doable given one million militia had already agreed to come. Mr. Riley's reason for the event, why I would tell you this is the most unfriendly piece of trash page I have seen too. After all, they don't necessarily know how to run it, they just do it and get over it. A number of organizers at the event, blah, blah, blah, forgive me. We are calling for their removal as a start toward constitutional restoration. They have all abandoned the U.S. Constitution, are unworthy to be retained in a position that calls for servant status. On Friday the mission may have been the same, but the body count hardly as expected or wished. Let's see, this is very disappointing Mr. Milton said, speaking of the numbers who showed so far while marching to the White House. I've been taking to talking. No, it says taking. I'm serious. Another one! Man! This is the Washington... Oh, forget him! I've been taking to everybody for six months. That's what it says. Now, you know what it should say, and normally I would automatically change this for you and be upgrading it as I go. You know, I've been talking. I actually have been fixing these things while I've been reading. There's so many folks. A sixth grader got a C on this. No, he's probably a third-year college intern and his spellcheck didn't work any better. Well, his spellcheck worked, but he has no concept of how to write in the first place. I've been talking to everybody for six months telling them to come and telling them if it's not realistic to get to D.C., well then go to your county courthouse and protest. The weather likely delayed some from showing, he said, but as the sun comes out and the weekend weather dawns balmy, more could show, he said. This isn't just a one-day thing, Mr. Milton said. Most of our group, 126 from Texas, are going to stay most of the weekend. When the bikers come in, there will be much more. How should that be constructed? There will be much more. Or there will be many more. Or something. There will be much more. I know Connecticut is here. I know Colorado is here. I think Utah, maybe. He also said the... Now listen. This person needs to be fired. I'm serious. He also said that the sum of the planned operation American Spring members, does that even make any sense? He also said that It should be a that. The V is correct, it's spelled right, that some of the planned Operation American Spring members who were planning to head to Washington DC instead traveled to Nevada. Now that's not necessarily true, they went just to Nevada. We've got New Mexico brewing up, we've got Arizona brewing up, and a lot of people are actually turned around like in New Mexico. The militia has offered itself to the sheriff's office out there if you haven't read the story, guys. I will give you more on that in a minute. In fact, the guys will find that story in the chatroom and follow up on that. Instead, Travel in Nevada gives support to cattle rancher, Cliven Bundy, in his fight against the federal government over grazing fees. A lot that were supposed to come here went there instead, Mr. Milton said, or may have done it earlier and spent their wads, so to speak. You only have so much money to spend on travel. A lot that were supposed to come here went there instead. He said his group from Texas was set up A few miles outside of the capital city, intense and mobile vehicles and a private property on Route 1. I believe that's end of story and it is. So again, so far if we can believe the story, if I can read through the spelled correct typos, okay spelled correct but oh well. Anyway, like I said, my old, any of my children could do better. I think we can handle their job the way they're doing it now. Anyway, that's the little report about Operation American Spring. I guess we're not going to do what the Egyptians did and get the Israelis to work as slave handlers from behind to crack the weapon and create an opening for them to have a completely Jewish operated government here. Oops, did I say that? Well, it's close enough it is, so why bother is what they're figuring. Anyway, other things going on. Let's see, one other item. I wanted to get this in here too. I want to remind everybody. We've got to clear these mags out of here, number one. Before we go to gooseislandsales.com. Guys, I want to remind everybody of something. I don't know why they're still there. Actually, they sold out twice. They must have got a bucket of these things maybe from Knob Creek or from one of the people that are suppliers. Package of 10 AK-47 or AK-74 pistol grips. They're going to be probably used. The colors will vary. And the unit price is 10 pistol grips for $1.99. Now if you have AKs and RPKs, et cetera, guys, these are replacement grips. Your armourer should buy at least one of these. But if you're also building AKs and such, these go into the utility box with all the other production stuff. For whatever reason, they're standard AK plastic pistol grips. You've seen them all on your AKs if you got one. But for $1.99 for $10, well, you figure it out. That's 20 cents a piece. Yeah. That's a throwaway price. That's as cheap as you're going to get for anything like that. It's a lot easier, although it might not be as pretty, as trying to carve one out of a hunk of wood. Yeah, doing out of a... Well, I had to make this one out of a chunk of a handle, one of those axe handles that was busted over there. It works, you know, which it would. But why do that when you can spend 20 cents, put actually $2 plus some shipping. In fact if you're going to do this you better buy other things from the place because the shipping is going to be more expensive than the item. Now they may have, and I'm going to point everybody out to this, there is another item if you're going to do this and you're looking at AKs. Let me do this. If you go to the AK47 parts or the parts section for CenterFireSystems.com, that's where we are, CenterFireSystems.com, CenterFireSystems.com. Now, if you go to the AK section, Parts and Accessories. Now they may have something here still and if they do, grab it. But they've been pretty close to selling out of these little packages for a while. Oh, they still have it. OK, here's what you do. Now, get your pen and paper out. The fact that they have these to me is amazing. And if you were to do individual, well, actually, you'll see in a minute here what I'm talking about. AK gas piston, AK trigger groups, internal, and the keeper pins, and all your release and stay pins, OK? And another pistol grip, as if you don't have enough if you buy 10, right? But the whole package, the piston by itself, They charge separately, they charge $8 for. The internal trigger assembly and the hammer and everything guys, that sold separately goes for another $10. But if you buy this package, which is the AK package, piston grip trigger group, it's $10. So get that. The piston is worth picking up by itself, but you get all the rest of the pins, and those are priceless. In addition to that, you get the keeper washer, which is a tiddly little item that if you lose it, you're going to wish to God you had another one. So if you look at the little kit, those three parts, the pins, that stupid little washer, and that gas piston which if you had to make you would pay about $80 for if you had to go out and have it machined. It's a completed forged machined piece of hardware that is threaded at one end, it's crisped at the other. Remember that's machine to spec. It's a self-cleaning, it has two cleaning ribs built in that are machined in and the purpose behind it is when that piston moves guys It self scrapes the gas tube. That's what it's supposed to do. That's part of the feature built in by Kalishnikov. Well, you get the hammer, the trigger, the sear, a pistol grip, the pins, the washer, and most important is that gas piston for a whopping $10. And they still have them in stock. So if you're going to buy that, you know, say, 10 of these AK pistol grips, that's a good price. If you look at the axis pin, there it is. They want $2 for the axis pin, just one of them by itself. You get two of those with that little kit for $10. And again, if it's gone, if it's missing, if it has to be replaced, it's priceless when you need it. So again, go to the AK Parts section. Actually, here's the way we're going to do this. Go to CenterFireSystems.com. Go to their AK section. Then there's a subdivision there where it's rifles or parts. Go to Parts and Accessories. When you get to Parts and Accessories on page 1, right in the middle they have that 10 pistol grips for $2 add again. Then scroll down and they also have on the right hand side you go most of the way down. Third from the bottom, AK package piston grip trigger group, it's the PKG-G for $10. So that's a very reasonable price. Now, the other thing to have on the same line, two items that might be useful for all of you, is a 5S, AK or SKS cleaning kits, the buttstock type for $10. So it's $2 apiece. That's a reasonable price for those cleaning kits. In other words, if I'm going to be paying for the shipping, I might put something in there to make the shipping worthwhile. The pistol grips are okay, but I would definitely at least get, if you're one of the guys that's doing work on AKs, those AK packages, it's a PKG-G package deal, is $10. They also have, though, the AK and MAC90 compensators that are in the AK-74 pattern. in 30 caliber for $10 right there in the middle of the page. If you're looking for a compensator and you have one of those chopped barrels where it has no threading, this is the way to get the compensator on your weapon without having to do any special threading or anything. This slides right onto the barrel right around and it taps in where the front sight is. So it's pretty straightforward, easy to understand. Take a look at it. You'll understand it does come with a cross pin the whole nine yards. But it puts a compensator on the end of that open crown barrel that you've got. and a compensator or any kind of flash hider at all is going to make a big difference. It does help. I don't care what anybody says. Bottom line. I can live without it, but for $10 it's affordable. TAPCO makes a whole bunch of them too, by the way, too numerous to mention. So it's a personal choice thingy. If you found a better price, go for it. If you didn't, congratulations. We got an idea. Other than that, the rest is all basics. Still, again, I want to take you from Center Fire Systems, where I brought up the thing about the pistol grips. I want to do this before we get to the bow or past the bottom of the arrow. Let's do this. Don Betcher has night vision. We've had a lot of people that have now been getting their night vision scopes. They are very, very happy with what they've received. Hopefully I'll give you an idea why it is. We've been pushing this concept because this upgrades your ability to fight at night dramatically Don your number for night vision what you have available changes in that vision technology and Again other packages that might be available such as second gen if somebody does want to step up to the plate on that go ahead, please Well, I talked with my guy today. We can still do that 375 but you guys just by coincidence that 350 there's 352 of those bodies left on the continent. So we're not certain if we're going to get any more of the bodies that we've been offering. When they're gone, they're gone. In other words, you guys are getting a great deal. There won't be any of the same system available as far as we can see on the horizon, correct? Yes. The move up is to a four power and I think it's about 42 or 46 bucks more. So that's beyond my control, you guys. We have this. It's a very fine system. It appears very fine when you take it out of the bag. For a first generation device, it is everything. You look for the tomato soup. You know what I mean? You'll keep looking for that. It's a plenty good system. It's entry level, but it performs as well as someone mentioned it performed as well as their PBS2. That's a triple. cascade system. He might have never seen that system when it was brand new, but it's one-third the weight of a PVS2 also. To me about that device again, we're working inside a finite number of bodies now. It's not to the end of the year and it's not, well, we've got thousands of them like we had a little while ago. He says, I talked with him, I mentioned Cabela's and I mentioned Gander. He says, well, it's not beyond them to come in and buy 100 or 200 of that or maybe even the last of the lot. So if you want to get in, you know, you guys, if you want to get that device, give me a call. My number is 231-796-8458. Again, 231-796-8458. We've got goggles and gun sights and green screens and thermal. We can talk about a second generation gun sight. Right now, you guys that stole it, 1300, I pick up the delivery on that. My number is 231-796-8458. Both of the devices I just mentioned will live on top of your M1, your 308, your 30-06. Give me a call. My number is 231-796-8458. When these bodies are gone, I'm not certain if that's going to be the cutoff when we start to get green screen or rather when we turn into a white light instead of a green light out of first generation. So we're running in some uncharted waters here you guys. I would say get one of these while you can. My number is 231-796-8458. And I don't do this to get it while you can. It's not to like Well, gee, panic everybody, but you guys, when we see the end of a particular opportunity, it's like one more time into the gold mine, one more time into the breach, one more time around the race. We could go on and on, but we're down to the last laps on this opportunity. For a green screen, after this we're looking at a white first-generation entry level. Gun sights will put a white light on your eyes, on your face at night. That isn't going to work real good if another guy out there is looking at you with night vision. We've addressed this over the years. My number is 2317968458. Goggles are gun sights, but hey, we need to, at the very least, we need to move this generation gun sight. We need to pick up a good portion of the remnant of them. 17968458. Thank you, Mark. And of course it is Quartermaster Friday so for everybody out there make a point again of doing your part to create a 5-10 program. Part of that is to, if all possible, have some form of small arm lighting system, night vision lighting system, also looking at daylight optics guys. One of the things is Barca is the one company I was trying to remember, which of these, there are three different B companies that are Russian. But Barca has a number of very reasonably priced daylight optics in terms of short and intermediate range scopes or fixed range scopes. that are fine for the type of work we're talking about in a 510 program because when you buy multiples you get them for less. Now they're not as cheap when they first came out guys. They were in the high 20s to the 60s. Well everybody's had a chance to play with them. American currency has faltered so you're looking at anywhere from the 40s and the 50s up to a couple hundred dollars a unit. Now they've always been higher in units they were offering. If you are looking for a varmint or adjustable long range scope for a heavy rifle, they have been offering these for quite some time. They are comparable to the Art scopes and comparable to many of the other competition scopes that are out there. Definitely worthwhile. Take a look at them, see if it's something that fits your niche for daytime operations. Remember too that even at night if you have a larger collecting lens, you've got greater light collection, you have the ability to work at night with the daylight scopes and that will help to enhance the situation to a degree. Night vision is still a better choice in general as we know simply because again, eyes in the dark. The idea though if need be is to integrate these systems, use everything we've got to the best of our ability. We may not have everything the other side has, but we sure as hell can get close enough that we can start taking theirs and then using theirs on their own people. That's the idea. Also we're getting running time. Whenever you're using this night vision technology and whenever you're using these other scoped systems, remember there's a learning curve. You experience, you get a chance to test and find out what fits your body style because there's a whole lot of factors involved in weapons performance guys. And while one system seems to be ideal for one individual, It's a combination of background, how they mentally orient themselves to things that determines what perhaps is the best choice and how to tailor the weapon and the optics to suit the shooter. This is something we've dealt with for years. We're not the regular army. We don't have the limitations they have. That's a very important factor in the overall program. So again, be creative, take a look at the situation, take a look at what's available. Night vision, Don's got it. Daylight scopes, again you can go to a number of different sources and sites and again take advantage of them. Now, what I wanted to do is this. I've mentioned this several times during the week because I want to see them all in our hands. Thermal bags are ugly. They're ugly, man. They're ugly. But they work. Thermal is not pretty. Thermal does not hold any blue banner rewards or motif, but they definitely function. Well, you got most of the 20 rounders pretty well in our ballpark because everybody listened to what we were saying over the last several years. The 30 rounders weren't very much available, but we grabbed all of those. Well, there are some AK47 30 round thermal mags that are available for $6 a piece. Now whenever we can find you a better price where you can put more on the shelf and end up with more mags that are ready to be loaded when the time comes or that can be loaded on standby, well this is a solution. So go to gooseislandsales.com. They're out of Oklahoma, gooseislandsales.com, gooseislandsales.com, and go to magazines. When you go to magazines, scroll down the second tier left-hand side. That's where you'll see that it looks like it's gray in the picture, but it's supposed to be black, and it probably is because it's a black plastic mag. But it's the thermal 30 round AK-47 magazines and they're $6 a piece and they're located of course in Oklahoma. They say they now have 118 of them. I don't know how their counters working because I know somebody bought part of what we... it was 118 this morning and after I got off the phone somebody let us know that they bought a chunk of those. So, I don't know how many are truly left or how long it takes for their meter to catch up, but for everybody out there, the idea is that we're going to clear them off the shelves and they're going to be ours. Somebody else catches on to this in between, fine. But the objective is for us to get them. I want our people to have these. So again, AK-8 30 round magazine 7.62x39 thermolds. They are in black and they are $6 a piece. Now if you need a few more things to fill up the Christmas stocking box, they also have some 30 round steel mags. I don't know if they are Korean. I still haven't called these guys, I should. Because they are a steel mag, they are brand new and they are $9 a piece and they have a quantity of those available. So we will find out more about that as we can when the time comes. Anyway, let's go back over here. One last thing on that Don is they also have Beretta Model 92-Cx4 magazines. These are the 30 rounders that were made by Beretta in the factory. These have that brown plastic grip shield on the lower part of the mag. There's an advantage to that. Part of that was for different theories about how you control the weapon. If you are not familiar with the full-auto Berettas, remember guys, they make them. The idea is that the front hand, the foregrip is controlled and the base is controlled using the sidearm and letting the frame lay right on the side of the outboard side of the hand as you bring the other hand back to grip the base so your hands are literally base to base. This is a technique you don't see very often, but it's one that was taught for the full-auto solution to control the weapon by bringing the weapon close into the body, creating a multi-point control stance, and when you pull the trigger, even if you're rattled off all 30 rounds, you'll probably keep most of them into the ballpark. But basically just take, in fact, what you do is hold the pistol, Bring your other hand back. In fact, point your arm out away from your body. Bend your hand back to your chest. Flip your hands until your palm is out. Imagine gripping the base where that plastic grip is, which is an extension. So the base of your right hand is touching the base of your left hand upside down. This technique actually torques the pistol so that it doesn't rise as much, which is a big problem with machine pistols in general when they're full-auto. They're very light, there's no control, cyclic rate is high, and as much as anything, they were traditionally used as riot police weapons for kind of cracking over people's heads because most of the rounds would. That doesn't mean you couldn't kill somebody with them. A lot of people died at the hands of those guns. But this is an interesting idea that this is a Beretta factory mag. And for a lot of you that are Beretta fanatics, if you like Beretta, you like Beretta. I mean, come on. Everybody's got their flavor of the day pistol and they should enjoy it. Some people like Chevy, some like Ford's. And then there's poor crazy people like me who are like Chrysler even though the electronics are some of the crappiest on the planet. I'm sorry. Just this side of Lucas the Prince of Darkness. I figure on a mag like that though, if that mag will just cycle out at a high rate, it shouldn't have any problems delivering one at a time. Oh no, these are very reliable Beretta factories. And again, we know the problems with each pistol design. The Beretta 92 fits a niche for a lot of people who started serving in the 80s and ended up probably with the Beretta. They became comfortable with it. They bought it. It was in vogue when it came out. There's both Beretta America and Beretta of Italy and there are differences in the guns. But if you've handled one, you've handled the other. Remember Taurus even made a copy. I think it's the Taurus 99. That's Beretta knockoff. I don't believe that the Beretta mags will work in the Taurus, but if you have a Beretta 92, this is a solution. Also, this company, again it's Quartermaster Friday, this company has FN mags. Now they don't have many and I'm not excited about that, but they do have FN PS90 slash P90 factory magazines. These are FN boxed factory mags. Now they're only 30 rounders. Remember the PS90 here is from Stargate, remember the television series Stargate where you had that double whammy, it looked like a little tight squeeze gun like a water pistol? The magazine across the top. Magazine on the roof, exactly. Those mags typically were 50s and 100s, which is why it was a cool little idea because yeah, you pick up the gun, you got a whole lot of firepower if you jump out of the bathtub bare naked, so it was neat in that respect. The 5.7 cartridge will sting your hind end if not kill you dead, dead, dead. So don't forget, don't laugh at these designs. However, it is the answer to a question that was never asked with regard to making the magazine as complicated as possible because of what it has to do. It actually pivots around 90 degrees or perpendicular to the way it lays in order for it to feed to the weapon. Now, but they work. And as long as they work perfectly in a dry condition or under, you know, absolute minimal dirt circumstances, hey, that's fine by me, whatever, okay? But the, and the 5.7, it's a good saddle gun pistol combination. The PS90 combined with an FN and 5.7 pistol, a lot of firepower. I still think that pistol would be fine for most radio operators because again, it's got this massive magazine capacity. In such a small compact size 4 compared to any other with that type of capacity. Exactly. Period. Far none. That's why it's a neat little weapon. Now in this case these are only 30 round mags but they're only $17 apiece guys and they're factory FN mags. So, for those of you who have that PS-90, grab these. I recommend it. There's 34 of them there, personally. Anybody who has a 5.7 pistol or a 5.7 rifle, you guys better be grabbing every mag and you should be grabbing every round you can because for the last year and a half it has been a dry spell. I know because I've had everybody asking. Now there have been a few places like Cabela's, like one of our callers mentioned the other day and mentioned the chat room. Yeah, on and off. But for the most part they were completely out of everything and everybody was out of 5.7 and FN was told by the government not to bring any more in. Well, guess what? One of the American companies, federal, started picking up a contract or run on it. So I think FN realized, you know what? We stay out of the business. We're going to be out of the business because people are going to be making it cheaper. I would right now buy the federal over the FN ammunition because the FN ammo is more expensive and I'm not getting anything special out of it. The ball ammunition, in fact, I can get FN ball, or actually, forgive me, I can get federal ball 5.7. for about a third less if not a little more depending on who you buy it from and it's the same thing you can load and I can get in a ball ammo I couldn't get ball rounds in FN because it wouldn't bring them in so piss on them it's like everything FN and HK are the most arrogant bastards on the planet to deal with and I have no use for them. Ever since Bill died. Yeah the great great toys I mean come on guys FN FL we know it's a fine weapon FN 49 Fabric National arms to gear it was the mother of all of those rifles it's a great weapon But as far as the company goes where they're so suck up anti-gun, they anti-gun their own countries to death and then they come over here and start pissing in our pool and well they want to sell to us because they can't sell to anybody over there. But then when they do, they still piss on everybody, no magazines available or they restrict ammunition and even then, oh we only sell to the police, this stuff. Well then you don't need to sell to me and I got a lot of other American companies and I'll talk them down. I'll talk about that in that respect. Now if you got it, like I said, if you committed to this weapon system you better buy more mags and while the ammunition is available, the next time I hear from you, you should have a pallet full. And I'm not exaggerating because if they're already cutting this off and we're not in bad shape, what do you think is going to happen when you get cut off? Where do you think the price of the ammo is going to go? When you have an exotic or unique caliber, you need to focus on buying as much as you can while you can. That's why I've been pointing out the other standard military calibers. If you got them and you do, there are millions of 303 British rifles. We either carried back from the wars or we bought a surplus. There are tens of millions of K98 Mausers. We either carried back from war or we've been using for gear rifles and plinker rifles for decades guys. Actually for the last hundred plus years, let's put it that way. So the 8mm Mauser is one of those things where whenever you see it grab it and keep putting it away. If you've got a Mauser you're going to be competing with a lot of other people who have Mausers but didn't think about buying ammo. See how that works? So get what you can while you can. Now down anything else before we go please jump in there. I think I heard another voice. Do we have a caller? Yes, Mark this time this is Arizona calling. I got to follow up on what I did this morning on the Micro effect if I may see who played. Please go go. Okay, very good. Wednesday at 9 15 in the morning Arizona time there were three C-17s that westbound somewhere between 2,000 and 3,000 feet above ground level, AGL. And they were approximately 35 miles south of Phoenix and about 45 miles east of Gila Bend, just a little bit north of Interstate 8. And it might just be a regular thing, but I've seen C-17, C-130s, the whole nine yards, synopes, Blackhawks, all the time out here for the last 11 years. But there are a lot of helicopters, the C-17, C-141, C-130s, they're usually up 20,000 feet, either leaving from Gila Bend or arriving towards, but never this low. three of them and they were right behind each other in all the single file, not like in the missing man formation or anything. I'd say maybe there were only at the max maybe 20 seconds between each one. I'm thinking that it might have been closer to 10 seconds between that. The second thing is, this morning, that about 45, 0745 Arizona time. There was one 3130 and he was only about 1 to 2000 feet AGL. He was eastbound. He came in kind of in a, from the northwest headed towards the southeast, got behind the ridge line of mountains, banked sharply at about, oh, I don't know, I bet you put it up into a real steep bank at least 30 degrees, headed out and then he headed two east for about one minute and then banked around back and continued on his southeast early direction. Obviously, the C-17s, the Air Force model, the C-130 from this morning is a gray-white. I know the Air Force and the Marine Corps fly them both at about the same time. But, once again, never this far. This C-130 that went through here, he had to pedal to the metal. And cruise speed seems to me it's somewhere about 350 knots. But he was doing every bit of that. No, it makes a great deal of sense, like you said. Remember back when the Haasenfusch got shot down in Nicaragua? If you're only on the border. Before that happened guys, our CIA airfield over here will run right next to where they just bought the old bomber plant. Right in the corner there, that's one of the little CIA outposts we're not supposed to know about. Well they were running C-123s, which is by the way what Haas & Fuss was a kicker on down there during operations. And just before that happened, they were flying, and I'm not exaggerating, literally I could have thrown a 12 ounce can in my hand, a pop, I could have thrown it and hit him. They were flying NOE operations right through the northern end of downtown Ann Arbor. along the Huron River. In fact, literally the operation of the exact cookie cutter of how they got shot down. They came in out of the north, they flew right over all of the high buildings, low buildings. In fact, they went between a building that actually Bates Housing and Bursley Hall at tree top level went right down. I figured he was a wrecker. I thought he was going to burn. because he was that low in a civilian population area on North Campus of Ann Arbor. He went right down into the valley and by the time I stepped to the end of the building he had gotten down into the valley and literally was running the river. I mean literally running the river. And then went right on down eastbound towards Ipsilanti, Michigan, banked up and went over the town, then did another circle around the whole area and then landed over at Willow Run. Maybe you can see from the buildings. I went up to the upper floor and watched him fly. Well, the interesting thing is, after watching these and they were in the area, operational for about another three weeks or so, then there was a lull and then all of a sudden we heard about Mr. Hossen for us getting captured as the sole survivor, you know, being the supply kicker out of a C-123 that had been flying NOE and got its arson shot off with a, you know, a SAM-7. So, I see the same thing here where you're seeing this intense, all of a sudden activity flying NOE for insertion. It's either A, for them to try and plop somebody's ass over there in Syria, or B, to get us involved in the garbage over there with the Ukraine. Take your pick. inside the US but you know if they do it here we'll nail their hind end. If anything they start here we're gonna finish everybody's done with it. I talk to people that are strangers now and everybody's saying you know ain't no sense in talking to them it's just time to shoot them or they're like we need a revolution or blah blah blah. I hear it over and over again now and it's people that before they were like well we can we'll make them understand and it's like now they're like we're not listening and they're stealing from us left and right and the communist chinese run up and everybody knows it now no i just so just to make a comment you know i can understand it you know the if you look at the history of the area that after delta force and everything that they had gotten together in fort bragg and then went to egglin and did testing and everything and then this is out here is where they did a lot of their final test runs because the air, the ground, the humidity, the terrain is very similar to what they were going to encounter over there. And it seems to me just within the last day or two, Sec Desk said something about making some promise to Israel that they were going to do no matter what they were going to do to take care of the Iranian nuclear problem. Oh yeah, that would make sense. You had a third front. But the triple heads are being pulled around by their wiener So I wouldn't be surprised that the the yamakawares are laughing their arse off while they're trying to get him to do it Makes sense. We're breaking guys. I'll tell you what who else do we have there? This real quick. This is mark. I a little trip. You know, I'm going across country again here. I'm going to Philadelphia out of Oakland, but anyway, I just went through Albuquerque every bridge over the I-40 is full of American flag waivers, don't tread on me. Right now I'm in Wicke, Texas, every bridge over the I-40, same thing. Don't tread on me. I'm an M-Rellow right now and we've got really heavy traffic. People waving flags, don't tread on me. So, I mean, I'm talking hundreds of people. That's probably part of, again, what we were saying. What they're reporting in the Washington Post and what's happening are two different things. Yep, appreciate that. Thank you. We need more feedback from everybody like that. We're gonna go to break guys. We got to go Everybody stay where we are because we'll get back as quick as we can we got to do the ads and then we'll do the intro real quick God bless Republic. Death to the world order. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire is on the run, but we are on the margin for day and night. Do not interrupt over night vision and close us for the sour please.

Guys and Don's going to be available in a moment, although then you're going to have to wait a little bit, but remember... We need to take advantage of this first-gen rifle. Thank you, Don.

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. The 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.
