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. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is 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 born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will 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, keep the torch of freedom bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each god given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside 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? This realm? And goody. All callers are muted and they can unmute themselves. There we go, we're up. Sorry about that, Ed. I forgot to take it off lecture mode from BC's program. Do we have down there? We got down to the sound of lecture. Yes, we do. Ed, before we go any farther, it just brings everybody's heads up. We've got the banner up, the donation key up, guys. Go ahead, tell them what to do. We're raising $3,000 for the end of the year bill this year, well, $2,000 for the live 365 bill, and we're trying to raise funds for an upgrade to one of the computers down here in Dickinson. And if you want to go to libertytreeradio.4mg.com, that's our homepage for Liberty Tree Radio. You'll see it just below the reflectors in the middle of the page, the amount we're trying to raise and the amount we've raised so far. We're up to $237 and I just got that posted on the website. And if any other donations have come in since then, I'll get them added as soon as I can. Very good. So guys, we're on the march. We've got to get this done. It's a once a year thing. You guys have all stepped forward. Well, I'm going to say thank you. Real quick, Dad, I'm going to remind everybody, we do need to get this done, but we're in no hurry. It's not due until October 7th. a lot of time for people to chip in and if everybody just does a dollar or like our friend did in the other hour donated just a dollar for each month of the year, it won't take that much to get this done and nobody's going to break their bank. There we go. Again, and that is on the page, libertytreeradio.4mg.com. Guys, the only thing I would say is, the sooner we can achieve that, remember we know we've got the balance for the bill, and we're looking at the upgrades. Ed, you got the sound cards I sent down, the used ones? Yeah, I have. The one looks like the Sound Blaster card looks nice. There is a problem with it I'm trying to fix. If I can fix it, it'll probably be in use here pretty soon. There were some really interesting designs there. Some of those are gaming guards, I assume, but maybe useful. Actually, audio performance cards. The one looks like it was the upgrade to the Audigy like I had before, the one that the FCC took. The only problem I can see with it is somebody plugged into its slot where you would attach the cord to the front device, the wrong type of cable, and just cut it off. So that's the part I'm trying to work it off and then find the right cable to hook up to it to get the front panel working properly. I'll watch the wreckage here because there's been some other sound cards I should have grabbed two of them for spare parts. I'll just pull all of them because there's some wreckage that they've been piling up and actually been some nice machines. Sadly enough other people have been pulling stuff off them so I won't cry or hesitate to take the other parts off. So I'll get the rest of the fixtures and fittings off of that. Off those there's more than one. Okay, very good. Thank you for the update. We appreciate that. And good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Evening Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Cornke. And I'm Don Betcher. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, west, northwest, north, and southeast.

We've still got water sitting on the ground from the rain this morning here and there. It was not heavy, guys. We didn't get any beater rain, Don. We got a saturation rain and the plants have gone crazy and I keep chopping at grass spots as I walk around the yard or get stuff moved because I got to keep killing it. You know what I mean? It's really healthy down here as far as the growth factor goes. Problem is, it's in other areas, we got to keep the mosquitoes out too. So we're working on that. It is Thursday of course, and again an open subject day, but I was talking about any tank weapons this afternoon and anti-vehicular equipment, technology, flamethrowers, Molotov, recoilless weapons. Guys, remember that when you are producing improvised anti-tank weapons or whatever, you don't have to be standing next to them. We are a resource-rich country. This is not, you know, Iraq, you know, starved and bombed for 20 years. Not yet. And because of that, remember, for improvised munitions and technology, let me point something out. Don, how many cars do you think there are in the United States? one per person and perhaps one and a half. If not more, right? Now guys, when you walk over to that car, don't look at that as a piece of wreckage or as an automobile. Look at that as a how many weapons and things can I make from what's sitting there. Oh, as far as actual reusable weapons or systems. Now, I mentioned when I was talking about the recoil, making a recoiled weapon using a bag charge with whatever powder, you know, you can build or make black powder. You don't have to buy black powder. You can make black powder. I would remind everybody that, you know, you have to be careful with all chemicals improvised or standard. Number one, static electricity is not your friend. Number two, Guys, moisture kills all chemical processes where there's drying involved, especially since most munitions need to be prilled to a degree. Now what that means is that the moisture has been extracted through a drying process. It's like oven dried. Yes, it can be with a, in fact, when you dry by a lot of chemical plants you will see towers, you know, they look like cylinders that go up and then they have these coils around them. Well, those are prill towers typically. Now there are other things that those do. Those can also be extraction rod towers. There's a number of different things that they do. But in a drying process, The idea is that, number one, you don't want to build up static electricity or produce it. You have to have a way to be able to churn or move the material so that air can pass, warm air can pass through it, and extract, or again, calories can be pulled through to pull the moisture off and to reduce the moisture content to the greatest degree. Now, Black Putter is forgiving in some ways with that because Black Putter can be actually wet and dried and wet and dried. You don't want to do it too many times. But in the field you've got to remember that when Black Putter was first developed, do you think that there were plastic containers and Ziploc bags around to keep everything from getting wet? Oh no. In fact, just in reverse, when we look at the depths of time where black powder came from, while there were cool ideas and ways to make things secure from the environment, pretty much all of them were organics. Example, beeswax, human waste, all kinds of fun stuff. Urine is actually used for many chemical processes, human urine. to the point where in many societies open urinal tanks were offered like in front of, well for instance in Rome, you had these large brass or copper or steel, you know, iron cauldrons that were proffered out on the road in front of the laundromats and it was a place for you to offer your steaming yellow libations that they might be used inside for the laundry. What? Oh yeah, you didn't want to be a laundromat person. It was a very special experience. Where do you think they got their ammonia from? Oh! See, before we had all these wonderful things that are out of sight, out of mind, everything came from something else. That's why I laugh. I don't know if you've seen this, but they've got this picture of a butcher shop, a butcher plant. And they're like, for people who on the one hand used to be all telling you how they wanted to be all unnatural, and we wanted to be hippies and do everything from nature and from the natural things, well there's a picture of all these chunks of bone and the end parts of what's been done to a cow, and they're moving them around in a big stock, you know, like a stock room, you know, where they're just piled up. And it's like, this is where gummy bears come from! Oh my god, are you gonna eat gummy bears? Yep, with a heartbeat. Oh, by the way, juju jellos come from there, gummy, the mints come from there, the spirit mints. Yeah, gumdrops. Oh, but here's another thing, for all of you who are being diet conscious, that's the same place where your jello comes from. Jello. Oh my God! Yes, and it's quite an old process. It's quite all in nature all because it's taking advantage of every last thing that that animal is made out of so it doesn't go to waste. Now why? Well, because in societies, when something is found to be available as a mass-produced item, if it is a castaway item, it used to be there were people called entrepreneurs, and they would figure out how to take that sow ear and turn it into a silk purse. Literally. Well, at least their purse would become silk because they would take that product that nobody else wanted and they figured out how to make it into something valuable and useful, you know, like gasoline. Oh, remember, I've repeated this story many times. Guys, my grandfather worked in the fields in Oklahoma back before the internal combustion engine was dominant. He lived to be in his 90s. This is back around the turn of the century. We had lots of oil fields. You know what they did with the gasoline that came off the cracking plants? Gasoline and the naphthalenes and a lot of the other stuff. Well, they certainly did find places to use them. Everything from dry cleaning. Okay, naphthalene is used in dry cleaning, remember, the old process? Well, there's a lot of other things that we had, and all the eens were typically pulled off, and gasoline was pulled off, dumped into acres of open fields. And my grandpa's job was to take a flare gun and kind of aim for center of mass, go, boom! And then, whoa! The gasoline would be burned away because it was a what? A waste product that nobody wanted or could use fast enough to get rid of it all. Let's go back to that example of the pigs here. About 25 years ago, they first came to market fried pork rinds in the pet store. You might remember this. You could buy four or six when it seemed... People looked at them. I watched in that time frame. People would look at them and grimace. Oh gosh! But other people would buy them for their dogs. Dogs love those. Again, when they first came to market, they were like four or six for a dollar. Now it's like a dollar a quarter, dollar fifty for one. Look at the price shift. Look at what's happened to the market. Because they found there was a value to it instead of just a dump. Let's see what we can, we got to be able to do something with it. Let's see if the, oh hey, let's fry this one up. The dog loves it. Or at least somebody got into the mindset of doing that and they promoted it. Yes. See, that's what an entrepreneur does. That's why people, how do economies work? This is what we're talking about here. You know, first of all, you're so far removed from the real world in terms of dealing with things, from death, to the natural processes which most all of your societies are built upon. The bad part about that, I know here's the thing, in Japan they call them the ETA. The ETA are the people who used to deal with dead things. In India they call them plainly the untouchables, the lower caste. Yes, and the idea behind this though is that they are the ones who would deal with all of the problems in society that were uncouth for the well to do or for the upper strata, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But without them that upper strata would not have existed. to something also people don't think about well this included handling livestock there dead and chickens are dead and all the other which by the way they had but on the other hand all eating of meat was considered to be all except for fish was considered to be a except that progressively as western society moved in so did steak Yeah, everybody understand that? See, like horses were considered unique in themselves and expensive enough. And only for royalty and typically again the samurai, the shogunate types, all of those had the horses because they could afford them. Or if you were well to do and were business, you might have one. But everybody else was basically ordered to travel on foot and kept contained that way. in Japan. That's the history of Japan, the Japanese islands. And they're all so important, you know, that they manipulated the society always because they were saving the roadways that they had, how limited they were. No, it was a way to keep the population down. It's clear and simple. It was just that easy. And there was a caste system. And there was a whole process to that. But There were people who pressed the envelope and changed that society in different ways. In fact, giving the samurai firearms, now that came from outside, but remember they built them in country. So the same skilled craftsmen and tradesmen that built the sword, though not to the great degree that the sword was perfected, and many other weapons from hull perks to clubs to bludgeon to pikes to whatever. Well, also built the firearm. And the firearm became an artisan's science unto itself because they embraced firearms the same way they embraced the sword. And then the firearms were outlawed but they kept the sword. And they kept killing each other with swords. You know, we'll stop that. You'll whoa! That really had hurt, did it? No, not really, but there's a lot of blood. It's really rather messy, to say the least. Oh, don't forget, Hatchetmen 2 died. Yeah, and then firearms came back. That was the basis of the movie Samurai with Tom Cruise. Right, yes. And by the way, again, there's a whole, just to give you a qualification on the, for instance, that aspect of a society, if you go to any college or university, there are whole classes on the Samurai arts with regard to martial weapons. And that includes firearms. Because firearms, in and of themselves, were a skilled craft, you know, a guild niche. onto itself. Now, we're going to go full circle, let's go back to where we were with the whole idea of that car sitting there. Okay? I pointed out the fact that, well, if I had to improvise, I'm going to take my little black and white wire, pull it out of my, I'm going to insert, let, now nobody's going to, nobody asked and I didn't bring this up. If I need to make a bag charge to make things go boom, if I want to make a, an artillery piece and make it electronically fired rather than making it so that it is going to be using a cannon fuse, Guys, it's not that hard because we're already into the 21st century and we have the 20th century to fall back on. Electronic matches can be made from a number of different things, but at the very least, how many cars still have light bulbs in them, right? Not LEDs. Not LEDs, but LEDs I can fabricate and make the same thing work because remember that little LED element in there is going to a supercharged temperature, right? Yep. So if I'm really mean, especially since down the latest LEDs are cheap China plastic junk, right? Not glass like they used to be. Glass I'd have to work harder at. But if I wanted to make an electronic match, I can either take, for instance, a light bulb that has that fine little element in it, I can very carefully wrap that and I can snap the glass and I can take the glass off leaving the filament intact. Now I have to be careful with a light bulb but let me give you a little hint here. When I go to yard sales, like we got the Boy Scout sale coming up pretty soon, I grab every flash cube and flash bulb and old flash bulb I can find, guys. Why? They're built for this purpose. Yes, that filament in there, all I have to do is compromise the glass and I can be careful and even do it in two places. I don't even take all the glass off, I don't have to. But if I compromise that filament, or compromise the containment vessel, that vacuum tube that that filament is in, what I get is the thermal couple that creates the flash where the manganese that's in there goes WOP! and creates that bright flashy you're oh so excited about? Okay. Well when I eliminate that outer casing I now have something that generates so many calories. I solder two electrical lines, one black, one white, or here's the thing, I'm looking at that junk car. Guys, how many miles of light gauge cheap China junk wire is on board every car you're driving? How many miles? So if I need a lead, a wire to go from my match that I'm creating, I solder to both of the connections, the base and the side, or to the one line and the other line, because remember a lot of these are plug and play nowadays, the lights or the bulbs or whatever, or the flash bulbs, remember they either have the two filament light leads on the bottom I solder or rat, well ideally I want to solder. That would be my best choice because I get a better connection. I want good power going to my little flash cube that now is bare and open. I'm going to stick that in the middle of my bag charge, but before I do that I'm going to take both of my leads and I'm going to make sure that I tape off the end so there's no possibility of contacts on the outside end. I'm also going to make sure that if I can I take a small piece of electrical tape, cut it down to size, and cover both of the bridge points where those two connectors are. Why? Any accident at this point is very embarrassing for the operator. I don't want to bridge and create a circuit anywhere if I can help it. So I use common sense and I am very anal retentive about survival. Now I've covered the area where the two contacts are that have the two wires coming out. The wires can be as long as possible if you want. And again they should be because I want to be away from my electronic squib, my electronic match. So the next thing I'm going to do is I'm going to take my bag charge of black powder, I'm going to put my squib inside the middle of that, and then I'm going to secure it through the contact or entrance point and seal up the containment vessel the rest of the way. Now I don't want a real hard solid device because I don't want it to be like an encased piece of metal or something like that. Now you can do that for ease of loading but remember it has to be very thin, thin, really hyper-thin wall. You could use, for instance, what would work very well is a plastic throwaway container, usually China Sport gauge thickness from the dollar store, something that had jelly or peanuts or something in it that's the same bore as the tube we made our recoilless unit out of. Now why am I doing that? Well, my powder charge can be in there. I can have a hole drilled through the top. I put my match inside, run my leads through the top of that, screw the lid in, grease that lid in. When I say grease, we mean sealing. I use a sealing compound. It can be bathtub, caulk, whatever. I seal the container. And then I also bathtub caulk the area where the two wires come out. I now have a complement charge that I can lay into the tube from the back end. I squeeze it and ideally you want it so it has a snug fit so it doesn't just slide around or fall out or anything. Real simple if you have to move something. But I move it into place behind the back of my shape round that I built or my dart round that we were talking about in the two hour block. And now I've got my charge in place. It's a black powder charge. It can be about a quarter pound to a half pound of black powder of whatever grade, grade one, grade two, or grade three. It doesn't make any difference. you're going to get variances in energy but not that great and remember that the burn and the level of slap is a lower velocity than say conventional smokeless powder. Now a reminder RPG2s and RPG7s were originally built working off the cheapest largest flake powder available so they could create a lot of RPGs. Now it's not really rocket propelled, it's recoilless propelled grenade. Did you know that? That's really what RPG was originally meant to be. Recoilless propelled grenade. Now when I run the wires off the back, I have both wires secured, I've got tape on the ends of the leads. When I run it out to my power source with a switch system, when I bridge that and make a complete circuit, what's going to happen is the power goes down the line, the flash element or the light bulb element. Now the problem with the light bulb element is I don't want to be bouncing that around a whole lot. So that would have to be in a fixed, abandoned piece of equipment, something where I'm going to put it in place, it's not going to bounce around. When I cap it, the filament activates, goes to temperature, activates the powder, slaps the back of my recoilless slug, and my round or dart goes down range and goes through that MRAP at about, oh, probably between 2,400 and maybe 3,000 feet per second. Ooh, but wait it, you said it was a steel dart mark. Yeah, and we're talking about focused energy slapping the base of a snugly fit device that's going down a tube that's going to direct it. The dart has been stabilized. It goes on to target. I don't need to be that far away. I don't have to worry about a fusing system. I'm not worried about trying to make something, you know, go boom. I'm going to shish kabob whatever I'm shooting. Okay, now the other cool thing about the wire, I can go back out as far as I need to and get completely away from the projector slash the recoilless weapon so that in the event I've miscalculated something where there's a flaw in the metal tube, I'm not anywhere near it. But I'm going to point something out, even if the tube failed, it can be a thick walled steel, it can be quarter inch, not iron, steel, steel, steel, okay? You get all kinds of devices you can find in junk yards, where you'll find the tube that you need. We discussed this. Cleaning up the tube and all that we talked about in the two-hour block. Now, the next thing is, remember when I run those leads out, any kind of power source is nice, but a little motorcycle battery is especially cool, very convenient to carry. It can be put into a hand box, you can put a couple of thumb nut screw points, you know, connectors, so that when you run your wire out, you quick strip your wire, wrap the leads around, make sure that you have a circuit protector to block your sandwich switch, so that it does not accidentally plop over and pre-detonate your device. Make sure that your safeties have safeties. That's simply a basic rule and that ensures, it also ensures the best way to do this is to use switching systems where you actually have a physical block so there is no possible way of an accidental contact. Now what I mean by that, well it can be a piece of stick, a piece of wood, ideally again not conductive material. But I put a piece of sheet metal between the, no that didn't do any good. Wow, it kind of went off before I expected to. Yeah, you weren't paying attention, were you? So, the idea behind this is that whatever switching system I use, by the way, light switches from houses work fine. Just a simple on-off switch. That's enough. You have a switch to control the circuit, you go snap, and it goes boom. Now again, remember, Mr. Recoilus weapon and rocket projectors are not your friends from behind. Remember, that's why the guy calls out, RBG! When he fires, you want to know why? It's not the stuff going down range he's worried about. You're all supposed to be giving a heads up to know that when I fire, there's something coming out of the arse of that weapon that will kill you just as dead of what just left the front. Remember that recoilless devices have one third of the energy slapping forward because they have resistance, but about anywhere from five eighths to two thirds will push out the back. But the advantage of a recoilless weapon is no recoil systems, there's no having to worry about stability, the sighting system is uniform, there virtually is no motion for the launcher. If you feel confident and you've developed a good design, literally if you look at a recoilless rifle, go to YouTube, go to Google, look up Recoilless Weapons, Recoilless Rifles. Note that the operator is literally standing next to the weapon and in many cases the sight system is kind of like a little periscope. He doesn't actually look down range while parallel with the gun tube. He in fact typically is looking or is sitting perpendicular to the length of the weapon and is observing an optical device which adjusts and he has an adjustment system to elevate and traverse the gun. Or it's shoulder fired and he's working in it from another direction. And all the motion you see when it's shoulder fired is just flinch. Right, exactly. It's human nature. It's the flinch factor slash the energy of the body. In fact, being able to first set you sit with, in every situation with shoulder fired recoilless, the recommendation is obvious that you obviously should try to get some support for the bipod or for the fire control system, which can be a pistol grip or like the old 90 millimeter recoilless, had a set of steel studs that came out from say a 45 degree angle to each other. in the shortened model. The shortened model of 90 millimeters still out there in service in the US Army in places, guys. And it is very simple to operate, but it had a couple of steel studs that are bought in a bipod. They're also, again, a stapling handle for the shooter, depending on how you were taught or how you implement utilizing the gun, depending upon cover and protection that you have. Okay? Anyway, I want to finish that because the electronic device, remember watch for, now we're talking light bulbs, remember that filament, you have to make sure the filament is not compromised. Conventional light bulbs could be used the same way, any conventional light bulb, even big light bulbs in houses. With LEDs, I mention that but I'll finish the thought on it. An LED is an encapsulated light emitting diode. The diode of course builds up calories, agitates the material and creates a visible light spectrum. It's an energy pulse that you can see. It actually also is pulsing because remember it works at a certain frequency and that resonates at a certain frequency. You don't see it, you can't visually see it. But if you were to play with a camera and slow everything down, you could see how it pulses. We're not worried too much about that because it's only going to pulse once and that'll be all she wrote. If you were to take a knife and score the plastic LEDs that are out there, you expose the fascia filament of the LED. Now, it will still activate, but remember it is generating calories. And that will do the same thing that that flash cube or that that light element will do with regard to activating the black powder or the charge that you are going to use for your recoilless round. Okay, so there's another solution. It is not the easiest because darn that plastic is hard on those LEDs. The other devices we're talking about like the car lights that are in the front end of the car that are hyper bright. Notice those are really super bright seal beams that are not even seal beams. They're just plugging in beams with a reflector now, right? With most of the new ones. Well, how hot do you think that bulb's getting in there? Think about that filament that's in the middle of that bulb. That's a rigid filament by the way. If you expose that and put that in the middle of a powder charge and you run 12 volts to that or even five or six volts to that, guess what? It's gonna get more than hot enough that you're gonna hear boom. Okay, so everything off that car can be scavenged for lighting, security, anti-personnel, by the way, nuts, bolts and screws for making things and putting other things together. Sheet metal, plastic, any number of things, not only for making, you know, weapon systems, but also for making production items to build other things. So don't look at it as a wreck. Look at it as a parts supply hardware store. Oh, yeah. See how that is? And even get a comfortable seat down. You can take the bucket seat out front, put that next to your recoilless weapon, and the operator in the back of the truck, if you give him a little bit of a turret platform configuration made from a couple of other items off the car, well, he could actually sit down in some comfort while he's busy using the implement of destruction. And here I thought you were going to talk about making a claymore out of the four cylinder engine block. Well that too. Oh yeah, well that's where he, that's the next thing. Remember, be creative with all the hardware. If the engine's blown, If the engine is still good, we may need it for something else. But if it's a fragged engine and it's got a hole in it or something like that... But there might not be gasoline for miles. Yeah. But you know what, you guys, the hot rodters, they take this stuff and they pour it in the bottoms of the older V8s, especially when they do strokers and they're boring them out a lot. When the walls get thin, they fill the bottom with something that's almost akin to concrete. Now, they generally fill about the bottom. bottom third. It's a lot harder to keep these motors cool, but the hot rotters generally only care about a quarter mile at a time. But if you don't care about that motor at all, how about you find a place where the bad guys move through every once in a while, but they have to move through there just because of the lay of the land. You find a place where you can hollow out the hill. or just a little rise. You can lay that motor block into it. You've taken that bag of concrete and you've poured it into the cylinder head and punched out all the pistons. When that cylinder head is off, you're looking at all those little holes in the top. Those are generally coolant holes. mix up that concrete really sloppy and pour it in there and let it set. Now that motor block is going to get a lot heavier but it's going to make those cylinders a lot more rigid from bottom to top, not just around the bottom where the hot rodters want that motor block a little more solid and secure. We want to make a big bore, four of them, big bores and if we can we want to expend all of that energy directly to the front. How do you do that? You don't collapse any bores while the thing is going up and the boom is going down range and getting them. Now you find that place in the hill, that rise, that place where you can just move this back into the ground and about a foot behind that, especially if it's in a hill and you can dig down behind it, you pour the rest of that bag of concrete in there. Now you might put a piece of wood behind the bottom of the bores or whatever at the bottom of that cylinder block. You fill that area so it just doesn't blow away dirt. And you lay this into the ground in such a way with marked triggers, mean little things like nuts and bolts and glass and some of the stuff that the dog leaves, dog residue and cow residue just because. When they move through a particular area, I don't know if you would be able to touch one off at a time, but four off at a time would certainly be vicious if there were a number of people in front of it. Oh, I think one at a time would be number one, considering the energy and pressures that those cylinders could take. Think about the same way that they do fireworks displays where you have canisters side by side by side. If you fill the bottom of that cylinder and fill that cylinder block with concrete, I'm certain that one charge might not set off the charge next to it. You might not have that griefless revolver syndrome. Oh, no, I don't think so. I think it would be secure. In fact, you can be precautionary. Here's the trick. For instance, find a tube, carpet tube, that's about the same size as each of the cylinders. and you could actually make a reloadable charge. It could go inside the cylinder wall, inside the cylinder, and each time you fire, you pull the tube and load the next cardboard tube in immediately. In fact, it would be a great way to make a poor man's colstrum mortar or a trench mortar. like they did in World War I. It would be heavy. But it would be, you know what, it wouldn't be hard to think about this. Let me give you an example of a comparable weapon system, guys. German 75mm pack howitzers used by the infantry in World War II. You've all seen pictures of them. It's that little stumpy barrel thing that was even shorter than the US pack 75s we took into World War II that were made for the airborne and were made for the Marine Corps. The ones that you see look almost like they have a shroud that looks almost like it's a muzzle loader. You've seen them before, double carrying handle in the rear. It was designed to be folded up and manhandled and is very compact. Structural steel, holes drilled in the steel so that it lightens the frame of the carriage. That was a comparable weapon, but the German model had a very short, short tube, although it was rifled, but that's not necessary. In World War I, they made comparable weapons utilizing, oh, what did they do? Oh, they used nothing but artillery shell casings. Now, that block you just recommended, Don, is a hell of a lot better than a thin-wall brass shell, I'd say. So, guess what? That would mean lobbing something down range or like you said turn it up horizontal, aim it in a direction and boom. Oh, they're still coming. Boom. Oh, there's a lot less of them. Boom. The last ones are twitching now. The other option there would be people and if you read about this ground crews tend to overestimate or underestimate the speed of the airplane. If you have three or four hits at it, you might get it once. Mr. Shotgun is your friend. Yeah. Wow, it's like we were talking about, remember what they call the mutiny duckfoots, where you had the mutiny pistols, the anti-mechanical. Yeah, like a pistol with four or six the oppression in its own time. Then you just bonk them on the head with the pistol burl which is made of brass. It's made out of brass for a reason. The first duck foot went blop and got a couple or three or four. The next one blop got a couple or three or four. After that, big more pistol, come on! That can be loaded with 3 or 4 or 5 30 caliber pellets rather than just one big 58 caliber ball round. Then after that, like I said, you've got a club in one hand because you flip it around, hold the barrel, and you've got the burrow, and you've got your cutlass. Now you're hacking and chopping up the pile that's trying to get through the door. Here I thought you were going to talk about taking those axles out of like that 440 Chrysler with that Dana rear end in it or that that big black Chevelle with that 12 bolt rear end in it, taking or truck axles and taking those out and cutting them and boring them and making rifles or well, even three quarter inch barrel guns and things like that with building things that well, just other people haven't done just because well, I got this piece of time and piece of metal and nobody's shooting at me right now and I think I'll try to make a gun out of this. If it's manufactured, it's going to be... Here's the basic rule about future manufacturing we need to think about. How many hours did it take to produce the product that is sitting in front of you? Number one. How much of what is already there that you can use, how much can you with your brain take advantage of without any additional man hours other than disassembly and reassembly? That's your first best choice. Number one. Number two. Since I know that it took so many man hours to actually turn the product, the plastic finished, the finished plastic molding product, the sheet steel, the steel, the iron, the copper, everything on board, how many calories, how much time did it take to get it to that refined process? Now, rather than going and mining or digging my own, I first should try to have a what we call first generation application where I can take something and turn it from what it is into something comparable that I can use. The next step is taking as many components that are similar to my final product that I need and adapting them into a production process to make a final product. The third step is utilizing either components that are of comparable material that I need or because they're scrap, damaged, and broken beyond repair after I've taken threaded stock off or straight bar stock off or sheet metal that is usable. The franged, bent, folded, spindled, mutilated components should be isolated by their production material type, copper, steel, zinc, pot metal, whatever's there. Then I can turn it into fragmentation, I can remold it, cast it and remold it into something else, or I will set it aside for production and another manufacturing process, but where smelting or other special processes require more man hours to produce. Now, not only do I have to be concerned with man hours, but calories. In other words, in order for me to take an object that is already shaped in one way, how many calories, how much heat does it take to commute that into something else? Those calories cost human time also because there's man hours to find the petroleum product or to create the electricity, to create the heat, whatever it is. So wherever I am looking at an object, my first mission is to think and look at the geometry, the physics, the physical potential of whatever it is that is in front of me. And because it benefits me to the most, if I do the least, to get it from one step to the other. You see how that works? In other words, I don't have to mold everything. See, people are conditioned to that degree. Now, on the other hand, remember, I also have to perfect the skill and technology to create micro-foundries. Here's an example. Guys, have you ever looked at any pictures of what downtown Kabul looks like in Afghanistan? Do you see a lot of junk laying around? I mean real pictures. I'm talking, you know, one of the eerie things about it is like on the corner of one street, you know, there's one spot that just comes to mind. You've got this modern building from the 60s. Everybody pictures the mud huts of whatever. Well, Kabul was the center of the rising, you know, modern age of Afghanistan, right? Yeah, right. Well, Anyway, hold on. One of the things is they have modern construction, modern buildings, really cool design, etc. But then right across the street is this building that looks like it's sinking into the dust of eight. The inside of the building is absolutely flat and barren. But there's no trash, guys. Have you noticed that? Anything. If it burns, if it can be bent, if it can be melted, if it can be reprocessed, it's not laying around. It's somewhere else. If somebody owns it, they're not going to let you carry it away. But they're not going to leave it laying around so someone can take it later. That's where you have a society that, well, by the way, look at the terrain beyond Kabul. Do you see large ranging forests? Do you see wide expanses of massive pine trees or oak trees to cut down and process? You don't, do you? So whatever you have that's man-made, well before it gets converted into something else, it'll be used as is because there's only so many calories available in terms of energy. Hey, that dead car, if you're starting to strip it. the alternator and you know those great big leads those heavy wires that come off of the alternator that go down to the starter and go back to the battery that should always every time leave the vehicle with the alternator every time that gauge material is absolutely needed and is toughest to reproduce in order to reproduce it you can do gang wiring but it's not the same guys in fact that's an old electricians trick if you're in a hurry and you're desperate you can create gang wires to simulate the same resistance but it heats up a lot quicker. Oh yeah, and your casings and your insulation are going to disappear because it's going to build up calories, you're going to transmute energy and yeah, you'll get it where it needs to go but you're going to have other issues that can be a problem if you have any other combustibles around. Now that's going to go to the guy with the bicycle and you know what, he might want that tensioner off the front of that block too that takes that belt and makes it tighten. By the way, you didn't leave the belt there either, did you? Yeah, especially with these new serpentine. the serpentine belt. You guys, you could take a bicycle system, you know, and a serpentine belt and drive four or six alternators. Now that would be a little workout because it's going to take some horsepower to do that, but you could do that if a fella didn't have anything else to do while he was sitting around waiting for the war. That's right. And even if he did have things to do, he might assign everybody the opportunity to work out their leg muscles. Yep. Because you need the power for something else, like maybe lighting for your medical department because you've got surgery going on and you've got troops that need to be saved. Or maybe you've got a machine you need to run for a little bit like that 12-volt drill you put a couple of connectors on and the alternator is powering up that battery you pulled off from underneath the hood. and with a couple pieces of wire off another part of the car made in a clamping system you then apply rather than a battery to that throw away 12 volt electric drill that nobody wants because oh that's right you can't get batteries for it anymore but it's a 12 volt system. Well you run two leads up inside there and you solder those to those two battery connectors. Now you've got a 12 volt drill that will run off that 12 volt battery and you can put a 10, 12, 15 foot extension cord on it hooked up to that 12 volt system. and you can start disassembling that car with a drill rather than with a screwdriver because you have all the tools you need so when you bring the next wreck in it takes a lot less time to disassemble and start to sort parts. Oh yeah see there's method to some craziness by grabbing those things everybody's throwing away because I can't get batteries from my old battery powered drill oh I'll take that you know I got a couple of Milwaukee's that were virtually I mean just heavy duty you know RAM like big drills that I got for free recently because batteries, you know, for the model I found out really aren't available but you know what, doesn't make any difference because what I, what we just did with it is we switched over to be a battery powered off your car. I need a drill off, you know, I've got a car right there. I put the two clamps, alligator clamps clip on the positive and negative and I got a drill I can use anywhere. It's a lot faster than my hands. variable output and variable speed. Hey, trigger control. And it's free. Everything was free. I didn't pay anything for any of the parts that made that. We got a caller. Who do we have? Mark, Georgia, Texas. I don't know if I used to love playing with them when I was in the Army. That is the M203 grenades launcher. I don't see them on today's importation. Oh, they're in there. They're out there. Remember that slow pressure high velocity? The thing is that A similar device could be made quite easily and in fact though I wouldn't be doing it PVC I can make a throwaway version of PVC. 40 millimeter the problem, the biggest issue is again remember 40 millimeter grenades require a spin. That's the one thing to remember is because 40 millimeter grenades are US models and the NATO model have a spin control safety on them. That's why when you see all these movies where you see them firing a 40 millimeter at point blank range and they showed it going off. That's another fiction from Hollywood, guys. If that round does not travel far enough to go so many RPM, the kinetic safety doesn't disengage and all it is is a big 40 millimeter bullet. It will not go boom. It may be it will mark. It's an impact activated grenade. Yes, so many feet out. Because it has to go so many feet out to spin before it will go pap and that cap will activate. Otherwise there is a physical safety, literally a bar, a physical safety locking the cap in a cap activator in place. Just like in Heartbreak Ridge when they got used to a grenade launcher. Poop! Out so many and it hits the target. Right, it has to go out and travel so far. If it's within that distance. See this is what I pointed out years ago. If you're old enough, you might remember they made them as epic events where one soldier was shot with a 40mm that got lodged in his chest. Well, they didn't know whether it was only a foot away from spin to active. So, what they would do is they would go away from the hospital, they would set up a sandbag operating room, and typically the doctor that would operate would volunteer and the nurse would volunteer. They covered that on national media back during the Vietnam War. They didn't know if there was one more turn left, one quarter of a turn, one hair of a breath of a turn, and that grenade was active. So what the surgeon had to do is, number one, keep the guy alive, which they were doing, and then he had to surgically remove and without manipulating or changing the attitude of the round, his job and the nurse's job was to get that big 40 millimeter plug out of that wound channel, and without changing the direction or angle or lay of that round, he had to get it away from everybody. Sometimes he did, well, sometimes the bear gets you. I'm jogging everybody's memory because there's a few times where the doctor and the nurse, well, they paid with the guy that they were trying to save. armed grenade when it was out so far. That's the case. Now here's the thing with most of what everybody would be building, if you're improvising, guys there won't be any spin rotation safeties. However, instead what you do is you can use cotter keys, which are actually typically used for most weapons. A cotter key safety for warheads on a lot of devices are normal. They usually have what is called a spring wire wrap around safety retainer. Mr. Grenade, here's another thing, most of you see movies, all the grenades come right out of the box, ready to use, no they do not. Grenades come out in two formats. Now they do come assembled in one configuration, but they came also in tray configuration from the factory in two parts. One tray has the fuse systems. and there will be 24 to, usually 24, in other words, two dozen. But the lot, the quantity varies, I don't care what it is. The tray will have the fuse system in one area and have the charge system separate in the other. Now that's one way that they've come from ordnance. The other is completely assembled, but if they are completely assembled and or if it's that fuse kit over off to the right with the 24 pieces in it, Guys, there is a wraparound piece of wire that is a safety that is separate from the pin. Most of you won't even notice it or wouldn't if you're in a hurry. So if you pulled the grenade out of the pack and you pulled the pin and thought, I'm going to get them with Mr. Grenade, I hate to tell you that until you pop that other safety, that wire retainer spring holds the spoon in place and the fuse will not activate. It's on the outside. In fact, there is a special casting on the fuse assembly for the grenade that makes sure that that safety wire locks it. It actually has a little, oh, it looks like a bottle cap. You know, the wire bottle cap, they're made out of steel, but they're triangular on one end and you put it on the cap and you pop the cap off. Okay, guys, well that's what the little thing looks like and it actually is designed so you push it off with your thumb. That gets rid of that safety. You are still in control of the spoon. You then pull the pin. You have to take the wire safety off first. Pop that one. Now you're still holding and have control of the spoon and the grenade. You then pull the pin and then throw Mr. Grenade. Now most everybody does this. When they're back at the encampment or the prep point before they leave and before they've debarked with all their ordnance, Typically what you do is you pop that first safety off and it goes over to the side and you take safety tape, in other words paper tape, and you may wrap the spoon and secure it that way. But paper tape wears out, so if you're going to carry that grenade for a long time, you want to inspect those grenades if you're going to do that. Now why paper tape? Because paper tape cuts it with your finger. You can take your fingernail, you can just take your hand and brush the sides of the spoon, break the paper tape and that eliminates that safety. Then, pull the pin, use the grenade the way you normally would. Also, never pull the pin and hold the grenade. They promised you that you'd get a 3 to 4 second fuse. Promises are one thing, factory production is another. Yes, you can. Now you can do that because that's an immediate burn and that's an immediate pomper. But that also is what the Russians do. You've got to remember that both the engineers on our side and the engineers on the other side called sappers or combat engineers use grenades for anti-personnel mines. And when they do, they don't have a fuse delay. They use a zero fuse activator. And what that is, there's two ways to do that. Number one, You can either use the fuse delay because remember when the what what your fuse is is a little pistol When you let go of the spoon, the spring hits a primer. The primer activates a mechanical fuse. The mechanical fuse burns down to the squib, which is a blasting cap. The blasting cap is activated, which again initiates the expansion of the primary charge, and then fragmentation moves away from the epicenter of the blast, which can be copper wire, cast iron, or whatever they've used for the grenade hull. Now, the thing about it is that a short fuse that's used for booby traps is a more successful system because do you really want to give somebody a second or two to look up and realize they've capped a grenade? That's enough time to get away from something. Whereas if you go with a short zero fuse, then when they pull the door open it goes off immediately. However, any fuse in the storm, no matter what the fuse is on a grenade. But most important is no matter what you have. I have it on film. I came off of a helicopter. I actually was carrying the camera, guys. We were taking turns filming. This is a VHS camera I had in my hand. My job was going to be to throw the next smoke out. So I jump off and I actually have the smoke in my right hand. I even throw it. Okay, because it was an older smoke grenade, the thing went into catastrophic eruption. It actually expanded like a conventional flashbang grenade. And moving away from my hand, I could feel the concussion as it blew my hand back. Now, it didn't take any fingers off, but I caught it on the edge of the camera filming it when it detonated. Instead of burning the way that the smoke grenade, the high concentration smoke grenade should have because it was older and its composition had altered because it was green inside the smoke grenade, it actually had transformed to a degree into a higher velocity or well low velocity explosive. So you don't hang on to smoke grenades either. You don't hang on to smoke, you don't hang on to grenades. Throw them, they're not your friend. You know, that's something. We're past the top. But while you mention that green, you guys, you open up a case of ammunition that you haven't opened in years or you just ordered or grandpa's or whatever and you show green, it looks like it might be slimy, rusty ooze around the primer, around the top of the neck, you know, where the bullet meets the neck. Condemn that round do not put that round in your right or leave it for your enemy. Yeah, clean it all up, but man Oh man make him feel good about it. You do not you want it. It's a simple that Even if you clean it up and leave it for your enemy one of your friends might put it in his body better off if he is in. You may take a pair of pliers and crimp it so it can't be used by anyone. You crush it so it is not there's no mistake made. Again guys, first rule, Mr. Grenade is not your friend. Improvise munitions. Static electricity is your first enemy and you must always avoid any kind of exposure to any of your leads or contacts. Do not allow them to make contact at complete circles. You must be religious. About this to survive on the battlefield. Down you have a night vision. You can see that one's just about it. Death number two, three, one, seven, nine, six, eight, four, five, eight. God bless the Republic of the States and the World War. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the entire country.
