Live 365. 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'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, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside 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 to still the land of the free? Afternoon the intelligence report. I'm a quirky One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. We have Daryl with us. You can hear another dang, you might be late, or you may have other obstacles. The bubble machine will continue. Closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. On and behind. Occupied territories, wacky base stations and alternate technologies east and west of the Mississippi, along with Alaska. Homework never from the top of Maine to the better Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, Big John. I'm in Nebraska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both Pitt 3rd and 5th and our friends in the recall state of... Colorado. Waiting in the west coast where we have the great state of Jefferson, we turn back to the east, sweep across the plains, waving to the... That's right, the 12th sister in Wyoming on the way, across the plains, over the Mississippi. We land at the Spokey, splash the Blue Ridge, one of our spunkers, Grandma Team's okay, Team's in the Modville, Grandma Consortium, bring us. It is a... been a beautiful day today, it's a little cooler right now. I started to cool down a little. We're heading into fall here, guys. If you were in the sunshine today, it was... Now we've got a little bit of 40% cloud cover, 60% blue sky still heading towards sunset, and it's going to cool down for the night. So if you've got anything that needs to come in, remember at dew point, you have a lot of moisture in the air. We did last night too. Take the time, bring that equipment in, make sure it's covered up, and be prepared for the next wave in weather. Finish up what you can to get stuff covered up. Now, with that in mind, well, it is, well, today is Wednesday. Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist. Time to get it all done in, get on down the road, and again, weapons Wednesday. Face plasma rifle for the Loplange, Z-9, we need to copy, possible shotgun, and a whole lot of other goodies we're going to need to put in. And new, even though pretty much almost all three of those weapons. And you might recall that it was the rifle that Ed, one of the guys, brought up comment in one of the side medias that will mark. One of the guys he knows, they used the AR-180 over there in Ireland, not the AR-10 or the AR-15. Now that is true that the AR-180 was there. That is absolutely true. In fact, we've got to remember that the AR-180, which Stoner wanted to and of course its military designation was the M-18. The AR180, as you know, was the M18. Now, the M18 did not go into general service, but Stoner developed the AR180 slash M18 as the original infantry battle rifle, not the AR15 that you all know, slash the M16 rifle. The AR180 was a mini-FAL in many ways, FN FAL. It had many features that were from another one of Stoner's designs, which the AR, AR180 was. And, uh, Stoneham being, uh, the, the Kalishnikov of America, there's a way to describe it, where, again, Kalishnikov would be the stoner, who are very, very successful than anybody else, and, you know, depending on what the flavor of the day is, and what, you know, whether or not somebody wants to sell steel or aluminum, determined by Mr. Johnson and Mr. McNamara, as majority stockholder, that aluminum for, you know, the pitiful mount they had to pay for it. It was, when it was built, though, in the United States, Japan and in fact all three of the manufacturers were available in the United States. However, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that certain people who are well to do in certain parts of the country bought up most all of the AR180 inventory, guys. How do I know it? I've seen the arsenals. And a big chunk of them are all laying in one place here or one place there because purchasing agents went out, bought them that they could. dragged them all back to where they needed to be and they were stacked rack-cleaned and they have armors that maintain them. Now the Air-180, in order for it to fit the personal market and to fit the market in general, was an Air-15 type magazine as far as the body goes but the magazine release was in a different location intentionally. Now Stoner originally did not want that to happen but that was poised to departments by the FAS, you know, again the Shysters and the regime and so The AR180's mag is different in the release catch in where it's located and the type. It's the only significant difference. However, you can intermarry these in the newer AR180, the brand new model AR180 that's out there. The magazine release is identical in location to the standard AR15M16 family rifles. So in the new AR180s that are out, those are completely integrated with the standard ARs in the field and magazines will interchange. Throw me a mag and I do can throw me one for the new AR-180 and it works. Now the IRA did have AR tents. They were captured. They were actually in the inventory of stuff they found in the field when they were going after IRA caches around different parts of the provinces, different states. point out that they also found the Air 15 slash M16s. They did find any number of weapons. They came from the NATO countries or came from South America and the United States. Many different weapons acquired however they could acquire them. Guys, when you're a guerrilla force, you use everything. Whatever you can get your hands on in the FNF and configuration and it was used. Not as many of them, but they were there. So again, it's not that the others weren't, it's that they were in limited numbers, but the AR-10 is the .308 battle rifle configured platform and it works very well. Originally, the AR-Molite originally promoted it and that's what we would have had originally, would have been a .308 AR-10 instead of the M16 as you guys knew it and grew up with it in the military. If you want to, do a search, you'll see all the original videos done by the the Donut of Destruction, the DoD, and Stoner promoting the AR-10 in its confino-original configuration. All in Technicolor, showing you the belt, and remember I've told you about this before, where we got the idea for, in other words, why reinvent the wheel? Somebody else already figured it out. Where the belt-feed tubular receive, it's for the AR-10, guys. All we had to do was scale it up from again, a main battle rifle cartridge, scale that design up to .50 cal. Okay, see, that makes sense. Now, you'll see videos, and you can go to YouTube, you'll find a video showing how a backpack feed system could be built and a belt feed system for the standard AR-10. could be integrated but also shucked and left behind in favor of using the standard magazine well and standard mags. Not a bad feature, not a bad idea. People say we didn't adopt it. As it is, again, the AR-180 slash the M18 is the weapon that you'll see that a lot of the IRA grabbed. They acquired those from the British military. Again, you might recall back in the 90s a very small number of the Irish Constabulary Air 180s and also a number of the British police AR-180s were sold into surplus. Now they came in two configurations. One with of course the thumb hole grip, the whole nine yards, not because they were trying to restrict the, you know, conform to the system here guys. It was built that just like the Dragonov sniper rifle had the Skeleti stock, the thumb hole system, oh the Air 180s. in British configuration by Sterling had a similar stock. A number of those came in. Of course, they commanded a good price when they came in. And now as a collector's item, they command a stupid price. As in, oh my god, I can buy a lot of ARs for that. And it's true. You couldn't say go out and buy AR-180s in the original configuration if they're demanding collector's price. It's not that they are good weapons. In this day and age, fighting arms the AR-15 still makes sense. There, did I satisfy all of our air aficionados? Guys, I'll carry an AR-15 at heartbeat. Go ahead, call me. Is there a rifle out there that shoots both pistol and rifle ammunition? Well, the AR-15, as we've said, it's a clunker. It's a piece of junk, but it's a neat piece of junk. Remember, you can drop that upper receiver and put a 9mm or a .45 caliber AR upper on it and use Uzi bags all day. There's a spacer for the system. The Colt was a Colt Carbine. Commando Carbine was a 9mm using Uzi mags. And what they do is use a forward spacer. Now where that came from, that was not a design that came from Colt. Originally, a bunch of guys using all the junk stuff laying around built their own versions of that rifle design. Colt eventually picked it up and they refined it and that's where the Colt Commando came from. What about those smooth bore brownies? I know they're old, but I know they should both be the same. You can put 45 and rifle ammunition in the same receiver, I think. Smooth bore brownie. That's what I heard on the radio the other day on some channel. I heard them talking about a smooth bore barrel brownie. And the thing shoots both pistol and rifle ammo. Oh, yeah, okay. Well, there could be, just like you're seeing these judge pistols, it'll do 45 long-hold. They'll do 45 pistol ammo and they'll do shotgun shells. There were a number of weapons early on, typically single shot though. Or again, what we're seeing now is a comeback towards the wheel gun, the massive. I've noticed nobody's really had any, played a game with these, you know, because they're the classic Dirty Harry looking gun. You know, like the judge to me. I mean, it's a beast. Years ago, before that, remember you had the revolving 4570 Hemerloch rifles that were basically the size of a Springfield muzzleloader or a trap door Springfield rifle, but they actually had a cylinder type, you know, 4570 cylinder or 5070 cylinder, and they worked like a revolver. Now those could use a shorter case and still perform the same way, again because they were black powder. Now the advantage of using 45 long colt in 410 for instance is 45 long colt is not typically a magnum charge. It's kept at a standard velocity and standard pressures because the majority of the cartridges are expected to be used in peacemaker models. You know the old 45 long colt peacemaker colts and a lot of those are antiques now. They're good guns but you don't want to beat them up. So the factory load in 45 long colt typically is just that. It's the old factory load. However, you could load a 45 long colt up to be a dirty hairy Magnum cartridge all day. I mean you could build it just like a 45 mag if you wanted. If you have a Black Hawk in 45 long colt you could load that up. Right, same specs as 44 auto, you know 44 mag or 45. Again, like I said, the one cool thing about the AR is with one lower receiver, and that was Stoner's objective, is you could make so many things out of the weapon. The big thing is, you've got to watch this. Barrel 5 does not gain anything with a longer barrel. In fact, you're pressing it to do 16 and 1 by 2 inches. You don't really want to go much longer than that, but you can build, and in fact, the commando carbines in 45 ACP. that look like a Thompson. They were done in 45 and they performed well. I sold a lot of those. And a lot of guys still have them. In fact, they run like a singer sewing machine as long as you keep them clean. The big thing is they're clean sensitive. The Thompson Auto Ordnance 45s, those have a long barrel, but they work better. See, 45 ACP works better than about an 11 inch barrel. That's about the optimal barrel for the 45 ACP round. Otherwise, you're not really gaining anything and in fact if you make the barrel much longer, which you have to conform to legal length, you can actually lose a little performance. There's a negative drag issue because again it's not a real high velocity round. Now a 9mm, you can go a longer barrel and you've got plenty of guts there because it's a higher velocity or lighter bullet. It'll go down range. It'll do what it's supposed to do. Peppier submachine gun, the Peppier round does the same thing. However, all these pistols were designed again with a shorter barrel, typically anywhere from as little as 9 to as long as 12 inches. Typically not much longer. And they were again designed to be light guns to begin with. They weren't designed to be reaching out to the 500 yard mark. You could golf ball stuff in. But really, they fit the same niche as the carbine, about 200 to 300 yards. And even that was considered, yeah, you don't really, the submachine gun's purpose was close. So that's where the purpose was. The problem is, first of all, you've got to be able to integrate. There were a number of cartridges that are obsolete. And when I say obsolete, they really are because trying to find them, they're all collector's items. A lot of cartridges that were developed in the early, the smokeless powder, there were several where they tried to do integrated cartridge programs like that where they could use multiple cartridges. Space Age, the steam hero, where they wanted a weapon to do more, they wanted to be able to do more with it with one One thing does it and eventually would have been kind of like one dog said back in the other direction. We went to a number of different loads based upon the needs in the toolbox. We already had 100 years earlier before the M16 round, we already had a cartridge that did that, 6mm lead. Before we had the 9mm, we already had 38 auto. and 38 Auto has the exact same performance as 9mm. We tried it, a lot of guys got killed because of it and we dropped it and went back to 45 ACP. But because of that, it's kind of like apples and oranges because they wanted to go down with a pistol towards .30 caliber and stay at about .30 caliber with a lot of the rifle rounds. Now an example of this is pre-World War II French weapons. There's a number of weapons that have disappeared into obscurity that were leaning in that direction and actually where the rifle cartridge sizes were coming down from one direction and the pistol calibers were leveling out in those hyper-ballistic loads. The Tokarev cartridge is actually a Magnum cartridge, for instance, 30 caliber Tokarev, comparably in performance with 30 caliber carbine. Now, 30 caliber carbine, a straight case, 30 caliber. pistol type bullet. Remember, a chamber is from the throat of the case and the sitting of the bullet. The case itself is not as critical an issue, but because it's a straight case, you better get it right every time. However, again, there's no one single round or way that you can mate up all of them like that, except for the AR-15, where if you can find a mag that fits in that magazine well, you can probably adapt it to the AR. And that's what guys are asking. I would personally, if you wanted, again, we've talked about this many times, if you wanted a diverse number of calibers and you only have so much space and you wanted to confine or restrict the space because you want to store guns somewhere, if you were looking at the idea, no matter what we run into I could have ammo for it, then the AR-15 does make sense in that respect. Because the AK-74 round will fit right into the AR mag. The 7.62x39 will fit right into the AR-15 mag. Obviously, the M16 round works, and there's several other innovations or other cartridges that are out there. So if you had like a black 5.45x39 upper, 7.62x39 upper, and the standard AR-15 upper, whatever flavor you chose, you cover pretty much anything you're going to steal off the battlefield. The only consideration is there's a new Chinese AK round and it's like we've been saying, it's not really being seen outside of the Chinese military. I don't know if it'll catch on because we're getting towards a war. Obviously, we're going to be shooting each other big time somewhere. A new cartridge is not going to be a happy camper thing on the battlefield. The example is what you're already, like I said, what you're already seeing. Look at the diverse number of weapons that are in Syria or in the Ukraine. And that's the future battlefield. Contruder everybody thinks like you see in all these CG movies where every gun is exactly the same. If you look in every one of those lineups of units that are out there and what weapons they have, it's a pretty broad potpourri. Hell, in the latest pictures from the Ukraine showing some of the militia that are on the eastern Ukraine side, some of those guys are carrying G3 assault rifles. Some of them even have some M16s they've captured from wherever. So they've got every stinking gun in the inventory plus all their original Warsaw Pact weapons. And that's more realistically what we're going to see. So diversification is a good thing in your inventory. You should be. I've argued this for years. If we are diversified, we won't run out in a battlefield situation. If we all committed to just one caliber, which there are people arguing that years ago, my argument against that was, yeah, and then all they do is cut off one caliber and you're all screwed. One chambering, you know, one type. They already did this to South America. All the characters down in Columbia had to have an AK. Gotta have an AK. Gotta have an AK. Well, originally they had FN FALs, HK-91s, you know, G3s. They had, you know, one carbine, they had garands, and they had a pretty diverse number of weapons. But the AK was the symbol of prestige, which was all BS. They all bought into that garbage. And well, it's a good weapon, it's a great weapon, but when everybody's carrying it, you all need the same ammo. And so what happened is no discipline on the trigger, and guess what the Chinese did? They cut off their supply. I'd sure like to be a civilian in Ukraine right now, just following the action. I would dive in, collect all I can get, then ship it all back to you. ship it all back to the US. There's going to be so much neat stuff in the field out there where people are laying dead with a unit. Yeah, but they're using it. You see, that's the problem. If you think about it, if you'd be dragging that away yourself, you won't be shipping it out. You can't afford to. Now, here's the thing. If you had something that was really orphaned and things got more peaceful, then you would start to market stuff. But that's not going to happen for a while. If it holds a cartridge and if it will put a bullet downrange, It's either going to be used by your primary troops, your second line support troops, or your auxiliaries. But you're not going to be able to put anything away. You can't throw anything away. You can't sell anything. You might round up some really oddball stuff that can be marketed, but that's about it. It would have to be really like rare antique. And the only reason you do it is, like I said, if I ran into stuff where somebody's in a yard sale and they have a whole bunch of stuff they're getting rid of, You might want to buy it because you can get it for a good price and you can dump it for twice what you paid for it and you can buy twice as much stuff that you want. See, that's the only consideration. Anything really rare and antique. But remember, see number one, getting it to the US is a bugger. And going through all the paperwork and BS isn't worth it. I mean, the thing about there is exotic automatic weapons that are showing up there. I guarantee that there's a bunch of check stuff. I've told everybody this for years. The checks made some phenomenal weapons. Their weapons work. I don't care how intricate they are. The Czechs made great weapons, but they priced themselves out of the market in the render revolution industry because their weapons were of such high quality. Well before World War II, the fabricated, you know, the fake country of Czech goes Slovakia. They were competing with Poland, Germany, Russia, Hungary, all these other countries for the world market for weapons and machine equipment. And they were just expensive. They made beautiful weapons. In fact, with phenomenal steps forward beyond anything the Russians or the Germans did, but nobody, because they were so expensive and they were fairly intricate, they were priced out of the market. Because I could buy an MG14 or an MG18 or an MG34 from Germany for a third less. I could buy more guns. The Czechs made a K98 that was as good as, if not better, than anything the Germans or the Poles made. In fact, their premium rifles, those Czech K98s, are tech drivers. But they were, again, a little more expensive. Some countries bought them, others bought some of them and then bought some from Poland. mostly the Model 29 from Poland and then they bought a whole pilot with Kavehir 98s from World War I or they bought brand new K98s from the Germans during the pre-war years and that's what helped to build up Germany's war machine because they were practicing what they were going to be preaching. But the Czech stuff is showing up. If you look in these pictures, the Czech, because the Czechs are the United States. Because Czechoslovakia is a nation state built everything through and after the Cold War that everybody else does and they built it well. They're doing something under the radar that they don't want anybody to really pay attention to. Look at those Czechs. Look at those Poles. Look at the Slovaks. Don't worry about the Slovaks. Don't look at them. But they're doing something. And again, that's the weapons that are showing up for the odd men out. But you couldn't bring them into the US because they're all pre-World War II, they're all class 3 weapons and they're all illegal. So you can't get them here, you see. Now here's the kicker, but you can buy them over there. See, that's like Saddam Hussein. I'm gonna go back and remind everybody of this. You know, it didn't make any difference if you're a Shiite, Shia, Christian, or any of the oddball like the Kurds. You know the Kurds, even though the Kurds hated Saddam. And Saddam supposedly hated the Kurds, right? Which is all both BS. because there were two whole divisions of Kurdish military in our, in Saddam Hussein's army. Okay? So all the propaganda and all the BS we were fed here was a crock. Anybody in Saddam Hussein's Iraq could own any machine gun that existed. Can you as an American? It didn't make any difference if you were a Shiite, Shia, Christian, Kurd or whatever. You could go into a gun shop in Saddam Hussein's Iraq and buy a belt-fed machine gun. Can you do that here? So you tell me who was baffled with BS. I think it was the most disgusting part about it. Remember that after good old Wirigay Bush when we finally did invade Iraq? You know initially guys, everybody was allowed to keep one AK and one SKS. And guys, they didn't sell anybody semi-automatic AKs only in Iraq. Remember that? When you automated in Iraq, it had all the clacks on it. It went clack-clack. Okay? When you bought an HK over there, you bought an HK that had semi three round and four auto. Anybody could own one. Oh by the way, you didn't have to wait to be an adult to own one either. If you were 14 years old, if you had the money and you worked your arse off, you could go in and buy a belt fed machine gun in Iraq as a kid. Think about that one too. All this communist BS that they plugged in in the US, we shouldn't be proud of at all. We ought to be hanging our heads in shame. The Gun Control Act of 1968 needs to be abolished completely. And that's what everybody should be talking about, instead of licking somebody else's hind end and compromising and giving away our rights. Well, these fancy gun TV shows, you know, the guy owns the gun shop, you know, it's just like a reality show and you know every week he shows some new gun and he's always building some kind of a built-fed machine gun or something. How the hell is he doing it? Well, because he's a manufacturer, he's a class manufacturer and he's got all the papers for it, but there again, he's still very limited, number one. Any of the antique firearms have been restricted. Which, by the way, here's something that is, and it is an historical fact. Now, think about this. How many movies have you seen where some guy has a machine gun and he just machine guns everybody up and it was a gun that he had registered, right? Or they registered this or whatever and it was a full auto weapon, right? Here's the thing there are only two incidents of NFA weapons being used in the commission of a crime in the whole history of the NFA weapons since 1933. Did you know that? In other words like when you see Charlton Heston had you see Charlton Heston's arsenal? Yep. Did you see how many 50 calibers Charlton Heston privately owned? Yeah, all shit. Oh, yes. He did borders machine guns and they all work. They didn't want they weren't demilitarized You can walk up and pull them off the shelf and they went clack, clack, boom, boom. Now consider this. Of all of those years from 1933 to present, the two NFA incidents that took place. Now an NFA weapon is a Class III or it could be a Class II weapon or like you said, a short-barrel shotgun. Which is papered like Don's always said, that's only a $10 tax. That's what they tried to kill Randy Weaver for was $20 worth of tax because it wasn't a machine gun guys, it was a short barrel shotgun. So it was even more of an insult. I have no respect for these pieces of trash across the board, but consider this. Those two incidents where those registered machine guns were used in a crime or an accident were both cops. The only two NFA hints, in other words, think about the possibility. Do you know how, how, what that tells you? All these people that registered all these machine guns, you see all these movies, HE HAS MACHINE GUNS! IT'S HORRIBLE! THERE'S ALL THE MOVIES, THE MACHINE GUNS ARE GOING OFF HERE! Guys, not once has an NFA weapon been used by a regular American in a crime. Not once! But if you watch the B.S. and Hollywood, you'd swear to God that there were no clear devices, and every round, I mean machine gun this, and it was all these, and these are all these weapons we let the peasants have. Well, most of those people, even before all this garbage, were the latest band, which by the way Ronald Reagan was part of that. And it wasn't Reagan that pushed that, it was George Herbert Walker Bush. Yeah, they're watching two of the Al Pacino movies. They're watching two of the Al Pacino movies. Well, my point is, is that, again, most everything is a stupid price only because it's artificial. In other words, number one, well, first of all, the tax isn't artificial. Here's the thing. I mean, most Americans can handle a one-time, $200 tax nowadays, even with the economy in the toilet, right? And one of the reasons because the tax, the level of taxation has been fixed because the gun, not because of the gun contract of 1933 being thrown out, but because it was part of the War Powers Act scam. And nobody wants to talk about that. Because the War Powers Act was frozen in 1938, 1939, so they could get us to kill for them and go rah, rah, rah across the planet. All of a sudden we needed guns. You know what I mean? Well, what happened is under the War Powers Act, they never backed down on the War Powers Act. They froze it. And that's why all of these taxes are frozen. Does everybody understand that? That's why the $200 tax stamp didn't get translated out to, well, it should be a $5,000 tax stamp. Instead, it's still a $200 tax debt because under the federal regulations based upon the restrictions of the War Powers Act, which was a declaration of war against you and me and all of us peasants against America, remember the corporate government of the United States with the War Powers Act declared war on us. We weren't declared as war booty, but we aren't supposed to figure this out. Well, if you look at all the things that have to do with the corporate police state, I don't care if it's the prison system or whatever. All of those wages for the prison system are based on the freezing of the indentured servitude process of the War Powers Act. It's why they can't change or have not tried to change that $200 tax. Otherwise they would have transmuted it or translated it to modern exchange, but they haven't, have they? So here's the thing, for $200 you could own any weapon that's an NFA type class 3 weapon right now if it was available. So what did they do? Through regulation they restricted access to more of them. In other words, what George Herbert Walker and Bush did after, because remember Reagan did not do the class 3 signing until after the assassination attempt. And the assassination attempt, remember, was done with revolvers. So it had nothing to do with machine guns. Remember that? The only machine guns you saw in the pictures of the assassination attempt of Ronald Reagan by the government, by George Bush, was the guy with the oozy trying to get the stock to work that he couldn't get to work right. Remember that? He kept trying to slap the back of the stock, trying to get it down and couldn't get it down and couldn't get it down. He was fumbling with that to the point where he totally failed to do his job. Which is something about distraction and training we've told everybody about before. It should be automatic. But if you don't practice, you fumble with it. And there's an example you can see in a video. Watch the video of the assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan. Watch the guy with the Uzi. You see what I mean? Prior proper planning prevents good sport performance. Practice, practice, practice. But when you need to do it, you won't get it done right. And there's an embarrassment on national television right there. Okay, now pass that. Remember that once the assassination attempt took place, George Herbert Walker Bush was pulling all the strings in. The second term of Ronald Reagan was by the time they were done killing off all or getting rid of all of Reagan's men. It was a Bush administration and that's who pushed that restriction on Class III weapons. It was Bush, that parasite Neoscum. But what that did is immediately drove up the price also of every class 3 weapon out there. Weapons that should have been $125 apiece that are a drug on the market outside the US like Thompson's. Thompson's are all over the place in South America or used to be. And when they did that in the 80s, a lot of these class 3 weapons would have come back in the country and you'd have paid less for the gun than you did for the tax. But by doing this, they drove the market up. So now all of a sudden, here's this weapon that should cost $125. What did they just say that the machine guns, they got a bunch of Tomsens that were in the news here a little while back, that each one of those guns is worth $20,000 apiece because they're auto-ordinates guns? Good Lord. Well, but think about it. Now, let me give you an example of this BS in our lifetime just a few years ago. Well, a decade ago now. Do you know what you used to pay for llamas, guys, in the United States? You can buy a llama all day for $60 to $70 to $90 just like buying a goat, right? But all of a sudden what they did, oh, we're depleting the herds of South America because Americans are buying the llamas. Anybody remember this? Well, I do because a friend of ours was raising llamas and training 4-H girls to use llamas to train them for back animals, okay? Well, you could buy a llama before they banned the import. for $60 all day. What color do you want? You want long hair, short hair, long neck, short neck. You want an alpaca? Alpacas were running $45 a piece. Well, all of a sudden they banned the import. Breeding llama, money, thousands. Everybody got caught flat-footed because they thought, well, we'll get more llamas from, you know, or South America. Now, you know what? They weren't short llamas in South America. That was only Croc-a-B-S. What they did is they drove up the market and they didn't warn anybody so what happened is all of a sudden a whole lot of people made big bucks selling off llamas because, oh that was a $20,000 breeding female. And we watched that as it happened guys, the very same critter you could have bought for a well-breedered female, a young one would be about $200-300. Because you know, again, that's a lot of little llamas there if you keep her up, as long as you keep her alive. And so all of a sudden it was a $20,000 llama. Oh, you should have bought that car a few weeks ago, shouldn't you, right? You should have bought that llama. Oh, is it Impala? No, it's a llama. But if you were in the right place and you were selling llamas, oh, they made a whole big market out of that, guys. They ricked in money hand over fist. It was a speculation thing. You know, llamas are going to be worth 20, oh, $40,000 pretty soon. And a lot of people, for a short time, the market stayed up there in that range. And then progressively it ratcheted back down, and llamas are now kind of back down where they belong, because you see, after a while, if you keep breeding llamas, then you've got lots of llamas in the United States. Well, you don't do that with machine guns, because you see, there's only so many consents, there's only so many BARs. Everything that's being used, it's a battlefield implement, it's getting shot the snot out of. Countries are wearing them out, things get broken down. Now, a good example, I used to buy armored vehicles. You know, a driver, I've talked about this for a long time. Guys, we paid $475 for a Bren gun carrier. You know what they're going for right now? Right now, today, go out and look at the price. $20,000, $22,000, $27,000, $28,000. Guys, we're buying running. Off the chocks, grade B vehicles for $475 a piece. I helped drag the last one over the Ambassador Bridge here in Detroit. We didn't pay any taxes on it at all. We paid $475 for that vehicle when we brought it back from Canada. And that same vehicle, in fact, here's another one, Farad Armoured Cars. Go look and put a Farad Armoured Car runs right now what they want for it. Now how many of you remember going down to Knob Creek and there would be three or four Fahrenheit armored cars fully armed, armored up, ready to roll kids. Start them up, drive them around there, around Knob Creek if you wanted to test them out. And the guys would sell them to you for $1600 a piece all day. $1600 running and ready to roll up on the trailer and take home or because they're street legal, you could drive it home. But what did they do? Well, originally these things are all over the place, all over the planet, guys. And if you're willing to pay the shipping, and the shipping ain't much for surface freight, when it's a ship, you could have the thing brought in here for a cost you about. Well, back, those were running, the ferrets from the Rent-A-Revolution companies were running, my price was about $800, shipping was about $800. It cost the same price to ship it as it did to buy it. And those vehicles were brand new, rebuilt, by Rolls Royce in England. They had over 2,000 of those available. They had just gone through the factory reproduction line. They had completely stripped them, cleaned them out inside and out. And for $1,600 you get yourself a brand new armored car, a real armored car. Go take a look at what a ferret looks like. Part two, $1,200. And that, if you were in another country other than the slave America, for $1,200 guys you got a cannon, two machine guns, the night vision, All the goodies on board to include the infrared for $1,200 American. And that means you could step into the driver's seat, turn the ignition over, and she ran like a rape tape for $1,200. And deliver it anywhere in the world and get it with all the guns on board except in peasant slave America. And of the sea and the home of the slave. Crack that whip. and nobody cared. Well, by the way, it was a police state! Bush and I was ruthless! Ah, I guarantee if you probably crossed the town, he was ruthless. But then again, uh, wasn't George Bush kind of, you know, evil and wicked? See, think about it. It's like I said, uh, you can buy a main battle tank for $3,000 from Communist China. The main gun work, they'd sell you so many rounds of ammunition with it. You got the night vision on board, you got the squad gun, the roof gun, the dashika on the roof, and you got the coaxial gun in the turret for $3,000 American guys. Problem is we figured well since we couldn't get it with the gun, you could if you had the right papers we didn't want to mess with that. So if you wanted a dewotted gun and you know like got a big tank, you could get a tank for $3,000 and you could jump into the driver's station, hit the switch, runt, start the diesel up and drive her down the road 15 seconds later. Well, we wait 30 seconds to a minute for it to warm up. You put her in gear and you take her on down the road and she'd drive over cars. $3,000 American. cost you $1,200 American to ship it into the US. What do you think about that? $5,200 for a main battle tank? Yeah, all day. Well, we fought a real impressive war in Desert Dust 1 because we spent a half a million dollars for a missile to knock out a $3,000 tank. Do you feel impressed now? Are you bragging? I don't know why. You look at it from an economic standpoint, I don't think we did any win-win there. We just got our pockets raped and our wallets ripped off. by a bunch of skanks who, of course, well, started the garbage from the first place with an ally. So anyway, again, in perspective, what we do get, the semi-autolecines, we'll go back to this. There's some really cool stuff out there. The AR-15, in its semi-autonatic mode, is a fine rifle, and of course, built for the slaves in America. We have a lot of good slave rifles that we've built that are semi-auto only because slaves, you know, have to be restricted. And if you're going to say, guys, 20 inch gun or a 22 inch AR first, we can always think about it this way, because something you driver you were just talking about a minute ago, you're going to be making corpses on the other side. If you want a short bell rifle, there's going to be piles of them. You're going to find out you don't like it. You're going to find out it's like, well, man, I'm used to this 20 inch gun and I can do everything that little shorty can do and I don't have to burn in the spray ammunition to get it done. In other words, you get really good with what you got and you'll find out you don't necessarily want those other toys the other kids have, especially when you get really good. When you realize your life depends on it, you better get really good. All of you better start thinking really good. In other words, tighten that posture up, tighten those muscles up, make that three-point control with that rifle. Make sure that you settle your skeletal structure on itself. All those important things need to be done to ensure that you put that bullet where it needs to go. That's really what everybody needs to be focusing on. You need more time on the range looking at accuracy. And if you can't get on the range, buy an Airsoft. Then you can make any place the range. Get an Airsoft gun. And by the way, if you're really worried because, well, Mark, I've got to be serious, well, then go buy a serious Airsoft rifle. You could buy airsoft weapons that by God even laying right there on the table 99% of the people would swear to God they've got a regular weapon laying there guys. Look at these steel AKs and these aluminum ARs that are being built that are airsoft. In fact I'd be throwing them at troops if I was short weapons. I'd have guys carrying them simply because you can't tell at a distance. If you're trying to impress the bad guys and you're desperately short, I'd put everything out there including other stuff that wasn't even made of metal just to make sure that the bad guys felt bad. But if you've got airsoft, oh hell yes, that'd have to be you. It's just because again, those go to the rear. Remember that when we fought at Lexington, the men in the back did not have guns, guys. We were short weapons. Now I still don't understand why they didn't make something out of wood, seriously. Better to have something to look like a weapon than and especially if it was the age of wood carving So making something that from a distance you couldn't tell the difference Would have been a better choice than for somebody to stand there with no fire on it. Know what I mean? Just because everybody's always impressed by those regiments and numbers. So impress them a little more Put a sharp pointy stick on the end of it make everybody feel better at least that way you know Hey, you might be able to poke them before you do it Anyway, again, with regard to the ARs, right now there's a few buys, but I'm not seeing a whole lot come down that far on mags. There are quantity prices available, and I would recommend if you've got the AR, as we've said, buy as many mags as you can right now and then tactically disperse them. That's the big advantage of being able to purchase in quantity right now. The other thing is, again, if you're going to be building up, start with a 20-inch gun, and then if you want to build, if you think your teeth are aching for a 16-inch, go buy an upper that's a 16-inch. They're all over the place. They're a drug in the market. It's harder to get a 20-inch barrel weapon than it is to find a 16.5. What does that tell you? Now granted, they've been pushing the 16-5s. Why? There's less material built into the weapon, so it's cheaper. That's right. So if you were building stuff, wouldn't you want to charge the same price but have less material tied up? Well, of course you would. And that's really the only reason that 16.5 gun is being pushed. Just think about it. It's cheaper and I can charge still top dollar, hell, I can charge $3,000, $4,000 for less gun, which is what some people do. And again, they're well built. If you give X1 arms, people that are building these things really do know what they're doing. Do we have to give them credit for that? But from my perspective, I do not want equity and neither do you. You want superiority. You want to reach farther, you want to hit them harder, and now since everybody's yapping about the robotoids and the nematodes and the hemorrhoids, then you better be ready for and be willing to put bigger bullets down range. I would go so far as to remind everybody, remember the original Moddy Griffin and the original Zussman Ackerman Mark Wands, the M1s, guys, the The Monte Griffin was built as a bullpup single shot and it's reasonable weight and reasonable price to build and it still would be your best choice to at least have a 50 out there. If you're all angsting about those robotoids then put a half inch AP round on there, high end end like on that leg joint or right into the motor section areas. That's where you knock them down. I don't care if they can claim it can do 28 miles an hour. When it becomes a biped, studding most of the front end into the ground, it's not going anywhere. Or if you take two legs off on one side or take and just first chunk out one, she's not doing 28 miles an hour anymore. And they don't get to eject body parts. Contrary to the CG computer graphics BS, Once chunky, wonky stuff starts building up, kinetic energy really takes hold and flopping and flopping and flopping kind of ruins that whole coordination thing. Just something to think about. Just like talking about knocking down a helicopter. More damage you do, more accumulated damage you do, worse off that helicopter is. And dropping out of the sky is not that pilot's first ambition on the planet. You get madrift. You don't want to scud into the earth at 120 knots. and with applied energy and a bunch of rotors over top of it because those rotors are kind of embarrassing. They're not friendly to anybody, especially not to that hub that you call a helicopter that's seen all those rotors are flying on top of. A lot of, again, cumulative damage, but heavier damage. Here's another consideration, building the Mardi Grifen single shot in something like OTT-6. 4 in, for instance, 300 win mag. One of our friends was talking about, and a lot of guys have done it, taking 300 win mag and putting the M2 .30 caliber AP round on that. Now as a lightweight single shot bolt action, the Mottie Griffin design scaled down would be much lighter. And while I wouldn't lighten it a whole lot, there are things that could be done that could reduce the silhouette of the weapon a little bit. Not much. And decent optics or an iron sight could be put on it in such a way that that weapon would be a gun that could be carried for those times when you're worried about those cheetah toys, doggatoys, and hemorrhoids, and nematodes, and whatever else is out there. Now that works. Plus, it's kind of nice to use a body armored people anyway, especially when you hit them in the crotch. Get them in the throat, take your pick, I don't care, but you better be accurate enough to be putting bullets like that down range. Because everybody yaps about, oh, they got this, they got well good, then you better figure out how to hunt. And that means that you better practice at killing things the way they need to be killed. It's just like when you're hunting game. You don't aim for the crotch on your deer, do you? I mean, we have to with body armor, but you place a shot where you need to that will do the most damage based upon what you can hit. So you go for that shoulder buster where you knock out the shoulder, you belong, it pulls out the heart, and the animal typically will die in reasonable distance. Spine shot, I know even as I say that, Mark. Fantastic. You place the bullet that well. Shouldn't that be your agenda when you're having to fight for your life to save your liberty? You better be thinking the same way with regard to how you train on these biped targets. Tittatoids and the robotoids and the... Don't forget, there are the dogatoids. You got the dog out there, which is nothing more than again a mule. Those are mule systems, guys. Treat them accordingly. Well, it's a quad-ped. What do you need to do? What do you need to do to make the quad-ped not work? What do you need to do to make the biped not work? See, unless they go fully tracked and even there, then what do you do to knock out a truck? When they go to wheels, then what do you do to knock out something with wheels? It's a matter of big game hunting. This is the ultimate big game hunting experience. How are you going to deal with it? Don't piss and moan to me about it, about the fact that they've got what they've got. It all dies just like anything else. You just got to decide what tool in the toolbox you need to get the job done. And that should be your priority. Wow, looks like I made a bigger weapon with a larger magazine, or at least a big magazine, so I can repeat, repeat, repeat. And between my buddies and me, and we repeat, then we'll go find the operators, and like I said, we will treat them with extreme, shall we say, prejudice. We will be very mean to them. They will wish to God they were never born. Right? That's the attitude. that, keep that too hard, embrace that, and again, wrap your mind around that idea. That's what you need to be thinking about, not just panty ways to BS from all these other broadcasters. A lot of the other characters are out there, and I ain't talking about ours, I'm talking about the Weezers. That's what the other side will be screaming when the time comes. Oh my goodness. Yeah, we're here. We've come to visit you and we don't plan on leaving until we get rid of you. Repeat that over and over again. Anyway, we got a lot of cool things to do. In the meantime, we should be hearing the music and we've got Craig from Forbidden Ops. Come up. God bless the Republic. That's the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire's on a run. We're on a mark. Stay tuned for Radio Here on LTR. We'll be back at 8 o'clock. Down to myself. Evening Intel report. Bye-bye. It's the tall old tree and the strong old tree.
