A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me he said, We've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. 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 to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave is this still the land of the free? Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report I'm our quirky One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories West, Central, East, and South. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, Indiana Freedom Talk Radio.com, we're on AM&FM microstations, CB base stations, and Ultra Net Technologies. east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Hallmark Network from the top of Maine to the bottom of Florida. From the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico. Headed Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, big chunk of Nebraska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both the third, the fifth, the pit, and the 13 sisters on the left side of the state over there in Wyoming. Kind of like three states. There's three separate divisions going on. Anyway, Colorado, good work. I understand you guys will be solidifying the militia alliance going on right now. There will be another couple of different state or organizational meetings with different groups, different elements, sizes, big and small. Keep on the path. It takes time, guys. No matter what you do, you just got to stay focused. It's not a hobby. It's a lifestyle. We've got to make sure we bring American lifestyle back into play the way it traditionally has been, our heritage. Anyway, waving the left coast where we have the great state of Jefferson, we turn back to the east sweep across the plains over the... whoa! Mississippi is really going strong. Leaping over the river there, climbing in the Smokies with the restaurant crews, grandma teams, OK teams, and the Ma Bell Gramma Consortium bring us the Golden Spike. Many hands make for light work a million Peddicoat Junction operators. The ability to continue to function when everything else is offline So for everybody out there, it is a beautiful beautiful Thursday we have had a perfect day here. The Sun has been out of course. It's didn't get that warm. It didn't melt a whole lot of anything, but it did offer, you know, whether it was an enclosure or something dark, warmed it up real good. So again, yeah, it's a winter day, but it's a medium average winter day. Good snow on the ground here. Lots of ski snow, snowmobile snow, you name it, you can run it. In fact, I'm surprised if you had a snowmobile especially. I mean, come on guys, the gas was cheaper. And even where the gas has gone up by 40 cents a gallon. Hmm wouldn't people still be out there driving around or is the economy not as strong as everybody's yeah I think we all know what's going on anyway It is the fifth. I'm pretty sure I got that right. Oh February it is the seventh year of open Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of a miracle with a K2000 and 15, Old Earth Calendar or 2015, Year of Battle. We're looking at, again, the Nevada situation out there where the Bundy Ranch is, but this has to do in general with the BLM trying to kick everybody off the public areas. This is a retribution thing by the Communists. It's what the pigs that are in the Soviet system always have done, will do, and will continue to do until they're booted right out of the country. Bealum extends comment period for a controversial management plan. It's not a management plan. It's an overlord slash control freak plan. Let's call it what it is. Anyway, it's posted up from the trenches. The Bureau of Land Management is giving the public an extra month to review its sweeping new resource management plan for Southern Nevada. But that isn't likely to satisfy those with concerns about the document. and the agency behind it. Clark County officials initially suggested the public comment period should be extended for a year, while some commissioners in Nye County seem to want nothing at all to do with the plan or the BLM, which is of course the case. Amy Lunders... The Bureau's State Prostitute slash Director for Nevada, you know, Horat Large, announced the time extension Wednesday, the comment period for the Las Vegas and pay crump field offices draft resources management plan. And environmental impact statement was set to close Friday but will now remain open until March 9th. At a special meeting January 21st, Clark County Commissioners approved a resolution requesting a month extension. The original version called for the comment period to remain open until February 5th, 2016. One day earlier, the Nye County Commission narrowly passed what it called a resolution saying no to the Bureau of Land Management. In it, the Nye County condemned the BLM, declared the resource management plan repugnant and said it threatens to cause further economic and environmental damage to the rural county. Well, that is the plan. Of course it is. This is where you have the communists seeking revenge through the bureaucracy upon the American people. The only thing that's going to fix this is a rifle round. Not yapping at them. I'm telling you that. You know what will happen? They're going to hear the blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah And while the real working people get pissed on, the shysters from overseas, the shysters from the Middle East, Python, Tel Aviv, along with the punks in trash out of Chicago and New York and Las Vegas, will cooperate with the communist Chinese to screw America even more. It's obviously in the plans. It's already been demonstrated and they showed their cards early when they played what they did last year on the Bundy Ranch. Got a lot of work to do and the first thing I would recommend is motivating people towards organization in the state of Nevada. They need to do a better job. As it is, they've done pretty well to get a lot of squads, platoons or fire teams organized. A lot of five-man, ten-man groups are in motion. That's good. That's what everybody would expect. That's what they should do. Don't screw with short barrel shotguns. You don't need explosives. Do not worry about any automatic weapons. Why? Well, number one, look at the ranges. You're better off with heavy, long-range guns. Hell, even with shotguns, you're better off with long-range tubes. I go far so far as to say, you know what? Good old goose gun, it'd be kind of handy out there to put all your number four buck or your BB into a nice pellet punch right out there at the same range you engage geese guys. That's where you want to keep the bad guys and got lots of energy at 10 gauge goose gun. Oh man, that would be a kind of nice way to put a mobile claymore in motion. And by the way, there's steel BBs, so it's just like a claymore. Remember, the goose and duck loads, the waterfowl loads have to be steel. Well, you better do some research on the claymore. Oh, it only takes a couple of squeezes with an Ithaca semi-auto and you've dumped the same number of rounds downrange. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Dudes! We just like peppered the whole area. Yeah, that's a whole idea. Closer range, not a problem. Anyway, just an idea there, but FM micro stations are the big thing right now. Mobile units. We need a series of PortaPaks that are ready to go for deployment and that is one of the projects we're working on right now, sorting, separating and itemizing. However... We still know we can have so many you know kits with the support technology and everything we need to keep running But we do need mixing boards and all the other stuff. We've got smaller work that we can do with that There's a couple of pieces of technology aren't very big not gonna be real great for sound but good enough for field use Okay, there's something to think about there the idea is to get the noise down range and into the radios guys However, it's the micro FM's We are going to have to look at a project for people to sponsor, and I'm not just talking people here with Liberty Tree Radio or with a micro effect for that matter, but a lot of people are into this whole thing about dealing with this problem. A lot of people responded to the Bundy Ranch situation, the fiasco before. Better organization is needed, but signal communications especially can be done better. We know that. We've got a radio truck out there, actually a radio trailer. We've got one other radio trailer we've built and sent down to Texas. The guys have it down there. And we need to build another one. But we actually, in fact, Captain Monahan is here right now. He's not here at the station. But he's down in this neck of the woods and we're going to be focusing on indoor work with the winter pretty heavy right now. And that includes signal communications, doing rack trailers, the whole nine yards. So we're looking for trailers, we're looking for minivans. Minivans are really fantastic for radio rigs, radio transport radio and signal communications, but also for a media rig. I would point out another thing that we can do with media trailers, and especially with media vans, is microwave signal out of the area, guys. omnidirectional broadcast and a directional broadcast out to another target collector so that we can get information out of an area to include video without worrying about having to use the cell phone towers which you will load up or shut down. Take your pick. But either way, we have to figure they're gone and we need to get out of the area of operation. This means mid-ground or high ground immediate deployment targeting outside the area of encirclement or activity to the farthest point, getting the signal out there, using YAGI, or again, microwave rebroadcast is actually the cheapest, easiest way to do it, and it's really quite simple. It's a lot easier than you think, people. The big thing is searing on the target, and with lasers, that can be made a lot easier nowadays. Oh! But Mark, it's way up there on the horizon. Yes, and we have lasers that are available that are strong enough to be used for targeting for that purpose. You know, aim for the cup. and then you get a positive. Once you get a positive, the laser at the other point where it's, you know, again, fixed or mounted at one end and the target is fixed or mounted at the other, your microwave cube, your rectangle, is to the left or right for both units, actually, with the left on one side, right on the other, and you can zero that microwave system in a matter of moments. So we take the very, very modern and the semi-modern, we combine the two, kind of low, high-tech in both directions. But in the long run, we're able to put an effective signal downrange. Now we can use lasers to do the same thing, but that's a little more costly in some ways. However, getting a signal downrange or out of the area by laser is another option, but you're looking at more energy, you're looking at a little, it's a little tougher on the system, on the equipment, because unfortunately lasers build up calories and heat. slash heat. And because of that, as we've experimented with them in the past, you have to spend more money to get the job done. We can do a point-to-point microwave dish system with small format, basically a five-inch screen microwave that would go out to the horizon, $7 for one unit, $7 for the other, and then the receiver technology at both ends, which is not a big deal. You know, so many dollars more. And then notice, I didn't say hundreds of dollars. I said dollars. Yeah, that's how stupid cheap this stuff is and in fact it can be done quickly in fact we can have racks of on hand if we just patient and collect the stuff as we go you know to include the idea that we can also enhance our target area these neat little Present satellite dishes little gray ones all those are priceless guys add that to the formula on both ends And you've got an even better signal collector, so there's all kinds of neat tricks. It can be done, but Looking at the progressive escalation, the bad guys are going to continue to pee in the pool, they want to continue to stomp, they've got to come back, they're going to create the illusion of, oh yeah, we're relating to, no they're not, they're animals. These are socialist pigs on the other side. Socialist pigs will lie, it's acceptable. There are no moral standards for the socialist pigs on the other side. Just understand that and you'll be doing just fine. We need to be staying focused on certain projects and that includes signal communications. The other is medical support and transportation. Transportation kind of overlaps with every one of these signal communications, etc., because in many cases we either have a trailer or we have a modular unit, stuff needs to be moved. The next step that we would have developed with the Bundy Ranch, fortunately everything did back off, is we were already looking at moving in and upgrading a bunch of trucks that they had in a down line there so we could create field trucks that could stay on site, they would be beaters, and we wouldn't cry about them, but they could be worked on, it would be, you know, it's possible. There's no rust out there with the vehicles in Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico guys. When they're out there they just stare at you, it's plastic that gets messed up and Needless to say, the roads are rough, so it's a suspension system that rattles until it falls apart. So those are the areas that we need to take into consideration. Also, typically with the beater trucks, transmissions, which is what was the case out there, we need to be looking for wrecks, slash vehicles we aren't going to care about, but can be brought up to spec so they can be used for combat tactical support. Okay? Just something to take into consideration, just like the radio rigs. If we're going to do the minivans, the idea is to buy something that doesn't look pretty but is mechanically sound. I don't care. Paint jobbing may be different because it's going to get repainted anyway. That's the first thing you're going to do is scrub her down, clean her up, look for any oxidation, clean that up, and then goop the live in the snot out of it with paint and give her a couple of really good coats and then a couple of tactical coats. Some good hard base coat green whatever and then whatever camo pattern you're going to go with and or you can go just with Mac grays Mac greens whatever it's purely a matter of the units personal choice and budget camouflage isn't hard to do and it's no more expensive than doing a single color paint job be quite honest anyway Then all the technology is added And as we do have a number of radios that have been donated for the third trailer, there's other stuff that's still sitting both here and another location, we can actually put either a trailer unit or a van unit together very, very quickly right now. This would include the micro FM station and probably a micro television station. The television station couldn't reach that far. But one of the advantages of a micro television station just like the micro FM is not so much even for the other people out there in the world But for your own use for rebroad casting specific online first-person Intelligence as it's being you know again affecting you know it's as it's somebody's deploying as equipment's on the road whatever is going on Once again, it can be signaled back to the micro television broadcasting unit and they can be cooperatively broadcast so everybody has an idea what's going on knows what to look for who's who in the zoo and there's no doubt everybody becomes that a first-person witness to the activity yeah i know we've got the cell phones uh... and of course at the first thing we do work we get the cell phones and the first thing they had problems with once they had a bunch people on the ground up there at the bunny ranch was what why the cell phones that's right so as it stands once again remind everybody Take the time plug everything in and Act accordingly with regard to the technology as far as learning curve one of the other things you need to do is sit down and work with the equipment This is something that doesn't happen enough park it and you don't play with it Well the idea is you've got to work it that that includes if nothing else taking the radio rigs and monitoring. Oh the broadcast. Oh, yeah Well, why are you broadcasting just because you turn on the radio doesn't mean you have to broadcast You can be listening, especially with your shortwave rigs, guys. In fact, you should be listening a lot. You should be perusing the dial up and down. You should be practicing and bringing in the signal, improving the quality of the signal, improving the sound. There are all kinds of doodads and buzz whistles and wheelie gigs on that rig. You might want to learn how to use them. So number one, use center them. Before you do all of that, probably reading a manual would be a good thing. It's cool. Reading a manual if it has one is probably a good idea. A little bit of research into what does what isn't bad either. Once you've got all that down, you need to apply it, especially when you're putting all of the technology up and online. How it works, how to get it to work, how to get it to function. So, just an idea there. I'll tell you what, oh man, I want to do this. Okay, well this is kind of cool, I missed this initially. Hey, we have as many guns in Michigan as they do in Turkey. No way! Well, we're supposed to have approximately Let's see, Michigan, we have 8,776,672 guns. And oh, wait a minute, is that true? Population is 9,883,640. So for all practical purposes, with almost every one of these states, either we have enough to arm every man, woman, and child, or we have enough to at least arm every adult twice over. and probably some of the men women children with the women children are just a children to you know depending on age and what you call a child it's really a matter of politics there anyway uh... well you know i i can't believe uh... like for instance wyoming they're saying we have five hundred and you know about five hundred thousand five hundred uh... weapons you know radio available Probably this is registration if you know how they do that guys well you think that the five hundred sixty three thousand six hundred twenty six people that live there that even the most of the children don't have a gun and at the average gun owner has at least three you think figure that one out just do some math do the metal map on that one real quick that's kind of fun in and of itself just do the metal map if all the adults have three weapons at the average hunter, but typically a hundred and twenty-two rifle, shotgun, right? And then the kids have at least a twenty-two or a four-ten, and since they like to bring them up a little younger into the fold, you know, out there, probably a thirty-out-six or at the very least like a two-forty-three, so they can do some mule deer hunting along with dad at intermediate and close range. You know what I mean? Because out there in Wyoming you shoot ridge to ridge, so that three-hundred weather be isn't that? 338 and that yeah that's six and all the other fun big guns well sure sure gonna have lots of those out there in Wyoming so I'd be willing to bet the test we we have to look at these numbers always as minimal baseline numbers for a lot of these states now some of them like you know New York well you know the rest of the state of New York is pretty civilized as far as for being armed and you know being free men but well you know California the California catered New York City is Same is true with, well, California itself. But, there again, they're pretty much hypocrites because they'll tell you about how you need to be disarmed while the people who are telling you you need to be disarmed are the ones who, of course, have lots of guns to protect from us peasants. Oppity-boojwa-the peasants. Anyway, interesting article. It's from the Trenton's Rule Report chart shows how all 50 states rank on gun ownership compared to nations around the world. Or in other words, what's our counterpart that will probably be fighting? but no we were supposed to get that way right yeah anyway the alaska and jordan well i know i have to get a whole bunch of communist up going on with shipping stuff in and out there that's the the communist the jewish mob of taken over last a pretty much completely that that's a given and the shysters of course only they deal with whatever the rest of you peasants are supposed to have it because that way they can dispatch with a little pocket pistols like alex give it to the commissar said years ago But do you think they've probably got more than 630,685 guns in Alaska? Yeah, I would think so. Yeah, yeah, I hate to tell you. Most people I've known that have been in Alaska, 20, 30, 40, 50 firearms at least, and a whole lot of other odds and ends stuff they've collected, including going out to places where stuff just got left laying around. 20 millimeter guns artillery stuff back be a World War two guys They just take the stuff and roll it out of backfield and leave it and then forget it everybody understand that and Kind of like being in Arizona. It's really weird with cold environment stuff doesn't rust as badly as you'd think especially the closer you get to the Arctic Circle It just sits there and stares at you kids. It really does It's right there waiting for you if you can find it and go ahead pick it up take it home real simple Anyway, let's see, next on the list here, well we are almost to the bottom of the hour. And for our friends out there listening, remember that we have a drawing coming up at the end of the month. Again, of course, we promised every month we would do this. We've got plenty of time right now. We did get a letter late, it's going into the next drawing, so don't worry, we didn't forget you. We got a letter that came in a little late. Pass the drawing and for that person we'll put you in the next drawing with an equal number of names in the hat. Also, again, the drawing this time around is going to be more into equipment. We're probably going to have some additional bags and utility gear. Also, complete kit. You may have one complete fleck-tarn kit. It's going to be kind of cool. It'll be fleck-tarn camouflage if everything goes well. If I can put the whole thing together, if not, we've got another big item that will be the end of the month draw. But pants, shirt, field jacket. Hat probably two or three. Oh, no at least two and then a helmet cover forgive me helmet cover Both of the types of patrol caps the M43 and the baseball these are all German military issue and Probably a complete German Web gear set in the Fleck darn pattern. So we're gonna see what you do there I haven't found a backpack that I could match up to this would be reasonable But we've got the standard backpack slash panty pack that goes with these So, whatever Flectern pack we find, I wanted to find something that was medium, that was reasonably priced. We'll see what we can do. Big size is not a problem. In fact, right now I've got a source. They've been really good about big sizes. So, see what I can do there around the difference. Out. It will be a nice little package. The other items will include a couple of different knives. The others that we have are gone. We are working on another knife pattern that is going to be part of the drawing. Of course, baseball caps. We have a bunch of those coming into the next drawing. Let's see what was the other thing, another surprise box by the way. So I want to say thank you. Our friend keeps dropping off surprise boxes. I got an idea within them, but we won't find out until they're out there in somebody's hands. So again, for everybody out there, it is the end of the month. This one will be having the drawing, but just a heads up. Things are looking pretty good there. Let's see. You know what? I think we got some ear candy lined up. I'm pretty sure that I did. Yep, and again, Santa Luca, tell you what I'm gonna do. We're almost to the bottom of the hour. Oh, no, we're passing bottom of the hour. Oh, that didn't take long. Oh, man, I'll tell you, it has been a beautiful day, but it has been kind of a busy day on and off actually to sit down for a bit and go through a whole bunch of paperwork that just came in. I want to say thank you to our guys. from West Virginia. We got the message about the meetup. Also, Freedom Palooza is coming up pretty soon. Ooh, before I go any farther, I gotta remember that because we're gonna be out there. Freedom Palooza will have Paul Topetti from Poker Face up here on the air as soon as we can. And Freedom Palooza, Freedom Palooza, Freedom Palooza, that's gonna be coming up. Hopefully we can broadcast from there. I think we're gonna be able to do that. That's the other reason we're working on getting all the radio equipment squared away. And hopefully, even there, we're going to have a microwave them up. We'll see what we can do. So for everybody out there, again, Freedom Palooza is down the road, but let's start planning for it. Okay? You find out more? Go to www.pokerface.com. www.pokerface.com. That's www.pokerface.com. All right. Let's see if we can do this. I'll bet you we can. Yes, we can. Yes, we can! Dudes. Anyway, um, got one other message here, but oh, it looks like, oh, also a cancellation. Michigan militia at large, third brigade, actually it's first company, third brigade. You guys have canceled for the O'Guma Ranges this weekend. Apparently they've got some other thing going on back home. So, again, for the Third Brigade, first company, Michigan Militia at Large, you have a cancellation for NAGA Hitchen. That means a little more space on the range will be available. I know they're overbooked anyway. But, heads up, go to your website, and you've got to use your PIN number to get into your security page there, guys. There's an explanation, but attention, attention, attention for Michigan Militia at Large. Third Brigade first company you guys will not be at camp nigga hitch him this weekend So get hold of your team leaders. I know what's going on There's a special project that apparently is prop cropped up And so they're not gonna be going to the range you guys in fact if you got any extra manpower Sounds like it's going to be some WRK and you might want to recruit additional personnel. Also additional trucks. Looks like it'll be picking up some stuff. A bunch of gifts, but it's going to require some work to move the stuff out of the buildings. So, heads up on that. Also, schedule should be normal for tomorrow, as a matter of fact. 0800 hours is when they'll be opening up most of the facilities. Camp Emmerich, Camp Emerson, New Camp Stasa, Camp Wayland North. The Ogham Aranges, where we have the change I just mentioned, Nagahitjum is open, Fox and Wolf are buried under their arse and snow, and they're open. We have the ski event this Saturday, everybody in fact is probably going to be starting to head that way tomorrow by what I understand, and that will be the five-click. cross-country skiing activity first you know through virgin area can actually be a minimal cut then they've got a prep track for the other four are clicks that's on apparently one of the old train bread train bed rah rah runs others quite a few people that are going to be participating in this cross-country switching are we getting a lot of cross-country skis the biggest thing i have not been getting as many or shoes in fact i just had a couple pairs of across-country ski shoes which are very popular a lot of the racers But we're looking for boots, the cross-country three-tap connector system. And if anybody does have any cross-country stuff, you can drop us a line, send us an email at liberty at provide.net, liberty at provide.net. That's liberty at provide.net and put cross-country skis or skis, attention skis, and I'll know what it's about. Cross-country ski operations. The other thing is building sledges or building skid sleds for transport guys Remember old sets of skis don't get rid of them take all the hardware off save that for other metalwork You never know what you might need some little widget to be able to tap into something else But use the skis to make up another sledge the newer Downhill skis are really good for this because they have a wide track front, they cut the hourglass, they're like a stretched elongated hourglass pattern with a tapering rear. And those are really good for cutting the snow, which is what they're designed to do, try to ride the snow better. Well, guess what? Those really make great cargo sledges. Not hard to do, use PVC or use metal hangers, like for conduit. and you can either glue PVC together, use schedule 80 if you can, but hey, go schedule 40, it'll work. It takes a lot to bust up a PVC pipe. And the cool thing is you can make a lightweight, easy to carry, easy to transport cargo sled. And I would make it about maybe 24 inches wide. And again, 2 thirds of the length of the ski you want to have a little back set away from the rear of the ski and give yourself about oh 12 inches to the front of the ski then the rest of that can all be sledged up the cool thing is you've got enough so that need be you can actually cargo a person out on one of these depending on how long the skis you make granted there's kiddie skis there's adult skis of different sizes So if you get a set of larger skis you can make a nice little evac ambulance slash cargo sled that is simple to use, didn't cost much of anything and if you have to throw it away who cries about it. Just something to think about. By the way, also makes a kick butt sled for going downhill. So if you want to have some fun you can make one for home too guys. How does that sound? Anyway. We're going to go a little ear candy break because Luca Zana www.zana.us and for everybody out there, remember guys, go to their webpage and take the time to get hold of the music. Support the authors. www.pokerface.com www.pokerface.com You can also go to www.lovegunsfreedom.com Lovegunsfreedom.com Hey, does that say it all? Yep, lovegunsfreedom.com And Gianluca Zena is the author here and with enough said about that, let's see if I can pop everything in and make it work right for us. more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Now we are going to get America back. This guitar, by the way, classic style, just makes you want to stop and listen for a little bit. What do you think? Anyway, again, that's www.xena.uk. stop in, say hi, and buy the music. We will have some of his CDs on hand. Again, we may offer them for sale as a way to support the program, but it might also put some of these into the drawing. That would be a good idea. As a matter of fact, we have some Robert Lloyd CDs also, and hopefully I'll be playing a little bit of that this week too. Ed might even have some in the inventory right there with the lineup. For all of you out there, Robert Lloyd is also supported Liberty Tree Radio for a very long time. He's done some fantastic music, another style. Definitely, if we take all of these great voices and great men that have stepped forward, we've got some kick butt music to fight by, kids. well i got a point something i think that this is unique because you will be all look at her style i don't know this is instrumental but it's uh... you might you get a feel for this we listen to it think about where you might might recognize this particular style with the song by the way but uh... it's only three minutes and five seconds long we actually got enough time to do this all i love that yeah you know mark terrible for stuff like this You never know. I might be able to get in here, I might not. We'll see if Mark can... I'm fumbling around with the technology while I'm making sure we don't have dead airtime in the process. Yes! I think I'm going to play The Last Ride! Now, I can picture some other... There's some imagery with this, but the feel of this is from another era, by the way, with regard to movies and production. Tell you what, before we go any further, do we have any callers? And a one, and a two, and the bubble machine continues. Well, we're going to do better than the bubble machine. Now this is instrumental. Three minutes and five seconds long. So suffer and enjoy. As a matter of fact, I don't think you really suffer. But think about what kind of image you might have. Let me put it this way. When a man with a rifle meets a man with a pistol, a man with a rifle, he will win every time. I'll leave it. No, that would be the third movie for that little cry there. Anyway, we're going to go to another little piece of air candy. Why? Because I can do it! Because this is our program. We are looking to the sunset right now out there, guys. Grab your coat and hats if you're leaving. It may have been warmer during the day, but it's going to drop down real fast because there ain't no cloud cover above. Also, it's going to be pretty bright tonight. Don't have to use any night vision technology or even any flashlights if this stays this clear We got a monster moon and it has been kicking with the solar flares the last couple of days So but you still that's the case. It's clear It's gonna be bitter take the extra gear put an extra layer on underneath you're going out something happens on the road I don't want to hear about you being a thermal casualty We're heading towards sunset even as we speak the light is disappearing of course fortunately There's lots of snow so we get lots of reflection too anyway I believe that I can squeeze this in properly. By the way, I like this piece. As soon as I heard this piece, I could picture a collage and a video to go with this as a tribute. Anyway, we are here on Thursday, another one of those work days. A lot of you way out there on the left side of the country. You're still at work, probably. You're out there doing about what you need to do to get done. This is a little traveling music for you, The Last Ride by Luca Zaina. Luca Zaina and that's on the Freedom album. Perhaps you got a certain feel for this with the Bonticulars or perhaps The Last Ride, you know, he's been doing it a long time, everybody mouthed up. We are all heading out. It might be the last time we would be doing this. Well, yeehaw! Here we go. Anyway, it is a beautiful Thursday. It is a work day for everyone. If you are heading out again, grab your cold weather gear. Also, a lot of discussions about certain ammunition issues right now. I will repeat again over and over and over and hopefully you will repeat the mantra. Ball ammunition, ball ammunition, ball ammunition. FMJ, Full Metal Jacket, guys. If you're a new listener, one of the most important things to remember is in a fighting situation, you don't want anything to get too confusing, especially a weapon's failure to feed or whatever. Most all of your standard firearms that you're using are a military effect or type of arm, and ball ammunition slash full middle jacket offers the classic or the established pattern of projectile that was expected to be used in that weapon, the standard for whatever day. The advantage of ball ammo, reliability and feed, penetration down range through objects. Remember you're trying to get to something that's trying to get out of your line of fire. The idea is to put the peg on them and make sure that even if you don't quite have them, they might almost got to cover or they're halfway through it. Well, snagging through the cover, you can still get to what's soft and chewy on the other side. So, ball ammunition is still your best choice, FMJ. Now, it will vary. Some of the new stuff like the 380 Auto, they've really piled in the new Eco ammo that's supposed to be solid, the solid copper stuff, and that's pricey. You know what doesn't have to be copper, and that's something I think is rather fascinating. So that's part of the gun industry cooperating with, because you know what? works really well and I've got World War II German zinc plated projectiles they look just as good as they did when they were built. Zinc. Zinc plated. Zinc coated steel or zinc coated you know and then go with you know whatever core zinc core why not? Zinc is out there in force it's cheaper by far cheaper than copper and still gives the same end result the cool thing is that the zinc can be reprocessed by you just like we do the lead if need be. However, I would keep it separate from the lead because of the way that the crystal structure is affected by casting, as you know, as you activate it thermally, and how it sets and how it cools progressively. So you have different cavitation issues and also forming issues. So if you had zinc, you want to keep the zinc separate from the lead. As long as we can keep mining lead and recovering lead, there's virtually, God knows how many tens of thousands of tons out there, guys. Just got to think ahead. And as they've tried to cut it off, don't worry, we can pick up more. There's plenty of ranges out here that are no longer used where nobody, well, literally the lead is literally like gravel on the ground. We've got two places we were actually going to do just before the snow hit because we still had some clear patches. But don't worry, he'll be sitting right there when the rain and the snow and the slush and the mud is all gone. That will have washed away more of the soil and even exposed more of the lead pellets. And at these particular sites, some big heavy pistol out of 45 and a lot of 50 caliber laying just on the surface from the impact area because all these big pistols that were used out there. and other heavy rifles and a lot of shotgun slugs and I love shotgun slugs because they're really big and there's lots of lead with every one of them. Now we don't cast those. I keep, what I do is literally we sort these as we go so if it's a shotgun projectiles they go over there, if it's pistol projectiles they go over there, if it's rifle projectiles they go over there. We keep them separate and we cast them separate. They cast them back into their intended design. There is a reason for that. That way again, the different tin, antimony and lead combinations with different projectiles. Also with military, if you have a certain 8mm Mauser, there is a lot of stuff that the Germans did that makes it unique. So, keep it separate and unique. And that way when you cast and you weigh the bullets in, you find out what your variance is after you do a test batch of 50, after you let them cool, then you put them through the measuring process, the weight process, you scale them right there. And you check to see what the variance is in that particular alloyed mix. See how that works? Because when you reheat something in melt items, you want to find out whether or not there is any settling. Now the reason I say that is because with the German World War II production, by the middle of the war, a lot of experimental runs, which became standard in most cases, but experimental runs took place. So there is a mix of materials used for the projectiles, for the case, and for the powder. Now, especially the one thing to remember is doing a little research on what the Germans experimented with to simplify rifle powder production, but still end up with consistent pattern. Now the Germans actually simplified their powder production and brought down one-third the cost by the middle of the war. It would behoove us to find out more about what they did and to mimic it. Oh, that might be an idea. Yeah, anyway. So for everybody out there, again, be prepared for the spring. We've got planting to do and we've got digging to do. And the digging to do has to do with bullet casting. Now, on fresh ammunition for all you new listeners out there, and then we've got some friends especially that are down towards Arizona. Guys, unammo.com, jgsales.com have some pretty good buys on and off. Unammo, if you're close enough you can drive there, I'd go pick it up. Drive in, pick it up, take it home. But when they have certain ammunition available, remember the stuff is only going to be there for so long and then it's gone. It's just that simple. It happens. It's just the way they work. Don't be surprised. But with regard to, for instance, your .223 rifles, 7.62x39, try to go ball ammunition, especially for your inexperienced or less experienced new shooters. That's why we're promoting this because, again guys, you can focus on rifle marksmanship, you can focus on the basics because you're not having to do immediate action and clearing drills. You may still have to do that anyway. We understand that. But we can customize that by going to ball ammo. Go ahead, do we have a caller? I bought a box of 25 ball FMJ but it appears to be brass. Oh yeah, brass is something they have been using. Remington did some recently. They have done it in the past but mostly over the last 20 years. You used to see bronze or brass, mostly bronze. Remember with the Winchester, it was in precursor to the Nosler tips? Remember that? A bronze penetrator on the top? Looks like an artillery shell. The copper and the bronze definitely contrast. You easily see that. That's true. The brass is another solution. Copper in there, of course. The brass is an alloy. What was the cost on the ammo? I paid $26 for a box of $50. $45? $26 for a box of $50 rounds. Oh, okay. Well, again, something you need... What was the manufacturer? Who was the brand? The brand is Wellier and Billlets. Oh, Silly Billlets. Yeah, Silly Billlets. The checks. Yeah, I call them Silly Billlets. Is it Solid Brass, Mark? It's good, but actually it probably is brass because they've been they've done a bunch of different Work like that in the past before World War two that's Czechoslovakia And they also have a couple of their subcontractors out of Serbia and out of the Baltic states Most of that though is Czech and that's something they did back in like 38 and 37 1937 1938 also Yeah, that makes sense. Hey, thanks a lot. Well, thanks for the heads up on that. I'm going to check that out now because that's a vision for the past. More on that in a minute when we come back. You want to stick around or you got to take off? I got to take off. Okay, thank you. Appreciate that, sir. We are the top. Bless the Republic. That's the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We're on your mark. We'll stay at night. Ooh-rah! Kick him in the slack, beat him down hard, make him wish to god they never showed up. We'll be back for the second hour in just a minute. Grab a cup of coffee. You gotta take off, grab your hat, coat, gloves, everything. It's Michigan winter out there and everywhere else looks like it's just as cold. Right here on LTR! We'll be back.

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
