I had a dream the other night that, well I didn't understand, a figure walking 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've secured for you, we hope you to always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to this. 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 You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly 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 can be Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom 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? Both 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, freedom burning bright. As Iowoki 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 trampled each God given right, we only watch him 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? He called out from the grave. Our brothers and on, and behind the lines in occupied territories West, Southwest, West, East, and North. Gentlemen, you're listening to us. ...and perhaps... ...the micro effect in the afternoon. We're also on AM and FM micro stations... ...CBE base stations... ...and Ultra Net Hallmark and Golden Spike technologies... ...east and west of the Mississippi... ...along with Alaska. Good afternoon to our friends in the Aleutians. Or is it on the Aleutians? They're not really in the island, are they? Well, it's in the area of, or it's on the islands thereof. How's that sound? That may work out better that way. And, of course, also to our friends in the great state of Jefferson, Jefferson, $2 bills flying everywhere, spending on gas, $2 bills, spending on food, $2 bills, spending on everything, $2 bills with Jefferson on it. Jefferson, Jefferson, Jefferson, especially right now, hammering home the fact that everybody wants to get rid of California. Everybody. We want them to leave. Isn't that right? Sooner rather than later, after we carve a little chunk of real estate, and after we get them all in there, and then shovel them off into the Pacific. It's a beautiful weapons Wednesday. 14th of December, it is the 8th year of open Sabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K. 2000 and... 16, old earth calendar 2016, year of battle, year of... And you know, we were talking about different weapons before we got to the, of course we're off on a number of different subjects, we always do that. This is our programming, you know, it's how we work, we're very eclectic, goo, we're everywhere. And yet we are of course back on certain subjects repeatedly, and one of them is we do talk a lot about weapons here. There are a number of other belt-fed, semi-automatic guns on the market. Now, in the 90s, the belt-fed 50 M2 semis were much more affordable. In fact, the average person could buy one for about $1,800. And that was from Valkyrie Arms, guys. Beautiful weapons, semi-automatic, 50 caliber, M2, belt-fed, everything M2 fit on them, everything M2, about them was familiar so there wasn't any problem doing the you know again doing the deal and getting a satisfied product out of the situation. A number of other weapons have come and gone. Now one of them which is very interesting I covered about four years ago I don't really know what's gone on with it because on the one hand it's really weird okay they did the AR-15 lower receiver and they took an MG34 and also an MG42 package and they made it so that an AR15 lower would just plug right in. Now that's a great idea. And any other time that would be considered the lower is considered the serial numbered component and then everything else is an add-on. Lo and behold, the whole system because even without the air 15 lower, it was still considered a firearm. So again, by the time you're done, a lot of extra paperwork, but the price was reasonable, not too extreme, a couple thousand dollars. Belts for those guns are readily available because of the present German production and so in NATO production as a matter of fact, the Northern European countries are all carrying a comparable weapon still and because of that chain link slash non disintegrating link belts are all over the place. That's one of the advantages of the gun. The other issue was 8mm or .30-06 and as I pointed out, do the .06 or do the .308 whichever the 8mm is good. But it's less available. It's not like it used to be. It used to be comparable to the AK round in terms of drug on the market. But the 8mm inventories have been bought up and or shot up. And there is still some surplus, but very little by comparison. Today it would be .308, .06, .762 by .39, .545 by .39 for a belt fed gun to be cool or large capacity magazine like we were talking about. A number of other guns have been built, BAR semi-autos, 20 round magazines, can't get any bigger and even if you do, you don't really necessarily want that. The 20 rounders are very reliable, were a proven mag. The 30s were never built in any quantity and were not built for the US military, so quality and production varies. And the aftermarket ones just don't seem to quite make it. So again, certain ideas are cool. Others just understand the limits because there was no competition in the industry with regard to the magazines or the spare parts or other issues that made it possible. possible for them to skimp or be a little less careful when they actually went to final production. And that has happened over the years with a number of different weapons. The MG34s are cool, the MG42s are cool. There was talk about doing a Matson semi-auto during the 90s because kits were readily available but that never came about as far as I know. The Matson is a fairly simple design, actually smaller than the Browning. A little less weight, very compact, very tight receiver system and was actually very popular as an aircraft gun with the Northern European Air Forces. for a period of time as a single operator's gun, set of them side by side, kind of look like a Browning but much much much much shorter. Mats and guns can still be found in surplus out of Central and South America and they're still in service with militaries down there. They don't throw away anything and the mats and guns in 30-06 or 6.5 by 55 Swede They're actually out there in pretty good numbers. They made it both similar to a Bren gun or BAR concept with a fixed box magazine. And then they made the same basic gun in a belt-fed configuration. Purely a flavor of the day thing. Both designs work. Both are reliable. The basic design is one of those unique off-the-wall things that you may run into it because a lot of guys carried them away before 1968. and the laws were different and people weren't paying attention and Canada you could buy machine guns over the counter just like you could have bolt action or a double barrel shotgun. So a lot of that stuff filtered south en masse. In fact, it continued to do so after 1968 because the Canadians did not have their equivalent to the Gun Control Act of 1968 until about 7273 and it really wasn't in any kind of force until late 74. Well between 68 and 74, a whole lot of guns waddled across the border. Lottie, anti-tank guns, 55 caliber boys guns, 50 millimeter pack artillery, and 75 pack anti-tank guns, German, all kinds of fun stuff. It's all out there. It's all hanging around. And it's out there in force. And it wasn't expensive, so a lot of people went across, picked it up, and brought it back across the border. The same is true with Sten guns. They were about $8, $9 a piece. American, if you went over to Canada, and they literally had them stacked like firewood bundled up with AMAG and broken down the way the paratrooper normally would carry the gun. And there would be a stack, and you picked one out of the stack. You look at it, and then, like that one, throw it back in the pile, so to speak, on the saw and the wall. They stack them like a cord of wood from the floor all the way to the ceiling. You pick a gun out, look at it, you like it, buy it. $8.00. Magazines, 25 cents. Tawino was average. 10 cents, as low as 10 cents a piece at one time. For Sten gun mags. How many of those do you think came across in our sitting in our snails? A whole bunch of them are. A lot of stuff like that guys. So anyway, um... You never know what's going to be coming out of the woodwork, but as far as the sub-eyes, the one thing about investing in the belt-fed guns is a balance of, again, budget, common sense. If it's a .223 gun and if it's something that presently is made, you don't really need to mimic what the other side's done. If you can get anything and you're spending a kind of money, you always want to have the bigger boom, more firepower in greater range, okay? More thud when it hits and greater range. And the main battle rifle cartridges provide that. The .308, the 8mm, .30-06, certainly the .50 caliber guns of all types. I mentioned the boys, .55s. A lot of guys rebarrel them to .50s and those are floating around as .50 caliber guns, which means there's no restriction on them. Except they might try to fiddle-fart with them. So don't show anybody anything. If you find one, just put it away and be quiet because they are a nice, heavy, flat platform to shoot. very comfortable to fire in 55 BMG and they are tack drivers. Do a little research, go to YouTube and punch in boys anti-tank rifle and there's a whole series of videos that were the original training videos for the US Army and the Marine Corps and you'll understand what I'm talking about. Now the Lottie and the Salothrum are a step up. Those are both 20 millimeter magazine fed guns and the Lottie had the largest 20 millimeter shell made in a 20 millimeter cannon round. Set up by, of course, news by the Finns and the Swedes very successfully during the northern wars against the Communists, against the Russians. The Ladi ended up out in the market for about $125 a unit years ago and that was a complete transport chest, transport skis for the gun out of the chest Several magazines, a combination for I think it was 25 rounds in the carrying case, plus maintenance kit, all spare parts you need, and all went into a transport can, it was like a little coffin. And of course the gun can be disassembled and broken down so it's half its length. Overall, the weapon, here's the first rule about firing heavy guns like this. Now, you probably got behind an M60 and they told you to get your, you know, get lined up right behind it. You know, remember, bring it up to your shoulder, place that left hand up underneath the buttstock and lock that buttstock right into your shoulder. The upper strap lays on the shoulder top. And the idea is to suck that gun in with a three point control. Okay, the bipod to the front and your two elbows to the rear. And then of course your body works as a level platform behind it, adding weight. With any of these big guns, in fact I've watched this as people go, oh, I got hurt. If they were to lay prone, now here's basically how you need to think about these guns. You ride a big gun. You don't try to control a big gun. If it's a 55 boys or a, again, a 20 millimeter Kano shoulder fired gun slash cannon, they can be fired all day if you know what you're doing. If you put your weight right behind the gun, your shoulder is going to take all of the abuse and you will know it. It's like getting, it's like one guy said, it's like going three rounds with a heavyweight boxing champion, you know, firing five rounds from a lot of, you know, rapid fire. Well, that's if you don't know what you're doing. Here's what you do. If you're going to be firing prone with a 20mm gun, the same basic concepts apply about how you use where you position your hands. Right hand is on the trigger, you know, trigger and pistol grip assembly. Left hand comes back, the elbow is planted, but before we do that, we're going to plant our body a little differently. So before we get behind the gun, we're going to situate the gun for where we want to shoot it. Remember, it is a big gun. Trust me, you don't just run up and throw it to the ground like an M16. That ain't going to happen. But you place the gun, And then you get behind the assist, you estimate how you're gonna get behind the gun and you angle your body about 45 degrees off center slightly again, if you're looking down on it, the gun is at the 12 o'clock mark. We want your body angled at about the seven o'clock mark. Do you understand what I'm saying? I want you to angle your body slightly, you know, 6 30 and seven o'clock, ideally at seven, in other words, on an angle to the gun. You then follow through on all of the other procedures normally applied. When you pull the trigger, you will ride with the recoil. You don't release the weapon, you keep the weapon sucked right, that shoulder, you know, shoulder weld complete. And what happens is the recoil is now stretched out across the whole of your body rather than just applying energy directly to your collarbone and your shoulder. This allows you to even sustain rapid fire without great abuse to the shooter. Now it wouldn't hurt to have a shooting pad, in other words, build up a shooter's coat for the gunner, that's another added feature. But the Lottie, for instance, is a riding carriage system. It fires in the entire upper receiver assembly and works back kind of like a trailed artillery piece. So the recoil stroke is much longer than you would expect. It's still possible to fire relatively fast with a 20. The Barrett is a faster gun. But again, remember, in a .50 caliber, by the way, not a .20, but remember that you can apply the same basic technique to rapid fire. Unless it's vehicle-mounted, then you don't worry about it. Like I said, if you have it fixture or pintle-mounted, all of these guns, the vehicle itself takes up the weight of the vehicle, takes up the energy applied, and there's little to no felt recoil with the gun. Most important is then is maintaining control to keep weapon on target. Now, the most common mistake made is getting that body right behind the weapon. With certain weapons, yes, this applies for control purposes. And again, the felt recoil and the short stroke of the action as such. When I say short, by comparison to a 20mm, the Lottie, having fired the Lottie quite a bit, the Lottie gun, I have fired the slow-thrum some. I have fired the Orlacon semi-auto, shoulder fired, very limited. I know people who have them. I fired pretty much, well, the 55 boys, we fired that to the point where it nauseam. And again, the 55 boys and the 50 pretty much the same, but in both cases, or needless to say with all of them, they do have a compensator, and that is a critical component that must be on the gun when firing it in order to less abuse the shooter. Needless to say, without the compensator, it is, shall we say, a more attention-getting experience, and you better break out the ibuprofen if you're gonna do a lot of it, okay? because pain will be involved in your life. So, fire proper planning prevents piss poor performance, do a little research on these guns and how to understand how to use them. It's amazing what you can learn from all those training tapes and videos that were designed originally as movies of course, which were designed to put a whole bunch of people out in the field with the ability to hit something at the other end with those guns which are going to be showing up on the battlefield. Our people have them. The other side, no. But there's a lot of them all over the countryside. And the closer you are in the northern regions, the more of them there are. And I mean a lot of them. Okay, so just a heads up. The Browning light machine guns, or Browning medium machine guns, the Browning M1919s. Guys, in semi-auto, there are so many of those floating around. In fact, if you go to, I believe, even Center Fire still is offering them right now. I have to double check. Let's see right here. Okay, don't worry about that. I think they do. They've got on the very last page, last section of their rifle section and they have it with the, again, it's a belt fed gun Browning and they also are offering, I think it's the M52 or M53. Basically it's the MG42 German gun semi-auto. Pricey by comparison. Yeah, I think you can buy almost two of the Browning's for the price of one of the MG's. So which would I go? Two of the Browning's. A lot more parts laying around anyway. Routing are everywhere. Go to Knob Creek, whatever you don't find, you can find a variety of different gun shoots and gun shows. Collect all the other goodies you need. Build up more, for instance, link builders, etc. Brand new links are available, either World War II, Korea, or Vietnam era to include both American, European, and Israeli. All the links are built the same. The Israelis didn't invent anything. They got one of our factories for free and they cranked the stuff out themselves. They stole it from us. They always do slops. Anyway, it's again financial choice, but I know common sense. How many guns can I put in the field for the price? And in the process, is it more sensible based on the idea that I will more likely find more of the goodies laying around? If I want to solve this in .223, for instance, as far as like the one for .8000, when you put a hole in the enemy on the other side, you'll run into those FN-manufactured, other NATO variants, and even some Americans. So, because everybody's got our stuff. So one way or another, you're going to run into something like that or comparable to it, and your heavier weapon will harvest it, and then you can go on doing what you want to do with the weapon you got, and the one you just took. Just that simple. Anyway, we're at the bottom. Oh my goodness. And I had a couple of requests and I had it lined up, but I moved my system around because we were talking here. And I wanted to bring up an email that BC sent, which I'm going to go over here in a minute. But in the meanwhile, as we say, meanwhile back at the ranch, and looking guys, sorry, trying to do three things at once here and not getting what I want done. Let's see, you know what? I got some cute up right away and I could probably play it and I've played it a few times. You'll recognize it. A bunch of the girls and guys have asked for it. We got a few more days worth of... We got plenty of broadcast time. And a few more days before the holidays. You're not going to play holiday piece. It's Borderlands and Short Change Hero again. This is the actual, the original version done for the game. So for everybody out there on the Borderlands, And for all of our friends that are listening, including Agatha, you guys all made the request. Hey, you're going to take over the network for a minute. Here we go. And again, short change, Cheryl, the original. LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. If you'd like to donate, remember we've got the end of the year drawing coming up. And the end of the year, of course, it looks like we're getting closer day by day here. I want to say thank you to all of our friends for the large donations. We had some people donate significant amounts, and I appreciate that. I want to say thank you. Again, guys, every year we make the bill. Hopefully we'll do that this year again. And we've set a goal. It's very transparent. We tell everybody what it is we got going on and you can look right there and see what's happening, as we say. of the things going on. We do have a schedule change, just a little heads up. We're going to be changing the first hour, 8 o'clock hour of the Intel report in the morning. That's going to be switched out to other programming. So we'll be starting at 9 o'clock to 11 instead of 8 to 11. And in the afternoon, this is with the micro effect. Of course, our schedule will change in the morning too because we won't be starting until 9 o'clock instead of 8 o'clock Eastern time. but only two hours in the morning and that's fine, that'll work out because microfractic is picking up some of our hours in the afternoon. So you'll be able to pick us up another way, but they'll be pulling off this feed and that will be of course an addition in another direction. So allows me to make some space time-wise, not much, about an hour, hey, hours and hour guys, so I get an hour back for a little bit. And as long as that works out, then we'll stick with that new schedule. If it doesn't, we can always fill that place back in again. But we'll see how it works out. Hello Mark. And go ahead, Connor. Yeah, just a curiosity. Is there any time frame as when that schedule in the morning is supposed to change? Should be as of January. Should be as of the 1st of January or whatever the first workday is for January, the first Monday. That's when we should be switching out. So it will be, it will be a little bit, we're just letting anybody know in advance. So everybody will be panicking. I think that's going to be Monday the 2nd, if I'm not mistaken. Alright, let's look right here. I can see real quick. Yeah, Monday would be the 2nd. Yep. Well, I didn't know, I hadn't heard it mentioned earlier. Yeah, I didn't really pay attention to the data. And again, as far as we know, everything's scheduled. There has been some scheduled change with the micro effect already with other programming they're adding. And again, they're adding us to the afternoon. So we're going to be up more often in another location. As it is, they were picking up other programming or they weren't doing full schedule of programming, but they're going to be picking that back up and expanding on that so. Good for them. Yeah, that's a plus plus. We need to continue to see that happen. Part of this is that again we're getting some new people up on the air which is what we wanted and that's what we need to see happen with the micro effect. And of course anybody looking at programming, BC has a program. You're hearing him right here. He's on Thursdays, 7-8 Eastern Time, PM of course, not AM. We've got Joe from the Carolinas. He's on as a, well he was on yesterday. We've got Randy who's on Monday and again the 7 to 8 o'clock. So there is the ability to do additional programming. Craig from Forbid Knowledge is on tonight on Wednesdays from 7 to 8. But if you'd like to find out more you can give Ed a call. You can drop an email with him and just go to Liberty Tree Radio. The information is there on the page and you can connect accordingly. If you have the interest to do rebroadcasting or broadcasting on our network, hey, just talk to Ed, we'll work out the time and we'll get on with the mission. The big thing here again is that with everybody asking questions, at the very least, point people towards us, guys, towards any Patriot broadcasting you can. Everybody's tired of the controlled media. They're laughing their ass off about how it went from we won, we won, to we lost. And then the old boo-hoo and the snowflakes and rioting for how long? Burning down the house and I'm supposed to feel bad about you losing. You're lucky I didn't shoot your hind end right from the get-go. We are up on the micro effect right now and for everybody that's another direction, another way you can link up. It looks like things start to get loaded up because they do, it does happen this hour. And 8 o'clock, we had quite a load on the service and that's happened before. It's not been a real problem more recently, well at least nothing they know of it could let us know more. But remember with that alternate solution, if anything is going on, you can always jump over there real quick and see if you can get it a little easier to hook up. So again, we are rebroadcasting with the microeffect.com. We're on libertytreeradio.4mg.com and we are on Indiana Freedom Talk Radio. There we go. So we're triple hitting right now even as we speak, which is very good. And I know the schedule is picking up steam, so again, we are definitely up, and that means part of the schedule is already in play. We are probably not going to see the new schedule with the morning until January 2nd. And maybe we can do it sooner. I'll find out. Again, we are into the Christmas holidays. Some people don't like to do major changes until after, you know, start something new with the New Year's, and I understand that. The other thing here, too, again, to do Christmas holidays before I forget, Again, go to Center Fire Systems. I mentioned them earlier. They do have some pretty good group buys on things. And if you get over there, check out the 12 Days of Christmas or 12 Deals of Christmas, I think is what they call it. And once you get there, and I'm looking right now, even as we speak, let's see what they have there. And I went through it, but I don't know if they, see, I don't know what their cycle is on this. Okay, Center Fire, let's go to Center Fire Systems dot com. There we go. computer is not always what I'm looking at guys. I've got other technology here. Tis the season to be jolly 12 deals of Christmas! If you tap that and go to the 12 deals of Christmas you'll see that they have a number of pages of items, package deals, they only offer 10 of this or however many of that and as they count down as people buy of course that counts it down to zero. They did have some pretty good magazine buys, still they have a good magazine buy for the PS 90 but The PS90 itself has been pricey. I mean, it priced itself out of existence is what really happened. But the PS90 is in 5.7x28 FN and it's a neat little, it's a Stargate rifle. Now, you still have the AR57, which is the 5.7 AR15 with the same magazine on the roof. And the magazine well is the dump point for ammunition, so they actually put a dump bag in the magazine well and you can catch all your brass. And that is a separate 5.7x28 upper for the AR-15 and it takes these magazines. So 10 mags for $65, well $6.50 is reasonable. Another thing that nobody's touched on, and I'm going to be grabbing one of these bubbles myself, I just forgot about it. It's got 25 of these two-cell pistol mag pouches. Guys, we've used a lot of these. I've bought many, many of them, especially when they go on sale. Right now I need more. In fact, Don wants a bunch. They work really well. They've got a really heavy double buckler. It's not a little tiny thing. You've got to try and figure out how do I get it open. It's actually a pretty good size quick release buckle. Squeeze buckle and the neat thing is that with gloves on you can get it to work quite well. It'll handle four 1911 magazines or two large capacity pistol mags in 40 or 9 millimeter or whatever and It's a good price 25 for for $40 $39.99. $39.99. Okay, I'll throw the penny in. There you go and that particular deal is on page right at the top of the page now because they've added things, no almost to the top of the page, second line. They do have a bunch of the drums, they've got a bunch of the Sega drums, they've got a number of things you've got to look at it and shop around. They had a bunch of Smith and Wesson Model 10s for $300 a piece with a pockmire grip or with the original factory wood. Both of them, that's a good price nowadays, used to be we buy that gun all day for $75. But another interesting thing they've got here is a Diamondback full-size pistol. Again, in both the gray or dark earth. And this is the 9mm Parabellum. It's the DBFS-9. It's a full-size 9mm automatic featuring a glass fiber reinforced polymer framing grip. The ergonomically contoured grip fits comfortably in the palm of the hand and improves overall hold of the pistol. Basically, it's a no-name brand Glock. Everybody take a look at it, you tell me. Remember that now the Diamondback, the original 380 that they were pushing, is a tiny tot Glock pistol. I mean, it's a scaled down in all directions scrunched Glock. A lot of gunsmiths like the gun. In fact, you'll find there's a bunch of guys doing different videos and they ask real quick, well what do you got in your pocket by the way right now? And the guy looks back in his rear pocket and he's got it in an envelope holster, you know, in a wallet holster and he goes, oh, diamond back in 380 auto. And he just pops it out, shows it real quick. Several people have done that or they're just like, yeah, it's what I carry, it's just cool, it's a neat little gun, it works every time. Now there's been people up and down on the Dyan back when it came out and the gobsmists have even said well you get were some that were tweaky He goes but the one I got were flawlessly So this is a full-size 9 millimeter and if you look at it, it's a it's a Glock I mean it's generic Glock for a brand new out of the box for 275 dollars I don't know about mags see this is the thing when I see stuff like this, you know, my first thought is magazines Takes the 15 round mag plus one in the tube, you know, one in the chamber. So you got a good capacity. It's 9 millimeter, nothing fancy there. But they have it both in dark earth or in gray for $275 a piece and that's over there in the sales section. And they have... Oh, they've been selling them. Oh, they have been selling them. Even as I mentioned it, they had 10. They're down to four in the gray and three in the dark earth, so that's actually been moving. Both of these handguns. Also they have the Ruger LC9 9mm pistol. Nice little pocket gun again. Work just fine for a defense gun in the field. If that's what you prefer and if it fits your wallet then that would be the way to go and those are $300 apiece. So you can get a full-size diving back. 275 where you can get a Ruger for 300 and it's a compact Ruger. I think if I were looking for a shoulder holster or for a belt pistol gun, $25 less. That means I've got more ammo or I've got more mags. Most important is more mags, right? So as long as I can get more mags to the diamondback, I might go with the diamondback in that one. Anyway, a bunch of different stuff, too numerous to mention, and it's the holidays. We're now into the Christmas holidays. We're counting down. As I did point out earlier, they do have the FM-9, 9mm belt-fed uppers. They've got both the quick barrel release. That's $1,700. They've got the standard original model for $1,150. $1,150 each. that comes with links, that comes with a bag, catch a tray bag, and all the other accoutrements, the small tools that come with it also. You don't need anything to make the weapon work. Other than that, nothing jumping out and me going, wow, I mean a good mix of stuff. So if it floats your boat, you'll love it. If not, well, look around, see what else is there, and take advantage of what you can find. The next thing was also AmmoMan.com and AimSurplus both have some interesting buys. AimSurplus though has been taking major hit as far as the amount of material it's sold and trying to replace what it sold. And I've noticed that they've not been getting the inventory back in. So AimSurplus does have some pretty good buys. Typically on preview partisan you got to catch them when the stuff comes in because there are people hawking the place now. and I've noticed that as quick as it shows up, they are cleaning the shelves out, especially in the more unique, but usable military calibers. Now, if it's a bolt gun, really doesn't make any difference if it's hollow pointer ball. I prefer ball first, because you never know when you're going to run into a sub-automatic gun you might need it for. And just in case something's a little tweaky on a rifle you didn't know anything about. But, if all they got left is the soft point, and it's for a manually operated gun, I would go the soft point just to get more ammunition in the box for my rifle. If it's something that especially is an inherited gun or I got it really cheap and I want to put everything up onto at least an ammo cans worth of ammo. And the preview part is on, it's real big right now. Along with, I've noticed that Fiachi has got another wave of stuff that just came in. Or Fi-o-chi. It's Fi-o-chi. Or Fi-a-chi. Or tomato-tomato. Take your pick. Whatever you like, I'll love you for it. You just keep pronouncing it however you like to and I'll Fi-a-chi them to death. It's just like Silly Bill-it, okay? So anyway, 9 millimeter, 115 grain, 50 round boxes, $10. That's at AIMSurplus.com. AIMSurplus.com. And again, that's ball ammunition, nothing to write home about, but certainly something that's usable, serviceable. What is scary is the prices of the moistened nagots since they've crept all the way up into an R almost now at $300 apiece. I love the moistened nagot rifle. It's just like the K98 Mauser. But the reason I bought them back in the day is because I was buying them for under $100 a gun. Now for $270, or forgive me, $270, I can get a brand new Savage, or I can get a brand new Mosberg bolt-action rifle with a scope on it. So the difference is, again, I can get it in .308, .30-06, .20-43, whatever I want to, whatever I choose. So there's the balancing act now. It's like, oh, that kind of hurts for that price. So I would look in another direction, but if you really need more nagots, they are available, they're out there, but shop around. I think classic firearms right now probably has the best price for the factory rebuild, which a lot of them are anyway. They've guns have been around for a hundred years or less or more, depending on what, you know, again, production stamping is on them. And so yeah, the arsenal is taken in, refinish, rework, and then put them back in the field. Other than that, and a whole lot of aim that's jumping out at me going woohoo or ha ha, they do have some AK mags for $9 a piece for steel euro. And as a matter of fact, you go. And they do have right now the nickel boron bolt carriers for $100 a piece again. So they do have them in stock and they are carrying them in the inventory. Next, somebody asked me about SKS's. And yes, they do make a paratrooper, or they did make what was a paratrooper model. It doesn't have a folding stock. It just has a lot shorter barrel. What's fascinating is that particular model that they built, while it has a shorter barrel than the average SKS, basically a 16 or a 16.5, depending upon the year, the other interesting thing about that particular SKS, if you pay attention to the ones that have been out and about, is it takes an AK mag. It was a transition gun. When the Chinese couldn't get the AKs, they could get the mags. And the first production models, they basically made what's kind of like a bucket or shoot magazine well. and using the flat back Chinese mags, they fit flawlessly into the magazine well. The rifle functions perfectly. The one variation on this particular pattern of rifle that came in under the China import years and was costing only about $125 a piece was a, again, Chinese SKS, flat back mags, bucket slash, again, the guideway type magazine well recessed. built in the bottom of the stock because obviously that's where the SKS magazine normally would be and interestingly enough with a a pistol grip stock with a thumb hole type system making it a very comfortable gun to shoot. The weapons are now quote-unquote collectors items that's the biggest problem is they're a collective item and so unfortunately what's happened is they've been you know they've jacked price-wise but If you run into them for about $300 nowadays, it's actually a pretty reasonable price for an SKS, considering. And you might even run into them for less, and if you do, grab it. They are definitely a worthwhile firearm. I will point out, though, that if you're looking at those Euro mags, the Euro mag has a back rib on it, perpendicular to the base, you know, the back end of the magazine. With the bucket type, slash the shoot type magazine well that's on those SKS's, What you have to do is grind down and flatten out that back strap down so far so those will fit. Otherwise, you're looking for Chinese mags because that was the norm for the rifle. And that rib prevents the mag from locking in because it's not hanging in the air. It's up inside a magazine well. Now it accommodates a standard Chinese mag. But the one with the back rib, if you're really hardcore you can modify them. Personally I just start looking for flat mags and prioritize them towards the gun. The, oh for instance, as a matter of, yeah that's true. Somebody just mentioned here, well wouldn't the Tapco mags work? Yep, work all day. The Tapco mags are flat back mags, they work fine in the Chikom SKS that take the AK mags. This was built for the AK mags. The only thing is it was sad because it was a paratrooper variant. They imported it both with a 10-round fixed magazine and with that, well I think it's a Type 63 modification. And so both types are in country. Both are short barrel though, only 16-inch barrel. And, you know, they lose performance because the original SKS's are 20. But it is a nice gun and they are a chrome bore. They are chrome parts and it is a very functional firearm. We've probably got, I'd say we've got maybe 40 or 50 of those in service with our guys here. I know I've got three or four that are in reserve. All of them work, all of them are functional. Wouldn't think twice about carrying them because they're a beautiful weapon. Okay. And if you get an acquire one, somebody I think asked me that question because they probably got one they can get for a good price. Grab it, go ahead and grab it. Just remember, I told you about the magazines. Otherwise, in handguns, switching back over there, with the wheel guns, with the exception of a handful of weapons such as, you know, again, Peacemaker single-action type revolvers, pretty much every revolver out there has a speed loader for it. Because somebody said, well, aren't the revolvers slow? Advantage and disadvantage a revolver. If I'm involved in things and I don't want somebody to know what it was I was shooting with, I can use a revolver and I don't have to worry about the brass being left behind. Now, the reason I bring it up is if you're loading your own, there's all kinds of mean things you can do to use any number of different projectiles because it's a revolver, you don't have to worry about feed. So if you get a bucket of really mixed in odds and ends, 3.57 diameter bullets and you got a .38 special or a .357, you could load up any spec bullet you want, any spec bullet you run into as long as a .357 diameter, right? It means you can also use a lot of 9mm projectiles. Oops! Yeah, I could. And so you can really create some confusion and then you can also polycover the projectile and sleeve it. You can swage them if you want to and reduce the size. Poly sleeve it. And when the sleeve leaves the barrel, this is not saboing, but it's similar. Poly sleeve disintegrates or breaks down on all when it leaves the tube. and the projectile proceeds with little or no rifling. Which is kinda cool. Okay. The other advantage again is control, well, first of all, control of brass. Accuracy with regard to the revolvers, typically again, I prefer a six inch tube, six inch barrel on a revolver if at all possible, but a lot of four-inchers are out there and lots of two-inch also. Personal flavor choice there. Again, how far do you want to reach and what kind of energy do you want to deliver with the weapon that you're carrying? Um, now unlike Walking Dead, we actually aim our pythons, okay? Uh, we don't have the python with the barrel hanging low constantly and it's like, hey buddy, lift the barrel. Lift the barrel, buddy. If you're gonna shoot somebody, you better lift the barrel and line it up with a target. Come on, guy. I know you're tired. I know it's hot in Georgia. I know, I know zombies stink. And I know your senses are probably reeling with that stench, but by God, lift the barrel and pull the trigger! If you notice that, if you think about it, when you look at the sight alignment with that gun that he carries, when he carries that python, he pulls it out. It's like, are you kind of like intentionally wobbling downward? Or is there something that's a little too heavy for you? Please, you know, let me know. Otherwise, again, the python can have a weighted barrel, so can the smiths. There are variations in that design. Another one, the Rugers. I have no problem with Rugers. Everybody always asks me, I just had somebody have asked the other day in an email, no I don't have anything against Rugers. I have it against Ruger himself, but Ruger's dead so I'm not worried about it. And the old Speed 6 and Security 6, beautiful firearms. Built like a brick dog house. You can beat somebody to death with them, turn right around, reload the gun and shoot them again and just keep right on working. The Red Hawks and the Black Hawks have been around for a long time. There were no bugs, but if there's any variants that they felt they needed to make on the gun, they've already done it. Red Hawk, of course, in the big boy calibers, along with the Black Hawk, which goes everywhere from 38 Special, 357, 41 Magnum, 44 Magnum. They've done pretty much everything with the Black Hawk. And then there's a baby Black Hawk, which is the Bearcat collector's item now. They remade it again since the first batch came out. And good little pistol, but all of those, all those are single action if they're the Black Hawks. So that's one of the considerations there. And because they're single action, they're also a memory, single feed gate system, you swing out keeper and you turn the cylinder and you have to eject one round and insert another one, etcetera, etcetera, however you're going to do it. Whereas the traditional side gate roll or the top brake guns, all of those will use a speed loader. And I highly recommend if you're gonna go or if you inherit a wheel gun or if you're gonna buy one for a reasonable price. I've been told there's been some nice ones out there for 120 to $150, because everybody's got semi-automatic mania. And since the handgun is a gun you're going to because there's a weapons malfunction or because you needed your handgun to get two, the rifle that somehow you got separated from or the next one you're going to take from your enemy. Any of these weapons, any hand cannon will do, which is perfect your skill and develop your skill in using it. A lot of guys can demonstrate, oh come on, McCulloch of course is not, is McCulloch, whatever it is, McCulloch, McCulloch, McCulloch, you know the guy that does the speed shooting. Well watch him when he does revolvers. And he'll demonstrate that it's purely a matter of proficiency because you can dump just as many rounds down range with a little bit of expertise with a revolver as you can with a semi-automatic pistol. The difference being is that you really should be aiming anyway. Volume fire won't do if you're just cracking bullets over somebody's head. Okay? So yes, a Smith Model 10. official police, cold, python, model 27, again any of the Rugers, the XP100, that's the newer cycle, but not even the newest, there are newer revolvers in that with Rugers, the Ruger line, all of them are serviceable, all of them will work.
