Summary
Mark Koernke hosted a weapons-focused episode covering ammunition pricing, firearm availability, and unconventional weapons technology. The first hour examined current AK-47 and AR-15 pricing, ammunition costs (particularly 7.62x39 rounds at 35 cents), and recommended suppliers like Atlantic Firearms and Palmetto State Armory. The second hour shifted to advanced topics including discarding sabot ammunition for black powder artillery, mortar construction, armor vulnerabilities on main battle tanks, and improvised incendiary devices. Koernke emphasized practical preparedness, cost-effective weapons procurement, and tactical applications of historical and contemporary munitions.

The right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt, it's to protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless. People that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones. We're going to beat you out of office or suck on my machine gun. Kick together, stay sharp and follow me. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. 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's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. 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. 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 in each God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist 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 in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he 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 R. Kornke. one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters on and behind the lines in occupied territories southwest northeast east and uh... central ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on liberty tree radio dot for m g dot com liberty tree radio on satellite and we are on We are on AM&FM micro stations, CB base stations, and Ultra Net Hallmark and Golden Spike Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there in the lower 48 which is CONUS along with the Outline 2 states, the territories, and the clock. It is 5.06 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. Yeah, forgive me, something just fascinating here. What it is, Weapons Wednesday. It is the 19th of May. It is the 13th year of open Fabian Socialist and Soviet occupation of America with a K 2021 old earth calendar. 2021 battle for the Republic dance of swords. We have a weapons of mass destruction training exercise that's going to be taking place in the Sio township. and uh... any minute now like well tomorrow and or in the next day or two here were supposed to be hearing explosions and all kinds of other fun stuff fascinating so everybody is kinda looking around to see what else is happening so kind of put a mobilization order out for everyone almost instantly And everybody is now well watching the stalls. We know where everything is. We just need to make sure that we know when it moves. So everybody now is on Mt. Sian, Tinter Hook, because we're not dramatically excited. We are just simply focused and prepared to deal with the problem. Like I said, you never know how it's going to start. And if they're stupid enough to use one scam as a way to try and advance another, that will be the uh... well will be the beginning and of all the old games beginning of the new just that simple so pay attention there uh... anyway what do you know if we have a weapon wednesday and i was looking to see if it will add a can uh... it let a firearms has got uh... a bunch of eight days it came in but i don't know what the price ranges and there's been nothing cheap for quite some time it here's the problem the a k is are up around the mid grade a r fifteen is where you have to be a bargain weapon to actually acquire in the decent firearm across the board uh... the ammunition though is still deter cheapest right now of anything out there because of one other company that apparently has been brought in while while they're related to uh... the petal meat puppet or to obama i got a figure i've got a figure that mister in a japan anybody getting any special dispensation to bring stuff in then their but buddies with the regime okay that's just one thing i'd have to figure out i mean certainly mercenary runner-revolution companies are out there all over the place i know that we've been dealing with them for decades decades in all my life almost now so we know who's who in the blue but there's a couple of new company names other pull out of somebody's aris for weapon ammunition importing and uh... it's another competitor against uh... to llama and red army So the interesting thing is that the prices are staying down. They've not accelerated the way that everything else has in .223, .556, 9mm, .40 caliber, .45 ACP, take your pick. And none of those pistol cartridges should be as expensive in any way, shape, or form as the rifle rounds. The rifle rounds cost so much more in the way of time to make and precision. Pistol rounds are stunt dummy crude by comparison, seriously. and their jacket you know the way the prices are on the press for ammunition it's you know that end of itself is a classic example of secret weapons for silent wars you know when heating up your resources in the process so that you don't have as much of my argument is what it was cheap and i'm we told you to buy it if you did buy it when it was cheap then you did pretty well you know what i mean but if you wait till now all because all the was always going to be cheap and so you didn't buy a pile of it now all the sudden it's like all now i need a bunch and work with a panel all that already gone and now the other stuff is in place but what it means is that we need to refocus and any of the more reasonable prices and so again 7.62 by 39 I don't care if it's even a little shoddy for accuracy to be quite honest pistol rounds especially when you're spraying and praying with those why not spray and pray with the AK instead got a little more of weight going down range and also a little more velocity but you can fire you know now we're in the reverse order remember I told you before you could fire three going on four nine millimeter for the price of one five five six at one time Now you can fire two and a half 8K rounds for the price of one nine millimeter round Which means guess which one I'm going to shoot your ass with I'm gonna shoot you with the 8K why it's cheaper Okay, just that simple if I was if I'm looking for I need something to hose down an area with I think the 7.62x39, if it's become cheaper, would be a much better choice than a 9mm round. And I've argued this and explained this for decades about the balance of power here in terms of, what am I trying to do with a suppression weapon? That's what I'm talking about. We're talking about hosing a target. Now the idea is that you are suppressing the target so other people who actually are paying attention can use their sights and hit what they're shooting at rather than just more spraying and praying, which does nothing. Well, it's very impressive from a distance. the volume of sound is phenomenal uh... but the performance level is something to be desired and again expenditure of resource materials that we need for the long haul prior proper planning prevent pit poor performance that simple so uh... as it is uh... setup with most all of these systems everything is obviously being peddled with two a degree intentionally to waste your time uh... that something that i think as we point out you're going to see more and more of as we go and it shouldn't be a surprise in any way shape or form uh... anyway let's see it lanta uh... let's see if i can pull them up here real quick w w w dot atlanta the reason i bring them up is because they did get a notice but it uh... notice seems to have uh... disappeared which can happen let's see they pull stuff all the time so uh... and i don't think jumping out of the committee go while uh... again i would point out that uh... we're looking for something in the five hundred dollar or less range that busy utility a k unfortunately here's what happened with that uh... now all those of the classic walk a case you know if if if if if there were a couple words that when the word would be appeared like well i think shot my interest in the subject and that's one of those right there where it's like okay it's a regular plane jane a.k. with no special doodads on it no light no bells no electronics no optical light that's you know made out of glass plastic or polymers of any kind and doesn't have batteries but now it's more expensive because it's a quiet lake wait a minute classic means crude and simpler right so they should be cheaper period there's there's forty million fifty million a hundred million of things on the planet barring the ones that have been blown up and destroyed uh... it's a trip for whatever reason when they're confiscated or they're split sideways by the jewish mafia who then turned around and told them to somebody else's enemy and then uh... you know make profit off it while they're starting the next war for the process to which is what they're they think they're going to do with us uh... what's fascinating about this is again you know looking at the at the eight days and i'm not looking like in fine here i'm just curious okay sub sixty by thirty nine thirty five cents around for one thousand rounds so i need an eight eight forty seven let's just go to atlantic firearms and let's just see what we can find can we find something anything not battle rifles are looking for a case of the heart of the spring field below belt felt that's right i can handle belt that rifles uh... but not right now we're looking for a regular eight k forty seven knockoff rifle i'm looking for anything fancy i'm looking for something that is crude rude and makes me feel good and that means you know classic nowadays but the most comical part about this dude classic man but what's interesting i just got to notice that they had a whole slew of a case come in but here's what's cute it doesn't appear that they have uh... them up in the whole lot showing up on the on the screen here but that's rather fascinating in and of itself okay back to know home defense co-cade ban it's not likely magazines plenty of left-handed firearms not right now military surplus in our collectibles know that's not what i'm looking for battle rifles parrot belted you would defend systems dpm s three oh eight dsa miscellaneous three oh eight it's given me everything but what i want i don't need uh... maryland or new jersey or new york bs rifles that irrelevant to me uh... try this here and see what's happening a k for the student this way how about a dash four seven this is terrible now i can't believe i should have an a k rifle pop up here sometime And, oh, there we go. I don't want Krinkov's. I don't need toy. I don't want pistol AK pistols. I'm not going to... Although, again, if I was going to do a spray and pray, that would be a solution with the cheap AK ammo that's out there. Okay, here we go. AK47 Ford's Classic, Polymer Classic. Oh, God help me. Polymer rifle, Pommetto State Armory. pop on the right point probably should go to palmetto looks like about the enemy super prices make me go while here six uh... hundred and ninety dollars for a from sixty by thirty nine a k uh... if it's in stock and i have even punched about the vehicle actually in stock uh... eighty forty seven four classic rival god classic again palmetto and then another forage rifle would pull metal again upon a rifle i might as well go over to pomelo state armory and see what they have sitting on the shelf and because their prices should be better they are the one building these rifles right unfortunately then we get into twelve hundred dollars thirteen hundred dollars for weapons that the quality of six is uh... already understood but We're trying to buy a rifle for half the price of the AR, right? Because we could buy the ammunition for half the price of the AR, right? That's what makes it useful for me, is I got a bunch of you I need to outfit, how many rifles can I find for the best price? That's what we're looking for, okay? So as it is, $690 will get me on the table with an AK over at AtlanticFirearms.com. So that gives me the idea that I should go to Palmetto because half the rifles they have available are Palmetto State Armory rifles. Which if that's the case, State Armory doesn't mean it's the only place. I'm just going to some of the more common places because it's quick easy and Palmetto State Armory dot com. Let's see what we have in the way of full AKs, complete rifles, ready to go. I don't need parts. Again, if I have, don't have an AR with a 7.62x39 upper, Well, then I'm looking for an AK or has cast and I there are no reasonably priced s gases out there right now that I've seen anywhere But that doesn't mean I'm that doesn't mean I'm a hundred percent on that one. Okay, here we go AK Okay. Well, we've got the Palmetto versions and let's see what the ps a K's look like here. What do we have in stock? Oh Okay, so are you telling me that Atlantic Firearms is selling Palmetto State Armory rifles cheaper than Palmetto is? How does that work? Okay, this is where, this is the wonderful world of firearms, where I get into stuff like this. Okay, I go over to Palmetto, the people who made the rifles I was just looking at. And, oh my god, there's that classic category. How about just regular rifles? I just want a rifle, sir. I don't want a classic. I don't want to worry about it being a classic. It's got 57 Chevy fins on it. Oh my god, they're all $900. They're almost $1,000. $950 apiece. Okay, well that's expected. They're closer classic. I just want crude classic. I want drivable. There we go. I don't want classic. I want drivable old car. You see how that works? This is what always pisses me off. Well, again, guess what? If I wanted an Atlantic firearm, or forgive me, a Palmetto State Armory firearm, I might as well go right over to, it looks like, I might as well go over to Atlantic firearms and buy theirs. Now that's rather sad, I think, but that's just the way the world works, I guess. And I'm not worried about the newest, I just want the crudest and simplest. So I'm not impressed with Palmetto's options on their own rifle, which is $140 more or $180 more than what I would pay if I went to Atlantic for Palmetto's rifle, which doesn't make any sense. Anyway, we're shopping around. Anybody who can find a decent priced AK-47, hey, if you want to call in, we're looking for something that we need quantity, not just a single rifle. I know that gun shops have little deals here and there. Boy, it's crude on the outside, nice on the inside, serviceable enough. What we're looking for is a reasonably priced AK mags I can find. Mags I find pick and cherry pick all through the system. I can still find some decent magazines for a reasonable price. but uh... it's the rifle and this case it's the razor i need first and blade not a problem and ammunition is why i would be focusing on a k right now so for all of the out there again will mark will put a five five six we were building a r c s and we still are going to be building a r c but the ammunition is a lot more expensive than if i'm looking for cash guns especially buildings like in berry then I don't want to bury a $3,000 rifle. I don't want to bury a $2,000 rifle. I only want to bury a $1,000 rifle. If I'm going to put a weapon away or have spares on the rack to hand out to people, I need quantity. And if I need quantity in this case, then I need to make sure that I can get a combination of things, still serviceable, basic rifle. Congratulations, you showed up bare butt naked with a towel around your hind end. I can give you a standard classic AK-47. I always love that. uh... a classic air fifteen and uh... go from there the uh... big thing again oh by the way if you're looking for mags one of the many places where there are some reasonable prices up and down depends on what it is is what a country dot com over on the west coast uh... there are a few deals that they have that are unique that uh... it just their niche everybody has a niche always remember that and there's a few things that they have the other people don't have for the same price so if you're looking for parts pieces of the families uh... again what our country dot com including barrels amazingly enough that something that we've been running into some pretty decent buys with uh... again what a country dot com uh... they do have i think still the most consistent inventory they keep restocking on the uh... standard m four uh... air fifteen five five six barrels sixteen-inch nothing to write all about basic barrel but you know what they've had at this whole time and even though they run out once or twice they have been consistent about restocking which is a good thing so though the other option is you know what i'm just going to do this because again classic firearms seems to have for the moment for the moment and they might not be a very many have been stuck right now again all the best price on a k ammunition in the for the moment and we'll see how long that lasts so again classic firearms dot com there we go man now that we're okay we're back on it they will see how well this page works if anything is working well everything has been getting king today i mean hiccuping over but everybody a talk to the same thing so definitely the system is running on threads you know minimizing and it's not gonna that's not gonna happen forever they're doing whatever they're doing for well they're they're running the way they are because it's what the way they want to run so and if you're another beep it's going to be my four-part keyboard operator that they had consistently want to try and activate buttons for me because i just don't know how to do this okay they're right now okay other uh... now no no no seven hundred fifty dollars uh... to pay away from the galleels seven six two by thirty nine or five five six their last resort rifle uh... if everything else were gone there more expensive and they're not that you leave the cool wheels are minimal service quality webs okay that the first rule of that if you run into a cool real yeah i grab it use it but it would be my first choice for the rather better guns laying there uh... and there's a lot of better guns out there though if you the uh... nine hundred dollars for century arms all got you go for a small bumble and so once again it looks like strangely enough uh... wouldn't go to palmetto i'd go to atlantic firearms dot com and for about six hundred and eighty dollars i can get a basic a k forty seven seven six two by thirty nine classic and uh... then ammunition thirty five cents around if they have a look see what's going on with center fire on that and if they do it still well they've got some of the total ammo for us nine millimeter for fifty cents a round call look at that kind of nine millimeter for fifty cents a ride no i don't think so uh... yeah total ammo subject to a thirty nine thirty five cents around the still have in stock and that makes that the best buy on the page i would recommend wolf is right behind it dropped to thirty eight cents around uh... then river things jack right back up to all my god how much So that is again still the best choice in terms of for money spent. The 7.62x39 or 5.45x39, if you already have the rifles, I just keep plowing into buying that ammunition. If it was a choice, I'd hold back on my nines and the poor bastards in front of me are going to get shot more often with AK rounds. Why? Well, because it's cheaper. I can shoot you a lot with less money spent, and I'm actually hitting you with a bigger round. a better hotter round so that's that's a good thing I like that and it was the other way around before as you know what I've talked about this but we're not in that world right now what to disgusting to me is of all pistol rounds guys are the simplest to build handgun ammunition straight-case nine millimeter forty caliber uh... three five seven magma thirty eight special forty four special forty four some forty four magnum uh... take a bigger would may or is what it is if it's a straight case that is a cheap route to build and yet right now they're charging you twice the price of a baffled case rifle while now you tell me how that makes any sense and by the way they're pumpkin jump bullets there's no great all their work but it's the position bubble bubble but now these are ball round And don't you think that the smaller, like micro 55 grain or 62, 63 or 70 grain projectiles in the light rifle, don't you think they have to be a tad more precise simply because you're expecting to hit a target out to 3, 4 and 500 yards? Don't you think? I want you to consider that. The 9mm and .40 caliber and .45 are supposed to be what? Closed defense rounds. You're not going to be popping a target at 600 yards. the way you could with a uh... any of these rifle rounds were talking about four hundred five hundred six hundred yards and perforating the target quite no quite nicely when it gets there that's not happening with nine millimeter at those rages so again the math is a few and it has to be government pushing this it's not just the industry it's not just the market if this is they've been walked up to a they've been told this is what we need to do we need to put pressure on this we want to burn up burn the money that they have this way uh... secret weapons for silent wars and the industry because it's licensed will cooperate every time every time don't forget that don't they'll think for a minute anyway now red army thank you very much for you know julie there are red army is on the scroll down below same price uh... thirty five cents around uh... in the one thousand round cases hundred twenty two grain f m j So you've got the, it's a flavor choice. If you like Tula ammo, it's 35 cents a round. If you like the Red Army bulk, Red Army standard, it is 35 cents a round. So that's a good deal. That's a really, if I'm looking at every round on the shelf, it's like I said, if I were you, I'd be looking for an AK, best price for an SKS, best price. and buy the hell out of the AK-47 ammo. If you want a 74 if you already got one, if right now you have ARs and you've got sufficient combat ammo but you're still thinking you're short, but you have AKs, I would forget about buying any more AR-15 ammunition for the moment. I've been piling up these AK-47 ammo. You're able to put two rounds down for the price of one. That is superior fire and again work everybody deal if you don't believe in my idea of accuracy than a believe in the spray parade double magazine dot range well guess what i'd got to to write two magazines downrange for the price you're one now you think about that i can only have to play with the plan to mention in reality with some of the pistol rounds i can actually almost put three rounds of a k m o downrange for the party or one pistol route just which one probably go away when the man would your rifle meet the manually pistol the amount will your rifle will lose or forgive me will win every time the guy with the pistols will do but anyway uh... it's the idea that this is just a better choice and by the way forty caliber uh... you know what the cop shop have to be absorbing that because forty cal is not disappeared from the police inventory in fact it's still out there in force so the reason that you're seeing most of the forty caliber just back and out and disappeared most of a not getting to your market is because i am sure it's being prioritized to the enforcement arm and they're picking up pretty much most of the inventory prioritized out of the uh... factory before off the dock before it ever gets to any of the retail stores or anything like that because all these departments do realize their needs and while certainly don't really care too much about how much they spend because your tax money they're stealing to you know to spend on whatever the goodies they want to buy uh... they're still going to try to get a better bulk deal of i mean if they're smart or at least get a payoff from the ammunition company to buy their you know by the amos junk and that happens a lot to them if you're a big big big big customer you get some out of the special binder and depending on how much you buy you get some showing up in the driveway move special binder when you're talking big purchases okay That's just how the industries work. It's not just the arms industry, it's the medical industry, the drug dope, dope co-pushers, etc. Chemical industry is the same way. Anything that is volume perishable, the more you buy, the bigger the throw. So, 7.62x39, find an AK, it looks like again for the moment, the better priced AKs that I've seen so far, reasonably priced, and that should in theory still be in stock. or over at atlantic i don't know what the shipping is i don't know what your dealer is with your ffl because you still gotta get to an ffl dealer unless you've got well and be a unless atlantic firearms is in your backyard that you could drive right over to a mokay you still do the paperwork because these are paper guns uh... the big thing again with magazines don't go anything too exotic thirty round mags that's all you need all the polish ones are pretty decent and actually smattered around for a reasonable price there are some great to uh... a k bag not pretty but serviceable that would allow you to pile up some extras that are you know about officers when the time comes remember when you're in a a uh... exchange situation to be dropping them anyway uh... when that happens you'll recover them if you win if you don't you don't cry about it you're not gonna worry about it but your problem anymore not with not with this mortal coil so uh... the big thing there is also again remember your carry system is going to have to match up to make sure the whatever you're investing if you haven't purchased yet uh... not just every or any system is going to work you have to accommodate those a k forty seven mag so that needs to be part of your math formula what comes to look you know shopping around and which you can find that will make sense uh... mag pouches for the a k couple companies have always seem to have a little bit of a deal going on needles say in molly gary is like major surplus dot com major surplus dot com major surplus dot com all they've got a wide range of a kia format mag pouches that'll work with more one mag but the idea is that they are specifically a k forty seven built and they are molly gear they do offer them in a number of different color schemes depending upon what your unit standard is and they seem to have them consistently in stock so that is another another part of the putting the combat battle kit together they what it is weapons wednesday edward uh... bottom of the hour break here if we could only because we gotta make sure we keep tradition up for everybody out there it is weapons wednesday and i'm not excited i mean there's stuff out there but i'm not excited with most of what we're saying and of course forty caliber like said forty five a c p eighty cents around mac tech ball ammunition nothing fancy uh... problem again what's reloadable semi-wad cutter uh... but the uh... problem again to a k around for the price of one and still some pennies left over i do you like that one well what what did you believe that was gonna happen Well, it actually did years ago, but it was the Chinese import stuff, not the Russian. So, oh no, there's... No, really, really not going to be too excited there. Next, somebody was asking, what about long longer-barrel A case? Well, there's nothing out there I've seen. If there are any RPK kits that were put together, guys, they're charging arm, leg, and your first born male child. So in the past while that was a good choice to come up with a build up like a baby dragon off, not a real dragon off, but it looked cool. You can make it look really impressive. And this very serviceable gun. If you can get more barrel, you get more energy out of that round no matter what it is. And the RPK type of length barrels would be a good option, but there's nothing that I've seen out there that isn't now being perceived as that classic uh... in brackets uh... category attached to it now which is make a did its value is a affordable battle rifle that you can bring a drag off the shelf and you're right on dollar road with a not cry about uh... twelve hundred fourteen hundred sixteen hundred dollars for the rpk length barrels and uh... nothing really that is built is in what we would consider the affordable range for the reasonably affordable range uh... another thing about the uh... a case cleaning kits are readily available out there still in fact that's one of the few things that there's another wave of right now that are coming into the country and uh... it's apparently the bargain the south south eastern european surplus now not as cheap as back of the day with the east german or the polish or the check when the stuff came out in force uh... What's interesting is that again the cleaning kits and the slings are correct though. So if you're looking for a reasonable price and you want to put a few extras especially with cleaning kits, cleaning kits are one of those things that everybody forgets are supposed to wear out. The cleaning kit is always made of softer material than the weapons. because you don't want the weapon to wear down you'd rather have the five-and-dime part items wear down right yeah see how that works so again the cleaning kits are well made uh... let's see gun parts corp has some right now I know I just looked at him last night also let's see I believe Coleman's dot com has some reasonably priced units and in addition to that you've also got j g sales which may or may not have much luck in stock now they've got a lot of people who have not been re uh... investing in the uh... the uh... surplus used i have to get some really good bulk purchases that he did but those seem to be you know again head into the tail lights you know what they're they're behind it now but go check j g sales off could you never know what i know they do have some of the swings that everybody's been wanting to put the a the correct playing on the weapon uh... and they don't want anything too fancy just a basic carry slash you know over the shoulder swing uh... understandable if you want a classic design right as we go uh... the big thing about that is uh... with the a k is that are presently out there if you're going with the basic rifle design of the word is in many cases now rather the surplus brand new wood uh... that's just the nature of the beast of the way things have been going with the uh... there we go come on with the uh... a case and of course the polymers take over because the word is become classic so they're trying to find a more affordable solution uh... off-the-shelf plus the polymers of course are affected by the weather is as readily anyway now if you were going to go over to the wannick in through me another all they do have an rp you know exactly what i said now if you're what we go to atlantic and look at all the different a k that they have you'll see what i'm talking about remaining an rp k rifle battlefield pickup style in other words used parts uh... one thousand four hundred dollars a unit now this does come with a correct bipod it is the standard lines but it's fourteen hundred dollars or if you were looking to build or put a russian type squad got into the team that is another way to have the correct form of weapon but still it's not my automatic and so for the price you do get more barrel i do like that idea uh... there's this is also true of several of the other uh... porter a case that are out there but there again fifteen hundred sixteen hundred uh... the palmetto guns at uh... well there is one cheaper that i just discovered here but let me point this out these are century rifles okay when many people standing there hear the word century the cringe sometimes and understandably so but they do have a couple of field grade uh... a k forty seven century arms for seven hundred dollars apiece over the same government were five and sixty five a piece not too long ago but then again so was everything else cheaper in this case uh... these are uh... 39 v2 ak-47 rifle by century arms hundred-percent american-made he he called american-made uh... now with new size side rail of let's see click image for details course i will but uh... the woodstock or the polymer stock of the same price of the same rifle one woodwood one one plastic on who is asking which would you go with i go to work I like just the wood is in more came mostly again at sea coloration and camouflage but the wood holds up well on the AK side you can break the beaver board stock if you impact hard on a picture that with the air to you know you bend the tube and not very often but again not very often will you break the AK a cable stock either i do have a box full of them but i've collected from other people who broke them and i've always kept them because you never don't want to make a kitty stock or i want to make a short rifle stock for a cake and their laminated so they're you know the pretty good word so i do is clean everything up grind everything back re-sculpt it and when you insert the stock you're going to lose uh... about three four inches of but stock but that's not a bad package it's not a folder but it's the next best thing uh... kind of like the same thing we're doing with the twelve-gauge shotguns back in the nineties became in vote to uh... knocked out the stock by two or three inches but leave the stock on don't go to a pistol grip just make it a very short but stock by comparison and that's not a bad idea another thing uh... again unfortunately a lot of century a case of them the before the price of the palmetto appears to be probably the best choice being mostly a merit well mostly hundred percent american parts of the century guns are supposed to be american parts so the differences hundred dollars pomelo might actually have the the up on that one so seven hundred uh... what uh... seven hundred fifty dollars will get you an a k right now uh... serviceable a k and then ammunition is where you're really going to save and jump ahead of everybody when you're trying to outfit but that's a personal flavor thing and i can't emphasize enough that uh... again uh... if it was a choice i do the palmetto's first uh... in fact we have them in yelkin others one other option here and i've seen this company before and i know guys who have the guns here with the doctor's crew uh... no uh... if you ever get a chance the uh... real wryly defense are i l e y rally defense m p tactical rifles wryly defense they do make regular a case they make a standard model it might even be in stock they do run a little bit more help stock either well well i guess you just look at the pre pictures anyway those rifles are that got pretty good right ups with that our people are fear of uh... influence the people that we know uh... so they're not a bad firearm their average i mean into the words are fit finishes correct which should be for a for the eight k all we've had no problems with operations no parts breakage and the big thing is that pretty much every magazine goes in that magazine well and it works in fact with those really wiley defense guns the regular polish a k mags work really well and they've had a real very good success with them. Not everybody likes the Polish mags, but that's because they don't know what needs to be done with the mainspring. And we've propped that up on the air before. So if you are looking for a solution that is still the best choice and no, I would not spend $2,000 to $3,000 on a remaining copy of the PSL 54. I like the rifle. And when we were getting them for $375 apiece, I like that rifle a lot. But now that that rifle is a $2,200 gun, for the main weapon uh... it's nice very fine fire but uh... again uh... palmetto stearm read the paul but i'll care very weapons need to be the by would pay for stories and then the uh... next option nine in terms of the mid lowest range would be the century apart price-wise even there you're not saving that much it is a hundred dollars and a hundred dollars is a big chunk towards the uh... ammunition i'd understand that so again though am i excited about century firearms well their american stuff so far has been working uh... some people just don't like a entry in the cabinet had a bad taste for the because that your is notorious for being a roller coaster in reliability and assembly uh... that's on the first person would tell you about that no reason dealing with them for thirty years forty years nonstop and it's whatever for whatever reason once they got into this whether or not they were doing it intentionally cuz again uh... well the guy was in charge of uh... well that i knew personally that was in charge of i-core intelligence i was buying uh... years ago back in the seventies up i bought a century uh... international arms uh... or or for the number five jungle carping that have been imported by century and we brought it ahead of the office and you know century all you mean run a revolution and like i was like yeah well we were by selling trade god we collect guns from the vc and we collect all pile up so of the century get the guns we wanted because we're outfitting the uh... force popular or whatever and or the local defense forces so we trade for the weapons we wanted and it was milk bottle collection agency in other words you collect all the junk off the battlefield take it over make sure to the deuce national count it up you up find out what the value is trade for the stuff you want they show up with trucks with the other stuff which you probably told from somebody else down the road and uh... everybody happy so century of an always had the notoriety for being the you go for so close unless they want to be and i personally believe that a lot of their supposedly booboos or not accidentally work intentional don't ever make that mistake of it was a movie the industry knows better okay so what stuff is done most of it is intentional sabotage and logic is that you know especially with the uh... you know glory it being stuck on the retail uh... provider they do that of course even the retail provide buyer beware supposed to be paying attention but there are some really unique things over the years happened with century weapons that just like why You look at it, you go, no, you couldn't have made that mistake coming out of the factory. You couldn't. If you did that, it was done intentionally, it was not done accidentally. And that's consistent with them trying to create a condition where you spent resources, you end up with a weapon that may not be reliable, etc., and then of course at a time when we were headed towards war. 19 late 19 1980s early 1990s that window with some of the AKs that were produced them in the 90 91 on window all man on the one hand there were some great phenomenal options and then in the same breath there was oh my god what the hell is that so just a heads up all the washer guns the tinny and far less a weapon than the Chinese in some ways but the washer tens work quite well and we still kept those pretty much an inventory without any complications so again don't be surprised uh... some things worked out better i'm sure they wanted and then uh... as far as repair and maintenance some of the biggest problems and whether it happened with century in the long haul has been barrel set uh... the alignment with the uh... the gas system mail the gas system is in place but the front-side for instance was not properly posted uh... and even adjusting the flight full to the left or to the right still not being able to bring the the weapon into proper zero i mean with the quick stream readjustment of the only option being knocking out the parents pulling the front side off uh... and that really in introducing it but back to the get farther from the uh... front of the uh... muscle so that you could repented at the proper twelve o'clock station that was a very common problem with century a case You can't tell me that was accidental because people who were putting the guns together actually knew what they were doing. So they knew what they were doing when they were fiddle farting around and doing that with the guns. Now the only good thing about that with the AK-47 front sight is, really, well it does is that A-frame holds that front sight and that's it. The cool thing is that it really wasn't a big deal if you were going to nothing but optics to A, possibly just make that whole front A-frame disappear. Some people did that. uh... the other is of course like it that resetting that front site and it's better than trying to fight day after day or try to figure out how to you know read just that particular assembly the other thing to remember is that you know you might you if you back to that the uh... front site on the a k you're not really going to affect anything having to do with the weapon you're going to put another given to the barrel because you're going to bear your use the cross pin lock it out of the barrel but uh... not a problem uh... and again better that than bawling or a guest meeting with the gun the one thing that we did with those is something i mentioned the beginning of the power which had to do with uh... patter fire or suppression fire if it's a close enough put a golf balling point on the roof put a drum on the gun that fits sloppy and use it as a squad automatic weapon doesn't it's not supposed to be pinpoint accurate suppose greater color destruction but when you do that it really matters with the enemy's head because they produced a weapon that intentionally was supposed to be a you know malfunction junction and you're turning around and making it work uh... within the within the parameters of you know the mission you're giving it and that the case as a squad god but it's not that much not a big idea about a big deal fact but i don't know if i round drum on it uh... put a fixed bipod on the front uh... but that in point out the roof and pop up a pop up up up up up up up up purple purple and other words use it as a suppression fire weapon and not a great prayer that i'll show report on all right well no no no no use it as a squad gun and you know add that if you would just do it to make it work better for you uh... this is another issue with regard to some of the weapons that have been put together the old weapons were put together with older barrels barrels were serviceable but the barrel eventually are going to get tired with you guys you know to bring a brain with a lot of ammunition as some of you guys did with the animal was cheap wearing the weapon down uh... eventually you are going to have to do a better change but if it looks like that weapon is not keeping the uh... you know point accuracy that you had before consider designating it a squad got in lieu of automatic fire or a conventional automatic fire a quick trigger finger stability with a again with a forward fixed bipod attached to the barrel and using the weapon appropriately to suppress an area so that the rest of the guys with scopes or with a more accurate weapon can fix points on target, you know, crosshairs on target or barley corn post and put the target down. While you're keeping them busy, the other guys are finishing the project, so to speak. They're hitting what you were trying to suppress, whether they're shucking and jiving and trying to move to desperately get out of your way. so anyway the lennick firearms take a look at the inventory they have the palmetto guns are american made palmetto sierra marie firearms there are a number of subcontractors of those parts i'm very familiar with going on with that now one other option is royal tiger uh... and all i know some of you hate royal tiger or whatever it is a company i know the experience of you have had uh... what royal tiger uh... has done a really good job of uh... putting all the technology out there at different times and some people don't like that because they didn't get a chunk of the business so there's a lot of there's a lot of strange animosity you'll see the pop-ups pops up especially the social media now end of the business which is new but in the past it would just be great being back and forth in the very narrow circles of firearms uh... ffl holders or guys that were you know aficionados and entrepreneurs of firearms uh... royal tiger imports royal tiger imports dot com again w w w dot royal tiger imports dot com and uh... every once in a while they do have for the have had the s k s is coming in and since they've had this connection with northern africa for a bit they are still bringing in some more they still have some of the uh... weapons that they had purchased and brought in as a bulk, uh, cure and relic collection, uh, Enfields, Carconos, etc., etc. But, uh, there are a number of other arms that they carry, and they do AR-15s also. You know, what they have in stock right now, I'm looking right now to see if we have an AK of any kind. They have a number of ARs, they do have a number of ARs that are out of stock, and, nope, it doesn't look like we are in luck. global video is some of the more unique calibers available one of the uh... it might say that they've got like some of the balcony rounds etcetera in the air platform another thing also because we would know if it felt well yet some of these weapons do not require that i felt unfortunately those weapons used to be very very cheap now if they don't require an ffl they are not cheap okay it's just what's going on so if you look through uh... if you go through the inventory for royal tiger imports all there are some of the uh... for instance the uh... told me what do we have the switch mit rubin knockoffs variations on that they may have those now they are out of stock on the s casters that was really why i want to receive maybe if we would be lucky But it looks like that's about it. So there are a number of other no FFL Manually operated guns the virtually rifles Of course the biggest promise some of those are post 98, but if they're the pre 98 virtually There is still built in 6.5 Carcano and they do have those in stock but let's see if it requires an FFL. They're a beast gun size-wise if you're asking. If you want to take a look, there are videos to help you understand. Uncle Mark doesn't even have to try to describe it on the air. If you go to Royal Tiger imports, whatever weapon you tag, most of them he's done videos on now. So you actually have an informational base that you can work with there. The pre-98 guns are interesting. The question is whether or not It's worth the three four five hundred dollars you're spending on a weapon You're certainly not going to have any paperwork on it per se per se but It's a matter of are you willing to develop your skills with the ammunition that's going to be required for the weapon because some of them do require special we don't reloading dies to get the job done because they are unique chamberings and That's one of the things that right now. They're slow on production or care production ketchup uh... in the uh... die industry right now from that end we're not seeing them prioritizing the unique caliber is so what the shoe custom order the dyes which you can do with our cbs and with lee uh... then you're going to have to wait till they get around to where you find something used at the gun shows might be walking through which would work okay promise again well what's left out there uh... yet somebody pointing out there's some car colors are for two hundred fifty dollars again stripper clips of the first issue the d clip type uh... uh... car carlle manlincher to make it a manlincher is just purely just the the stripper clips that are required for the uh... car carl There are some out there, but they're outrageously priced. You might remember AIM surplus had some ammunition for the Carcano lasted about a day, and the reason is because of these carbines that are out there, these reasonably priced rifles that are still out there in force. The Model 1891, which is what Randy's asking about, it's a good firearm. Actually, we've had a couple of those hanging around, or dozens of them hanging around at different times, but the Model 91 is a carbine. shorter than the car ninety eight uh... it's a little lighter rifle fairly thin by comparison really does a good stature car being to carry uh... it's a good weapon to have uh... tucked away in places doesn't take up much space it is a five-round magazine with one in the two would you load of man uh... a car carlos stripper clip there are six rounds in it so automatically you've loaded the magazine to capacity you close the ball and now you have a chain we have a round chamber and five rounds in reserve but you always have a six-round stripper because you don't want things flopping around inside the stripper clip so you do not reintroduce ammunition until you have a expanded The five rounds in the magazine, the stripper drops out the magazine well base, or you push it out with the next stripper clip, and the next six rounds are introduced into the weapon. That is the unique part about the 6.5 Carcano slash the 7.35 Carcano. They're both the same basic rifle. Don't think they do one up with the bore size. The case is the same length, the chambering obviously, the barrel diameter is different. six point five millimeter versus seven point three five millimeter and i don't see any of the seven point three five in stock here but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a uh... again to let even more of a bastard ground in the uh... other calibers that we're talking about uh... by have a part of the ammunition and we have a few of the seven point three five stuck away all but that's because back in the day forty years ago the ammunition was actually original italian laying around so it's just not out there now like it was unless you catch a state sale or something like that anyway well that's royal tiger imports dot com go check them out see what they have available and uh... again the pollution i think still is the a k forty seven round almost to the top subject to buy thirty nine is the most affordable uh... but your go two years ago was different uh... you know five years ago it was different and it was a bit of a company just told me to remember people said the same thing today and a nine millimeter was so cheap I didn't think I needed to buy any more than I already did and it's like yep and now you wish you bought a lot more so that's expected that's just be it is not a bad ridiculing because yes it was cheap but they want to keep that's when you buy it and impresses the market that way because what it does it'll help to pull back the interest on the others that are a little pricey maybe we'll get some softening there probably not But if we do, it'll be because you refocused on the other part of the industry where the prices are more reasonable. And that's what we do with ammunition for strategic and tactical reserve. We're looking for the best price, most bang for the buck. And 7.62x39 for the moment is it, period. It outclasses everything else price-wise. And in fact, sadly enough, EAT 380 Auto, 9mm, 40 smith and wesson 45 acp 38 special 357 magnum all of those are more expensive than a 762 by 39 ball rifle round right now that's ridiculous there's no way that that truly should be acceptable but it's where the world is so we're going to work on that accordingly let's let's sculpt our purchasing accordingly we're at the top should be here in the music because we got to take a break here for all of you out there and a reminder to be We are on the march, both day and night. You know the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny not to hunt protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless. People that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones. We're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. What do we do? Politicians. No. Okay. Just get any blunt objects together, alright? If you get cornered, bash them in the head. That seems to work out. Kick together, stay sharp, and follow me. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. 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, speaking low to me, he said. We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. 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 blessed. 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, that your freedom will be bright, as Iowoki vanished in the midst of 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 and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second hour of the afternoon in intelligence report time, our court game. one day closer to victory for all our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines of occupied territories southwest east and northeast and central ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on liberty tree radio dot four m g dot com liberty tree radio on satellite and we are on a payment of a micro station the bb bay station and UltraNet hallmark in Golden Spike Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there, Lower 49 including the great state of Jefferson along with CONUS, the outlying territories and the clock is six oh nine p m eastern standard time weapons wednesday nineteenth of may it is the thirteen pure open baby in the socialist and soviet socialist occupation of um... maricot with the k two thousand and twenty one older calendar two thousand twenty one battle for the republic dance of swords what the battle again anyway all of do this uh... not a surprise Missouri's Second Amendment Preservation Act will find state and local police. Uh, the Nillelworth Sanctuary, this is the next step, resolution slash resolve acts, uh, actions against, uh, anybody trying to cooperate with the, uh, gun grabbers. Uh, it's over at Guns and Gadgets. And if we could, let's go ahead and plug this in. It's only five minutes and 22 seconds long. but this is now adding missouri to the list which by the way i think missouri already is in the uh... bracket on on the resolution issue but what this is doing is this is uh... adding keep the particular aspect of the uh... interaction especially with the money is involved with local and county police uh... and state police versus the fed So over at Guns and Gadgets, Missouri Second Amendment Preservation Act will find state and local police. And this is posted as of today, the 19th of May. It is 2021. There's 19,000 plus hits on it. Please give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the Guns and Gadgets channel. And hopefully we can bring that up and we will play that in a minute here, I think. We'll see what happens. and uh... in the process uh... also shared this which by the way every time i tell you to do that i have to go do it myself because after all i have to be high to read it and big wonk punk etcetera etcetera etcetera and uh... here we go and that's done also new one talk i haven't tried really posting much on that talk p l k with uh... circle with uh... you know a word circle in it with an arrow like it's a cartoon don't know will find out i just posted on that one not last night and i don't know what kind of response we're going to be without her for the restrictions it could be a total politically correct situation if it is all well all shut it down and ignore it for that way forward it's just like first book or with you know uh... uh... twitter you know what twitter her don't do twitter have a done for a very long time but it's because we do is happening and will be hold it they will happen exactly as expected but We weren't really complaining about that because who misses it? Well, we don't. Let's see, next on the list here. Okay, I don't want to get into... Okay, let's do this. There's a couple of things we gotta wait on. The one subject somebody's just asking about here, I know we sent an email. uh... working on the particulars i'd like to have named no daytime place goes there's a bunch of actions that the uh... bad guys have been kind of stopped in at the state levels even here in michigan and the michigan uh... pro-gun groups actually have got some pretty good write-ups i have a bad that chance to pull all of them up here this uh... not today but uh... every time that they've tried to get something going uh... the locals don't want to cooperate for the most part the county's have no interest and the state police of course will they know that they're not going to get much of any support from the counties of the townships others only a handful of prostitutes and whores out there that we'd be doing that which is kind of like what we're seeing with the stuff going on tomorrow here in this area What's going to be fascinating about this is the state police, of course, the SR, in the Michigan State Police, like all state police forces, there is a core group that are their murders slash hit men. In that group are they the ones who will do the political hack, you know, executions even of their own people. They've done it before. We've documented it well. And Michigan State Police is notorious with the SRT is where those characters are. Now, that's a very small group of people, and they're grossly outnumbered by pretty much everybody who now at the county, township, state level, local level, know who they are. And they just do the old bobblehead routine like let them feel good while they're standing around, but everybody's already decided what's going to have to be done when the time comes. So the feds are in the same boat now, and in both cases, they're grossly outnumbered. They're grossly outnumbered between the local and township and city and village police that are, when I say city, it can be small. City doesn't have to be a city the size of Detroit. A lot of places have decided to call themselves cities when they had no business doing so. They were a village or a town and that's about it and still are. But that division in and of itself creates a big stumbling block because when they try to come in and operate if anybody identifies any activity not only will it probably passed on to the internal mechanism of the government to stop what's going on or to preventing interactivity But it also means there's another group of people in uniform, as I told you before, a year ago, who are willing to step up and participate with the rest of the population in waging war against the state and the Fed, mostly the Fed, if they start to, you know, go stupid. And again, remember, think, a year and a quarter ago, go back a year and a quarter ago to the sanctuary city movement and where everything was going before the biological weapons, the fake biological weapons attack, the woo-hoo slash coronavirus scam. And if it weren't for that, what was happening under Trump in spite of Trump betraying gun owners is that the gun owners were getting together and were preparing to deal with the very problem that's now before you. only were already way in advance on it think about this uh... that was all under trumpet when this was going on but it's now perfectly formed with the by night flash or bomb our administration when you know the the the petal meat puppets knipper is being run by obama and the uh... north side jewish mafia out of chicago and other locations but uh... they're not able to move in this freely as of course was you know in the big plan and what's fascinating is as these other states mobilize the way that they are this is going to pare down yet again and create very narrow kill shoots or channel when things escalate and that is the only way to describe it you're going to be given to be a kill shoot people are going to know that well they're coming out somebody's gonna call up bob bob gonna call up fred fred's gonna call up uh... the you know people that he knows better local or statewide and an escalation is inevitable because of this is not a maybe not a kind of not a sort of we're now right back to where we were on track for fourteen months ago fifteen months ago we're exactly where we were with everybody now on the same page and pretty well out of the corona beer virus fog the stupid is gone from anybody who was kind of killed jiggle by that and everybody else who was not fooled is already up to speed and way beyond the deal the the lower standard so they've got a problem on their hands now far as whether or not the uh... and how many of the states are how many of the mostly but there's no because of course the you know state police or locals can be find a for whatever uh... will come by the bullet so to speak and accept the quote-unquote fine because they want to go try to look for a purpose of the fed well there's a lot of people i could told you the idiots dick township people with the ninety eight-cent uh... or eighty-nine that uh... bangladesh made a fb i have to do it even pretty straight they actually were so crappy but they were they weren't the brighter they were actually just stamped uh... they were they were well liquid camp f b i and they look like they were actually a little they look like they were a joke at what everybody was thinking initially like it was some kind of might maybe a movie or something just like everybody else that the groupiness level of the all of the the junior gmail wannabe regalia for instance it probably at the epitome of the overall system you know top dollar was probably spent for each of those stupid have a guarantee it is the blossom steve said yeah i wish it might cause the need got the fbi hat we can hand them out to the schmuck the schmuck will bam and that we'll feel feel feel feel and no problem and they'll only be twenty nine ninety five i had now for that you should have gotten embroidery with a little bit of silver in it but now instead you got this really crappy eighty nine cent bangladesh of home if home insert uh... kind of look at weird hackers not quite the proper you know proper format the baseball kind of cap and did not even print straight and the printing is watch you know sometimes the paint kind of the oldies the the dot the ink kind of you know blocks in the spot if you're not paying attention could you work not being careful that all of the more but that's a representation of the kind of you know critter that what the other side critter that they're hoping they can last new and pull into the fold to help them to get away with garbage. Of course, the local takes the hit. The feds, all they have to do is say, well, we didn't know. The locals went along with it. It's not my fault. They should have known better. And of course, the feds will never be properly chastised unless they're pinned on the ground and shot. Now, if they're pinned on the ground and shot, all the rest of the discussion about the fines and fees is going to be kind of moot. And it likely is not, as we pointed out, once these benchmarks are in place, it is more likely that a fire or a conventional arms exchange is going to take place with no discussion about fines and fees. It's just that simple because people are looking for this. That's just how it works, okay? So anyway, Missouri Second Amendment Preservation Act will find local or for fine state and local police and that's over at Guns and Gadgets. It's dated May 19th, 2021 and it is of course posted on the Guns and Gadgets channel. I want to make sure we got that one up there. Next, let's see what else we have here. We'll see what happens. discussed that uh... as a second amendment sanctuary is in motion and needles of sales who was south carolina if it happens it happens if it doesn't um... they'll get a metal that breath first of all them i would point out something else about texas who took the guns away from the cobwebs how what what where is it that the gun grab took place in the first place in in texas that took the right to carry away Well, that was the move in limiting liberal Bush types that came in from the East Coast and all of a sudden started doing their leftist panty waste East Coast crap down in Texas. That's who. How did Texas end up with this leftist legislation on the books in the first place while the oil money move in? just like you're seeing the california and their ball boy we're gonna have the california silicon valley moving on the now are you mean the people that crap in california to the point where they've made it a communist regime another that grab pick a pick themselves up out of the best pool drop themselves in your backyard in texas and piss all over thing the same way they did in california and make it a communist cesspool there is that something to brag about i don't think so And we know that the social media clique and all these tech people were the ones that are the problem in the first place who have been funding a Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and promoting the political correctness agenda. So they're the only thing we need to see without us, they were there, has to be shot. That's all that's going to fix that problem. Any other discussions, irrelevant. They just simply need to be gone. Moving somewhere else just means they're going to bring their BS to somebody else's backyard, which is exactly what has happened. and is happening in texas but not just in texas so anyway um... and this is a people think by the way a person so tasty we have a talk about much arizona there's always gone back and forth and back and forth and back and forth because the oil boy is play that state non-stop like a fiddle so they'll get a certain amount you know they'll get mister tomorrow recovery and then all of a sudden they're back to being hyper leftist again in a certain amount of recovery and then they're back to being hyper leftist again uh... what a surprise so again i'm not the holding my breath with regard to result of a world will be how that move the time around for that this point the cycle it's not a matter of if it's going to just go back to being hyper leftist again it's just a one and that's just the way that the brain knockers of the playing the population there for a very very very very very long time uh... let's see what's next okay now uh... another thing I had a couple of questions about lubricants and also cleaning solvents. And there are a bunch of personal cleaning solvent formulas that are out there. Now, I'm going to remind you of something. Do not consider that a generic one solution fits all answer because one of the things to remember about a lot of the formulas that were built or that have been built are for dealing with not so much your average commercial arm but miss especially the a k is not a case is around there because corrosive ammunition is been available uh... in the first wave of chinese stuff that came in remember we had both corrosive and non corrosive and there was still a holdover of corrosive ammunition coming in at the early early stages of the fall wall that uh... created a lot of issues with keeping the weapons you know neutralizing the uh... the uh... oxidants and keeping the weapons clean and serviceable. So a lot of the formulas, especially the ammoniated formulas, certainly work, but understand they're not necessary for all of the different types of carbon issues that you're going to be dealing with. If you have a mercuric primer issue, which is where you have the problem with the oxidation issue with corrosive ammunition, basically, although some of the powders are unique too, The big thing here is that whatever you're going to be using, make sure that you A, confirm what's the ammunition that's being used, and then sculpt the cleaning solvent that you're going to use based on the type of ammunition that's dominant within your inventory. Now, I'm going to tell you something. You'd be surprised how much corrosive ammunition is actually out there. uh... a lot of people bought comage pallets and pallets of the uh... you go slobby in which came both ways corrosive and non-corrosive in the subject to buy thirty nine and can't have been here now here's one thing to remember a lot of european as an a k there are a lot all that right brush chrome off in it so the cornea of of it was a an accommodation to help deal with uh... what combination of lack of maintenance and the corrosive ammunition issues. That's why you have the chrome chamber, chrome barrel internally with a lot of the AKs and SKSs. The Chinese, even to a degree, did that, but they built them both ways also. They built them with or without chrome bore. Same is true with the Eastern European SKSs. Remember, there are several that are standard carbon bore. They're not chrome bore. So, this is where you need to check your weapon, confirm what it is that you've got, and then tailor your cleaning solvent needs to that particular system for the time being. Now, again, we are eventually going to shoot up pretty much everything that's left in the way of corrosive ammunition, and we're not going to see that for a bit. We'll still probably be building mercuric primers down the road in the later phase of production because they are easier to produce in several ways and more reliable, especially under adverse conditions. And if you're building a more crude or using a more crude or building process for ammunition, then the advantage of the mercuric primer, the corrosive primer, is obvious. It's not your... It does create other issues, but remember also with regard to military arms, it was expected that you were going to see a certain amount of degradation over a set number of thousands, tens of thousands, or a hundred thousand rounds, and or lifespan of the weapon time in service. In other words, two years, two and a half years. Needless to say, a lot of weapons lasted a lot longer than that, and some of you are carrying weapons that were built 70 years ago in World War II, and they're still just as viable today as they were 70 years ago. So they don't just fold up, wrinkle, and disintegrate and disappear. It's not how it works. Maintenance is the most important aspect, which is why the bore cleaner issue is so significant from our end. Okay? Just something to think about. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance and you want to make sure you have the right tools for the right job Now another thing I mentioned was you know washing and scrubbing which by the way if you've had black powder guns, you know about that Cleaning up the weapon, you know, and we get neutralizing the oxidants and then reintroducing lubricants to the metals after you've done a good scrub, you know clean up and then you can be also a combination of You know the old soap and water routine and then still using a bore cleaner And then, after proper drying and doing maintenance, reintroducing a lubricant to the metals to ensure that you have an oxygen barrier. That's what you're doing when you're adding lubricants. The oil is permeating the crystalline structure of the metal, and it is preventing oxygen from making contact, and therefore oxidizing the metal. Okay, very, very important. We want to make sure we do that first time every time. Okay. Oh, let's see. Ooh. interesting uh... table where at the bottom almost an edward traditional weapons wednesday bottom of the hour break would be good so for everybody out there again remember that uh... we do have a quarter-time it's wednesday i was hoping to be done starting monday on this but will will probably clarify that tonight at eight o'clock and permitted clock on will be accumulating uh... the uh... numbers so that we can have progressively have a series of promotional drawings for liberty tree radio we've got all kinds of goodies piled up and i've already got separated box to ready to go i think you're all going to like the uh... pocket knife uh... night that we picked up a dot fancy but i've been trying to find a working blade and it is harder than hell right now There's twitchy blades slash switch blades all over the place coming in. Spring assist blades, there are all kinds of those coming in. I already mentioned that you got brass knuckles coming in. Some of them aren't brass, so I wouldn't hit somebody with them unless you figure you're going to lose that and some of the skin on your hand. But those are out there, but as far as a traditional emergency slash safety, for instance, seat belt cutter, window breaker with a decent chisel blade. uh... you know standard blade in a regular you know folder uh... this companies i've dealt with for decades not with it have any in stock not the wholesalers and it is not like they can all mark their order from overseas no they can't the production isn't even taking place right now which is rather fascinating or talk to about this so the life that i found was in that niche for what i wanted not to make tonight but a nice little utility knife and there's a couple of other really cool universal tools and such a plus uh... uh... tactical care and a few past and some other neat things so that'll will be part of the drawings when the time comes here shortly they're already boxed up got everything sorted where we want it and then we're going to go to town and we're going to tell many of you become a lucky winner now actually you have to get them we've had your gift back and some will get a better gift others will we're taking our chances of the fact So anyway, we are at the bottom of the hour. We should have the bottom of the hour break. And that would be the traditional, uh oh, oh, thank you, uh, oh, John in Illinois. Yeah, the bizarre lead ribbon slug. Okay, lead ribbon slug. I don't know what that would do to somebody, but I just got the funny feeling that that would be a horrific thing to be hit with. lead ribbon rolled up to 12 gauge to fit inside a shell and then fired out of a standard 20 inch tube. If that hit somebody, well that would be weird to actually extract from somebody's corpse or from somebody's body as a wound, part of a wound cavity. Because it probably would progressively unroll inside a person. That is a fascinating, oh and I see, once again, once you people do this to me on the air, now I have to also share, but before I do that, I'm gonna make sure that I save because I can build that. Thank you for showing that to me, I appreciate that. Again, over at, okay, hold on, let me make sure I, before I do anything, I don't wanna say anything more until I make sure I save this. The bizarre lead ribbon slug dash, we test it. This is over at YouTube. Flandermau5. Tell Flanderm- Teo Flandermau5. That's the channel. T-A-O-F-L-E-D-E-R-M-A-U-S. Teo Flandermau5 is the channel, but it's the bizarre lead ribbon slug. We test it. Well, ballistic gelum would be best. A big five gallon bucket of just to be safe. Only because I'd like to visualize what that ribbon does when it hits. and how it works because I guarantee it would have bizarre, well, it created a bizarre wound channel to say the least. Let's see, and again that is over, somebody's going, hold on, that's over at YouTube, over on YouTube and then go to the bizarre lead ribbon slug dash, we have to get a chance again to share that, always share when you've got a chance to check out something cool like this, always share. and spread the wealth as they make sure that we give everybody opportunity to be fascinated by new ideas when they appear. Now the interesting thing is if I were to truly test this, and I'm looking to see what they're doing, they're chronographing it, okay, I'm not worried about that. They may be firing at a dummy, I don't really think that's the best choice, but again, where this would really work, if I go and pale, kind of like what the Slingshot channel has done, The five-gallon pail of ballistic gelatin pretty much represents the torso of a body. It's translucent, so you can see what the result is, and it really, really, really messes with things. So, definitely something that would be fun to do as far as being able to see what it does. As a matter of fact, yeah, okay. Thank you. Appreciate that. Great distraction. A little trick, by the way, now I just see the, well, I'm watching this and as it opens up in flight, oh, that's not good. Yeah, you have to watch the video if you want to appreciate watching this. However, I think what I would do, I would use a small rubber band around the lead tape and then I, what I would do, then when you fire it, it would hold together mostly. The rubber band would probably progressively back off in flight, but when it hits, you have the roll of lead tape, the roll of lead ribbon impacting and then shearing, which is really what you want to do. You want to try and keep, you know, what you want to do is keep most all of it together until it hits the target, and any dissipation of energy you want it to take place when it hits the target, at the target itself, not in flight. You don't want it to reduce velocities. A reduced velocity because it works like a sail, unfortunately. That's just the best way to describe it. Anyway, I'll see next. And again, that's over at YouTube, guys, for everybody that's wondering what we were talking about there. Okay, next. And again, we're at the bottom of the hour. If Ed could, bottom of the hour, traditional break would be great. Yeah, okay. I'm in a paper wrapper. I bet a paper wrap would work to hold it in during flight. Right, but there's a paper wrap would probably shear away in flight too. It's got to be something, in fact I was thinking, to hold the lead ribbon, you know, the other thing that might work best would be a bread tie, a wire bread tie. And the reason is that all you have to do is just... turn it enough so that it creates resistance to keep it together but when it impacts on the target the bread wrap would shear and would become part of the fragmentation which again every little bit helps and hurts which is what you want when you're looking at putting a real round down range like that but good point again paper wrap you might have to do two or three layers and uh... it would be what i'm impact with any kind of resistance the paper would not be effectively really a whole the uh... material as it expands on impact with whatever it is that you know muscle material clothing whatever it is that it hits first to help it to shear and you're looking at rolling up about four to five inches or six inches of lead ribbon to create a slug or could should say a flexible malleable slug that would be quite devastating say the least so that is definitely something that is unique thank you again appreciate our callers kind of bring some input there on that what do you think about this while i just told you now uh... another thing that uh... we've talked about before but we're looking at a couple full circle on this again to a shot shells about the front shotgun shells uh... you guys you do not have to have wads and in fact if you really want to create a scatter shell that's going to leave the end of the two but immediately open up you don't need to shorten the barrel on your gun what you need to do is know how to reload shotgun shells uh... there was a local mail here uh... last weekend and uh... they had a uh... shot shell reloader that went for uh... fifteen dollars Now it was a leap, but it was an older leap, so it was even actually I think a little girthier, but everything was there with it, as far as all the tools, parts, pieces, and assemblies, and both the shot and the powder reservoir were intact, everything was there. So a simple reloading press like that for shot shell is all that you need. uh... the differences when set of introducing a commercial modern butterfly type or flower type or this petals a flower type wad is you actually create calling type cardboard wads that uh... are simply at the base to hold the powder charge in place and to secure and create a separation and a push point for the led shop that you're using in the shell Now, you're not going to really cause any major issues with the gun except, yeah, you'll probably even get a little letting after a long, long time. But the big thing here is that we're by using just a series of cup, or you'll slash coin type, and they're not coin, I'm calling them coin, but they're paper or cardboard, mostly cardboard or cardstock. Those work really well. I've seen guys do them in aluminum. I've also seen them use other materials because that way the wad becomes part of the damage going down range. uh... if it's metal uh... but there are better than not even people other using punch out using a circular punch out they've used the weather as the uh... wad and then your shells go in the front if you need to make up volume wise because you got a watch here your if you would increase your your shop load you're obviously going to be reducing your velocity a little bit and you know what your cup pressure the chambers never really much of a problem shut shells but it's not still need to pay attention to The big thing here is that you can use sawdust or you can use plastic filings. Like if you got someplace that does polymer drilling, you take the material that's left over, it's like sawdust, only it's plastic. You can use that as a filler to actually ensure that even though you don't increase, say, the volume of the shot you can increase both the uh... the spacing uh... and volume off to the use of either sawdust which is sawdust is the one that's traditional goes back forever uh... but the plastic chip is available and it really is you know inexpensive slice slash free if you look around to see who's manufacturing what in your area you can make it yourself at home if you want to work you're already doing something like that but uh... once you've got it you still need a cap for the end of the shell another piece of leather or another piece of cardstock and that you make sure a security in place when you do the cramp and when you pull the trigger what's going to happen is the round is going to be the the the pellet is going to be pushed down the tube but the moment it leaves the end of the two guys it's spreading out so you don't have to pay any any i cut down that uh... twenty three twenty four-inch goner that twenty six inch tube in order for it to be a scattered up inside a house uh... in fact the biggest thing is you're going to be a significant spread you have to experiment to see what works best to keep the spread of the shop within a reasonable uh... you know fear of destruction and uh... that that's the only tune ability part at all has to do with a shell it has nothing to do with the gun the guy you know any of your longer barrel guns can do a very very fine job of uh... literally scatter gun defense is it's always called uh... what the important thing is understanding that the commercial shop wad its purpose is to keep the keep the uh... the uh... pellet together for a longer period of time and they are calculated to as the those little pedals open up with air resistance but it allows the shot to distribute and it still keeps it in a what is an effective code of destruction but at a greater or average engagement range for defense in a house you don't need that you don't even want it really because otherwise what you're doing it's not bad you're hitting somebody with a beanbag if you're within one room within a room and your mission was to you know if you you feel confident you're gonna bill keep the round on target then when you hit them with a seven-and-a-half or eight-shot or a nine-shot it's like a beanbag it's like a grainy slug because that wad is not going to open up that much it will but it's only got so many feet within a room to move and when that opens when it hits then just like we were talking about with this you know the lead tape trying to keep it together so we wait till it hits on target before it separates and opens up uh... the same would be true with uh... with regard to the appellate it contained and then what happens once it reaches imporad of the impact and resistance all that just spreads immediately it just uh... it's a of the malleable slug is the only way to describe it and all those little pellets are going to be stuck in somebody uh... number nine number seven a half or number eight you do realize that most of the pellets are never going to be pulled out of somebody's body if they survive It's just that's just not going to happen. There's no, nobody's going to take a set of forceps and track down every last little chunk of lead that you just put into somebody's body. It's not going to be possible. And remember, magnets don't do any good. Lead doesn't work that way, right? You know, you can have it on a wound channel or a wound open when you can hit it with a magnet. No, it'll pull the button. No, it won't. It's lead. So there's all kinds of things just like glass is a horrible horrible horrible way to work But you know it is a very effective anti-personnel technology Number one it's horrific with regard to making wounds number two it's impossible to find well you'll find it but it works through or works into uh... the wound channel in different ways if it's not discovered and the only thing you could do with the white people who are cringing right now who have had glass injuries what you have to do you have to take a probe and run that probe down and work down the wound channel and when what what the doctor is listening for feeling for is a pic pic pic on the end of his probe now what is prob gets down that wound channel then he takes the force up and the long probe and long probe for support long long cut long uh... long bill uh... he gets down in there and he has to open up the wound channel with the with the uh... forcep and then he has to aggressively make contact with whatever it is that the probe is touched and then he has to work it back down the wound channel but before he does that he needs to line up that chunk of glass so that it's shielded by the forceps blade, the forceps clamps so it doesn't shear or cause more damage on the way out. Oh yeah! And imagine that times how many different ways you could put glass shards into a shotgun shell. That's another one that's pretty horrific like I said in Mean. but you know what you didn't pick your house up and put a bad out I run it down the road you got a bunch of jackasses in government think they're gonna come down confiscate guns and they're gonna get every imaginable form of delivery of them that you can imagine that you that could be perceived to be created just gonna happen and of course there is always broken pieces of pottery from pointers right or everything and anything work in a shot shell in fact i'd like arcane load you could do a little bit of safety class uh... you could use number eight number nine uh... you know palio may be chopped up fill in the spaces and then uh... like is it chunks of shards of glass shards of pottery chunks of uh... small chunks of brass grooves and not in fact if it's a of of bowl and it's tiny enough take uh... take a uh... uh... for the day cutters and chop them into like little six-million sixteen thirty ten she wrote little chunks of threaded stock and put those in there all through the thing shake it all up make a mix oh yeah when they get here with that won't be sure what you're looking for but you know there's a whole hell of a lot of it in there in fact it'll it'll shred tearful spent with new latest what will do which is exactly what our plan is so again uh... and one of the things remember that a lot of the stuff will pass through body armor uh... glass is something sharded glass uh... it's like a needle working through the grain of the uh... of the clock of the of the kevlar in fact i will remind you again guys that there's a couple things that years ago they would not guarantee against uh... in terms of personal defense one was an item pick Yeah, with original body armor, the ice pick will, in fact, with the very, very, very long, long, long, fine spike blade, will line up and go through the weave quite efficiently like a needle. And once it gets through the layers, well, you're the soft, chewy stuff underneath. And guess what? It was very effective. Ice picks were very popular in the mob for the longest time and for other people, too. The other one was crossbow bolts. because the crop or has you know you can get a two hundred three hundred four hundred pound prodd crossbow and uh... you can perforate go through kevlar quite nicely now this is something that is in line with the discussion years ago with special forces about the use of uh... recurve bows in vietnam and if you're curious there's a bunch of uh... there are videos all this practice that were done by the government uh... for uh... training purposes and explains the value and use of the bowl and arrow uh... in the unconventional warfare operations and the penetration capabilities which is something that again isn't talked about all of the difference between a re a recurve conventional poll on a day a uh... crossbow at the list of play as we know right now We have some very, very, very new and sophisticated compound crossbows that are compact and monsters in terms of energy. So there again, that's one of those things where you could pin a person literally right in there inside their body armor. It wouldn't probably penetrate the second tier, in other words, the back. If you were to shoot somebody and you shot them in the back, it'll go through that panel of Kevlar, that body armor. uh... here's the thing there's not enough energy left it probably wouldn't go through the front panel if you shot up in the back and it wouldn't go through the back panel if you shot him in the front so what did you just do you just staple them to their body armor because this isn't like a little pellet bullet that is you know fifty sixty or hundred hundred grains or a hundred and twenty hundred three grains this is a shaft that's going to be going through the body armor sticking into organs muscle bone whatever and it's still attached to the armor at the other end yeah you gotta get off that how do you get off the all that's not fun though it's not fun at all don't you know yeah i know uh... you know here again uh... couple of things to the impact uh... if you want to do a great the best way to look at a lot of the unique stuff it's out there go to cabela's cabela's have got an entire department covering uh... you'll say fire hours but also they've got a great coverage armed archery in all categories so if you want to be a lot of the unique old and new typically they have a good selection there and they have a really good quality and especially of the present competitors uh... in the rear of the uh... compound crossbow we're talking smaller narrower shorter uh... or longer you know depending on the configuration what they're doing to uh... again try to uh... minimize the silhouette of the crossbow itself which is something that can be accomplished and that's what they've done but to do it you're you're having to spend some resources and some money on uh... a unique technology and you speak unique piece of equipment but it does work okay or truly truly does uh... if you are going to invest in crossbows it's like anything else the three-thirds the blades you better be looking at ammunition I cannot emphasize that enough. You better be looking at moles. If you're looking at a bow, seriously look at the cost of arrows. Understand you need something that is a utility, combat arrow, and you need, of course, precision arrows for other work. But you, needless to say, want to make sure that you get the mostest for the leastest in a utility bolt or a utility arrow so that you can pile them up a bit. You can always pull them out of the corpses down the road if you're lucky and recover them, but remember you're going to have an attrition rate. If they're aluminum, shafts, or titanium, doesn't make any difference, there's all kinds of materials, graphite. Remember that you're still going to probably end up with a percentage lost in any exchange, even though you might be able to recover them. Now everybody's going, what are you going to have a firefight with those arrows? No, but again, if you're looking in the long haul, conserving ammunition where you can use a reusable, a reusable munition is going to be desirable. So there are times where a bolt, a slash crossbow might be very useful for silencing an objective, minimizing the amount of perceived sound during the attack. The individual shot might still make a lot of noise. Don't forget that. Well, I'm really good. I want to hit him in the fill of the blank. There's always that guy's going to hit him in the head every time. It's like, yeah, okay, whatever. uh... fact of the matter is that people if they do perceive you're there have a tendency to we will wobble dodging you know jog uh... because of that again you're still going to help with the land of a report so that when you do what somebody does respond to being hit that would say they may may even survive quite effectively for a period of time it's unless likely that people will immediately realize or perceive the threat with a quieted weapon like that And that's something that everybody's taking into consideration, especially when we're looking at the types of attacks the enemy are planning right now. Remember, in amongst all the pew pews and boom boom, somebody going, and that is a very quiet and effective knockdown. I mean, you may not die immediately, but they're out of the eye, they're out of the contact, they're out of action. In fact, the biggest problem they've got is, like I said, it's not like getting hit with a bullet. In fact, there are some wicked things if you know what you're doing or if you know some of the commercial different types of hunting blades that are out there or unique scimitar type expandables that are out there that you're talking about a butcher shop machine in the field. Now, one hit on somebody like that, probably they're not going to be feeling too good. So the other consideration is if you really are not being kind, and you put the bolt where you want it to make noise, your target is going to be making a lot of additional or supplemental mayhem amongst their own people. Just something to think about there. And again, get it out, get it out, get it out, get it out. Well, I can't really pull it out, Bob. It's kind of stuck in bad and it looks like it hit a bone too. It's kind of a fix for the time being. Don't move much. Yeah. And that is real, okay? Anyway, let's see, I wanted to try and fit this in. I think that I can do this. Let me go over to guns and gadgets. And what we're going to do, I have 653. I think I can just fit this in. And the way to do this is what I'm going to do. Hold on here. Guns and gadgets. There we go. Missouri Second Amendment Preservation Act. something for you self-defense liability okay i'm gonna get past the ads good to have somebody pro to win your side to go to you with state that does this here we go okay i'm gonna save us some time fifty one second off of this and i'll play it hopefully we'll hit him before we get to the top the time i do a video on a state that does this second amendment sanctuary bill or second amendment preservation bill I always get people commenting and emailing and DMing, and I get a lot of them from this state. And y'all in Missouri are extremely motivated, and it's really, really good to see. Missouri's version of the Second Amendment Preservation Act has made it through both chambers for the governor to make a decision. Now, a little bit about the bill. It passed with one hour left, actually under one hour left, in this year's legislative session in missouri the thinking right down to the the final deadline and it wasn't an easy pass it went through a five-hour democrat filibuster in the missouri senate because you know they don't want they don't want freedom they don't want people to be able to protect themselves they think guns are bad this country was founded on firearms and they're there for a reason obit passable chamber the past of the house a hundred eleven years to forty two days and past the senate twenty four to ten now the missouri version of the second amendment preservation act is a very very strongly worded one one that has a very hefty fine for somebody who knowingly deprives a missouri resident of their second amendment rights I'm going to paraphrase what the bill does. It will declare all federal laws, rules, orders, or other actions which restrict or prohibit the manufacturer, ownership, use of firearms, firearms accessories, or ammunition. It also would include any taxes related to, anything related to tracking, any confiscation orders, and all that will not be enforced in Missouri by any state police, state municipal officials, or other state officials. In fact, if a police department does violate some of these rights knowingly, the fifty thousand dollar defined that they're going to have to pay i like that second amendment sanctuary acts that go into law i always want to remind people that this does not nullify federal law it doesn't all it says is that they will not get anybody in the state to help them out meaning if the feds want to come to force a federal law they have to do it on their own with no help from local or state police and i'll tell you that That is a big problem because there are so many, there are only so many bodies in each one of these alphabet boy groups. They don't have the manpower to do everything that old Joe wants or old Barry Obama wanted or old Trump wanted, you know, to take the guns first. All that stuff. They can't do it on their own. They always rely on the local authorities. And this would say if any of the local authorities help them, boom, 50K. That's a good thing. It's about time the states step up for their residents, their citizens. and say to the government no more because the United States Constitution is an active contract between the people and representatives. It can't be violated the way it is being violated currently. So it's nice to see states step up, do what needs to be done, you know, before what needs to be done gets done. So Governor Parsons is on his desk right now. Give a yell. I'll have a link down below to the governor's office contact information. Let him know that he should sign this. and uh... thank you for your time if you're into second-emendment news good that ugly or indifferent please consider subscribing to guns and gadgets this channel always brings forth second-emendment news matter where it's happening good that i've we were different every single sometimes multiple times a day so check your subscriptions that that they like on down below so you're staying in the know because they put out sometimes i guess that a couple of the day was to yesterday couple times last week it three videos a day because a lot going on so i look forward to having you join this growing freedom family until we see children be faith they've been carrying weapon gradually before the top of the hour and again a reminder of the government gadgets missouri second amendment preservation act will find state local police so this is an extension of the uh... sanctuary slash resolution process and as we said before what would you really think well yeah well it'll be interesting to see how they try to coerce or bryb and it always has to do with fed money which by the way they stole from the state the first place and then turn around and bring back his doggy treated to the idiots who are stupid enough not to see it and more willing to drink the kool-aid you know in uniform and in government so we again uh... we've got a couple of this actually a couple of the counties here in michigan that are uh... expanding out their process but other than that we already have militia formations uh... that are doing their part of the counties are doing their part to organize and everything ready to prove the jump off the interesting thing is that uh... in the last two weeks one of the most important aspects of this has been uh... preparation for uh... the michigan state police to betray along with the guard they expect the guard to fail the uh... people and The people who are in the Guard who know what's going on have already pretty well informed the counties of what the state has planned in conjunction with the Canadians and with the feds. Because the Canadians will be participating in attacking the Michigan people here in Michigan. The Guard knows there are a percentage that are fully up to speed. There are others that are lying through their face and everybody knows it. And everybody knows who's in the zoo. the big thing here with regard to the county's is also looking to the border not just simply well it's going to come from Lansing or whatever no guys uh... we're gonna have problems with the can heads right from the get-go and whoever else are bringing along for the ride in addition to the uh... federal you know interior police of the k g b so it is a we have a double front we are the other many empires on the run. We're on the march for day and night. We're on the in there. And for everybody out there, guys, again, you are the solution. We're going to get out of the way with Craig coming up next by the LTR right here and then we'll be back at 8. Another dangerous episode of Forbid Knowledge. My name is Craig. You're listening on Wednesday, May 19 of 2021. And by the way, if Ed's still listening, I had to call in again. For some reason, and this could apply to any of you who call in and try to use the mute function, which you hit star six to mute and then star six again to unmute or the other way around. Anyway, star six to unmute and star six to mute. Well, anyway, it seems that if you're on for a time, it seems like it happens to me a lot. If you're on for a time, I test it as soon as I get on, it works. But then about 10 minutes later, 15 minutes later, if I'm on that one, it seems to no longer work. So I have to hang up, call it back in again. So do that if you're trying to get on and talk to me on the air. If it doesn't seem to work, you could hang up, call back in, enter your code, 957-464-POUND, and then you can get possibly that it'll work for you then. I think I had to do that two or three times, sometimes in a row. Anyway, a little technical tip, technical glitch apparently, unless it's just my phone. I don't know. So anyway, let's see here. I guess I'll start out with talking. I don't really have much to talk about tonight, so you're welcome to call in. I'd love to hear from you. I didn't do any preparing really, just about 15 minutes before the show. I just turned on the computer, a couple things in the news, and that's it. We talk about the Findlay show that I did my first show for the year. Well, obviously it wasn't my first show. Might have done one in January. Well anyway, I did the Findlay show, which is a military vehicle show. I did that this past weekend. And that was, well, it was different. I've done the show before. Did it one at a time. But this time, the attendance was down. I didn't know what to expect because of the pandemic thing. Maybe a lot of people thought it was going to be canceled. I don't know. But I did the show. The attendance was down. The number of vendors with vehicles was down. I'd say we're missing about 100 vehicles from the last time I did it. And I only did it one at a time, so I don't have a lot of background experience with this show. Tennis was down. It was so down, in fact, that it's a three-day show, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Friday night and Saturday night, they hold their, they have these events at an arena. It's at a camp, not a campground, a public fairgrounds, county fairgrounds. And they had flamethrower demonstrations. And they hold those Friday night and Saturday night. When they get start, they do the flamethrower demonstrations. It's more impressive seeing the flamethrowers at night. Well, it was so bad that they didn't do the one Saturday night. And about half the vendors had left Saturday. Saturday, by the time the close of Saturday, about half the vendors had left. That gives you an indication that it's a bad show when that happens. Well, I didn't lose money. I made it a tiny bit. I'm not that concerned about it. I'm not depending on these shows to make money for me this year. I'm just trying to make sure I stay on the list for the waiting list. I don't have to get on the waiting list so I can get back next year if I want to do that. So anyway, it was a good time. This time they had two choppers flying, the Huey helicopters from the Vietnam era. They had two of those flying. Normally they only have one but this year they had two. And so they're constantly flying overhead and that's always interesting. You hear that Knob Creek too, of course, Knob Creek. The same helicopter flies out of Knob Creek, the same company. It's a lot of the Sibemly show in the Ohio, the military vehicle show. And it's always interesting when they're flying because it's, and then the gunfire and it just sounds like you're at war. So yeah, the show wasn't that good. Don't know if it had something to do with the pandemic or maybe people didn't know or maybe people thought it was canceled. I don't really know the reasoning behind why not only vendors but attendees, it wasn't much of a very well-attended. I don't know the answer to those. And I don't really know. I haven't really talked to anybody because I don't really have. I need to right now. I'm not worried about the shows. I don't know how well the gun shows are doing. I would presume since Biden got into office and if they're being held, I would presume the gun shows increased. And it always does seem to go that way once we get a new administration, especially a democratic new administration that usually seems to happen. I don't know the answer to that. Maybe some of you can tell me, call in if you will, and how the shows have been around your area. There still may not be a lot of shows in your area, but if you look, I bet you'll find some because they still are out there. Gun shows have been around now for a good six months or so. They've come back and they've been around for a while. And it looks like more and more things are opening. Maybe less and less people are getting scared of this pandemic. Don't know, but this particular show just wasn't very good. That's all I can say for sure. All right, listen, I picked up a couple of new things from my table. Try not to buy things to the show, especially things that might have trouble selling later. And something like this one might have trouble selling as intended because I bought an instrument cluster for a deuce and half truck, an instrument cluster for an M1A1 Jeep. That's not a gun, M1A1 Jeep. The reason being they have a... I learned this this weekend, I didn't really know. And I got to check my truck because I bet my truck is the same way. Some of the World War II era aircraft I already knew had radium dial gauges in the instrument cluster, instrument panels. And it turns out some of the older military trucks too, not just World War II, but maybe even a little bit older than World War II era trucks seem to have radium dial instruments in the dashboard clusters. Radium, radium meaning it tended to glow in the dark, at least it did when it was new. They tend to lose their ability to glow after a number of years and so, but they still remain radioactive for hundreds of years or thousands of years, I can't remember. So they're good test sources. My customers, when they're buying radiation detection equipment, a lot of times they'll want to buy a radioactive test source and radium is one of the hottest that you can buy. And you can go to antique stores, the most kind of thing you'll find a radium in the antique stores is old watches and The old Big Ben wind-up clocks or baby Ben wind-up clocks Well, we used to have his kids when I was kid in here Those are the best test sources you can find that have radium in it. You also get thorium Lantern mantles to get the older ones the antique ones. Yeah, like Coleman Aladdin, those lantern mantles that you like, those have thorium in it. And they're mildly radioactive, they're not greatly radioactive, but they are radioactive. Another hot source you can get more so than the radium and the thorium mantles is the fiesta-ware dishes. Made in West Virginia, fiestaware is a brand name, bowls, plates, cups, things of that nature. And you're looking for the color that's orange. You don't really care about the white, you don't care about the other colors. You're looking for the orange, because that's the one that has the uranium oxide glazing. And those are great test sources too. You can even find a broken one. The broken ones are going to be really cheap. Find a broken one, you still have radioactive test source. I've got a bunch of those that I generally don't take to the show, but I have a bunch of those as well. Because I sometimes raid the antique store so if you own an antique store find they don't have any of that stuff it might be because I was just in there. It's at a reasonable price which usually does. Usually you pick up something for about ten bucks at one of those stores with a radioactive, for a radioactive cell store. But anyway, I'm not really here to talk about that tonight unless you really want to call in if you can. Who's getting out of here? I'm sitting in a van, my newer van that I had to buy because of getting in a small wreck. But it's sunny here right now, and so it's kind of hot. It was like, oh, it was probably close to 80 degrees here in Michigan where I'm at building this underground structure that I'm trying to work on. Well, let's see. We had a couple things in the news today that I highlighted. One, which turned out to be the biggest news of the day, I guess, is the Criminal investigation of Trump. What has happened now, let me see, let me get the right page here. Hopefully my computer won't be blowing up on me here. New York Attorney General Office announced that it has partnered with a Manhattan district attorney, criminal investigation into former president Donald Trump's business dealings. We have informed the Trump organization that our investigation into his organization is no longer purely civil in nature. We are now actively investigating the Trump organization in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan District Attorney, a spokesman for the New York Attorney General Letitia James told CNN. Now, this statement didn't say what prompted the office to join the criminal investigation. But it's been the talk of the internet and on news everybody's reporting I'm finding and I texting people by here about this because it happened last night last first I heard about it. We're having less nights I was texting a few people Let me know it was some of our which Trump some Trump supporters and some of which are not and it's it's amazing to divide To say the least politics has never been so divided until the Trump era And it seems like so many people are either completely against them or completely for them. It's really amazing. Oh, and by the way, I still have about, I have probably over a thousand Trump coins and notes. Just fun stuff. It's nothing, it's pro-Trump stuff generally. And they're so okay. So the people apparently still, at least most people at that vehicle show, seem to enjoy the Trump stuff. So I guess I was kind of surprised. I thought I might get stuck with him and I was worried about getting stuck with thousands of them since he lost the election and hadn't been able to do anything with them because the pandemic went ahead to Michelle's. But the division is so great. You can form against them pretty much. I've always been neutral. I know that politics is just an illusion. I don't consider myself liberal or conservative or Democrat or Republican. I'm an American. I just got kind of tired of what's happened to my country and they're both destroying the country. Seems by intent. So I'm rather apolitical in some senses. But in talking to these people I know it's like they come up either... they'll even come up with a bunch of excuses of why Trump's being investigated. Like all the Democrats are pissed off and they're trying to get back at him. To the other extreme where, oh yeah, he was a criminal from the get-go and he should have been investigated, you know, five years ago. That's the general split. And there's hardly anything in between that I see. And then the cries of lock him up, lock him up. And I explained to them, well, you know what, lock him up. That's kind of doubtful. We have a hell of enough time just putting away cops that murder people, let alone politicians that do wrong things. Although, Although Illinois is a different story. We were doing an Illinois, I was showing Illinois recently and I hadn't known this without having looked it up. One of the people said, yeah, our past four governors have been in jail, have been in jail for crimes they committed in office. I think it was four. And so, Illinois politics is Chicago, you know. But to suggest that we're gonna see a president in jail, I don't know, probably far fetched. But we'll see. Supposedly, let me read the article, but if you haven't heard this story yet, this will explain a little bit of it. I suppose a very short article. New York Times reported that the Manhattan District Attorney's Office investigated Trump organization for a ray of criminal financial crimes, including fraud related to both taxes and banking practices. And if the Trump organization inflated the value of his properties to obtain favorable loans and then lowered the values to reduce taxes, which is probably something that happens a lot in business industry and real estate markets, I would think, but he's going to get maybe nailed for it. In February, the Supreme Court of the United States ordered the former president to turn over nearly a decade of tax returns to Vance's office. The work continues, Vance said on Twitter in a brief statement after the decision in February. District Attorney said the statute of limitations to press criminal charges is waning, but if it's for fraud, there is no statute of limitations on fraud. This is my knowledge. The state's Attorney General of Civil Investigation has some crossover with the district attorney's budding criminal case, Associated Press, reported on Wednesday, today. The overlap includes examining whether Trump or his businesses manipulated the value of assets, which is inflating them in some cases and minimizing them in others, to gain favorable loan terms and tax benefits, the AP reported. Also, James' office issued subpoenas to local governments in November 2019 for records pertaining to Trump's real estate north of Manhattan's Seven Springs and a tax benefit Trump received for placing land there into a conservative. Conservation Trust, Conservation Trust reported the Associated Press. Attorneys for the Trump Organization did not provide comment about the announcement of a joint criminal investigation. Trump has previously said that his investigation is politically motivated. And of course, he's always maintained that for everything in Witch Hunt. That's one of the favorite words as far as that goes. So we have a former president. I don't know, I'm trying to think if anything during my life, I've seen that. Where former president is under criminal criminal investigation after they've left office. I guess I Can't recall one that maybe you know, I'll call in talk about here if you do know But this will be a little interesting. Maybe politics won't be so boring But of course, this is previous politics I think every effort is making on their way to make sure he can't run again and frankly I'm one of the mother anti Trumpers it Talked I talked to about it texted about it. She said well, yeah And there's a lot of Republicans that would probably love to see him go down in flames like that to try to restore some semblance of the resurrection of the Republican party. Because if Trump's gone out of the picture for good, then the Republicans can go about their business like they used to, which was, of course, to yield the end, to yield them, same thing. But if Trump stays in the game, We have a couple of factors that could come into play. First of all, we have a lot of Republicans that secretly would rather not have to support the guy, but you have to have to support the party. So we got those people, then we got the other ones who were supporting the other ones who just totally not support him, which isn't very common in the Republican Party, but we have a few. Cheney would be the one that has gone down in her own flames in a way because of such a held view. So the Republican Party now They're going to be quite divided if Trump does come back in the game. So let's say he's already vowed to support people in the 2022 elections. And of course he's vowed to return, if he can, to 2024. But if he does that, the Republican Party is going to have a hard time with it because there are some hardcore Republicans that also might not join into the game and probably not too many Democrats will be joining into the Republican game. to offset that balance. So the Republican Party's got kind of a difficult position as long as Trump is in the picture at all. Now if he were to pass away, now that could instantly fix all that. If he goes to jail, it will still be divided in some ways, but at least the people that are secretly anti-Trump in the Republican Party can then voice their opinions, yeah, he was a crook all along, and be justified in doing so, I suppose. without maybe having their party come down on them like they did for Cheney here last week. And if Trump, and this is another thing that's been going on, Trump has supposedly vowed to create another party, which of course would pretty much do in the Republican Party too for any chances of future elections, because then the Democrats would dominate the field, because then you have essentially a three-party system. So anyway, look at it, the Republican Party, unless he passes away or goes to jail, the Republican Party is going to look at some problems in the future. Okay, let's see, anything else? Oh, here's another bit in the news. I heard about this and I thought, hmm, this is interesting. Bitcoin. Why has the price of Bitcoin been falling? Now, for those of you who told my brief outlook about Bitcoin, been watching this for years, it's been around for about a decade now, been watching this for a while and a few years ago I come to the conclusion that I believe Bitcoin is a ploy to get people to fall into a system that you believe is against the man and fiat money. But in actuality, this is opinion here. This is not fact. I don't know this to be fact. But in my opinion, probably is started by the very people who control the money in an effort to Continue the deception and still maintain control of not only the monetary system but of digital currency as well. If you work hundreds of years to fine-tune your fiat monetary system and implement it worldwide, you spend all that work and hundreds of years doing that, you're not just going to sit on your hands and watch some geek from Japan or wherever they claim you started them. Sitting on his sit on your hands while it brings down world monetary systems You're just not going to let it happen. You're going to have a plan way ahead of time To head that off of the past before it even comes a problem hence Bitcoin again, that's my opinion. It's the most logical answer to all this Because while you or somebody that you know runs to Bitcoin thinking yeah, it's it's private. They don't know I have it It's against the man. We can take back control of our monetary system out of the hands of the big bankers When in fact, it might be the big bankers behind the scenes to begin with and why hasn't the Federal Reserve and other worldwide banking institutions IMF World Monetary Fund Why haven't they been screaming because frankly if it was really As good as people seem to think who get into Bitcoin They would have made it illegal long time ago or shut it down But it's been allowed to maintain so Hmm. Hence my opinion that the people who run your money also run Bitcoin But price of this famously volatile digital currency fell nearly 30% at one point today After the Chinese Banking Association warned member banks of the risk associated with digital currencies even though of course China is implementing their own digital currency. The decline narrowed to below 10% in the afternoon, but Bitcoin still lost about 70 billion in market value in 24 hours. 70 billion in market value, something that doesn't have any value. That's kind of weird, isn't it? Bitcoin has lost about 38% of its value since April 13th, when it hit a high of more than 64,800, according to CoinDesk. The China warning was just the latest headwind. Before Wednesday, Tesla's decision to not accept digital currency as payment for cars after it said it would, and murmurings in Washington about tighter regulation of digital currencies that put pressure on Bitcoin. The price is still up about 31% in 2021 and nearly 300% from a year ago. So even though I took a big dump here today, it's still 300% from where it was a year ago. For something that has no value, so take that with a grain of salt. Yeah, digital Elon, Tesla. Oh, we won't take Bitcoin. After all, even though he was claiming he would. There was a joke behind that. I can't, I'm trying to remember what the joke, what joke I came up with on that. Okay, anyway, so Bitcoin took a big tank today. Now, of course, tomorrow could be up another 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20% 20%, 20% 20 You can if you want I think it's a trap I might be wrong but knowing the history Read a book caught by G. Edward Griffin. Most of you probably know this already Read a book by G. Edward Griffin called the creature that never was or no. I'm sorry What's happening? They're not that not know the creature from check island I'm getting it mixed up with a Bill Benson book the law that never was sorry. Sorry about that Yeah, the creature from Jekyll Island by I just sent his name a second ago, G. Edward Griffin. And it shows you the history of the Federal Reserve Bank and the lengths to which they go to make this funny money that you call dollars. It's an incredible story. And this is not just the Federal Reserve Bank. It's happened all over the world for hundreds of years. You've been controlled by your money. Let's see. You talk about that anymore. Nobody's calling in briefly about Israel. Cause a strip less bank these this is going on again Probably will continue going in after they continue to not after Ramadan which I guess I was kind of surprised They started it during Ramadan which they knew would cause trouble Israel just like sister, you know what and the last numbers I heard was about dozen Israelis and 240 some Palestinians have been killed and it's just a chance for Israel to Get rid of their old their their older weapons continue to fine-tune their iron dome, and at the same time, knocking down the Palestinians again for another five to ten years so they can build up again and repeat the process. And until Iran can start supplying them with some better weapons, or some other country, supply them with better weapons other than the kind of miserable rockets that they're using now, which aren't very effective because very low percentage actually get through their defense shield. Until that happens, This cycle will continue. Unless, and this isn't going to happen either, if you always wondered why we such supported for Israel, and always wondered about that, and you don't have to really study a lot really, but if you follow the money, you'll see this be the case. Don't think of Israel, it'll make more sense to you if you think of Israel as the 51st state of the United States of America. But wait, no, not really, check that. It's even easier to understand you think of Israel as being the first state of the United States of America We give them something like 40 billion dollars a year at aid and our weapons as well With the understanding they're supposed to only use them in defense. Is this really defense? And why don't we supply them to Palestinians with the same weapons? Hmm. Why do we just supply Israel with these weapons? So if you're wondering how this can keep going on And who's at fault? You need not, but just look in the mirror. If you're part of the Social Security Club, you know that cult called Social Security, or a file your 1040 form every year, you are aiding and abetting. You have confented to what is being done with your money by giving it to them. And hence, the problem will continue. That's really it. If that country would not exist without the United States, I think everybody probably knows that. It wouldn't last very long. And while you're studying, I might have mentioned this last week because this has been going on for 10 days now. While you're studying, look up the USS Liberty 1967 five-day war where an Israeli attack, this Israeli military attacks a United States ship in international waters. With the intent of sinking such ship to blame it on Egypt and get the United States involved in their War which only turned out to be five days. Where have we heard that story before? USS Maine Pearl Harbor, Lissitania Kind of a common theme there isn't and ships are quite often central to that process So I'm hoping next week I have to, I haven't approached this, I know somebody from Israel who, interesting point of view as an Israeli because this person grew up in the United States, then moved to Israel in their 20s, I think, and has lived there for about 30 years. I thought she was an American with dual citizenship, of course, Israel allows that. The American living in Israel for the last 30 years. And somebody like that will have a good perspective, I believe. I'd like to interview this person if they want to do that. I don't know yet. I'm hoping to do that next week. So hopefully if it works out, we can do that next week. But I don't really know if that's going to happen. Because frankly, I'm ignorant about some things relating to the Israeli-Palestinian issue. As are most of you, I'm sure. We hear things we see in the mainstream media and then we hear and see things that we hear on the alt media, which might be lying to us just as much as the mainstream media lies to us, which I have been finding the case on so many things to do with the alternative media versus the mainstream. They both lie to you. Then a perspective such as that might be helpful. We shall see. I'm trying to get it arranged, but it has not been confirmed. Okay, my show's a little more than half done. You've been listening for big knowledge. My name is Craig. This is if you're listening on Wednesday, the 19th of May, 2021, you're welcome to call in. If you're listening at any other time, of course, you're listening to a rerun. But welcome for you to talk about any of those things that I just talked about in the news. Sorry, I'm drinking. You're welcome to call in. So anyway, I'm going to continue on with a topic I started. Nobody thought called to call in. Mick, continue on with the topic. I covered darkly. Yeah, somebody's there. Hi there. Hey, hi. This is Tex-Mex. Speak up a little bit. I'm having a hard time hearing you. This is Tex-Mex. I'm the render caller with Mark. Yeah. I hear you. Tex-Mex. I can hear better now. Go ahead. Yeah, Tex-Mex. Yeah. Hey. Oh. OK. Yeah, I just want to go over what I've seen here in Around the Stand. Your first question was about gut shows. Yeah. Yeah, and what I've been seeing here in this area is the gun shows are still going on and after Biden got it, I mean, there was a lot of people still going before the election, but I mean, it's even worse now. I mean, they're really, really packing the prices and the prices, everything about here is is just skyrocketing. All prices are way over what they should be. And the other part of the problem is there's not that much inventory at these gun shows. The other problem is you can see people are, there's a lot of ammunition being brought out. You can tell some of these people have been sitting on this stuff for years and it's just they bring it out on the tables. I mean there wasn't like, you know, $20 or $25 for a box of Winchester 55 grain, you know, 556, you know, over a dollar round, 9 millimeters. The cheapest I've seen is, you know, $40 for 50. And you can always go see who the guy, we've got a local chain around here called Academy. And you know, they still add a reasonable price, but you can see the guys who go over and get up there in the morning right away. And you can see that they've got a forget the name brand that they've got, but it's there stuff's out there on the Monarch. That's what it's called Monarch. And it's out there on the table. You could have bought that box for less than half what they want. And, you know, it's it's just getting really crazy as far as the gunshots go and finding, finding parts. And like they're going, and one more thing I wanted to say, a friend of mine told me, one of the biggest gun show promoters here in Texas, fax it, gun shows, they are going to lose their San Antonio facility when they were having that. They've been kicked out of Austin, other cities. They still have a few of the gun shows around the state. But, I mean, we're talking one of the big ones. And San Antonio, they were in a very big building and the owners decided they wanted to repurpose it. And so they're scrambling to find us someplace in San Antonio to do a dentshow. I've done that show. I've done that show. We have a pretty big building. If I recall, it was like a repurposed kind of Kmart building or something like that, right? Yeah, the way it was on Marbach. The last one that they had was at Marbach. And it was a furniture store. It was a furniture store. And the owners were letting them use it. And they weren't using it for anything else. And they were just letting people rent it out. And Saksa was one of them. But what I heard was that they gave the business, their furniture business, to their son and the son said, they were leasing another building for the furniture store and the son said, why am I going to keep leasing this building when I've got a perfectly good building right here, right off of 410. So he said, I'm going to take the building over and make a furniture store out of it again. So why are they losing other shows too? Is there some kind of political motivation behind trying to shut them down? The one in Austin was all political. Austin and the Surrendering Area of Austin, it's bad. You know, you got something like that, a gun show, every city, little city council around Austin, they want you out. They were in Austin, there were several places in Austin in the past 10 years and they just kept getting kicked out of one spot or another. And they finally ended up in Buta, Buta kicked them out, and then they ended up in Drippin Springs, Drippin Springs did not kick them out, and they don't have an Austin area gun show anymore. Well, you know what, this kind of thing does happen to promoters now, to have it happen to several other locations at once, I think it's kind of unusual, but... Country promoters do have to occasionally relocate where the shows are held and it's usually not too difficult to find another location because there could be a lot of other buildings in San Antonio that are going to be available for lease. They may not be ideal or they might be better. They enter into these longer term contracts and they just have to find a new contract. So don't be dismayed about Austin or the San Antonio or any of these cities. Because they likely will find another place unless the market just couldn't bear it and they don't want to Start it up again in that city. Anyway, San Antonio as far as I could remember Seemed like a pretty good show. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible And they don't have as much problems there, but anywhere around Austin There's there's just too much liberal liberalism in that area Okay, well, but they very well could find or a city right next to us. You got to also understand you can leave the city limits and it could be a whole other ballgame. It may not be as good of a location. But you could have a lot better situations. There would definitely be a smaller building. And like I said, the other two cities I mentioned around Austin, they're right next to Austin, they were kicked out of there, those by the local boards. But like you said, there might be something, it might be not directly in Austin, it might be a little further out. But, I mean, they may have to go to Georgetown or something like that. Yeah. Yeah, my experience with Texas gun shows, and you can look them up online, you can find this to be true. Every time I look up gun shows around the country, Texas has many, many shows every single weekend. Now, Texas is a big state, of course, but there's, if I recall, three or four gun show promoters in Texas, and there's, in my opinion, there's just a little bit too much, too many of them, because they're just so... There's so many and they're trying to outdo each other. That's true in Northern Indiana as well and there's other countries where that happened. I think I believe there's too many gun shows in Texas. Not because I'm a guy shows is just because there's too many of them. And if you start putting too many of them, they all tend to suffer a little bit and it makes all the shows a little lesser. There's some big shows in Dallas, a big Fort Worth show, a big Dallas show. Most cities are right beside each other, essentially. And both the shows, but then you could every other week you can do a show at one of those two. Yeah. Hey, Kevin here, I can tell you there are not enough gun shows. In your area. Well, I'm in Texas. I'm in the panhandle, but I also lived in Houston, Texas. I lived in Dickinson. You know, and we've got family in Austin. So yeah, I've been around those areas of the state. I've been through Fort Worth on the trip from Wabak to here. There's enough country between each of those points even though you're saying Dallas and Fort Worth are close together. That's like saying You know Jackson and Ann Arbor close together Yes, they're not really Well, I'm there's cities between them. I know that but the point is Anytime if any gun show in the country anywhere in the country before this is pre pandemic though anyone in the country you could pretty much go within an hour's distance to be able to go to a gun show every month in the area you live in. That's the general rule about an hour's travel. And Dallas and Fort Worth were within hours each other. So that's my point there. And you have two very big gun shows in Dallas and then one in Fort Worth. But when you look up Texas on the pages of the USA gun shows or gun shows USA, whichever it is, you'll find that Texas has about 10 shows a week. Whereas you may only find one in most of the other states. It's just, there's an incredible amount. Again, Texas is a big thing. You mentioned it yourself, Craig, the size of Texas. Not everybody's going to drive. It's like driving from the southern part of Michigan all the way to the U.P. Just because there's a gun show in the southern corner of Michigan and there shows that, you know, mid-Michigan and in the U.P., doesn't mean they're going to be competing with each other. They're miles apart. In some cases hundreds of miles apart. So yeah, I would say, just like with the radio station, you can't have too many. The diversity is a better thing. That way you have more competition, it runs the price down depending on what you're dealing with. I think competition is a great thing. What the caller was talking about with Academy, people going in and buying ammunition and putting it in the gun show for more expensive. Notice that here when we went to the Lubbock Gun Show which was moved to the Lleverland area, the Lleverland Event Center, the price of ammunition did seem a bit much but a lot of what was there was reloaded or old stuff in stock because the ammo stores are talking, the ammo producers are talking about they're making a lot of ammo but if they are it's not showing up on the shelves or if it is it's getting swooped up so fast. You can't go into Walmart or Academy and find ammo on the shelves. Not if you're looking for 9mm or .223 or hell, even 12 gauge shotgun. I couldn't find 12 gauge shotgun when I was going to the local Academy here. Told me I had to order it and it would be probably two to three months on back order and maybe even longer. It's even hard to find 22. Yeah. So just because you're not seeing it in the show, a lot of people were at home during the pandemic. A lot of people could order stuff online and took advantage of that. It's one of the reasons why they want to attack is because they saw those sales too. They know what's going on with the ammo sales. They have organizations that keep track of it. You have the anti-gunners, you've got the ATF, you've you know, alcohol, tobacco, and firearms. And then you have the stores, the FSL licenses, they look at all that stuff. They know what's being moved. If it's not happening at the gun shows, and yeah, a lot of times people couldn't go to the gun shows, so they were going to those stores. And to be honest, some of the ammo prices at the stores like the car we're seeing here are a lot more reasonable than going to the gun shows. So the shelves get cleared off a lot faster than they would if you were at a gun show. Yeah, the ammo situation was in dire straits back before the election too. So ammo has been kind of hit for quite a while. And I don't know about how it is now at the moment, since I really haven't done shows in a while, but ammo was hit big time at the end of last year. You don't have to do a show to gauge what ammo is like. Wherever you are, there's probably a Walmart or a Myers or someplace like that that sells sporting goods. Go back and just take a look at the ammo shelf, Craig. See what's there. And that's a chain store that has, you know, warehouses full of stuff to put on the shelf. Yeah, I must admit, I don't check those places. I just, since I did shows all the time, I could just kind of see it all around me all the time. But yeah, ammo, ammo took a hit and then the prices went way up and sounds like the prices are way up again. A lot of times you'll find a lot of older retired people come out and they'll just have one table, bring a couple of their friends and get rid of a lot of stuff they've had over the years. And sometimes you can find some legal things at those types of tables. But the big ammo dealers during times of crises, some big shooting or election or something, they tend to run out even like on the first day of the show. They put everything out and all of a sudden, boom, and then try to make a trip to one that can't get enough. So things were, things were moving really heavily back. back right before the election. That's the time I can vouch for at least the last time because I haven't really done that much show since. But my point about the Texas show is it seems to be up to many shows. Then it thins the field out. It becomes, this happened a show in Virginia that they made them, the hall made them increase it from four shows a year to seven shows a year. And it was a really good show, Chantilly, Virginia, I'm talking about. And what happened was the promoter was forced to do this, otherwise they were going to let in another gunshot promoter for those other three shows. So they would like a, damn if you do, damn if you don't, because what happened was we turned to hell because now instead of being an event where you go, you know, four times a year, show no like no i'm doing it again i'll go next time so it starts the customer starts getting discouraged or if there's too many of them are going to another one of the attendance drops in the meantime the vendors wanna see high attendance because they're sitting in a show that has lots of time it's now if there's too many shows in the same area or too often. And that was the problem some of the better shows are facing is if they start doing things like that or they start getting greedy and think they're going to do it more, then they start hurting your own business because it does. A gun show, to a lot of customers, a gun show is more of an event than something like, oh wow, gun shows, I got to go. Whereas if it's happening every week or every other week, oh well, okay, I can go next month. It's a sort of psychology thing, so you can't have too many of them. And that's my point about the Texas shows. If I recall, there's at least three big gun show promoters in Texas. Usually they stay within their states. Usually the promoters don't do multiple states. That's not always true. There are a few of them to do. Usually they tend to stay in the same state. They keep the same vendors and build up a camaraderie with them because a lot of times vendors can't go from state to state because of border crossing licensing laws for gun sales. So vendors like me who don't sell guns, I can go state to state and it really makes no difference. But a lot of the gun show sellers are gun sellers at shows. They tend to stay with the same promoter at the same show and within the same state. They almost have to. Okay, well, Collard, you have anything else to add about the show? What you saw? How was the attendance, do you believe it, the show that you're at? If you're still with us, might not still be with us. Yeah, I'm sorry, I had to unmute. Yeah, the attendance is, hey, it's like this. I was there like an hour after it opened, and this happened more than once. I had to just keep circling, circling for almost 20, 30 minutes before I find a parking place. Is that packed? Okay. Was that on Saturday or Friday? On Saturday. Saturday, so that's the first, it was a two-day show? Yeah, but here mostly it's Saturday and Sunday, not Friday. Well, that is usually the case usually it's two days but sometimes a lot of shows are for a three-day shows Friday Saturday Sunday and Knob Creek by the way for those of you don't know Knob Creek So far that I've seen is still on for the fall But so Knob Creek went from a three-day show Friday Saturday Sunday to a two-day show Friday and Saturday So keep that in mind if you're planning your knob Creek trip for this year because who knows how big it'll be I actually had one person comment to me that They don't they don't think not people ever come back and I asked them why I thought doesn't sound right I mean, I'm sure there's a lot of people would definitely go to the show when it comes back And he just said he's just thought the political climate nice. Okay. Well, I don't really agree with that. But okay so some people think not people never come back hope it's not the case, but Who knows they they won't lose their venue because they own that property put that way They might lose their insurance company and I did a I did a YouTube video about that while the gun show motors are having a problem with being shut down by their insurance company. In other words, they raise the insurance rate so much that they either can't afford to do the show or they have to increase the price ticket sale price pricing to be able to get that extra insurance, that extra public insurance. So private companies, depending on the companies, could also shut down shows. And like I said, I did a video about that on my YouTube channel. Credit card companies can shut down shows they can disable when they find out that their their ATM machines are being used at gun shows if they find out that they can actually shut down But the cards down and it's happened before So credit card companies can shut them down Insurance companies could shut down and of course local governments can shut them down just by not network or other private companies by not renewing their contracts for running the facilities could shut them down. So gun shows are being hit by in a lot of different directions by private companies, not just governments. Okay, let's see, 753. I got a few more minutes. I want to talk about anything else, caller. I've got about five minutes left. What do you think about Bitcoin? You see what I said about Bitcoin? Yeah, I heard that I've the first one when somebody first explained that to me I said no I said I'm not getting into this this is too easy to to put the screws to Yeah, I mean it would be it seems like it would be super easy if you were to control Yeah, oh you need to get the Bitcoin buy some Bitcoin. No, it's gonna go up. It's gonna go up I just kept thinking if you ain't got it in your hand you ain't got it Yeah, and and and of course the people who did invest in Bitcoin Well, they haven't made anything unless they cash in their Bitcoin But that being said if they look at their numbers the numbers have probably certainly gone up if they bought Bitcoin in the last 10 years Unless they just bought it Yesterday, then of course they went down 40% in one day or whatever, but no You you don't make any money on Bitcoin unless you actually Cash it in and buy something of substance with it as the only that is the only people who actually made any money on Bitcoin Everybody else is just talking Just talking smack because there's nobody's made any money on Bitcoin unless you have cashed it in So that's kind of the bottom line on Bitcoin as far as all the people who said they've made so much money. Nope. They haven't made a penny They must be cashed it in and who knows Bitcoin might keep going up might go down my collapse But if it's being controlled by how I think it's being controlled, it will be around for a long time And if it does get replaced, it'll be replaced by something else that is also under the control by people who control the money. Again, my opinion. Yeah, they got that new one called doggy or dog something. There's a new Bitcoin or type of electric coin or something. Well, there's there's lots of cryptocurrencies. Probably I've seen maybe 100 of them. There are so many of them. And some governments are trying to get into the game now, at least openly. like China and I think Venezuela Some other countries have been getting into the well, there's digital currency and there's cryptocurrency. There's two essentially different kinds of currencies, but in essence, they're Kind of the same thing because it's just imaginary bits and bytes that we call money But of course, we have pieces of paper that are imaginary we call money too. So it's all it's all relative because it's all just a big scam in a way Right and I found a big interest in silver at the show this weekend, because I do have some silver for sale. It's amazing to me how all of a sudden the price of silver, last weekend it was $27.50 something, something like that. And the price of silver almost doubles. And then all of a sudden people want to buy it. And they always seem strange to me. Why all of a sudden go, why didn't you buy it last week? It was half the price, or whatever, last year. But for whatever draws more interest and all of a sudden people want to buy it when the prices like double. And interestingly enough, if you look at this, and this has been predicted by the silver bugs for a long time, price of silver almost doubled here in the last year, but price of gold did not double. It went up a little bit, but certainly didn't go up anywhere near the percentage wise that silver did. Copper also went up. Copper went up big time and I did sell a lot of copper. But the copper, not too many people buy my copper because of the value of the raw spot price of copper. Because that's not even a... There is a commodity that has a daily number and changes, but it's not reported on and people don't think of copper as a monetary value way to hold money. Most people don't think of it that way. It can be any metal can be anything can be in fact, I don't even have to be metal. It'd be anything There's all the salt based on the perception of the people who buy sell and trade it that's the only true value of any monetary system is the belief and acceptance of the people who use it and For now people are still believing in federal reserve notes. So we're okay for now someday that could change Okay, and then I've also looked at a video I did some time ago, about three or four years ago, about the Coincidence Act of 1792. And the takeaway of that is video on my YouTube channel, forbid TV, if you want to look it up, and enter in the Cointa Jack or something like that. And what was interesting to take away of that is, I think it's section 10 of the Cointa Jack of 1792, that anybody that violates the provisions of this act, meaning specific weight or measure of gold and silver coin, shall be punished by death. That's what it says right in the coin eject. So there will be a whole lot of people who should be dying today if that was... We could still actually enforce the coin eject. And if you don't know the answer to this question, you need to look it up. Seems like a simple simple question, but nobody can answer it generally nobody can have you may ask a banker Banker will not be able to answer this question very simple question. What is a dollar? That's your question. What is a dollar? I mean anybody will be able to Answer that including bankers, but it's easily looked up in the coinage act of 1792 it defines what a dollar is It also defines what an eagle is which is now in archaic term in terms of money because gold hasn't been in our money for close to 100 years now. So, but silver had been up till 1964, but we still call them dollars, even though they can't be called dollars. And you look at the definition of what a dollar is. So that's your homework for until next week. My name is Craig. I try to do this show once a week. Hopefully I'll be back next week. You've been listening on May 19th of 2021. I hope to see everybody back here next week. Thanks for calling in, Tyler. I'm consistently ahead. I didn't realize how much tonight. So much week, so long. is part of our Constitution. You know, the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt, to protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless, people that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones, we're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. What do we do? Politicians. No, okay, just get any blunt objects together, alright? If you get corners, bash them in the head, that seems to work out. Keep together, stay sharp and follow me. I dreamed the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat, and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. It's numbered. You trade it 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 so their children will 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 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 Iooke 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, is to still the land of the free? evening ladies and gentlemen this is the evening intelligence report ever quirky one-day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories southwest east northeast and uh... south ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on liberty tree radio dot four m g dot com liberty tree radio obama satellite and we are running a m f m micro stations cb base stations and ultra net hallmark and golden spike technologies east and west of the mississippi along with alaska good afternoon to all of our friends out there in lower forty nine including the great state of jefferson along with konos the outline two states territories and the clock it is oh my goodness it's eight oh six p m eastern standard time it is weapons wednesday the nineteen th of may it is the twenty-eighth of frequently thirteen here of open and obvious baby and socialist and soviet socialist occupation of america with the k two thousand twenty one older calendar two thousand twenty one battle for the republic dance of the swords and let's see couple of interesting things uh... i hate this with the you just want to well anyway the glitches are so common now it's like i've said before it's irrelevant this it becomes irrelevant uh... one of the uh... things for weapons wednesday we've talked about your personal defense handguns shotguns and separate in different fire weapons or something we don't always talk about or again large-poor technology but there is a lot of black powder artillery out there uh... that is not obsolete it's just one shot it's a little trouble would look good would do well that one shot to be pretty devastating and of course it properly applied it's no different from any of the other types of ordnance that are out there but what's really interesting is with a little research it's amazing how more sophisticated you can make a conventional muzzle loading gun. If you have any kind of tube whatsoever, I want you to first do research on the Sabot or Sabot or Sabot as the Sarge is called. We got ourselves a Sabot round here. You mean a Sabo round? Yeah, well it's a Sabot round to the Sarge. And that's what we're all going to call it, okay? The Sabo slash a Sabot. And most important here is that the Sabo technology could have been employed at any time over the last several hundred years of large bore artillery. Had it been known to the degree that it could have been easily, like so many other ideas in ordnance, it could have been brought to fruition you know fruition earlier and it would have been a deva dating solution to warfare i mean with regard to being applied it like it like the and uh... okay the ten gun could have been made and and in fact easily made uh... during the revolutionary war that sounds weird but most assuredly it could have been built uh... with supporting technology already in place it could have been built in during the civil war the stand down for all practical purposes don and brass bronze and low-grader upper-grade or upper-grade steel to pay and what prioritize though you know in terms of construction a magazine fed rimfire model would have easily been built in the stand up we imagine the confederate cavalry with a thirty two round or even a twenty round magazine fed light machine guns slash submachine gun to carry as cavalry like the dragooner infant or the return to a recovery car beings were out there or musketoons or whatever but if ever musketoon but about but about but about about but about but about all it still could have been black powder and would have been a big issue uh... it cartridge size would have varied but room fire and the palm other they'll patterns of cartridge were readily available before the civil war The metallurgy involved to build a ten gun that could handle a black powder charge like that and operate the spring regulates the gun and it's a slam fire you know open bolt gun to begin with remember that so it's not like you know this is really quite crude by comparison cost two dollars and seventy five cents to make during wartime. So there's an example of a complete system that could have been built 150 to 200 years earlier, by the way when I said the Revolutionary War, all the technology was there to build it. The idea of how to make the cartridge was the issue. But all of the rest of the technology to put together with the existing framework of the concept of how to make it, how it would go together, was available in 1775. The metallurgy would have been sufficient. The skilled craftsmen were there available. The ironmongers were there. Everything they needed. And remember, brass and bronze was used extensively or tested extensively with the Sten gun and it worked. So it didn't necessarily all have to be of higher end or even mid grade steel. Again, how long would it last? Well, guess what? If you are using muzzling firearms and the thing only lasted four or five or six thousand rounds before it had to be partially rebuilt, Would it make any difference? The change in technology and the firepower available especially for the type of unit that would apply it, again, that's why I mentioned cavalry, that would have been a monstrous dynamic change. Now, SABO. Basically, discarding SABO is a subcaliber dart of a denser material than you would normally use. ensconced in a fiber, ceramic, or aluminum or other metal sheath that when it's fired down the tube inside a gun, as it leaves, the design of the sheath is such that air, you know, wind resistance forces it to break away, kind of like the elements of a multi-stage spacecraft, in this case, or just two stages. But the sable moves away, opens up kind of like the petals of a flower, allowing the uninterrupted dart to proceed downrange at very, very high velocities. The interesting thing is, lower pressure, higher velocity with a gun like this, or with a, a sebble round. Now understand something. You ever see any little Civil War black powder cannon that are out there? Well, you do understand that the very thing that I just described could easily have been loaded into any black powder muzzle loading field piece. Yeah, it would have taken however long it normally takes to reload, but you do understand the potential here with a sable round in a single shot large bore gun. You're talking flatter trajectory, higher velocities, and a lot of punch. In other words, there isn't much of anything that would be in front of it that would stop it. For fortification, busting. knocking middle ship to ship it would have been devastating it would have totally changed the science of of of the of ship warfare just need we're not talking about changing the gun we're just talking about but but they unique change in ammunition now understand to that with black powder bore black powder guns and with large bore uh... you're looking at penetration with a gun to with that type comparable to many of the present tank tubes that are out there the gun to better out there Example is, Sabo is presently built in every caliber that exists. There are discarding Sabo rounds for every bore of tank weapon or direct fire weapon that exists. Right down to and including your 12-gauge shotgun, which we've talked about quite a bit, where they got the idea for that was from Tank Warfare. discarding Sabo for instance 30 caliber rifle which has been around for quite some time. Remington of course bought one of the contract versions and Remington was making discarding Sabo 30 caliber down 255 you know 55 grain 556 and again we're looking at thousands you know of 4300 feet per second 30 you know 4,000 3900 to 4,000 feet per second easily. uh... and of course you could load custom load and we were able to drive a projectile higher than that that's what the company of the book of thirty out six or three out three oh eight seven six two by fifty one eight around so if you have a black powder gun if you're looking at whatever bore you have you then can actually mimic the existing uh... discarding table technology using still the main basic charge even that you're using there's no need to increase Your ball, you know, the powder charge to move a ball or a canister round downrange. In fact, if you use that powder charge, you're going to be increasing velocities because remember, this sable fills up the space of the bore, the volume. But you're reducing the weight of the projectile, the dart, that is being used. So where this is really the advantage is in armor or material penetration. Doesn't have to be all the go up against neighbor. I always hear that that bullet garbage by idiot sticks Well, yeah, if need be all fire everything at a neighbor. Also anything in everything is going downrange biggest smallest everything Well, what you're gonna do stuff. I don't care. Let's not out anything small enough or big enough that you know, what if it's big enough to get hit which is everything on the tank it Cumulative damage on anything that's the equivalent to soft tissue on the outside or less armored is going to be damaged But in this case, we're talking about the right kind of hit on the right target, tearing a hole straight through it. It does not have to be depleted uranium, although the Sabo do have, there are depleted uranium Sabo realms. Conventional steel for target practice and tungsten carbide have been used for primary penetration for a very, very, very long time, and all kinds of other sophisticated alloyed metals were developed to again try to get maximum performance out of the projectile. What this means is if you have a 4 inch, 5 inch, or 6 inch black powder gun though, that you could actually load it to the point where as long as you can get a zero on a target, let's say you can channel anything that's coming at you in a medium or light armored vehicle, then there is no doubt that penetration of the vehicle is going to take place and it's going to significantly damage the piece of equipment. So it's not that it's obsolete, but it can be employed successfully, much in the same way a fire and forget shoulder-fired weapon would be all that much bigger. But the other advantage is range. If you're not familiar with the range of artillery, of Civil War era or black powder artillery as it can be developed and built new, by the way, do a little research. There's all kinds of videos out there. When you apply SEBO, you're looking at increasing range, flattening the trajectory, and when you get to target, penetration is optimal, which is one of the things taken into consideration when knocking out, for instance, support vehicles, light armored vehicles. All you got to do is get a good hit on target. If you've got more than one gun tube and you use them in teams, Well, it significantly changes the enemy's perspective on the environment. Just something to think about there. We had a caller, I think I heard a voice, go ahead. I thought I heard a voice, I might have been mistaken there. Speak up caller if you've got to unmute. Otherwise, again, this technology is all off the shelf, it's not difficult to understand. What would it cost to stand up one of those? I'm sorry, repeat. much what it costs to employ something like that in the field how much like compared to other things like vehicles how much did that cost although well again if you were to build black powder gun tubes if you knock it out thank thank you for bring some up here when you talk about cost we'll understand that they say bow does not require rifling And in fact, traditional smaller bore Sabo tank guns were in fact smooth bore and many of the new heavier gun tubes are smooth bore. So the cost is minimal. The big thing is finding the material that would work best. Here's one thing that we've experimented with for years. High pressure boiler tube. Scotch boiler tube in a number of different bores. The neat thing is, it can already handle high PSI, and what you're going to do is, you know, again, cut it to whatever length you choose. You're going to end up sealing the chamber, creating a fire touch point, and you need to say, have to have a standoff, a step to the fire chamber at the end of the base of the tube, which is where your grue or powder is primarily going to be chucked, and where the primal hole is going to exist. That's if you're going conventional, just traditional black powder. Now interestingly enough, cost on those on a seamless, thick wall piece of pipe will vary. Sometimes if you're lucky in scrap yards, $20, $30. If you're looking for more sophisticated that boiler tube for instance can be purchased in 40 foot or 50 foot or 60 foot sections, and is cut to spec. Usually, of course, you don't waste any more of that tube than necessary. So most of those tubes are ordered to spec. You're looking at hundreds of dollars per tube, but you're looking at something very reliable with a long service life. So one tube probably up around $2,000 or so, but that one tube would build We'll do the gun tube at about 4 feet. We could do it at 5 or 6. That wouldn't be an option. Well, let's do it that way. We'll go 6 feet. So you have a 20-foot piece to be safe, divided up. Make a couple of 6-footers, 3 6-footers, and then make a little short, stumpy tube out of what's left. Your plugs, everything else, are just off-the-shelf steel. You can use 41, 40 chromoly or 41, 30, but it's not necessary. uh... recoil system if you want to make it a little more sophisticated you can even build up a very simple pre-nineteen hundred recoil system uh... that uh... straps the uh... the gun tube is actually cradled in and uh... all that it does you can either use electronic ignition for fire use of instead of using a fuse a cannon fuse you actually add uh... insert a electronic match So the thing actually would be electronically fired, but it would still require muzzle loading reloads. However, for the cost, probably total no more than $400 to $600 per unit for a sophisticated model. Now, Mike, that includes carriage, that's fixtures, siting system, all nine yards. Yeah. How's Black Powder do as far as performance with explosively formed penetrators? Well, with a SABO you don't need that. With the SABO what you're doing is you're counting on the dart moving at a higher velocity for sheer penetration through whatever existing armors at the other end. And since you're targeting soft skin vehicles, light armored vehicles, or even medium vehicles, in fact I'd fire it on anything because, like I said, I'll take my chances if I place my shot. But for dealing with most of the threats that are out there, this would be a one-shot kill technology. And it's just the penetrator itself is all that's needed. We're talking about cutting a hole straight through like an MRAP. Especially with the, again, it's a matter of what materials you use, but high carbon steel actually works quite well. And then you face harden it so that it's actually, it's a hardened piece of material. There are a number of different tricks that were used in the 50s and 60s at Aberdeen when they were testing different ideas. And remember, you don't want to fire a depleted uranium or even tungsten carbide for training. So they came up with comparable weight and density materials so that they could load a Sabo that would be used for on-range training for armor in whatever caliber, no matter what it was, back in the day. The lowest end we did, I think, was 76.2 millimeter for the last of the Sherman's that were in service that the Marine Corps had. But otherwise, 90 millimeter guns, 105s and 120s have all had discarding SABO. On the Russian side, and this is where we need to look, on the Russian side, they built every, they made every gun SABO capable. Every every field piece from World War two on because they never threw anything away They just upgraded by building the same munitions they would for the bigger newer guns Discarding Sabo in this case was built all the way down to the oldest reserve weapons that they had and to give you an example Most everybody remembers the BMP Well, the BMP had a 73 millimeter light tank gun on board. Remember guys had a pancake turret with a sewer pipe on it Well, that was a smooth bore discarding sable uh... firing uh... any thank god well you know kank got it was a real vehicle to vehicle gone they design with that mission in mind to give it some teeth now i can still do eighty and there were a black powder is sufficient for developing there's a number of other enhancements you can do with uh... regard to uh... additional materials that can be added to the encasement so that you create a base velocity and then an accelerate with a second explosive charge or actually like a Basically like how would you go icing on the cake? You heck you can use a secondary accelerant wrapped around a black powder charge which then of course have fragmentation or whatever around it and that can be used for anti personnel or Anti-vehicular also because remember in many cases that concussive charge is enough to knock something down will penetrate go through a certain amount of ceramic armor or conventional homogeneous armor plate though it's less less effective against that and Don't forget there's also Plastine armor out there in other words Kevlar Now a team most a team can handle it But remember also the armor was built specifically to handle those types of more specialized or sophisticated rounds Sabo defeats all in this is the it's like the you know paper rock scissors, you know game with regard to what armor vehicles have, what kind of armament they're carrying, what is the bouquet of munitions that have been available, and what is dominant at the time. If you go heavier, thicker, efficient, homogeneous armor plate, and your country can make it, it's better, you know, obviously, than you have to try and beat your way through a whole lot more material. If the country gets poorer or they perceive that the more sophisticated munitions that are out there, that are available, are a greater threat, then you start seeing laminate armor, something you see a lot of writing about, especially when the Brits started working with ceramicized armor, ceramic armor. Now ceramic armor came in a couple of different ideas that they don't talk much about because any of you could build ceramic armor. Because when you hear the word ceramic you might think well like you mean like like like bathroom tile Yeah like bathroom tile. Oh wow. Oh wait a minute. Oh wow so anyway With regard to other rounds being made any kind of indirect fire or anti-personnel Charges black powder would work pyro decks can be used and other materials that can be built in good quantity in terms of powders, etc. can be built both for use for direct fire weapons or indirect fire traditional artillery or mortar. And since artillery is expensive and mortars are not, which is what the Russians learned a long time ago, the Russians, especially when they screwed up so badly at the beginning of World War II because the Jewish Communists took over the military generals' command and then screwed millions of their own men, they lost artillery and mass. And in order for the Russians to build back up, they had to embrace mortars because they were more cost effective, quicker and easier to build. Now, you still can get the same HE and other potential out of the high explosive potential out of the round, and the Russians to make up for not having big, big, big guns in inventory built really big actual breach loading mortars that were 240, 310, and 340 millimeter. Now, you go get a tape measure and figure that out. Also, they were massive in size, too. So they were basically mortar, heavy mortar artillery. They never dropped that for the longest time because of the lessons learned of World War II, and they were cost efficient once built to keep around. A mortar is another thing that's probably still the simplest, easiest, quickest system to go to in order to put a lot of indirect firepower out there across the country quickly. So, start looking at mortar construction and understand that something as simple as a colster mortar, which is really weird because we used to have competitions, they're not competitions, but every 4th of July, up at Camp Grayling they used to have an infantry company from modern times and they had a Civil War company come in, Civil War Infantry Union. And they had a side by side demonstration of rifle fire pistols, rifle fire power, uh... gatherings of course for cash on the compare against the machine number the galley wasn't there good numbers the beginning of the civil war one comes in later in addition to that they were of course showing the indirect fire weapons and then the direct fire weapons and obviously the big pluses with the modern direct fire and heavier indirect fire weapons that we all know canons artillery self-propelled rocket self-propelled you know mobile artillery but in the mortars what's interesting is every time The colstrom civil war mortar crew had a higher probability of a first round hit than the American Standard mortar crew with a modern mortar being deployed side by side. And that consistently happened year after year with mortar crews that had nothing to do but work their particular system. The Civil War mortar crew, which by the way, the colstrom mortar go look at it, it's a very unsophisticated device. But amazingly enough, in its basic form, if the crew knew what they were doing and based upon utilizing the technologies of the era, they were able to put around downrange on target first time pretty much every time and then consistently re-hit. Plus or minus on that, I'm not saying we're going back to black powder or everything or muzzle loading everything, but understand that that technology those with a little idea if you take existing off-the-shelf materials combine that with existing simple but yet very sophisticated munitions and remember the neat thing about a table there's no explosive something our car just asking what about using your making an explosive charge uh... with the label you don't have any explosive charges penetration kinetic energy delivery So the neat thing is there's no restriction on it. They can't, you know, you were building a nuclear device. No, that's just a conventional direct fire slug. It's just a very sophisticated slug, is what it comes down to. Again, that's why the term, dart, is appropriate because if you look at the technology for the discarding sub-ball, you will see what I'm talking about. Now, with a shotgun, it's kind of a flog. But still, you know, there are different variations in what has been done. Fiocchi did a fin-stabilized shotgun slug. Like it is, it virtually is a copy of one of the tank rounds that was built about the same time that the BMP's 73mm smooth borer-sable was being built. French had a counterpart. basically fiachi duplicated that technology in image not in the overall materials but in image and create a very flat shooting two hundred yard recapable of a bow uh... shotgun slug that's as accurate as many rifles though there's the advantages accuracy now why is that important well if i do have one shot if i can put it right where i needed and if i'm patient and i put it right where it needs to be that one shot is a kill And that's what you're looking for now. Especially, I'll remind everybody again about battle tanks. Abrams, Leclerc, I don't care what it is, the Challengers, everybody now is into digital imagery. What they don't want you to think about is, no you don't plow through the armor. You know what you shoot at nowadays? In fact, if I had air defense guns that have them pointed down and at the armor immediately, uh... simply of the first the fire control and the accuracy of these weapons is out to thousands of yards and i can put like for instance of theater uh... uh... uh... uh... a gee mini gun in whatever bigger caliber if i point that at the tour of an abrams and i just way all the way it just part of the hell out of it with twenty or thirty millimeter you know uh... a p projectiles Guys, I'm going to rake all the important components off the top of that turret. In fact, it would happen in the first few moments. It takes me longer to tell you about it than it would be for it to happen. And the Abrams literally would be powerless. It would have no effective way to engage or use its weapons. It means that it's the big blinded giant on the battlefield. Now that sounds weird, but it's a fact they don't want anybody to think about because remember, the feudal resist, big battle tanks, oh my god, there's nothing you can do. There's a bread box on top of every main battle tank. Go to YouTube. I want you to go watch videos. If you watch some of the older videos, they used to pixelate those boxes when they were showing images in video. Now, they don't do that now. But here's what's interesting. Why were they doing that? Well, all of your optics, all your fire control, instead of a stereoscopic site system, a mechanical site system, some still have that system on board. Most do not. 99% don't know all the new stuff. It's all based on the idea you're going to keep using these digital imagery technology for that tank to work. So what's the weak point? Well, in order for the digital electronics to be able to see guys, they've got to be able to expose that soft, chewy tissue. Now, if you can kill that with everything you've got, small arms players are going to do damage to the optical shielding. Anything you've got in the way of 50 calibers is going to chew the hell out of the housing, the fixtures. If it gets to the front and you drive it into the front, you've got everybody doing the same thing. If you have a handful of tanks, one at a time or two or three simultaneously, you can engage and start blinding them. Now they're going to be trying to killify you back. So common sense is that you have to deploy. You have to work out and in fact what you do is a program of isolate, you know, separate, segregate and then neutralize. Isolating each of the vehicles through, you know, contact and expansion of their formation. And even if they were to stay concentrated, whoever's up front gets it first. You blind them first, you dump everything on them, you can't, you throw smoke into the area, white phosphorus into the area, you throw anything you've got, but meanwhile, all of your direct-fire weapons that are the heaviest and meanest aim for those bread boxes. You know what the solution on the Abrams is if you destroy that? They actually have a big set of iron sights. Ask a tanker, he'll tell you. they have a big set of iron sights that go on the barrel and you're supposed to kind of line it up approximately to use it can you picture that they actually do that i mean i understand why they did it they better because realistically think about this in a tank battle or exchange of boom and then reload and meanwhile the guys blown back let's say the round scuds along the front of that turret you know your driver supposed to be dodging while your gunner and you by the way your can get a member of the tank you can do this The driver, his job is he sees an obstacle or he sees something come and he can move to get out of the way. It won't make any difference because the fire control in the turret is such that whatever the commander chooses for that turret to do, when he's locking on a target and he has override, or for that matter if the gunner is given control, then no matter how the tank turns underneath that turret, the fire control is going to keep everything on target. Everybody understand that? So in other words, the driver in his self, he's supposed to be shucking and jiving and trying to find terrain to put between him and anything that's incoming. In fact, the driver's job is very, very critical because while the commander may pick the avenue of approach to an objective, In most cases, the driver is given discretion based upon his intelligence and understanding of the size of the vehicle and the accommodations needed to fit the vehicle. This is what I've talked about with regard to team effort with armor or any light armor. You get the feel for this so that you graduate into bigger, heavier pieces of equipment. The biggest problem that they have is if the optics are gone and if you, you know, they really brag up on this, but in reality it is the biggest, weakest point. And it's worse even than when they had vision slits. Okay, years ago, we'll shoot at the vision slits, you'll shoot their eyes out. Okay, in theory that was true, that was what we were doing. You're trying to actually get a bullet in there to where Bob or you know, Heinz is, and you're trying to smack him in the beater. Maybe if you're lucky, put it right through his eye, you'll put his eye out, just like with a BB gun. Only in this case, a high-barred rifle. Now, if you knock out that bread box, then what are they going to do? I mean, now there's other pieces of, I mean, there's other sensory collectors, in other words, there are optical camera collectors at different points. But again, if you rake the vehicle with fires, and especially if you know where to go, how many of you can stay within the area of, say, a pie plate at five, 600 yards or 400 yards? A lot of you can with high-powered whatever you got. All of that is going to do damage, at the very least, to the optical panel that the control systems have to look through. They have a ballistic panel in front of, God knows how many of those they must have in reserve. I don't know how many they could carry on board. They should have at least one or two that have to be in a carry rack, probably the rear of the turret or inside, that you have to be able to dismount that, throw it off, throw it away. slide another one in because if that thing gets scored up or got shield gets gets fried up with say that it's like that if it's a ballistic glass it's breakable not breakable as in shatters like a glass but it is that they distort the image of destroyed the ability for the glass to project the image through itself uh... if it's if it's plastic or a polymer like a weapon on the battlefield most of your round guys are producing massive amounts of energy when they hit And this is, you know, it is, you know, the reaction and or the build-up of kinetic energy and the strike on a target, it is transferred over an area. Well, if you've got spalled and it's set, say, 1000 degrees, 2000 degrees because you've supercharged it, and that splashes on that lexon, well, have you ever seen a lexon when it gets burned? it falls right over so these are things they don't want you to think about because this means that the big dinosaur his weaknesses as eyeball kind of like a cyclops because he doesn't exactly have a whole bunch of other options if that primary system is is is fogged or damage critically he can continue to guesstimate fire but the older two options he's going to put that big fight on the gun if he loses that whole if that bread box got stripped off by the a tank round How he's going to stay in the fight would be rather fascinating to watch. Okay. You can even cheat. There's one thing you can do. Sounds weird. I know there have been people that bragged about it where they had, they lost all the optics. So what do you do? You open up the breach, you look down, adjust the gun tube while you're sitting in one place, load the round, fire, and hopefully it's close enough. But that's kind of precarious, isn't it? That's kind of archaic. So again, remember that if we understand the weaknesses of the aggressor vehicle, all armor can be destroyed. First of all, all armor is made by men. All aircraft are made by men. Either you're going to burn them on the ground or you're going to fry them in the air. You're going to Swiss cheese them in the air. Do whatever you can. If it's armor, you have to look at weaknesses, not the strengths. Understand the strengths are what you are going to now not fire upon you. You're going to avoid, right? You're going to have to waste munitions on. but the weak points are such that they're so critical a weak point that they are devastating to the overall performance of the vehicle we're talking zero ability to engage with primary weapons So there's why knowing how to use all these other technologies we're talking about, that one round in the right place at the right time, means that let's say that they allocate a handful of tanks against you in an area. They're not going to be able to take a legion of tanks and drop them everywhere. They don't have that. This is a big country. They don't have that asset. But what they do deploy, you want to separate from the infantry as quick as you can. And especially if you can psychological, if you can damage. the support technology in the earliest stage of an engagement you're going to radically demoralize the hut hut crew that thought they were to come out and rape, kill, pillage, and burn America. So that's why it's a priority to, again, improvise, adapt, and overcome. Don't forget, in urban environments, there are all kinds of horrible ways you can damage armor. And do it in such a way that it's not even costing you hardly anything to get the job done. but in any other situation where you have force on force and you're an irregular cavalry or an irregular militia then you have to take advantage of terrain you have to understand the ability of the other weapons that you do have and you have to apply them like a diamond cutter and there again that's where discipline or we can't get that within your asset you shouldn't be in charge or don't even tell me you're going to be in charge of something if you would care to do that well then you are not a person to be a decision maker First of all, you have to look at the threat. Well, I have to do this dinosaur hunting because that's really how it is. And there ain't nothing like, you know, especially making a kill. It's psychologically uplifting to the nth degree if you're the guy doing it, trust me. So this is why, again, we need to look at solutions. I mentioned a number of things, white phosphorus, thermite even. Thermite is not as dynamic, white phosphorus is. One of the places that you can acquire white phosphorus charges, you may notice that there's these little cans, and you've seen videos. In fact, you need to go watch some. Go over to YouTube. If you're looking for white phosphorus charges in random or odd places, maybe not so much, is on the battlefield if you have vehicles and equipment that are disabled or that are overrun. uh... you have what are quote-unquote smoke dischargers on almost all of the medium and heavy armored vehicles look like a little rack of launchers which is what they are well that's mocha is what those are white phosphorus projectors and the cool thing is if you're looking for willie peat those are pre-canned electronically fired and they can be improvised quite quickly to become very useful tools a lot of other situations So if you have a derelict or something like that, A, you want to carefully disassemble each of those charges to take them back out of their loading tube. But here's the other thing, if you've got time in a wrench, you want the loading tube, you want the launcher. It carries anywhere from as few as three to as many as five. I think one of the NATO models carries seven charges. Well, you want that, guys. That was designed to project and throw down range what it is that you're trying to take out of it. So if you can, A, first you want to get the charges. If you have enough time and you've got the tools, you always carry the wrenches with you because you'll know what your specs are for the nuts, bolts, and screws that are needed, right? What you do is you, and if you can, you take that whole fixture with you. Now, here's what's going to happen. Depending on how the configuration of model, what you're going to do is take one of those projectors and instead of it being three tubes together, you're going to disassemble that and make each tube an individual launcher. And now you can be creative with it. Instead of one target that somebody can drop something into and it goes boom, you have three, five, or seven launchers that can be separately deployed, much like you would rifle grenades. See how that works? And you know what material is being launched. It's not going to be HE. It's going to be white phosphorus slash, oh, I'm sorry, smoke projector. In reality, that's designed, if you think about how they're using it, what it's for. Remember, on the battlefield, thermal imaging is a common factor, it's a common part of the battlefield, guys. Well, if you launch a bunch of thermal piles out in front of an area where you have armor, doesn't that help to negate the value of the thermal detection technology? I remember I told you about this before, so why would you burn tires in a battlefield situation? Well, One of the things taken into consideration is, again, you create these volcanoes slash chimneys, use a tire, throw some gasoline or diesel oil or crankcase oil in it, throw some other material that's burnable in there if you want to, get it going, and each one of those is a thermal pile that disrupts and in fact devalues the thermal imaging technology. Now is it going to work forever? Well, those tires don't burn forever, but with a sufficient number in use, it's kind of like a mini version of what Saddam Hussein did with the oil fields when he set everything on fire. It wasn't just a deny oil, it was the idea it was a tactical screening weapon. And if you look at the satellite imagery from above, it did a great deal to disrupt what was their original plan for being able to completely monitor and control the battlefield, remember? Oh, that's right. Oh, he was just being vindictive. He was just burning his oat. No, he wasn't. No, no, he wasn't. There was method to the madness there. It wasn't madness. It was common sense. But remember when you have a propaganda machine, you have to tell everybody that whatever the other guy's doing, whether it's stupid, he doesn't know what he's doing. Well, of course, we don't want you to realize what he's doing or understand why he understood that it was a successful, useful tool. See how that works? First rule, ignore most everything any bullshitter says in government during a battlefield environment or anything having to do with any war. It's always designed to puff you up and make you believe you got the best, the other guy doesn't know what he's doing. We need to get more people in uniform, so you always use the same lie. Over and over again, in variations in the theme. Again, contrary to popular belief, it was a lot more successful than they want to admit because, well, again, write whatever bullshit history you want to. The other thing here real quick also is again flame technology in all categories. I will remind you again, please don't do the stuff, the wick, and the bottle full of gasoline. At the very least, understand that if you're going to make a Molotov, you need a high low burn. You need, for instance, diesel fuel and gasoline, crankcase oil and gasoline. Anything that is a viscous, thicker petroleum oil product as half of what you're going to do. Now there's a reason for this. The POL, petroleum oil lubricant products, will rebond and work together and to a degree will work as one. The advantage is by having the high-low burn is that the high burn, you know what happens when you touch off gasoline. You get a big thermal cloud and there's very little burn left on the ground because the blast wave actually takes out part of whatever's been burned or activated because of the calories available. Guess what? If you have a high-low burn mix, what happens is the low burn is brought up to proper flashpoint by the molecular bonding that takes place with the gasoline. and it's picked up to the target and it continues to enhance the high burn it allows for it to take place but it's protracted over a longer period of time and it allows the calories generated to be applied against the target tissue organics that can burn or equipment and munitions probable but but but i guess that finally did get hot enough Now you don't want to stuff that wick into the gasoline. Here's a little cute trick. You pour all your fuels into the container. You seal the container. If you want to keep it ready to use, you wrap the outside of the container with, for instance, medical gauze. Works really well. Rolls of medical gauze. Chunky stuff that may have already been contaminated or something, but you couldn't use it for the troops. Or cotton cloth. You wrap the outside with that. When the time comes, you actually have a little one is basically another container that's full of, again, the high-low burn. And what you do is you can pour that on that wick, that outer wick. And guess what? It's not going to have any effect on getting the combustible inside to blow up on your, blow up in your hand. Most important is make sure that there is none of the combusting agent on the outside of the bottle. Now you want frangible bottles. Don't use a Coke bottle. They don't break well. but you want frangible bottles, glass that's just enough to keep everything where it belongs, but also fragile enough that when you throw it at something, it's going to be very efficient at breaking. So you want to do some research there. Wine bottles, some, like, let's say, all of the Boone's Farm bottles would be perfect. Champagne bottles, not so much. Because champagne bottles are designed to hold pressure, they are under pressure. So they won't break as easily when you throw them at something. However, the wine bottles, especially the champagne bottles, depending upon if they have the deep cleft, can be used for shape charges. That's a project for another day because we've only got a few minutes. And you can make an excellent standoff shape charge from a wine bottle that will punch through three inches of steel comfortably. Oh, do a little research. You'll understand what I'm talking about, but it's not hard to do at all. In fact, it's one of those things where, once again, another throw away from the recycled bin is very, very, very user friendly. Okay. Now, there's another thing, the fulminator strip that we've talked about that can be made, which by the way means that you don't use any flame at all for your Molotov, but instead you make sure that there's no fuel on the outside. wipe everything down, keep everything clean, and then this fulminate tape, which you can actually make in about, takes about an hour, you wrap the jar of the bottle with that, and when you throw it, when the gasoline makes contact with this paper tape that you've made from conventional writing paper, the gasoline combusts, and there's no way to identify where the thing came from, unless they actually see you throw it. So these are little tricks of the trade that work quite well, but remember, we don't want you to be the human torch. uh... some idiots takes over watching too many movies had to happen they were communist so i don't care i hope they keep doing what they were doing but uh... remember book much room pride themselves because they were too busy jiggling stuff around and they were all excitable and i'm sure they watched again like i said i thought it was in a movie we do it that well remember the cops are kinda chasing around try to put about well i three four five oh dot caught fire yeah like two different ones with two different multi yeah yeah Kind of embarrassing when that happens. Our side won't be making those mistakes, right? You guys are all going to do some research, real research. I kind of gave you the, like, put you in the right direction, but you can figure it out from there. Another thing real quick, anti-arbor. If you have the fulminate tape, or if you have flares, or if you have fire on the ground, one gallon wine or vinegar glass jars, glass jugs, they have a nice handle on them. You run those up inside tree cover, but just make sure they don't have branches below, but you run it up over a road network or a road area. You can hold it up with fishing line, better quality fishing line, whatever, and be at a standoff position. And as the vehicle is moved through, if you can stop the column in an area, you snip the line. It's way up in the canopy, so it really isn't noticeable. You also spray paint it with a few browns and greens. The line itself works up through the tree branches and out on an angle, but when you release it, what happens is a gallon jug of flammable comes down, splashes over the objective. Ideally, you want a high-low burn mix on that. And whatever flare pops in or whatever burners are already on the ground, let's say you have a little bit of burning wreckage here, burning wreckage there, all's gonna take us a little bit of splash. And all of a sudden, a nondescript and quiet piece of ordinance drops onto an objective. That could be open hatches in an armored vehicle, that could be a top end of a soft skinned vehicle. Take your pick, whatever it is it dropped on. Even if it drops near, psychologically it's one of those things where, especially at night, it can't really easily be seen. And it appears almost to be indirect fire or fire ordinance of some kind, but it cannot be identified. What's really cool is that the material will burn, the container will pre-fracture. and whatever was holding it especially for using a cotton cotton thread cotton twine polyester twine combination it will burn with the fire and be destroyed as evidence so the of perception is big molotov cocktails or something again if there are no survivors you have to worry about it anyway you let it burn so that they try to get out when they try to get out you already for that that's what the word ambush is all about right So, it's a matter of how many different trade-out ways, how many mix-up ways you can create the same end result, the destruction of the enemy formation, column, or group. So, anyway, we're almost to the top, and it's Weapons Wednesday, hopefully I gave you a few ideas. The black powder, lowest sophisticated, conventional four pounder black powder gun, three or four length brass tube, with the sable would be brought up to the twentieth century twenty-first century for all practical purposes but again it's a single-shot device but even a civil war era black powder uh... or or or reenactment go to any kind bigger small with the table it completely changes the performance of that route of that weapon in terms of what it actually does and it's devastating Solid shot is acceptable. Grape shot works great. All even even today if you have loaded it up with a whole bunch of 44 caliber round ball or a bunch of steel ball bearings and you you know put a back plate on the charge and you spew that all out it's just a big shotgun but it's a horrifying shotgun. But if you can take something like that and drive it out to a thousand yards and it still penetrates two three or four inches of metal pretty darn good. The fact of the matter is that it doesn't even have to do that much. Think about it. How much armor is there actually? Real armor, not ceramic. All of that, again, ceramic is good for certain things. But remember that most of this armor against an AP round, it's not going to do much because, again, it's paper-rock scissors. Okay, different pieces of technology protect against other types of things like shape, charge, hash, help, all the other fun stuff that's out there. So, again, we're planning on using certain technology for neutralizing and then with defense, we are going to use all of the other ideas I just brought up. Ceramic armor is so cheap and easy to make. How about ceramic, steel, and cement? When we're talking about armored trucks, one of the things that we've done is we've gone with a ceramic ferrous cement and steel, 1 1 8 inch and 1 1 quarter inch steel plate. Basically the cement is sandwiched in between. We use a ceramic, we lay ceramic plate in the wet cement as it's being cast to make the panels which are two, three, four foot tall. And the process of course means that you have layered defense, but against rifle rounds completely defeats. Even against .50 caliber does a very good job of slowing everything down. And that's better than something coming through and hitting the soft, chewy stuff inside, which is you. Is it gonna... Oh, and then some idiot right now is telling you, he's never gonna stop a tank round. Well, does the Humvee... Does the Humvee stop a tank round? Is there Humvee armor that stops 120 coming in? Not one, is there, idiot stick? See how stupid that response is? No, it's designed to give you enhanced defense, especially against much of the smaller tech that you're going to run into because the big stuff can't be everywhere. But in addition to that, also it's because of HE. High explosive is going to be all over the place. Fragmentation is the biggest problem. It's like body armor. You need full wraparound body armor. Not because of bullets, it's because of fragmentation. And remember, you're going into the next real world where they start throwing and dropping that stuff whenever they can. A bag full of grenades, okay, or the 40 millimeter grenade launcher. Yeah, you don't want to be down-ranged without something wrong because of that. prior proper planning prevents piss-poor performance were almost to the top for everybody out there forgive me again i think we're going to be able to start the drawings tomorrow or at least if you can uh... liberty at provide dot net the only thing we've got an issue with it we're gonna have to double check this is in the notes we need an address uh... looks to me like they've changed that but uh... if we can guys if there's a way you can put a notation with the uh... paypal donation like we've done in the past we need to confirm that or to buy that it could be done then we have to work another system out for the uh... uh... for the drawings but uh... as it is like i said got everything set to go that's really cool stuff you're gonna love and of course some of it is redundant in that it's perishable so you're going to need more of any way because you probably used up what you want the last time there are certain things that are like that uh... another thing real quick left not least uh... as a policy everybody try to get hold of the survival tabs emergency food rations you can get a bit but k you can get a bit major surplus major surplus as the best price right now but everybody carry one of those in your kit they're designed to fit into a standard can depend container fits into a standard canteen cover but for instant long-term storage mood that is just food it just calories minerals vitamins It's food. It's nothing fancy. They're called food tabs for a reason. It's the old space food slug of stuff. And they work. They've been around a very long time. They were done for SF. They were originally put together for SF, but also for the space program and for a lifeboat emergency or for pilot emergency use decades ago. I assume the system is still cranking them out. And definitely you should have one of those per person in your kit. if you want to you can put it on your backpack with your home with your home load but it would be an ideal solution to mount on your combat load because you always have some food stuff with you and again you've got so many days worth of rations that you're carrying for the price of one canteen cover okay Now, by the way, one of the new flavors is Butterscotch. I have no idea what that tastes like. It says Butterscotch, but I have no idea. However, I have one of the containers that are Butterscotch next to me, just to give you a hint. And they are something that everybody should be investing in. Major Surplus has the best price. I think a little bit of a discount right now. Bud-K has them, and you can probably find them with other sources if you do a search all over the system. Anyway, we should be hearing the music. We are at the top. For everybody out there, guys, again, we appreciate your support. We've got a thing going on in the style of townships, tomorrow, a master project, or exercise, or in other words, normal nuclear devices, so whatever it is. So with that being the case, everybody is right now on alert in this area and across southern Michigan. All the radio grids are up. Got the left hour, Republic. This is the new red order. Ladies and gentlemen, the imparted. It's on the run. We're on the march both day and night. All be good. Thank you very much for your support. And Ed, taking over more LTR coming alive here in just a minute. Now we get out of the way. Here's to you tomorrow.
