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 plan free zones We've got a box or sucking my machine. Yeah, oh, I must be wrong politicians Just get any blunt objects together. All right, if you get corners fashion in the head that seems to work out Keep together, stay sharp before I make it. 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 Tyrant's 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 safe numbers, 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, harass 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 buried. 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? 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 eat God given right. Pray to God, 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 trample each god-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep, and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the past? 998 apiece. Again, if you buy a dozen of them, they are 898. You really can't beat them for what they are. got them up. Actually I had them up before the program. I'm trying to get my card up. That's what you need to do. There we go. I got my... And it's Maelstrom Military Combat Boot Side Zip. I should have mentioned that because that's another nice feature. But let's see what we have left. In the nines there's about 900 pairs. In the nine and a half, about a hundred. Yeah, I knew there was a right way down. And in the tens, 855. So If you get a chance, the inventories are counted there, but the price, you cannot beat this. A, it's $8.98 a pair if you buy a dozen pairs. If you're listening, you got women, kids, and any average size, you know, young adult or adult that wears a nine, nine and a half or 10, you can't beat this. You wear them until they fall apart if that's what you feel like doing. Personally, if I can get a pair of boots for $8.98, I'm going to buy three pairs and I'm going to wear one pair in a number room. You can put a dot on the back, you know, dot one, dot two, dot three. And every third day you're wearing a, well, every day you're wearing a different pair of boots for three days. And that way you can allow the other pair of boots, you know, leave the zipper down, you open them up, turn them upside down, let them air. A lot of guys even make up the PVC breather stands, if you haven't seen that before, with a little cheapy computer fan. and you can dry them out. If you're using boots a lot, then you can't beat this. If you're looking for cash boots, what am I talking about? Well, a lot of people are like, man, I want to have a cash room and have this and that and the other. And boots, by the way, are priceless in the survival situation. You're not going to understand that. For the price mark, for the price of two decent pairs of socks. Yeah. You get boots. Yeah. Put two pairs of socks on your feet and run around and see how long they last. And the big thing about this too is you still, you can find deals on the socks, you can purchase a really nice pair like you said. Better quality sock and that makes all the difference with the boot by the way. Good point there. So if you are looking at, again, picking these up, grab yourself, go look at some of the other deals. Potash are pretty good in the clearance section, some pretty good discounts. And they got some okay prices and good prices and really good prices. on certain items, like any place else, you gotta make a judgment there. They're good for response, they've been always good with me when I've ordered stuff from them as far as making sure that the order's complete. They've even followed up when there was something missing and responded real quick, so you can't complain about them. And again, it's botash.com. And then when you get there, it's Maelstrom, Military Combat, Side Zip Boot. Now there's two different ad sections. Ignore the first one because those are out. I don't know why they leave that stuff up there, but they do. The one you're looking for, you actually have just the three pairs. In fact, let me double check the image here, which shows up on the page. I can get it back to the page. it did there are the one has a book and parent black pair side by side in the uh... uh... base image what you want is the uh... uh... can both by itself uh... there's not to be a black one in the next box or anything like that it's they're kind of free standing this particular one is we get the number right for its mails drum m two zero nine one the these are in stock i'm looking right at them they have more than enough Whoever's out there, you got a bunch of people, you got to put boots on. No, they're not big sizes. I wish they were. I'd be buying a dozen of these for myself. Seriously, just simply because if I could get them of my size, I can't. But for any of you who can, you can't beat this. So if you've got a bunch of people out for this especially I always hear about man I can only afford one over three of no, okay This way you can afford all of and get everybody on the same page. This is a start It's not it's not the end. It's not the the solution to everything but it is a start For getting some of your people squared away so that they've got some working gear especially if you're training you don't want to you don't have to beat up your best equipment your best equipment's going to go down the road with you that last time when you leave the garage or you know step out of the van jump out of the back of the truck and you're heading down the road you're not going back to replace anything you're going into combat and you may be going you know one way for a very long time there's where your best gear stands and I still carry a pair of these hanging on the backpack seriously I've always you know I like the cheapie. This is what everybody gets crazy about. They're cheap jungle boots. Can't find them anymore. Used to buy them for $7, $8, $9. Actually, $6.95 a pair is what my base price was for jungle boots. I always folded up a pair of those because they are cheap, okay? But you can flatten them out. I put a pair in the backpack. Big advantage is if my boots get really stinking wet, and I mean that happens. You just get mucked up all across the board. You're damp. You're squishy. uh... your cut your tired guess what told you a million times you take the uh... take the wet stuff off uh... open everything up best you can those stocks are going off to the side but you pull out a new pair of socks you dry your feet off real quick to put a new pair of socks on with some put powder real quick and then you're able to put another pair of dry boots on all due to your back to zero zero hundred percent you are there your feet, everything follows your feet when you're in the field. Why? Well, you see that 80-pound pack laying there or that 80 pounds worth of junk you think you're going to carry? It's all applied to that same little space down below. No matter how many times you step, you can't adjust enough. It's still only so many square inches where your weight is applied. And it makes a big, big difference if you can keep yourself that much more efficient for any period of time. Just give yourself a respite. And again, meanwhile, you hang those other boots upside down, you open up, pull the laces back on everything, unzip the side. If they got the side zippers on your fans, you go to meet in town, the $200 boots, and that way they can air out and breathe. You hang them from the backpack, let them breathe, let the sun get to them, let the bacteria die out there too to set them up. But it's the idea that now you got another pair to work with, and while you're traveling, moving, you're doing traveling rather than overwatch or bounding overwatch, you know, you're in travel mode. or if you're finally at a point where you're at a rest area on R&R site, you got another pair of shoes to wear. Now you can also do flip-flops, that sounds weird, but you know what? You can do flip-flops. If you're like in an encampment, you're trying to really lighten stuff up, pair of flip-flops. I don't care what the hell you use, it's just the idea that second pair of something and it doesn't need to be heavy heavy duty, but it needs to be good enough that it's going to keep your feet from having something ram up through below like, you know, bruising your feet with a stone chunk of metal. Get cut. Don't want that. so again this gives you an alternate solution but in this case these are a lot better shoe than you might be surprised when you're when i keep saying i a you know not eight ninety eight a pair okay everybody's i'm sure like well you know just fall apart a day or two not the ones everybody i know has everybody's got these has been beaten the get beaten the snout out of them and maelstrom it does okay i don't know if they're slave labor in america from the prison system i don't know if they're doing china sport korea because the everybody forgets a lot of stuff does come from south korea This could be from Indonesia. I haven't looked at any of the labels on the ones. I've got one pair left right now and I kind of screwed up. I put them somewhere else, so I'm going to have to go check them out. But somebody else needs them, so they're probably going to be gone either tonight or tomorrow. That'll be the last pair of the first dozen that we bought. And I just find homes for them as we go. So every time somebody shows up, I'm out fitting blah, blah, blah. It's like, really? How many people have you got size nine, size nine and a half, size 10? We'll go forward. They're good. Oh, yes. Well, maybe we all everybody can wear those good everybody sit down now We figure out who fits what pair and by the way get two pairs at least or get three You know if you can if you only forward one because they get you on the table I'm not gonna even say that what they're worried about that. Okay, just good fantastic run with it. Okay, so one more time. It's over a bow cash BOT a CH and Maelstrom military combat side zip boot the item number the SKU number is Maelstrom M-A-E-L-S-T-R-O-M just in case you did not spell Maelstrom like a store lot with a Maelstrom down with a... I don't think I want to hide with that one. Anyway it's Maelstrom M-2-0-9-1-Z that's Michael 2-0-9-1-Z easy six pound weight for the pair of boots and side zip and nothing right home about just a regular utility grade pair of $10 well $9 boots if you do it right plus shipping gotta still do shipping they do have good sizes so we got that squared away and as a matter of fact I am going to do something while I'm you while you're listening I am adding another actually I'm looking at my or another I am adding another eight of the size tens And that will give me a total of 24 pairs that we're going to be ordering again. I'll probably add more this afternoon when we're done with the program simply because it's that time. I had quite a few good meetings over the weekend. I'm going to say hi to Dre and also to Battle Creek. You guys in Battle Creek doing a great job. Double plus good thumbs up. I got a chance to look at some new pieces. mechanized that are out about they were down there in the Hillsdale area with the 8th Regimental Combat Team deployed squadron and those guys are having fun on the road by the way but the big thing here again is safety equipment another thing that they showed me that I just kind of should remind everybody about guys towing equipment you know toe a chains, toe cables, lifter straps lifting straps or something that you know you can find them all over the place but people kind of ignore them But it's awfully darn handy if you have lifting straps. You can get, uh, you give me a squat and I can move a motor and you won't even know you're lifting it. Actually, one of the classes I used to do years ago when we had the Bren gun carriers here, I'd say we gotta move this motor. It's a transmission attached, all iron, transmission attached to a Ford flathead V8 with everything on board. And they'd look at that and say, okay, here's how we're gonna do this. Everybody turns sideways and steps towards the motor. reach out with your right hand. Everybody grab a spot on that motor. Everybody get hold of something, or you can get your hand underneath it, you can get your hand hold, I don't care what you grab hold of, as long as something's not gonna break, and I doubt anything will, because it's built by World War II standard. Now when I tell you to, I want everybody to lift, and then after that I'm gonna tell you to shift in southeast or west, and I'm gonna point something out. North is behind me, I'm at Compass North. So when I say shuffle north, you're going to lift straight up and then we're going to shuffle in my direction. If I tell you to move in another direction, before I do that, we will stop. Everybody will carefully set it down, but not let go of the motor. We moved that motor anywhere we wanted to. Nobody was straight, nobody got hurt, nobody had crushed toes, nobody was stumbling around. Everybody paid attention and again, you do a little crab walk and we can move that motor without any problem. Now with carrier straps or cargo straps, you can do the same thing. with other items. And the more straps you have, the more people can assist. The more people can assist, the more horsepower you have lifting. Mechanical horsepower is nice when you can do it in the form of a chain hoist or a lift or whatever, but you don't always have that. And in the field, you got to move fast. So if you have 10, 12, 14 people standing there bare butt naked hanging in the wind there, guess what? Break out the Pioneer equipment and get the job done real quick. Everybody pitch in. This can be clearing and obstruction. This can be moving a piece of equipment that's fallen off a machine or has been blown off a machine. Remember, there's all kinds of stuff you're going to run into in the field. This is part of your recovery equipment, and it should be in each vehicle. We are scavengers. Remember that. Scavengers, 100%. I will carry away everything. Hell, if I could carry the whole damn vehicle away, if I can get my recovery unit up there, we'll pull the whole vehicle out of there. If I have something the enemy's lost, it's going to be my gain. All of you need to be thinking that way. Remember another thing, tow hooks and chains. You might find something that, no we can't fix it right here, but Bob says we can fix it if we can get it back where we need to. We may have shot the snot out of the enemy piece of equipment, but we've not done as much damage as you might think. We stopped it, we killed them. Now we need to rework the technology. Well guess what? We're going to do that. We'll be able to pull her off the battlefield. Need to be able to, again, patch tires in the field. Be able to air things up. A lot of our vehicles have compressors on board anyway, but that's another little thing you need to add if you don't have it. And there are some really great videos on YouTube. I can tell you, use YouTube for our purposes. One of the neat things that they have out there, if you look around, are all kinds of different conversions for everything from motor packs to compressor, high-speed compressors. from other items such as air conditioning, compressor units, freezer units, anything you can imagine, all kinds of stuff where you can put a system into another application and make it small, fast, and easy. Also robust, so the neat thing is you can actually bolt the sucker right to a piece of equipment and leave it right there with a cover so that when you need it, you just pop the cover. Then the rig is sitting right there, all you do is hit the switch or plug it in with power. In other words, it doesn't have to be hooked up all the time. I don't need to make it an accidental bleed. Remember, that's another problem with vehicles. Some can bleed because your hardware is something you didn't need to. Leave it disconnected if you can. That way you plug it in only when you need it and when you got it, it works. Big thing is weatherize it so that it doesn't get all beat that's not just being out there with a vehicle. There's a paint, lots of grease. Whenever possible. Layers of paint, lots of grease. Anyway, a couple other things, and by the way, one more time, okay, for Randy there, BoTash, because Randy has just said, what was that again? Was it, it was an SH? No, no, BoTash. I know, it sounds like it says SH. C-H-O-T-A-C-H dot com, and then it's the Maelstrom Boots ZipSide 998 a pair if you buy one pair, or less than a dozen, but if you buy a dozen, they drop down to 898. Next. Ed brought this to my attention and it doesn't surprise me in any way, shape or form, but if you have seen it in your area, please give us a heads up. It might have just passed so quick. Well, you know, Veeber lost wages. Oh Veeber lost wages. Oh Veeber, the mafia's running lost wages. And you know the mafia's running lost wages. You watch the movie Casino, right? You've seen all kinds of movies where they even joke or they don't joke. This is the Colossal. He runs the casino machinini. I mean the Gables casino. Yeah, yeah, we call it the Gables here. And all the money is laundered toward the casino. So what does a casino produce other than misery? Well, nothing, right? And is it, yeah, I'm the pecking order. Let me ask you something. What is, and you know, this is a joke with Obama and the rest of the turds that are money laundering right now, because the petal meat puppet run by obama who's being run by the north side jewish mafia out of chicago you don't know that right you want to really talk about the mafia you want to talk about the jewish mafia on the north side of chicago of allory jared the iranian jew is from valerie jared the iranian jew who now blag that she's doing with my then course you don't have to babysit him as much he kind of dribble from himself he just talking over the corner you stand still like a vegetable Meanwhile, over in the other dark corner, there's Obama sitting there, and he's really making all the choices, and Valerie is over there to make sure he goes to bed every night, just like she did when she was in the outhouse with Obama for eight thinkin' years. I'm telling ya. So anyway, would you say that, uh, in the pecking order of things, bridges are probably pretty important. Wouldn't you say you don't want to go over a bridge in here? Eh, fk, ahh, and then, And then, I'm trapped under a beam in my car. No, that's not good, is it? Another one. Oh, God, railroads would be a good idea to make sure they're functioning. Oh, by the way, the worst combination. Bridges and trains. Ah! Oh, you're trapped in a train car. Scratching at the windows you can't get out because they're made out of ballistic Lexan and bulletproof up to 30 out six Well bullet resistant nothing bulletproof. I'm sure a 20 would get through but an out six won't so anyway Yeah, there you are the train car and now you hear the you know They're offering free drinks and you're slipping beneath the waves and the bridges failed because nobody maintained it because the federal governor's got little brown envelopes or they just told them not to inspect Then the bridge went down and the train went over the bridge and into the water. And then the band is playing over the speaker. Oh wait a minute, the band already checked it. They actually know how to get out. But there's some music, you know, near my god to thee and your ankles are getting wet and the water's cold and... Yeah. So anyway, I'd say that was important infrastructure. Highways might be nice. Roads would be good. Potholes that aren't the size of, you know, tank shell, you know, impacts would be nice. Let's see, hey, how about if we completed not with the 5G, you know, fire brain crap, but with, how about just fiber optics, finishing what we started decades ago? which they haven't done. I mean, we got all kinds of fiber optics, and granted, the private businesses are supposed to care of that, but doesn't government like spying? I mean, I know what's going on. They want to spy on the wireless because the wireless doesn't require all of the administrative paperwork, whereas the fiber optic is covered under the, no, that's right, the law, the rules, that thing about wiretapping. Yeah. So I guess they can't really get away with it that easily unless we let them get away with it. So here again, this is where there's all kinds of other things that should be fixed. So where would you put casinos on the pecking order of the national infrastructure? What does lost wages produce for us? I mean, granted, it moves money. It's like a toilet flush hole for all the rest of the country, including Alaska, which by the way, has its own casinos too. But still, everybody has to get a free-cheat flight to go to Nevada, so then go to, I mean, the airlines cooperate with it, and they hand all this, they hand money by the gobs over to them until they all bought into the Corona Beer Virus scam. And once they bought into the Corona Beer Virus scam, well, it was good for the goose, it was good for the goosey. And lo and behold, guess what? They kind of had to follow the crazy, bizarre, bug-eyed rules that they established for all the rest of the peasants. Okay, so everybody else took the hit and critical infrastructure really took a hit because of lack of work and now it's lack of workers So where would the Las Vegas be wouldn't it be like the very last of the last? I can't think of anything that'd be less important than having people take what money they have out to some of the Location and give it to some other stranger so they can money-launder it and take it overseas to IFA Tel Aviv or maybe Sicily Okay, but why? And yet, the big announcement as a sidebar, as Ed pointed out here, they just kind of slipped it in. They're talking about, oh, they're reopening Vegas. The buffets are open. Hey, the buffet is open down the street here that one of our neighbors runs. And if I give the money to him. was probably going to leave by somewhat locally and and he's actually somebody that i kind of recognize so i i could do that and all that but i i don't lose any other money in the process i don't really gain a whole lot by getting on the plane ride it crotch net and i get grope by some petal flash queer slash lesbian depending on the women the women are the lesbians obviously although maybe there's a cross-driving guy who thinks he's a girl who really think he has decided to declare that it's a little lesbian Yeah, whatever. I don't have to go through the airlines terminal BS. I don't have to act like a slave. I don't have to ride an aluminum tube with a bunch of bug eyed nutcase cases who want to wear a face bra. I don't have to land at the airport and then be bug eyed by a whole bunch of cops and black uniforms and then go to the casino where I'm constantly eyeballed and if it looks like I'm winning something, the casino itself would try to kill me. Right? But looks like I'm really winning. You've seen that. Oh, he's winning too much. Well, yeah, that was my plan. I came here to win some money. All your evil... Oh, listen, Blats and Steenblats and Steen and Colwin are sending the knuckle-dagging goyim girls to come and kill you. Oh, hey, right there in the casino. You can watch a dozen movies on that one, can't you? It's rigged so that you don't win, and if you are winning, they know you up to something. Yeah, you are up to... You up-pued your count... My favorite is this on the casinos. Counting the cards! Isn't that what I'm supposed to be doing? let's think about that high on the brainless mindless one i'd pop myself here and i i aim with what we just go to get me don't get me take my money what it should be doing take my money don't take my money but now i will give you my money therefore you can't take it but take my money go ahead take my money take money again all i lost all of the private take my money so remember calling he's calling all of i would hope that he is i would hope anybody going there is what that makes sense You know stupid some of this stuff is but they got every go. Oh my god those poor multi-billionaire casino operations That guy was zapping him for thousands cuz he was counting the cards I hope they killed the bastard did they did they smash his hand like the guys in the movie casino where they smack remember that you Smack him with a hammer. Oh, he deserved that. Wait a minute. I'm a bookkeeper. I'm from Detroit I'm guy came in on a $76 flight what? here's the thing might be able to talk about four or five billion dollars if he hasn't already couldn't complete they want money during the cold with your car over there by respect now now that four five billion could be put towards maybe about manufacturing where we get something for the money all it could be put towards roads where we kept something for the money could be put towards making our bridges safe so we get really something for our money like a safe drive. Do you think? Somehow sending all of those billions of dollars out to carpet sweep slash suck hole Las Vegas doesn't make a whole lot of sense, does it? In fact, you gotta step back and scratch your arse and go, what the hell is this garbage? So just a heads up there, there's things when you see them you kind of go, ha! But watch all the movies about Vegas and I mean... Hell, if you go there, you might end up in a cattle corral in front of a big pyramid where a bunch of occultists have some other occultists shoot you in the cage so they can do a snuff video on big screens in the pyramid and watch all the people who are listening to country western music get shot dead, dead, dead in so many different ways. And they were probably even betting on who the shooters could hit in the next batch. Look, they got a big screen here, it's the size of the whole room. Oh look, that gallium blob, she's gonna get it, I'm telling you. She's gonna be, oh no, the guy next to her got it. I'll bet you $15, she doesn't, oh $100, no $400. The gallium doesn't make it off the screen, watch. Oh, got her right in the, right in the, right in the schnag. Oh, that was a good shot. Because that's what really happened with the Vegas shooting. Ignore all the other, meh, they've generated. Understand, that was a whole bunch of Satanists looking down below like a football game when they locked all the gates. inside the big rectangular construction site turned into a country western man's side. And all the vendors said, first time ever, they walked around and they locked all the gates before every, instead of opening everything up the way they normally would towards the end so everybody could just leave, they locked all the gates so that nobody could get out. And then the shooting started. Oig of, I would have, well. I would be looking at that big black pyramid, the thing that they kept not wanting you to look at. You know, the big black occult pyramid. Yeah, I don't care about the rest. I understand completely what's going on. Anyway, land of the fee and the home of the slave. Send more cash to the even. Cash stripped. Oh, Las Vegas. Thank goodness that some, thank goodness government put a gun to your head. so they could give Las Vegas a whole bunch of your... And by the way, you just need to jump on that plane so Homeland Security can sniff your crotch and feel your gonads. Yeah, just so much pleasure in flying. No, there's not. It's not worth it at all completely. Anyway, let's see next, oh, we're at the bottom of the hour. Edward, I'll tell you what, I have a plate that just flat out for a reason. Eighth Regimental Combat Team. These guys did a really good job this weekend. Their theme is... Worst day since yesterday, so bottom of the hour piece. How about we do worst day since yesterday. We'll get those one music piece at a time, one song. H.R.C.T. Well done for good work. I really love some of the pictures you guys sent, we appreciate that. And mostly against, 6 Squadron 2 and Squadron 4, where the guys were busy this weekend. understand again with our friends that came over from the west side and for the individuals who came up from just over the Ohio border everybody had a great time and the good work now and by the way one more time that was worst day since yesterday might have been a hint there by then yeah of course and Floggin Molly is the name of the band I always say Klotz Blue the L or East Coast America slash Boston Baltimore parts of New York yeah you know so there's still some stuff on the docks by comparison real quick jg sales dot com you know we were talking about some sick to my thirty-nine rifles last week and somebody pointed out something i want to look at the pioneer arms polish a cam forty eight eight k m forty seven style somehow a rifle uh... pioneer arms dog anybody do any background on these like find out a little bit more got all right features the polls did do the uh... right after the fall wall is chart changing out there a case a little bit And the grip that's on that's got a little bit of a modification. Now, this is a basic plain-jane rifle, which, to be quite honest, is what I'd prefer in an AK. I don't really have a whole lot of use for all of the picketing on the AK. Again, it's a sleeked-out gun, just like the AR-15 in its original configuration. So the A1 is actually a pretty desirable gun. Few rails here and there are nice, but, you know, eventually we got to the point where we're like porcupines. Of course you can't mount anything or what most people don't realize with the Picatinny rails like on the AR you use those as your fixture assembly or control points for doing gun stations on a weapon to stabilize the platform. You create adjusters, you know, all you got those quad rails, you know, the four points, come back closest to the receiver and actually lock in the fixture that way. You go with a zero block up front, no, with a regular gas block, no A-frame, no original A-frame. And what this gives you is a gunport friendly weapon system. Fast amount, easy to dismount, you keep doing little spring connectors, there's all kinds of neat stuff you guys have done. There are two patterns, one is permanent lock because it's a coax gun. Everybody goes, what, an AK or something like that? Yeah, sure, they are an AK, why not? AR is a better choice for this by the way, because there's no recoil buffer system does all the work and therefore there's less stress on the fixture. That's one of the big advantages of the AR. The long drawn out recoil stroke makes a big difference and it's one of the advantages of using it for a fixture gun. However, the big thing there is you can use a set of beta drum systems or you can use larger stick mags and you've got more than a fair power for a gun port, rear security gun, vehicle coaxial gun if you want to, you know, again, poor man's solution until you get belt fed. is again one of the ideas here in the picture to make it work is so stupid to kill us and again there's two options for your gun man what you can use to you can also use like that because it's not that large a port point and uh... there's a couple of other solutions that people have come up with but it's uh... an idea anyway Far Cry from that doesn't make it on an AR. Pioneer Arms Polish AKM-47, they're running $800 a piece of JG sales just to look at them though to give you an idea what I'm talking about. You can go check out the weapon. I've seen a little bit from this Pioneer Arms manufacturing but I don't know if they're 100% American made. In fact, let me look to see if there's anything that indicates that. Because there are quite a few all-american made AKs with, you know, parts inventories coming in. Okay, the Ergo pistol grip is by Phoenix Tech. They cut muzzle brake, that's fine. You can change that out if you want to later. 130 round mag. At least it comes with a magazine. That's half the battle in Almenace, by the way. Remember for a while they were, or it's certainly the gun, but we're just a short mag. You mean you stole the magazine from the factory? You stole the magazine from the factory? You buggers! Anyway, they don't do that right now. Not that they know of anyway. Um, the other one here, and I know I've had a bunch of people ask me about these and I, I'm familiar with them. I've seen the abuse paperwork on it and the videos, uh, as far as how successful the thing is, but K E arms, KP 15, monolithic AR, lower receiver and buttstock stripped black polymer new $110 now. For what these are, if you're going to buy an AR, if you're going to buy an AR lower, one of the nice things price-wise, it's not bad, it's still papered, this is an FFL item, okay, but it has the bucket slash bell type magazine well, really do like. It's got a solid trigger guard, you can't do the snow guard, but it's a bigger trigger finger area, you know, accommodation so you can get a glove finger in there. But this is a solid lower receiver and buttstock. Now it's a fixed buttstock system, which I like. I prefer the A1s and A2s and a 20 inch barrel if at all possible on the gun. But whatever configuration, still the solid stock. This is supposed to take a lot of abuse. They've been doing videos where they've run over these things, they beat the literally beat the gun sideways, and there's no faking that. They're swinging like a baseball bat. against a fixed object, a pipe, a pole, and then they turn right around and fire the weapon right there, period. They don't hesitate, there's no break in the film, et cetera, and there's a lot of other people that I'm certainly aren't gonna probably play that game with the receiver, but they've done a lot of other abuse tests just to see what it can handle. And for what these are, for $110, the buttstock's there, the lower receiver group is there, it's all one piece, all one module. But I can't see it being a wear issue for a very very very very long time and There are some tricks even with the polymers like we've mentioned But nobody else is talking if they ever got tired I would do steel inserts into the pin channels and they wouldn't be tired anymore There's all kinds of things are not even talking about polymers these Polymer receivers should be around for half a century if not maybe a whole century not because they were sitting on the shelf either they should be around for a good long time we could even modify or fix air 15 tired receivers this was a program Aberdeen actually worked out years ago for a World War three scenario Aberdeen did all of our mechanical testing years ago and the the big thing was how can we make things that get broken or worn out tired we can't rebuild and we can't build how can we rebuild or extend the life on them to give us a little more time till we get the factories up that we need. And so all these little widget ideas have already been worked out. And with the polymer, it's real easy because the steel inserts don't need to be all that tough. I mean, it doesn't have to be best end metal, and it would still be more than serviceable enough because remember, the pins pretty well fit. You know, they're fixed items. They're not rolling around moving around though. They're gonna take energy but the sheet metal flash insert panhead type our Liners would be more than enough to deal with a problem. So anyway We're way before that. These are brand new. This is a brand new item and it's ke arms KP 15 monolithic air lower receiver and buttstock strip black polymer brand new and You have to ship it is it's considered. It is a lower receiver It's just a lot bigger one than you're normally used to because of the light. I will say this. That's another thing I really... The AR-15 buttstock in the light rifle design is no different from the AK buttstock in that it is a weak point on the gun. If you're not familiar with the warnings, how many of you are my age, how many of you were warned and warned and warned about what not to do with the M16 that we used to do with the M14? Remember when you go to ground to prone? Remember what they told you not to do and if you were going to fall to the ground you would drop your hand to the base of the buttstock to reinforce it on impact so that it shoves the buttstock down but doesn't put undue arcing pressure, you know, leverage and pressure on the upper end of the buffer tube towards the receiver and snap it off. Anybody remember that? I do. Well, this kind of eliminates that to a degree because of the way the design reinforces the buttstock, which of course then when the buffer tube, when everything is installed, everything is where it's supposed to be, you don't have that issue. At least not to the degree, it's actually stronger. This also of course supports the pistol grip, which is not likely to be busted off. That's one of the least likely things I'm worried about. But it can happen. I've seen it a few times only twice and it had was a major impact and then even then it did you know the one time it distorted the screw hole it was that much of an impact because it came down the weapon was standing upright piece of was on the back of a deuce and a half came down took the pistol grip and Pulled it right out. Well, it sheared the threads didn't bust up directly gone but it was a it was owed D watt from that point forward because the screw out right through the aluminum right out there and bear it the entire goes into it. Remember the pistol grip got a little pin in the screw that holds in place just like everything else on Stoner's design there. So that weapon went back to the arsenal and needless to say I am sure that Ruiz DX because government has more money coming from you and me every day. It can happen, not likely, but it can happen. This would probably be less likely. seeing how resilient these particular receivers are. They are an interesting idea and so much so that I would, you know, again recommend if you're looking to, you know, build something right now and you're looking for also a cash cut, they're stronger. Plastic, not going to oxidize. I've talked about that before. Everything has a useful niche. The five pound plastic comes when you're done. If you do a polymer lower and a polymer upper, you're looking at five pounds for a rifle. You can afford to carry another rifle on a backpack that way. In fact, you've seen the latest big thing for these rifle bags, although they're too big, once they're opened up, they're designed for a full rifle with a scope, etc. But the back with the shoulder gun sleeve, or forgive me, the center gun sleeve, built into the backpack for an assembled gun. Now, it's a neat idea, but you don't need that much with an AR-15. However, the same idea, if you were to apply it, Uh, is a way to carry a complete spare rifle or be able to carry more rifles in with the, the home load. Uh, let's say that you're going in as, you know, a farming, you know, we've talked about, I'm gonna be like Special Forces. Okay, well, you need a certain number of additional weapons. I'm gonna go kill the enemy. That sounds really nice, but you can't kill enough of them fast enough to help 50 number of people you're planning on equipping initially. So carrying more weapons in so you can go kill that sentry or that poor driver who thought he was safe sucking on the cigarette while he's waiting for the boss who's in the office, etc, etc. Take your pick, checkpoint that you exterminate, you get three, four, five guns, you've got 25, 30 people. You still have to do a lot more work. Now granted, it takes, it will eventually get what you want, but if you go in carrying more, This gives you auxiliary weapons, this gives you auxiliary defense weapons, something I have to remind you about. Remember, you should have in the defense 110% of the weapons that you need to fight. You hear what I said? 110% of what you need to fight. What do you mean? I need more than I would, well, yeah, as a matter of fact, yes. And the reason for that is pretty straightforward in that You are going to be losing weapons. You know, here's the thing both sides. Let's look at realistically what's going on You're exchanging rounds to tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic- ATF agent or you know who part of the gun confiscation overrun your position and Guess what you're gonna have time to scramble you for barely can hear you were with your wherewithal with you turn fall back to the next defensive position Why well the other guy next to you is either dead or wounded and he ain't moving real quick So you were able to pull yourself out of the position and fall back to the next fighting position that was already prepared and and auxiliary weapons should be in place and on standby. You were coached that, right? You were taught that. Anybody who knows anything about defense in depth knows this, right? So that extra 25%, 10%, 25% in weapons means that immediately you can pick a weapon up and contribute to the defense. That's why you have extras. because of all the ways that you can get disarmed hell the gun company weapon you're holding could be shot you know everybody forget that kind of like they joked about it in survivors the movie but in reality everything can get busted up your backpack could be full would you leak it like a sieve we got goo and stuff all over your food equipment why could your backpack was up on an unexposed was exposed but the rest you was under cover and the bad guys figure shoot something maybe i'll hit you Well, you know, you lost everything in your backpack. Well, maybe not everything, but you'll find out after that. Well, guess what? Meanwhile, your weapon took a hit from the front handguard, got a hole in it, barrel's not quite straight. We aren't going to pull the trigger on that gun. Of course, we are going to take it with us, because we might have parts and pieces back behind me that I have to reassemble because your gun's got an upper broken, and I got another lower AR broken. I can pop two pins. I can put a gun together from pieces. But I'm taking it with me. Don't leave it behind. Go ahead, call your Japan there. What do you got? Yes, Garza. Every time you mention your gun can get shot, I think back to that comic book from when I was a kid, Sergeant Rock, and he's parachuting in and they shot his, it's 45, what, Thompson. They got my chopper. I remember that every time you say they can shoot by God, that goes by the mail. It was five, six years old. That was a long time ago. Well, you know what? Let's go back to the Gordon Call ambush, guys. Okay, Gordon Call, when they ambushed him to try and murder him, remember his son was wearing his jacket and hat and was behind the steering wheel. And the cops claimed that his son pulled the gun and was shooting at people, right? Here's the problem. It was an assassination attempt and the first person that was shot was your recall Guess what? You already was wearing his 45 legally in a shoulder holster a pancake type to the front That's what saved his life Because the 30-06 round that was fired by the assassin hit right where we're supposed to and what happened is that out six round crushed that 45 Now the spalled from that is what hit, he went into Yuri's, you know, gut. Okay, hit him in the stomach. But instead of it blowing his chest out, it splattered and it was a combination of the bullet and probably was the bullet and fragmentation from his 1911 that was destroyed. So the whole argument that he had pulled his gun and he shot, well then how did you shoot him in the, how did you shoot him in his weapon, with his weapon in the shoulder holster? Well, you're not supposed to think about that. Oh yeah I am, uh yeah I am. Cause they even argued to describe how he pulled his .45 and he must have been wailing away and blah blah blah, no he wasn't. They fired first, they fired to assassinate all the bullets that came in on Yuri because Yuri was behind the steering wheel with his dad's hat and his dad's Kodak. It demonstrates it was an assassination attempt. And even then, again, what was hit? The one weapon he had, he had a 1911 with him and it flattened the 1911 right to his chest. Now that didn't hurt, that didn't help him either, so I'm sure he had some dingus going on there with, you know, again, fragmentation. But it was the pistol that saved him. It also meant the pistol was out of service. See, you can't make those. I have told you before, better to have too much than not enough, especially in the field. Now the other important thing is whenever possible try to get everybody on the same page because okay you shot him in the 45 but he might still have some spare mags. Be nice if you're picking up another gun it's basically the same gun and or in this case, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck to go on one of these KERMPKP15 lowers, you're still gonna buy an internals kit, you can find those relatively cheap right now still, I just looked and that's the one thing you can find are the internals for the moment. Not a lot, but I'm not gonna go top end, I'd go bargain basement, I'd go bargain basement on the internals, this is a cash gun or it's a porta gun, another weapon's gonna be stuck somewhere safe. But the big thing is the weight. If you do a skeletal minimal folding stock, in conjunction with a polymer lower, a polymer upper, and use a polymer PMAG or whatever, a hex mag, you can keep the gun's weight at about four pounds, I think it's four pounds, 12 and a half ounces is what we got it to. So you figure that out. Go with ultra lightweight, not the fanciest, not the most sophisticated anything. I know that there are polymer internals too, but I wouldn't go that way. The one place where I wouldn't shift on that for the moment, if I was really wanting to crank a bunch out and the price was right, yes. Then I could make it even that much less susceptible to oxidation. Any place where I can take components that are not going to turn into white powdery dust or red rust, if I can do that, a berry gun, that's Remember, I can then prioritize my storage where I need to, where it's critical to ammunition, magazines, and needless to say, ensuring that anything that is still full metal to the int degree, and again, if I'm storing it, it needs to probably be grease, not oil. Grease it, oil it. You can always wipe it off, and remember, don't throw that oily rag away that you just that greasy rag, because guess what? That's a lubricant. So you get a little Ziploc bag and you clean off the excess grease, take that little cloth or a series of cloth or even paper towels, you put them inside a Ziploc bag. That's all lubricant down the road because right now if you had to dig something up, you haven't got anything. You're a poor man. You wouldn't be digging that cash up if you weren't in trouble. So everything man-made and everything that you've got there, you need. until you get better. And even if you do, you take what you have leftover and you make up another cash and you put it somewhere because you might need it again. Anyway, we're at the top. We're going to need to take a break. We are at the top here. It is Monday. Beautiful day. You know, the right to bear arms because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not the 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 put you out of office or suck on my machine gun. 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. As a shield from tyranny, for future generations this legacy we gave. In this the last free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we 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. 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 about the current news and the 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-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, 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 what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave, O sons of the Republic? defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God-given right, and pray to God, for freedom will be bright, as Iowocke 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the afternoon. Intelligence report time are curvy. 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 south. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, Liberty Tree Radio on satellite, and we are on AM&FM microstations, CB base stations, and UltraNet Hallmark and Golden Spike technologies east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, east, and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there. We're 49 including the great state of Jefferson along with CONUS, the outline two states, territories and the clock. It is 609 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. It is, well, it's Monday, yes, but we're past the work day almost for everybody. It's the 24th of May. It is the 13th year of open Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialists. occupation of america with a k two thousand twenty one older calender two thousand twenty one battle for the republic and of swords and a one little find i got this weekend somebody tossed out a whole box of mission crossbow bolts and i was just looking them up and the one i'm holding my hand which night looks brand new it's graphite uh... all metal impressed fixtures really nice cleft for the uh... base of the shaft, it's actually sculptured quite nicely and they're like $50 for six and I got a bunch of these for free. Yeah, somebody just thought they needed to throw them out. So it's like I want them to continue to do that provided I catch them when they do. But the price was right and yes these will fit in pretty much any of the crossbows that I've got. longer shaft these are 20 inches which is good because we'll have some of the larger older crossbows and More goodies more stuff to go down range. I'll probably never get it back always assume when you're you gotta have lots of arrows You need to have whole buckets of arrows if you're gonna be shooting at somebody you're probably not going to unless you're fortunate enough to you good snag on them And even then their buddies probably would try to drag their carcass back in a way. So you lose the which means you need a utility bolt that you can afford to put down range. It's accurate enough. It still hits what it's supposed to hit. But when the time comes, it's, you know, gone. Just that simple. And you'll live with it. My wholesalers will not, have not been able to recover the inventory that they had in terms of the crossbows, which is kind of interesting. Bows and bolts. So far, the only thing we do have are pistol bolts. you know a bunch of you have gotten some of those from us simply because I try to buy a quantity and then let everybody know hey you need more for your quiver like 16, 20, 30, 40 whatever. More is gooderer, more is better. Anyway, so the price is right, that was a great deal, great deal, slash find this weekend. Also again, reminder, keep an eye out for tools. Hand tools that especially do not require power or something that you definitely need. If you don't have a basic little gaggle of hammers, watch for saws. Don't worry about whether or not they're rusty if they're hand saws. Clean them up, break out the sander. You can also use, you can soak them in vinegar. That's another trick you'll see everybody's been doing. The big thing is when you're done, clean it off, wash it off, dry it, hand dry it if you can to get as much of the moisture off and let it pull as quick as possible. Get out of these nice sunny days. and then either oil it or paint it. If you're going to oil it, then again, hand rub it in. Don't just... You want to work the oil in with a little piece of cotton or whatever and get everything right up into the nooks. But if you've got a handle, take the handle off and clean it. Clean the whole thing. Again, give everything a level of lubricant. The oil is an air that prevents oxygen from making contact with the metal. If you've got something a little more viscous, or if you want to use grease, you can do that. I do that with a lot of the bleeds I don't use all the time. So that when they're on the shelf, they've been greased and they're secure. When I want to use them, I like Gibbs. Oh, and Gibbs, yes, absolutely. Well, Gibbs is the number one. If you can get it, guys, and you should be able to, Gibbs is out there. Also, as a penetrant, I had some things I was working on this weekend. Good point there. We had something that we picked up and... Gibbs is what got through to make it a viable tool. And since it was a Belgian made tool, we needed to make sure that it was up and online as quick as possible. But somebody assumed that just because it's a very expensive item, that it probably worked just fine. Well, they didn't look closely at every place where there was worn metal on that fine Belgian tool. Yeah, you might imagine what kind of Belgian tool. The problem is, since it was put together with, you know, surplus components, the wear parts, you know, oxidized for lack of maintenance because somebody had it just standing upright where it needed to be safe. Oh well, so that's all been settled. I got the wink and the nod that that was taken care of and works just fine now, but guess what? Gibbs is what patiently penetrated all those spots and made everything happy and loose again. So, point Gibbs whenever possible. Another thing on crossbow, somebody's asking, well, would you use a crossbow? I don't know why, guys, if I mentioned a crossbow, probably because I would use it, yes. I buy any recurve or any compound bow, if I see it at a yard sale for anything, $20, $10, I don't care what it is. For $10, if it's a, and he goes, well, they're not the best bow, it's like, who cares? for putting a dart down range and being able to leave something where I can throw a shaft out and I push it a lot harder than I can throw it. I'll bet nothing fancy with regard to sights and leave it crude and just for simple harassment, fire, this with a black or brown arrow. That a cool. You know what I mean? Did you hit them? I don't know. Let's listen. I got somebody. I think I hit someone. There's a lot of noise going on over there. It was kind of a long shot wasn't it? Yeah, it was fun. You know, it doesn't make any noise. There's no boom, no pew. And there you go. I think it only four or five inches, maybe six, but that broadhead really did a good job going in. Yeah. So again, just remember guys, the cheap weapons like that, somebody else figured out to make them work. Amazing how many have run into yard sales in more recent months here, picked up a decent crossbow. thirty two dollars was about a five hundred dollar bow when it came out it's one of the cabella bows which oh I should mention you know what I haven't even gone back to that well cabela's and it jogs another light and marks brain yeah the lumberyard you know I'm over in the trim section right now in the back corner where all that quarter round kind of slid sideways and I didn't realize I had you know the out out or you know yeah I forgot all about that so anyway I'm over in the trim section here and a little company called Major Surplus which we mentioned many times www.majorsurplus.com. I don't know what they have if they've gotten any more because these are one-time deals and I did mention them to you but what was interesting is when we got them the muck boots that they have at majorsurplus.com. MajorSurplus.com. Okay. MajorSurplus.com. Anyway, what's interesting is Major had these muck boots and they were actually on the front page. They were acting in the scroll. I'm going to look to see if they're there right now. They're cabelas. Well, they're cabelas, but they're not cabelas. Or they're cabelas and they're just cabelas. But it was really bizarre. They ordered a bunch of these because they're $9 a pair. I wanted a number of, I got the different sizes just before they started to run out of the big sizes. So I did get a pair of 15s. I did get a pair of 14s, a couple of them. They're not really as big as, you know, so in other words, it's a good thing I wear the big sizes because more in line with what I need. But I've been learning to do this with all the new sizing that really is. But what's fascinating about these is when they came in is looking at the casting and it's like, wait a minute, I flipped them over, I'm looking at the tread, got a nice aggressive tread, rolls around the sides, and it says Cabela's. Now, not all of them say Cabela's, not each set. But what this tells me is that this was probably a one-time deal leftover seconds from a Chinese production company overseas that does for the different contractors and Most of these have the classic Cabela, you know in incurs trademark and like what three clock letters on the bottom of the soul So you're getting a Cabela boot you go ahead and look at what a Cabela what eight inch or ten inch muck boot for their average brand and you tell me whether or not nine dollars is a good deal. Now what's interesting is not all of our Cabela's not the same boot but it doesn't have the Cabela stamp on it which tells me that needless to say they just you know fill in the dye put in and they make the no-name brand version then when Cabela's needs theirs they take the insert out and What is fascinating is, I've had this happen before with, again, a number of different items. Remember, they had the iron, the p-tail lights. But two years ago, half of them were playing chain boxes. Guys that make the magazines, P-Magpul, Magpul, the P-Mag company. They were Magpul, obviously over in China, it's like, well, I don't care. We have a whole bunch of these and we got some left over. Just throw them in with a rest. Pick up those guys. They don't buy from us again. We don't care. So you know far as the company so we ended up with a bunch of PMAG sites for pennies by comparison and Those are stacked up in rack where you know when the time comes so we need you know replacements for something or whatever But it's the idea that common now with the Chinese stuff where they're not even worried about you know concealing that they're pilfering from their other kind of from the contraps that they're with They're just sliding it sideways piss on America uh... it's not anything surprising about all my god how could they get now it's just a reverse we told everybody they do this seriously i mean years ago decade ago it's like a here's how it's going to work you think they're going to honor any of the american name brand you're out of your mind pool not alone a minute yet not not a heart you know i will come back up about so anyway they do i think good part where was that uh... Monolithic global receiver. I'm curious to take a look at it as soon as I get out there. Over at JGSales.com, JGSales.com, www.JGSales.com out of Arizona. And they do have them in stock. I just tested that by putting them in the cart to see if they worked. So they do show that they're an inventory, but they are an FFL item thing. They're done an 80% receiver. They're a complete polymer. Now for the boots, they're over at major surplus, but I think, I believe, they have size 10. Here's the problem, and I actually talked to them about this. You can try the different sizes, and they will let you put them in the cart from this. but it's a way their system works uh... whatever side of you think you want that's what you punch and i know they have plans and i believe they have some thirteen so i do not think they have any twelve and i think that i think that twelve fourteen and fifteen maybe maybe not because apparently they're still working on they are nine ninety five appear for these mud boots they are pencil eight and like it told you a good portion of the i got about one on the bottom now to mix and not all of them are. So don't confuse that with the other cold weather muck boat they've got which is much more extensively insulated but these are still a good insulated boat. Be quite honest for slipping on and going out even in the middle of winter. I wouldn't think twice about it. If I were to go anywhere, I would. Again, better that than bare feet in the snow. That's why, again, these are footwear items. Any time where I can put spare footwear in other places, I put extra old tennis shoes in locations all over the place here just in case I got screwed out, you know, I had to, you know, step outside. I'm not going to be freezing. I am not going to be barefoot. And I'm going to be thinking more about how I'm going to kill the bastard who I just had to move away from a little bit. That's how you need to be thinking constantly. I'm just going to buy me some time. Now I'm going to go get rid of the problem and then kill them all. You know how that works? That's how it should be in your mind constantly. Oh my God, there it is. Oh, shut up. Just a reverse. Hunt them harder than they think they're hunting you. Always think ahead. Hell, it might not be you that needs a footwear, but something to put on somebody else's feet because they were, of course, stuck in a situation. I mean, right there where you're located. You're now in a battlefield environment. You have been for quite some time, but it's become very, very apparent where this is all headed. The economy is screwed and there's nothing they're going to do to fix it with the regime that's in here and the pigs that we have that are manipulating this behind the scenes are laughing their ass off because America's letting that happen. That the idiot Americans are letting it happen. That's how they look at you. So we got to again, we're going to make sure that well, they may run but they ain't going to run far. And we're going to make sure that they don't come back to bother us ever again. The ones that are doing this now are all on the hunt list. So Again, that's MajorSurplus for Jerry, sorry about that. MajorSurplus.com, MajorSurplus.com, MajorSurplus.com, and those $9.95, $10, $10 boots are mud boots with thin shoelace, $9.95, and it's a mix, but they're all that basic boot. They are, all of them are the same basic form. The only difference is some have the Cabela print on the bottom, some do not. Now the sets do the cabello of the left right. We know it's like we have to put the pair bellows on both of the boots. It's that simple. Another thing, I noticed that rubber deck boots for 17 a pair is not bad. If you're familiar with those, they have the rubber, well the rubber seal at the top. You're supposed to roll your wet gear or wing gear over top of those, not underneath guys. So that way you have a double layer to pretend so the water doesn't ride up your leg. let's see next on things that are going on and i wanted to make sure that uh... i just want to make sure that these are items of gear and equipment that if you like the boots over at motash please take advantage of those yeah i can't emphasize that enough you know i don't do that all the time yeah i saw that another thing i tried to order the french military ecu or the french mickey mouse boots i don't know that they have any in stock but you might want to check i would call before i would order those The one I tried to order them, they were not in inventory again. Now they should be something that's just down the street, so to speak, major surplus. You can find out real quick by simply calling during the day, during the business, say, hey, I want to order this, do you have them or not? And they can check and that way you're not spending, you know, wasting time placing an order and having a fiddle for our third context. Every once in a while that happens. I'm trying to buy your... make sure you use your time wisely. Now next is again... well over at Guns N Gadgets today believe he's having... but I thought he had it too. Busted cold when photo surfaces. Her apology won't save her this time. If you're really worried about it, do you think... I'm not... and again, I'm not so sure that I don't think that's necessarily maybe female looking. there's some weird stuff going on with the family the comments made as far as you know little flips here and there and of course you went down to florida greater diverse gender went down to florida to see her dad when you and i were of course it would be evil for us to step out and make contact with our family evil you're all evil some of the things that they made the mistake of saying when they were talking about that and the some of the conversation or comments of the family I think Greta Bruce Jenner is either one of the guys dressed up or certainly one of the lesbian, lesbian, you know, the more like, like the Michael who was with Obama, you know, the Michael girl by a girl buddy boy. I think it's the same thing. This is why the leather is out on this thing all the time too. If you haven't noticed, if you, those of you who haven't watched videos of our, of the Greta Bruce Jenner, a Gouverneur, the goop, the Gouverneur. Yeah, they're kind of like S and M and and the pedo queer meat puppet types that are out there that just why they had why it had so much support from the the leftist in Detroit that flew it down to Florida. The click out of Detroit are all queers of three dollar bill and that's behind the turf so just a heads up on that one in case and oh by the way well hold on thank you Joseph appreciate that. If you want to watch interesting pieces over on the next news network She's done Whitmer busted, cold wind, photo. Okay, there we go. That'll help you out there. And as a matter of fact, I think we're going to play on some of the parts of it short. I'm just going to make sure we have that available. Maybe I just having a chance to watch it. It's only 23 minutes ago, guys. I appreciate you sending it over, but it's a little tough on the program here to be doing three things at once while doing radio. However, I'll try. Next is again, over at Guns and Gadgets. couple things that are going on in Washington, needless to say. Also again, the states, uh, the constitutional carry hold on, has a three days, three days ago, Texas is clearing hurdles for constitutional carry. The latest one that's out there. I see what you're talking about now. There's an actual update that was done three days ago, which would have been, you know, the latest one is Texas clearing hurdles for constitutional carry. Take the time, go over there. Remember when you go and watch a video over at guns and gadgets, help them out. Doesn't cost you anything. Give a thumbs up, subscribe if you haven't subscribed to the channel, and then move on after you watch it to other things. But, well I'll tell you what we'll do if Ed's right there, let's do this. It's only two minutes and 54 seconds long and I always like to put it somewhere else in the inventory rather than just on their channels. Of course we're blocked too in places, we know that. But Ed if you could, guns and gadgets. This is dated for May 24th, 2021. Texas is clearing hurdles for constitutional carry and that is two minutes and 54 seconds long. It is basically an update from what was going on three days ago because it's a process and just might be the next one to work that particular angle. Not that we need to ask permission or anything. Everybody all covers. I have no use for pretty much any of the system. Some are for the moment leaning for the moment, for the moment, only for the moment. Because they're trying to make themselves relevant again. After the Democrats and Republicans screwed America with a fake election, they're trying to show you that we're in the fight. Not really, but you know, guess what? We'll play the other circus monkeys because again, not my circus, not my monkeys, but we're not trusting or believing pretty much anything that's going on with the racketeer scammers cuz they're all still run by the same there they're all the same meat puppets being worked by the same puppeteers you know with your arm up their ball from you know the two tentacles from the same critter that simple anyway uh... tech constitutional carry take the time check that out and if ed they're going and will to the court in way also uh... let's see there was a couple of things And I know guns and gadgets, the end symbol, end symbol, not and, and gadgets. Okay, there you go. That'll get coming, it'll get through the ad. If you hit a jackhammer outside, I apologize. So I'm just gonna do a quick informal here, Texas. Last night, late last night, the House passed the final version of constitutional carry, like real late. I was watching, I mean, listening to it on my phone. And if I remember right, their final vote came at like 1.30 Eastern time, a.m. So they battled long into the night and it passed. I think it was 6242. I don't have any notes, but I remember when I was watched listening to I was 5242 the Senate in Texas is gonna believe they're voting today. I just checked and nothing's happened as of yet, but it is coming today and then it's gonna go to the governor's desk also Texas the Senate passed on the third reading The suppressor freedom bill, I believe it's called again. I'm doing this without notes and doing this off the top of my dome What it does is any Texas made suppressors don't have any NFA restrictions as long as they stay in Texas If you live in Texas read the bill I'll have it linked down below if I can remember to edit this and put it in there But I'm sure somebody's watching is in Texas because I know a lot of my viewers are there you can just link it down below, please But hey, some good stuff going on in Texas and I just wanted to get it out there because it's happened today. Call your state senators if you want, if you don't, see what they do and then get on your governor because it's going to pass. Constitutional carrier is coming to Texas and you'll be state number 21, which is awesome. Yeah, I'm beat. So I'm, I am not going to pull up the camera. It's all packed up still. I'm not editing. So this is it. One take. Hopefully I did my best. I got 8, I haven't eaten since yesterday around 1 p.m. So guys and gals, I appreciate y'all and thanks for dealing with the informal type videos. So with each other again, be safe, stay vigilant, carry your weapon. Subscribe, for some reason I've lost like 56 subscribers in the last 48 hours. I don't know, maybe it's because they didn't like I was shooting ammo or something. I'll tell you what, you want to make me happy, give me endless amounts of free ammo like Eric, a rec veteran 88 and all the vendors CMMG and Pitman and everybody there and then give me my boardroom chair and my Tempur-Pedic Bed and my 2A coffee from Blackout and I'm good. So I'm trying to get back to me right now. I'll see you all in the next video. All right, guys, take care. Hey, Dad. Something hasn't mentioned with that constitutional carry in Texas. They pulled it in for a few last-minute amendments to make a compromise on it. One of the things that they've done is if you have any misdemeanor and you're caught carrying a firearm, it could be considered a felony. Any misdemeanor. Oh, really? Saw the other... Yeah, the usual bullshit was again the... That is something that they snuck in as a compromise. right there the royal p is playing the usual bs and then by the way that likely is not back but clear not you ever go well yeah i'm very familiar with the republican kind of thing you can become out of a slight from the left you know there's the neo-con so remember where did george bush where what where's george bush and scott and texas what is george bush he's not a republican he's a neo-con with a republican name Always remember that and I've said this for years. How did they get all this left coast slash East Coast limousine liberal crap passed in Texas in the first place? Because of the neo-con Bushites and all the other turds and like that which by the way is another reason the leftists out of Silicon Valley are being drawn to the cesspools of you know, well, let's see Houston which had become queers of $3 bill Dallas which is And Austin is a $3 bill, which is where the queers, the $3 bill money has been dropping. It's as for quite some time, not the rest of the state, but it's just like any other state. Those are the conduit points for all of these turds that, you know, keep popping themselves down. And then, well, look what you've got for a police force. Look what you've got in charge of the city. That's why I said queers, a $3 bill. You don't think so? The police chief, I think is, what was it with Houston? No, it's, uh, no, it's Houston. The police chief is what, the dyke that's got the butch haircut and the mayor is the guy that thinks it's a girl. It doesn't make any difference to me. I really, that's how, you know, these characters are just so disgusting. It doesn't make any difference. They're both saying BS different day. But of course, again, it's Texas. But how did that happen? Well, because people didn't kind of use the right two by four. That's how the anti-gun stuff got passed in the first place decades ago. not just a few days ago or last year, decades ago. So, I heard a voice there, I think. Call or jump in there. Somebody's being patient. I just want to say they got passed by the Retardikans and the Dummikrat. Yep, exactly. Well, and again, the Neocons are the biggest thing. They're the fake, the ultimate Romney being the best example of what's left out there that's still in the public. And that's why he got moved to death, you know, in a public venue with the Republorettes. Now, of course, they were pissing and moaning because he wasn't fully supporting the Trumpite. No, Trump. But what it comes down to is, at least acknowledge the nature of the critter that's in front of him. But don't think that the... Both of them are pushing the same garbage. Both of them are scam involved in all this garbage trying to get you jacked up with a murder death kill. As far as I'm concerned, pretty much all of them are in the same toilet. looking down there or try to figure out what turd do you want to fish out and have a bite of? Well I don't know. Let's stir the pot. Let's see what's down there. Oh look that one's got corn. Oh that will taste maybe a little better. Yeah there you go. I'm young digested corn in your Hershey bar. There you go. Yeah. All from the same toilet. Our problem is. Well anyway just want to heads up on that and it's guns and gadgets like you said I think been traveling this weekend. Like you said not even running but I'm packed. Well at least got some stuff out there so. They have been, uh, he has been doing his due diligence working in a number of different directions, so everybody pay attention there. Uh, and that's Guns and Gadgets on YouTube. Guns and Gadgets on YouTube. Guns, the N symbol, like General Mills symbol, and gunsandgadgets.com. Guns and Gadgets on YouTube. Just let me. However, I did want to touch on something else here, so get your pen and paper ready, because I'm going to show you something you'll understand what Uncle Mark's talked about for years. This is really kind of cool. Have you watched any of the videos of the guys doing magnet fishing off of bridges? Have you watched guys do magnet fishing off of bridges? Now this really isn't a bad idea. I can think of a few places where this might be pretty successful. You could go in as a diver, which by the way a lot of people don't want to, but the neat thing about magnet fishing is you can do it year round as long as the water's, you know. There is a video, Rustiest Gun on YouTube. Rustiest, Rustiest, W, R, U, S, T, I, E, S, T, Rustiest Gun on YouTube, question mark, magnet, fishing, gun, conservation. Now, of course, we're doing a favor, we're getting these guns out of the water and we're doing it. Well, what's cute about this is the reason I'm pointing to this one, it's an SKS. Now I've tried to tell you about some of the SKS's that I have personally had I've owned or that I've had back from Vietnam some of the battlefield pickups from Vietnam and Of course also a k-47 that's from Vietnam didn't look any prettier sitting in a rice paddy where was in a rice paddy cache and Or left there because they had a drop the SKS body still there. They're kind of shifting over there sifting through the area doing a sweep and I've seen SKS's that On the outside, looks like I said, aliens hit like the alien got shot and the guy was holding the rifle and the alien sprayed acid for blowing the gun. And it's amazing that, especially with the CHI-COM SKS, is because of chrome line bores and chrome line chambers and a lot of brush chrome parts, it's amazing how the gun looks as horrible as it does but is fully functional. So here's what I want you to watch, because there's two steps to this whole video thing. One is him recovering the gun. This is the first video. And you're going to get to see what it looks like coming out of the war. Now, as you can suspect, it's like, well, the more he keeps working this, the more it might work. Well, amazingly enough, a testament to the SKS and its ability to be abused by humanity. I want you to go watch this video. Seriously, I am dead cold. I want you to take the time. You can reader's digest it and move it forward a little bit because he does a step by step what he did to clean it up. And I would do a little differently on some things, but that's just me. First of all, once I got it to a certain point, I would have just got myself some of the cheapest penetrating oil or solvent that I could. Just set the whole receiver in there and let it for an indefinite period of time. That's just me. Before I'd be grinding or tapping. be the absolute minimal but he didn't do any damage to the gun you could not really considering where it was but it's actually showing them fishing it out of the river with a magnet doing the magnet fishing uh... and then uh... oke is what and then he got good photography showing you how abysmal the thing looks when you tell me well man it's junk man it's useless manner i would even bother picking it up you have a gun no are you guys sure don't you know We're gonna have to park guns together from stuff called 50 or 100 yards maybe a lot less but at least what the bullet on them and Here's what's really cute the folding manette is on this SKF and on top of that the folding SKF Bannette looks almost as good as when it went into the water probably Now I pointed out that brush chrome finish the Chinese Had lots of slaves and so I could believe Yeah, go ahead spike or blade Oh, spike, spike type. This is definitely one of the type, you know, the $56 specialist gas, if somebody had it, whatever they did or however it went, it was complete. And in fact, it had the sling on it because the sling, what's left of the sling and fixtures, it was in fresh water. And that's one of the big advantages. And remember, guys, fresh water, a lot of this stuff, if it gets into the sand or silt, the wood may not survive, but the metal will actually fare very well. In fact, the deeper and darker it is, I've told you before about water recovery, guns that we've recovered out of Lake Erie didn't look even, they didn't even look nearly anything like this. They looked basically like, imagine just throwing the gun in the water and you get this light patima of rust, not even rust. It's almost like it's a finish, like you have a spray paint on it, but it's a very fine, fine, fine, fine, fine patima that covers all the metal parts. And it's the way oxidation works in depth with little or no sunlight and cold water. And I know because I've seen enough of it. Well, this is a shallow recovery and this looks like it's, you know, initially, hey, Barnacle Bill the sailor dudes. But when he's done, there's a second video I want you to watch. And it's where he takes this battlefield pickup, like from the swamps of Hades and actually I've told you before, it looks on the outside like acid for blood, but on the inside, all parts are, it functions fine. Now I'm going to ruin this for part of you, because what he does, he did a good job of us, not just an archaeological dig, because he also disassembles the gun very meticulously. But when he tests it, he's in our school. I am serious. I would love to have sit down with this, because these people, these kids are doing like what we used to do when we were their age, playing with guns. That's how we did all the ballistics research, we did all the penetration research, came up with all kinds of cute and unique whale bullets, because he had some fun. He's having fun. But what's interesting is that the way he takes the SKS in first, what he does is upgrades it. Then he systematically takes the parts that are original and starts reapplying them to the gun to see how functional the gun would be. Now one of the things I will remind you about is the forward trail, the forward tube that ensconces the gas tap, your gas rod that goes underneath the site in your SKS, remember the double tap system there. What's interesting, he points out, he's thinking there's going to be a bunch of gas blowout. around the rusted tube because the tube actually looks like a really bad muffler pipe on a 75 Pinto. It's that bad, okay? But he puts it back on. and he puts a piece of paper and he fires, well, what he doesn't realize, if he's looking, remember that on either side of that tube you have blowout points. You have an area that allows for a certain amount of evacuation because you don't want that thrust to just drive home and have that thing every time. You know, there's a certain amount of energy you need to work the tap, and it literally is like a tap, like in a motor. So when it flaps the next face of metal, it has already lost part of its energy, or it has just enough thrust calculated based upon the average charge in an SKS round, subject by 39. You know, Russian, Chinese doesn't make any difference, Romanian cartridge. And the blowout really does take place way before the tube, which he was thinking that somehow the gas is either got, it can't really, it's, remember you've got a, sharp surface area of contact inside the tube. So when the main rod goes so far, the ports that are in the tube allow the gas to go by. So what he was expecting and what he got were two different things. The paper stays clean for obvious reasons. So the tube was serviceable enough, as crappy as it looks, that it continued to allow the weapon to function. Now this is what I've talked about before is like crude, rude, but to understand the weapon system and what are critical working components that are things you need to pay attention to and others which are to a degree they're useful and but if they're in worse condition would you know would still be useful would be still function. And it's purely a matter of not just not so much aesthetics, but obviously Durability while you build parts heavier the way you do in this case because they kind of grossly overbuilt the SKS like a brick-dog house When it gets into dire straits like this, it's amazing how well it functions It's a dark side of the moon rifle And if you look at these videos, you'll see what I've been talking about for years You couldn't take an AR-15 and do what they did to the SKS. It would simply be non-viable. And I'll tell you why. The aluminum receiver, your polymer would give you more time, but the aluminum receiver, if it has any scores, checks, or points, what's going to happen is it will start blossoming and eroding right there and the stuff will erupt. The oxidation will corrupt the receivers within a very, very short period of time in this kind of short period short, shallow submersion because you have warm, cold water passing through, oxidation and erosion with evacuation of material as it oxidizes so it would continue to blossom and expand. How do I know this? I've seen it before. Okay. Now, it doesn't mean it's low grade aluminum in those receivers. It isn't. It's very high grade, very aircraft grade aluminum. One of the things about the old armory books, if you do have them, I do, of the armory text. It's amazing how body salts alone will eat a receiver. Your hands, salty, sweaty, dirty hands, oily from your body fluids. Handling the AR-15, especially in Vietnam. There are hundreds of examples in the armory text. showing where people just handling the gun repeatedly in the same place would literally eat because of electrolysis they would eat through the receiver with their hands carrying the rifle you know killed most common place where this would happen lot of guys like to handle the weapon around the front of the magazine well on the outside and they would grip it that way you've seen this it's very common you've got your web gear out i've did all the time You put the buttstock of the A1 or A2 on your web gear, hold it right where that magazine will, since it's in a good rest position. You can carry the rifle in a good, more ready position. And it keeps it secure, but the weight's being born on your web gear. Well, your hand, where it rests, some guys, and a lot of guys, a combination of how much salt they push, the nature of their body fluids, and how acidic they are. All of that is part of the formula, but literally acid for blood. There are examples of the magazine wells actually eating straight through to the inner part of the magazine well, like on the corner. Literally, they couldn't stop it from oxidizing. It just bubbles right through. And you see the inside of the magazine well, you see this divot in the corner, a quarter of an inch deep, and about an inch and a half to three inches, depends how big the fingers were on the guy's hands. and how they rested on the gun. Now with this SKS, it's all steel or wood. There's no aluminum, there are some brass parts, you know, small brass pins and such, you know, having to do with either the wood or the leather. And as just pointed out, if you watch the video, the sling, the material oxidized and corroded to the edge of the wood stock and stuck to it. So when they recovered the weapon, The interesting thing is that they got part of the pieces of the slings still attached to the gun. Otherwise, the bayonet, hey if all else fails I could stab you to death with this damn thing and work. Not that we made a first choice, but hey, a long piece of wood with some steel reinforcing with a sharp pointing object on the end of it about what, 16 inches, 18 inches long? Yeah, that's pretty good. That's better harsh language. And by the way, if I cleaned it up, you at least think it was a functional weapon as long as I look aggressive and pointed at you. I don't think you'd stand there and wait to see if I put it to my shoulder and pointed it at you, and then I was going to go, boom, right? You'll probably try to respond by recovering your weapon or doing whatever, or getting under cover because it looks like I'm going to put bullets down, right? So again, real quick, because we're almost to the top here, Rustiest Gun on YouTube. This is your homework assignment. You had some fun. 23 minutes long. Same channel though, if you go to Cameron Reynolds, Cameron Reynolds, the page, Rusty has gone on YouTube, question mark, magnet fishing gun conservation. The next video is where they actually do R&D research and development, and they buy a certain number of parts after he looked at what was going on with the gun, and they do a step-by-step systems test to get the weapon not only to function cycle and when you see what this gun looks like it's like you always said, well it's useless I wouldn't do anything with a yeah right well watch the videos you know what that right carry a rifle in a heartbeat especially if you know guess what I ain't got nothing Bob's giving me something what is it well it's kind of like a boat anchor only a little better what the hell happened to this gun oh it's a long story a lot of history but guess what you could get it to work and so again they did It's Rustiest Gun on YouTube. Question mark, magnet fishing gun conservation. It is 23 minutes and 23 seconds long and it is dated for February 17, 2021. So this is a newer video. Of course, if you look at the grass off to the side of the beach, the fact that in the reflection in the water, there's no leaves on the trees. A winter fishing find. Look, yeah, you all wait a minute. I couldn't see the sky. I didn't need to look at the reflection on the water. Oh yeah, you can do that. Remember, pay attention to details. It's not hard to do at all. When did he find this? Well, obviously it was after the leaves are gone in the spring because there are no leaves on the trees and I see some stragglers here and there hanging on in the reflection in the water. So, other than that, pretty cool. And also when you watch the whole piece with the restoration video, it is fascinating in and of itself. and step by step he's patient this is what i've talked about use patients and of course if you're correct curiosity is up what is interesting as he took a crappy one of the crappy springs put it back in the garden and actually work with the weapon now i would know it would probably make it a little more aggressive and we've talked about you know beating on the god remember so to speak with arch you know degrading then you're probably going to get a little more thrust energy that will impact towards the inside of the piston channel, for instance, with that little tap it. But it apparently did the job. The weapon not only fires, but it extracts rounds after a while, which I think is really amazing. So it wasn't just a single shot, which I didn't even be happy with. If I found something like this and I actually could... Scutter it back to where it looks like it's kind of a gun even if I couldn't change the stock or anything else if I could put one bullet down range I can get your whatever you have and if I have the band that I can make sure just to be quiet I could or for that matter if I want to be quiet from the get-go Take that a little spiky band and make it work for me But they did a lot more than that So this is an I told you so this is a classic example of I told you so And it's a lot of fun. This is the kind of stuff that's fun. No, it's not my first choice. God, if I could have timed way back machine, I could use it any time I want to. You get to the bridge before the guy throws it over. When he throws it in the water, you let him drive away and you go right to where they see the poop. And you go into the water and you get the rifle and it doesn't get all rusted up and, oh yeah, cool. That would be your best choice. But it's not. The other thing, it behooves you to look at what they're doing and maybe experiment and do a little bit of this kind of fishing off of the bridges yourself. because any place where there's any kind of running water, it's amazing how many guns, because this ain't the first one. In fact, both guns, shotguns, pump type, double barrels, you name it. And a lot of them not quite as bad as this SKS. In many cases, very, very much rebuildable. And I would point out that depending on how new the weapon or how old the weapon is, Gunpartscorp.com has almost everything you need, especially in the, what you would think are, you know, modern arms you probably can't find that many parts for. Well, amazingly enough, like the Rugers, there's a lot of Ruger parts, etc., etc., etc. Anyway, we're at the top. We're going to be getting out of here in a moment for everybody, guys. It is Monday, beginning of the week. Can't say thank you enough, the 8th Regimental Combat, 8th Regimental Combat Team. to the squadrons who are working this weekend, you guys did a great job. And to pitch in and teach a few people some of the tricks of the trade you've learned, and in the process our new visitors sharing what they know. We're improving the armored truck sections, which is the whole idea. Bouncing off each other, you come up with better ideas. One of the things we're working on right now that's going to be the next project, I passed it on, is using expended window glass for armor. You know, you get the whole safety glass panels when they take them out of the front end of a vehicle. How about we flatten them the way that they do? I've seen how they, most recently, just had another windshield done. And what's really cool is, oh, wow, well, there's a whole lot of that glass and it stays pretty much together. How about using that with ceramic and with cement and making up all... if nothing else, it could be put on behind walls, inside buildings, all kinds of fun stuff. Or just around areas where you need a, you know, you want to create cover, but nobody knows what kind of sophisticated cover it is. Just something to think about. There's a simple cement wall barrier that you've cast, and even then, a really big, it builds up on that one. Anyway, we're at the top, we should be hearing the music. It is Monday on Liberty Republic. I hope you saw it.
