Mark Koernke hosted the afternoon and evening editions of The Intelligence Report on June 16, 2021, covering weapons, ammunition pricing, radio communications equipment, battery technology, and preparedness. The show featured extensive discussion of rifle optics (Axion red/blue/green sights), ammunition availability and pricing from Ammoman.com, CB radio systems and antennas, rechargeable battery reliability issues, and various firearms platforms including 9mm carbines and historical military rifles. A guest caller named Craig from Forbidden Knowledge discussed his federal lawsuit settlement against Hamilton County, Ohio, regarding the seizure and refusal to return his van, resulting in a policy change requiring the state to accommodate homeless individuals in vehicle registration. The show emphasized practical preparedness, ammunition stockpiling, and constitutional rights.
You know, the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt, to protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless, people that want to literally create the proven places, persons are killed, called gun-free zones. We're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. Okay, just get any blunt objects together, alright? If you get corners, put the fashion in the head, that seems to work. Kick together, stay sharp, and follow me. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat, and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. This number, you trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and each God-given right. And pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as Tyrant trampled each god-given rite, 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 free? Help from me and I'll set you free. What's the word? Thunderbird. Yo. What? Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm our kirky. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both odd and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, east, south, and north. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio on Satellite, seeing high to all our friends out there listening in the western Pacific and Asia, I understand we've got to work around the globe that way on the far side. Works out pretty well for us. And we are naming it in microstations, CEB, base stations and UltraNet, Hallmark and Golden Spike technologies, east and west of the Mississippi. along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there in Lower 49, including the great state of Jefferson, along with Kona State, along two states' territories, and the clock. It is 5.06 p.m. Eastern Standard Time here in the bottom of the state of Michigan, where temperature is about 74, 75 degrees. It is clear, sunny, but we've had a cool air out of the North Classic Michigan. off the Great Lakes and I think over Lake Superior. So it came down and visited us and we dropped down into the low 50s last night. Everybody went like whoa which is good. Reminds you of the peninsulas that we live on around the five largest freshwater bodies on the planet. I'm here to tell you on the big palm, remember we're the big paw, the The Hand of God, printed from above, you know, Michigan. Look at the lower peninsula. It's a hand with a thumb. Yeah, I mean like that. Anyway, it is the 13th year of open Fabian, socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K on the 16th of June. 2021, Old Earth calendar. I'm giving all his gut, Captain. And 2021, Battle for the Republic, Dance of Swords. Okay, it is weapons Wednesday. And attention, attention, attention. I need to put out a question here. By chance, and again, that was an inventory return because somebody apparently had stuff on hold, but we have the Axion red, blue, green rifle sites available again. There aren't very many, and I grabbed some the moment that I saw that they were available. They will not last long. And in fact, I need a response from you guys on the air. The Axion red, blue, green dot sites, they're very simple, very straightforward. The Axion stuff always is. They don't go over-check on anything, but they do exactly what they're supposed to do. The donation is going to be $25 right from the get-go. and that will cover shipping, take care of, you know, in other words, you're sending a donation to Liberty Tree Radio, we're gonna send you a gift of an Axion red, blue, green rifle sight. Now, here's what I need to know, is anybody interested? Just yes or no, just come up on the air, let me know, and if that is the case, we'll for sure offer them, and I, but I'm gonna do it as quickly as we can, and everybody needs to move on it because I need to grab the inventory. And I don't have a problem with having extras anyway. They would go into reserves wherever it is I have other things. So they're the same as true of other people right now that need some. I know somebody listening at least is going to want another four. So those four are gone and on hold right away for you. If not more, if you want more than four, then we can get you more than four. for our friend that's listening. You're all our friends. But we have one person who was supposed to get five and got one because of the way we had the inventory shuffled. So we can pick up another four, or I'm going to hang on to four right away, which is not a problem because I ordered some immediately the moment I saw that they were available. I was looking at the quantity for the monocular, and I figured out how I'll look to see what else might be up there in the way of optics. And they had a small chunk of the inventory that had been locked down for another contractor and the contractor didn't follow through, probably a little guy, it's usually what happens. And when you're dealing with wholesalers, it's like this all the time. A lot of the warehouses even let them come in, choose to come in and let them cherry pick off the inventory. You don't much do that anymore because they found out they got stuck with a lot of stuff. So that's one of the things that is kind of cool about this. We've got an opportunity. I would say probably there may be a hundred of these available. I know there's more, but I'm going to say with the numbers, the way they went the last time, once everybody finds out they're there, they get gobbled up pretty quick. But we have at least a hundred, more than a hundred if we move quickly. So if any of you want quantities, like you want 10, or if you want, you know, more. then I didn't know right away and then we could lock them down and then they could be slid sideways. It wouldn't be a problem. Mark, I'm just what you're talking about Mark, if I may. What are you talking about? Not those batteries, are you? No, this is an Axion, Axion, no, no, no, this is the Axion 1, a red, blue, green rifle sight. Okay. It's like a red dot. Okay. Wow, interesting. So they're 25 a piece. We had them before. The problem is they had thousands of them, but then they had hundreds of them. And then very quickly they had none because this was a wholesaler. I actually kept in one of the companies that brings this stuff in. So I have more than one, but this particular one is pretty good for prices. They don't do much in the way of optics, but when they do, they always offer a pretty good price. There's a couple other things. I bought them out. I'm not even offering. because there were only seven of them and I want them for us. So the seven are mine, you guys don't get any of those. That's another item, totally different. If they have more, I might even mention it on the air, but otherwise, no. They actually had thousands come in, it took about six hours and they sold out and I grabbed the last seven because I caught it the last minute. So, in this case, we have a quantity of these available now. Right off the bat, I ordered 15, but if I need to order more, and if everybody is interested in a quantity, again, this is a double plus good deal. It's the Axion Red Blue Green Rifle Sight. If you go and do a search on it, there are videos on YouTube where people have picked them up, they like them. They are mechanically simple, they are small, so they are really out of the way. They would work on a .22, should work on a shotgun, and they certainly work on AR-15s and AKs. And so, for that matter, an M1A. But for me personally, if I get an M1A, I don't plan on letting you get too close. I'm going to keep you farther away, so my optics are going to be a little bigger. But you can do that if that's how you are niching the M14. or the FAL or the HK91. It's a good tactical utility red dot system, but it's red, blue, green dot. You can pick which color you want. There are also variations in intensity. I know a lot of you people pick them up, so you know what I'm talking about. And everybody, when I understand everybody likes them, I haven't had a problem with them. They do come with batteries. They are ready to operate and all you do is connect them and then you know take the time to site in to a confirmed point of impact and away you go and they are fully adjustable by the way too. So again that's the Axion Red Blue Green site. I ordered 15 of those will be in hand. And then, but if I need more right away, I need to do this right away. So just a heads up. If you'd like to send me an email, if you need a quantity, liberty at provide.net. And then let me know. I'll put axion site, axion site or axion red, blue, green. That's better still actually. Axion red, blue, green. And that way I'll know that the email is about that and you can tell me what you need or if there's some of the questions you have. Of course you can ask on the error because everybody else will be asking the same question maybe so it's not a bad idea. Excuse me. And AXION. A-X-I-O-N. Alright, thank you. It's the Axion red, blue, green rifle sight. I know what the number is. There's a number. There's always a number but it's... It's like a short dart. It's a couple of letters and a number. But forgive me, I just don't have it off the top of my head. The site's really simple. You have elevation and traverse. And then you have, I mean, for adjusting the red dot itself to put it on point of aim. And otherwise, there's a power control for going from the red to the blue to the green. And there are, I think, three variations in how dim, how light, bright or dim you want it. As you turn the knob, it readjusts. So that's kind of cool. It's very simple to use. And it's the Axion red, blue, green, rifle sight, red dot, it's red dot, it's red, blue, green dot, OK? But that's not red dot. That's cool. So, if anybody has any feedback, wants to say anything about coming up on the air, that'd be fine. In fact, so far all the ones that everybody has locally here are running without any problem. And in fact, they've used them on training exercises quite a bit now. So, happy with them. They work. They're nothing to write home about. Absolutely. Plain gate. About as kis, simple as you could get. But they are pretty robust. I actually have this I'm very happy with the way they're built. It's one thing about the Axion unit, say, obviously their Chinese slave labor does a very fine job of running whatever equipment they got at the other end, and so the quality control seems to be average. I was going to say excitable because it's not in Chinese excitable, but it's average. Another thing here real quick. Go ahead, color. What batteries did it take? Is it the 2032? You know, that's just it. I didn't pop or did I can kind of recall I think it's I think it uses a 1 2 3 battery But I am gonna have to double check and somebody else can confirm that for me But I'm pretty sure it's a very short package. Yeah, I've been got the numbers I was gonna say it's got the dial on the side where it you dial up the intensity and there's a slot It might be in the middle of it. That would be a 2 0 3 2 battery Yeah, yeah, that's not a battery Well as a matter of fact I have a pile of all of those right now because of one of the other deals like I said There were some wholesale items they were on the last of so I picked up a full selection of all of their electronics batteries Which is kind of fun? But it's yeah, I could offer on the air because it's onesies and twosies, you know, I'm sorry. Yeah, I just I just did a Google image search and Sure enough. It's got a battery compartment on the side What model number of oxygen is that does it give you one? I just for that moment I want to say it's an it's an essay or something like that three, but I think that's the other Monocular, it's been a little while since we had it or since we've had it in hand and Oh, God, it's trying to think. Like I said, it's a simple number. You probably have pulled up the image for it because there are only some of you that have the Axion. It's built in AXEON and it's 1 by 30 dot site. And yeah, sure enough, this is a 5 MOA and field of view, 68 feet at 100 yards, 11 brightness settings for each one of the colors. Looking through the questions here. It doesn't give the the battery in it, but nine times out of ten Nine times out of ten. It's a two oh three two battery so but You know what? The one I'm looking at it's got Two screw mounts on it as opposed to one so that's better and one thing I like about it also Is that the cap on the elevation? And the windage knobs has a built-in mail slot that you can use as a screw as opposed to fumbling around in your pack for a screw in case you have to do adjustments on the fly. So that is a plus. You still there? Yeah, I'm listening. Go right ahead. Okay. One thing I want to talk to you about is... I can't pull it up on the computer here, right? Go ahead. ...is I broke out my... Last night I broke out my... Albrecht AE2990. It's a handheld walkie-talkie that goes from 10 to 12 meter. It's got single sideband on it and it's the same as the Cherokee AH100 except this one has digital squelch. So I have this one and I think I've talked to you about it before where I am able to put a regular PL259 cable to a dipole and string it up in a tree and be able to get reports from over 100 miles away just on the battery patch alone. One thing that happened and you know Maybe I was just being a little bit too Jewish when I bought these rechargeable batteries, but they had them on sale at a CVS and they were CVS rechargeable batteries. I've had them in there for a year and now they don't take a charge. So if you're buying rechargeable batteries for your communications gear, keep in mind that if you're buying the brand name of rechargeable batteries, you may not have luck with those batteries for much over a year. I've had the same problem with rail vac AA rechargeable batteries and also there was another off brand of rechargeables but I forgot which one they were. So, and you don't want to run just straight alkaline batteries on these radios because they'll get drained within just a few hours and then you don't have anything to... So, that's something that people need to... You can use them, but you've got to understand the limitations. That's the big thing. You can use them, don't forget, but you're not going to get the transmission time that you would with a rechargeable or especially a deep cell. So, that's what they do work. I wanted to ask that while you're on the phone is, with your experience, what is the best brand of the AA rechargeables? Well, actually I've been but what I have been doing and the problem is everybody's been scarfing them up is going through the industrial supply houses and picking up the plain Jane shell batteries, you know, the white shell yellow shell blue shell and We were buying with we're actually You know there were pack cells and I you can get the there's either the commercial cell with that where they actually don't have the proper kit Because they're typically soldered together in a radio pack, you know a battery pack You've got to watch that. But the standard double A's, I've been getting a couple of years or more out of them so far. Now it depends. Some are just old NYCAD. They were unused, unissued NYCAD. And NYCAD have always had a problem with survivability and time. So that's why I'm curious about what real VAC was using that they died out within one year. I'll show you, I'll read you, these are CVS and of course you know who CVS is. They're the Walgreens. Okay, so the first one I'll tell you is, let me put my batteries, or my, I need to wear two pair of glasses just to read the print on this battery. So these are rechargeable CVS AA 2450 milliamp hours. And these are nickel metal hydride. And I'll tell you this, I've probably put five recharge cycles through this battery pack in one and a half years maybe. And they still work. They're not exploded. There's not acid all over the place. But they just, after like one minute of use with this radio of just going through the menus, it does not hold charge. Now the real back battery I bought, These are nickel metal hydrate 1.2 volts it doesn't it's 1350 milliamp hours, so these were almost half the amount of milliamp hours, and they are they're done so Maybe I got a bad pack. I don't know I'm also I bought a Whole case of Westinghouse rechargeable batteries that I've had for probably seven or eight years. I haven't even brought those out to see if they work or not. Hopefully they're still good. But that's the question is, if you're not cycling these batteries and you're not using them, can you buy rechargeable batteries, put them on the shelf waiting for the balloon to go up and expect them to be able to hold a charge after sitting on the shelf for four or five years? That's a good question. Well, that's one of the things that the donor destruction kept battery companies in regularly in business for all through the Vietnam War. They used both the conventional, well, not even alkali batteries originally, remember, Rail Pack being the primary contractor, but not the only one. It was a radio factory that actually came up with a little more reliable NiCAD battery that was rechargeable. It was the big, big secret of health. During the middle or end of Vietnam, when they started building those for the military radios, PRCs, H9s, 10s, the 77s, the 25s, and all the rest. They were still just as bulky and heavy. And they've always had this problem with even in neutral storage, for whatever reason, some kind of reactive breakdown. Government policy for many years is just to dump them and dump them every six, seven years out of the market and, you know, somewhere, usually industrial supplies, and just have another inventory repurchased and they cycle them into the reserve and then they chuck the ones that are forward in the shelf out. and slide the next batch forward and then buy a whole new batch again under another contract. That was one of the things that RioBac was a big problem trying to do business with them because they had all of these guaranteed government, they're not the only one, but guaranteed government contracts for replenishment even with rechargeables. The problem I think we have right now, like you're saying, you've got rail packs. I don't know if those rail packs were made in the US. And the Chinese, as I've been talking about a lot, the problem is, they're bean counters in the extreme now. They've calculated how much they can get away with with the American market, and they thin everything out accordingly. I mean, it's just like hairline wires for a set of cheapie earbuds. I mean, it's the absolute number, amount of copper and strands of wire needed. to communicate, to commute the electrons down, excite them down that wire minimally to get whatever they want. I think they're doing the same thing with the batteries, and I think it's for the same reason, if you look at the strategic view, that they're diminishing our capability. We're relying on an enemy to produce products. So the problem we've got is, which is like I said, what I've been doing is looking at industrial inventory, and trying to find somebody who has older inventory that has been sitting, that hasn't been charged, discharged, but rather has never been serviced, never been charged up. They will take a charge even though I think there might be a degradation of 15 to 20% but what I remember with the numbers, with the long-term storage of any of the rechargeables, although again, I don't know if that includes the latest ion or whatever, I'd be willing to bet it does. For whatever reason, kind of like gasoline and internal combustion engines, they could do better but they don't want them to because then they don't sell more batteries. Correct. Correct. And I think that's our problem here. The people that are doing this, like everything else, they know communications is especially critical or at least we're really We're going to have to wean ourselves of the type of communications that has become a pandemic unto itself right now because the cell phone really is. But they still intentionally create whatever the designation is between the spooks and coops, the powers that be as far as what they want, to satisfy the customer but still force the customer to invest more resources and If something goes awry, they can stop production, or without stop production, stop sales, and very quickly, it's the lost in space robot, the power down. So that's where, remember we talked before about alternate power sources even bulkier off of some supply just to be able to get the unit to work. And that includes liquid. I'm seeing, Mark, that on Amazon, And whether you want to buy on Amazon or not, that's not the one I'm mentioning right, but there is on the market right now. You can buy AA 1.5 volt lithium ion rechargeable batteries. Okay, so just like the 18650s and the CR123s, they've got AA's that do recharge now. And in the past, all I've ever used as far as recharge was the nickel metal hydrate. I have not tried the lithium ion so I'm not sure how well they would pan out. So I guess I have to, I don't think I have. Sorry, let me open up my mic. What it comes down to is an investment where if they do work, then you're also going to be field testing to find out, although I might do a comparative study to see what's out there in the way of videos on the That's the one thing about YouTube. A lot of people at least make statements or are into certain niches where we can find them having already tested stuff out. Now, I always do that with an askew ear and eye because there is a problem with relying on third party databases like that. Many of the people there are scurrilous and are in fact misrepresenting or disingenuous about what they've done in the way of the test because they're either buddies to somebody else, they like a certain product and they don't like what the other person is doing. Some are just doing it for the sake of pissing them in the pot, stirring the pot. So you have to pay attention to these people when they're doing things or when they're showing what the equipment does. You have to kind of look at the rest of the work that they've done. First look at what they did, what they did that pertains to your subject. Then go and look at the rest of their database. And you can get a feel for things after a while to go, well, okay, number one, with most of these when we do, somebody will do an autopsy, but they don't do what is basically a evidence custody line where I got this in a box, and I just got this, and all of a sudden these outside, and like the ballistic helmets. It's just a bomb helmet. And they don't get any close ups, and they shoot it, and they go, see, it doesn't work. And it's like, well, first of all, it doesn't look quite like the same helmet that supposedly is the one that they're marketing. I was one thing I noticed about some of the stuff on the ballistic, you know, ballistic club. But it's also true with electronics. I've seen this several times and with guns. So I'm just cautioning in advance when you look at the surveys that are done out there, you go, okay, we'll see what is the person doing with the equipment? A lot of people are smart, they're doing time lapse now, which to me, It at least keeps the chain of evidence in line. You don't have to sit there and watch five hours worth of use. You do, but you see it in a few minutes. Okay, cool, that's how you should do it. Because you demonstrate that yes, I am running it, I didn't shut the machine off and turn it back on, five minutes later after I unplugged the good batteries and shoved bad batteries in. That's the thing that you got to watch for and so again typically with a lot of the stuff that we're buying out there What we usually do is a test batch just like you're talking about doing the ion batteries. I don't think we use that many of them ourselves But mostly because I'm still running off Yeah, these are great news by long technology. So if everyone hit like me I bought a lot of I probably bought 80 double-a batteries that were rechargeable three or four years ago. And I told you I had not used the Westinghouse AA batteries yet, but actually I broke open one of my Midland CD battery packs, and yes I did. I do these things and I forget. But I have been running a battery pack for about a year with the Westinghouse AA's, and they hold a charge, whereas the CVS batteries just failed. What's interesting is that my CB radio in Midland, I had it custom, it's a custom radio where they went in and adjusted. They did actually on a handheld a peak tune and a line and also expanded the frequency. And they told me that on the DoC meter it was running 4.2 watts. Whereas on my Albrecht, I know that typically you will run less than three watts. So, with less wattage, I'm going through my CVS batteries quicker than I did the Westinghouse batteries. Now, I will tell you this. There was a guy on eBay probably two years ago that was selling a battery pack for the Cherokee AH-100. And that's the, you know, the walkie talkie that just 10 to 12 meter that was really popular back in the 90s and early 2000s that had a bunch of different brands like the Magnum 1012 and... a few other bands, but he said on the battery pack it doesn't hold charge anymore and I was like well this would be awesome to get that battery pack and have an AH-100 battery pack as a spare on my Albrecht radio because it lines right up. So I got it and unlike my Albrecht radio that you can just separate the battery pack, crack it open and change the batteries out, this AH-100 battery, the plastic was Basically glued or melted together bonded together Yeah bonded together and then I opened it up and yes indeed it does have a recharge circuit in it But the battery pack it's some kind of battery that I am not familiar with It's a it's a shorter than a CR123 and it's fatter there are 11 batteries and they are Spot welded together with these pieces of metal strip. Yeah, it's a permanent battery pack and when this is dead a trade battery Yeah, right So now I've got the battery pack. It's split open. It's you know, I got it open With a Dremel tool and I can still use it but I would have to either I'd have to get it basically Have maybe go to batteries plus which I haven't tried that yet and see if they would make this to make this kind of battery or go online and see if I can get and buy it as a unit itself. Wondering of course if it would work better than the AA nickel metal hydrate or the lithium ion. I'll take a picture of this and I'll send it to you exactly what it looks like. Again what you'd be looking for, remember when I talked about this, Balfong's there is, they did, did. I have not seen any ads for them recently. When they first came out with most of these Balfam radios, they had a separate non-proprietary optional battery pack which allows you to use double A's and double A's depending on which radio it was. And they were in the same battery pack too. Yeah, it doesn't make any difference because again they always engineer them so that they'll accommodate the bigger battery whatever is being used. So the question is whether or not they made one for the unit that you have and or you've already got something to experiment with since you already took it apart if you're not worried about it. Okay the Balfang is the 70 centimeter and 2 meter radio. The Cherokee A8-100 is the 10, 11 and 12 meter and then if you get it You know, if you get it worked on you know, what? Right. Well, the thing is, okay, what I'm saying is you already understand that they've made those what you have is an old battery hull that right now you're not too worried about because so far it doesn't look too successful for rebuild at least his present mode you could take you could I know it's piecing together, but if you want to do a little experimentation if you go to some of the Oh, come on. Scientific Warehouse, there's a couple of others. They have a myriad of battery pack holders, battery holders, that are available in different sizes and one that might match what you need for the radio that you're talking, the pack you're talking about right now. Real quick, by what you described, that battery might be the industry battery version of a bottle that's used in Smoke alarms. There's three or four chubby stubbies that were made for smoke alarms that are long life. Some are rechargeable, depending on which company has made them. And they're basically in the same size range as the double A's. or the AAA's depending on which year they're made. The newer ones they've gone a little smaller but it's still chubbier than a regular AA battery. And those are available in a conventional, you know, with a proper stud and plate so you can put them in a regular battery pack. The other consideration is, like I said, if you look around to some of these trade companies, the other option is, and you see how they're assembled, is you desolder and re-solder new trade batteries in. But since that might be more trouble than it's worth. I'm going to take a picture of this. I'm going to take a picture of it and I'm going to send it to you between the end of the five and six hour. And then if you go to your email, I'll send it to theliberty.net, then you look at it and tell me what you think of it because there are no markings on this battery pack. There's nothing to say with the voltage. I mean the voltage obviously gonna have to be 1.5 to operate the radio, but it doesn't say the brand, doesn't say the milliamp power, they're just yellow. It was welded together. I'll take a nice picture of it and send it to you. Yeah, a little bit. And of course the reason I'm bringing up AA, okay, is that the Bao thing extended battery pack, you can buy those for like 10 bucks on eBay. and it's 3800 mAh and you can just, I think it's like 10 or 11 AA batteries or 8 or 9, I don't know, but you just put them in there and automatically when it goes on, you've got the recharging circuit inside the radio as opposed to inside the battery pack. But the reason I'm bringing up AA is because I personally like CV radio and that band more than I do the 2 meter and 70 centimeter. And the reason being is because GMRS, FRS and the other bands that are available in Balfin are going to be used by everybody. Whereas if you have CB... Oh right, I agree. Yeah, the typical, the typical, the first thing people that comes out of their mouth, they ask, CB is dead. Well, that's exactly why I want to use it is because it's dead. Because nobody wants to talk on CB radio. And that's exactly what I want is that I don't want anybody hearing what I'm saying to somebody. And if I've got it on low power... signal is only going to be going out a mile and a half, two miles anyway. So that's why I would rather use the, now the, I'm not for sure if a narrow bandwidth uses less power as far as, sucks up more milliamp hours than the CB radio, but I don't care. I would just much rather use the CB radio. There's less people on it. And I'll tell you another thing is that At any given time, for example, I'm in Orlando, you can jump on CB radio and go through the whole band and not hear anybody talking. And when they are talking, usually it's like four or five old truckers and they won't let you in on the conversation. And to me, that's perfect. But if you jump on a bow frame radio, you can hear everybody and your brother, and they can hear you as well. So I would rather have something that people don't use at all. And as far as my handheld Albrick radio, I can go, I've got 1200 channels on this radio. I can go all the way down to 25, no, 24, 665 and all the way up to 29, 665. So I've got the whole band with the free band to go up and down that most people don't go into. Because I'll tell you there's a lot of ham radio operators. They just don't go on 10 11 and 12 meter There's a view very few select people that go on those bands just like 7 meter. Nobody goes on 7 meter Most of your ham radio operators are on 2 meter 70 centimeter 6 meter and Around that area, but the other bands a lot of people are not on And I'm sorry to get off on, I know it's weapons Wednesday, but it's just something that happened this morning as I broke out this radio and I tried to charge it and it wouldn't hold a charge. So that's really the subject is what batteries are going to be able to stay alive for the most amount of time. And that gives us an idea as well. If you have, if you've bought double A rechargeable batteries, you may want to think about even if you've got them brand new in a pack like I do. You may want to think about going out and buying a couple of sets of lithium ion because two is one, one is none. You've got to have redundant systems. And if these rechargeable batteries are no good after one year and this whole scenario lasts, like you said, it's going to be lasting 15, 20 years. Are we going to be able to get rechargeable batteries during that time? That's the question. The good point on that before we go any farther, number one, that would be one of the priorities is battery manufacturing. The only thing that's restricting as much as anything, the only thing that is restricting manufacturing in most categories, but especially in batteries, is the EPA. If we put a bullet in the EPA and kill it, enter the doornail and get rid of it and it's gone, all of a sudden, all the things that we used to manufacture here, we would be manufacturing here and it'd still be clean enough It will be with an acceptable standards to produce. It's just that the in-all, attentive and intentionally enemy operating federal agencies, their purpose is to drive American industry down for the globalist agenda. Battery manufacturing is not that difficult. And because the good thing is this, we don't have to invent anything. We simply have to learn how to make what we already know can be made. And that's a big plus. See, that's the thing about when I watch sci-fi and I love sci-fi. Well, the electricity all went out, so we're going to go to steam, right? Well, we go to steam. And by the way, the age of chemistry and steam were before the age of electronics. And I would point out that smokeless powder predates electricity. Just a heads up for you. Huh? What do you mean? We'd be in the Stone Age. Only you would be in the Stone Age. Thinking people would be up on their feet in the heartbeat and they would be entrepreneurs. They would very quickly figure out what we have a need for. I mean, the cell phones are dead. As far as I'm concerned, here's what's going to happen. When the thing, you know, feces hits the oscillating device, the enemy will keep the cell phones on only so they can track you. They'll only keep them on enough that you'll hope they'll come back online And so everybody will carry a dog leash with a tracking system until they get picked up or they decide to tell you, hey, by the way, they're not going to work. And by the way, you can't travel. Oh, and by the way, we have National ID card mandatory now. Oh, and by the way, foreign troops are going to be telling you what to do. Oh, and by, you know, we get to that point where Schuener has anyway. But in manufacturing of, you know, for instance, one of the things, that's why I was pointing out using the components, You already have a radio pack, battery pack, that is not useful. And since you already did have to cobble it a little in order to get into it to find out what was there, it wouldn't be hard to actually build a utility pack that would match the power output. You don't know how many cells you have there. Typically, they are 1.5 volts for each of those cells. So all you have to do is determine the size of the battery pack, and then you're going to have to encase it. But you still have to be able to access. Now, you may or may not want to even weatherize it. I mean, because depending on how you're going to have to use it in the field, when I say weatherize, I mean, you can seal it. But you can't have it in such a way that you can't access those batteries. So let me tell you, you want to make sure I'm sorry, I this battery pack when you open up a lot of battery packs, they have like individual trays for each one of these Double-a batteries, okay, and This particular one does not have that the whole bottom is smooth so they can put in whatever batteries they want So if I wanted to put in doubly 9 double-a batteries in this like what is available in my other age 100 and then just duct-taking together and then solder the wires onto the recharge circuit. I'm back in business. Right, exactly. It could be done crude. Like I said, it could be crude, but you can be a little more sophisticated. Like I said, with an existing battery, somebody ordered the engineering, a reliable, positive, just quick-release AA battery pack would be off the shelf. It would be matched up to size because they come both ways where you either have a deep tray where you have to wiggle them into place or a lot of them they make for scientific pray or for R&D. They have say two decks but you flip it. One's on one side, one's on the other. And like you said, if you're just going to tape it into place, then a holder like that would be very convenient because either you're using the rechargeables or your scavenging whatever battery is out there and using it be it an Alkali or whatever. The other thing is, go ahead. The Midland, it's the battery pack for their, it's the same as the Allen radio over in the UK, the Allen 42, but this Midland CB radio which has It's the 75-822. It has a detachable battery pack. It's narrower than the battery pack for the Albrecht and the Cherokee. But guess what? It slides on and the radio for the Cherokee, the Albrecht, powers up and works normally. I found that out by going on a forum and listening to the guys talk about it because they were having a hard time. Because they don't make these radios anymore, they were having a hard time finding battery packs because they've all been sucked up and they're like, hey, just so you guys know, just take your Allen 42 or your M75822, it slides right on the Cherokee, or the Magnum 1012 or any of these other radios, powers right up, works just fine. So I just bought the AH100 battery pack. Because, you know, you've got your first kind of cool, which is functionality, and then you've got your second kind of cool, which is like, you're the only one in the neighborhood that has it. You know, that's kind of why I bought it. Well, you know, what's funny is, real quick, you know, I've heard some people say what you just said, and it's asinine. You know, CB is dead. It's like, really? Why? Well, well, okay, it's the most dominant. I mean, granted, the Chinese cranked out a bunch of other radios. But the bottom line is for time and service, the CV radio net has been longest in grade. In fact, it's now competing against the kickoff period for other different types of, like crystal radio, et cetera, and its longevity in the niche that it's in, for being a mobile radio unit. CB is still very, very practical. And again, I can emphasize enough for the very reason we've been talking about. Guys, right now, what will happen is right now it's empty. I'm going to tell you what's going to take place. Just like we said before, FRS radios are going to be jammed not by the government. It's going to be by use. The farther you get away from a metropolitan area, the more likely you'll be able to use an FRS radio. In an in-city, in-town area, it's going to be questionable. Another one that really is great right now, and most people wouldn't think about it, but remember Realistic offered them and a couple of the companies did too, were the five-channel FM headset and handheld radios. They were simple, they were easy, not as robust as they could have been, but the interesting thing is, they're passe. So there are another one just like CB where you literally have talk and trade. You have control. Nobody's going to be there right away. But what's going to happen with CB is everybody has a CB sitting somewhere or they can still buy one. And as they get frustrated with the, you know, Bifrong and with the, you know, with whatever they're using and whatever has been offered in commercial venue, when they get to the point where they can't do anymore there, They're going to be looking for solutions. The short term will be like, I'll wait and see if everybody gets off. Well, that ain't going to happen. As long as the battery lasts and power comes out of the wall in some form, the FRS radio will continue to be a clutter in town. Not that it wouldn't be used, but you're either going to become courtesy centered, or like what happened with CV radio, people are going to come down to your neighborhood and be glimming shit out of you because you've been crowding the channel. They used to do that with people with CB radios, so I know it's going to happen in town again with Detroit or Chicago because those radios are used by Thugalicious. Thugalicious wants his private phone system not to be interfered with. So initially people will be smart ass and think, what are you going to do? It's like, I understand that you're feeling like a 406 Oxford. How'd you know that? Oh, I shouldn't have said that. Well, that's because my boys are outside your house right now and they're beating your car to death. Now, if you stay off for frequency, I'll tell them to stop. See, that's what's going to happen. The violent part about this, the courtesy that we have on CB is already there. And the first is, like you said, isolation. Go ahead. The FRS radio is only operating on a third of a watt anyway. The Bao things... They have a couple of models out there that are high power that operate on up to eight watts But when these guys put them on dosimeters, those radios are barely operating at 4.5 maybe 4.8 watts. So You know, yeah, they're operating with a decent frequency but the thing about it is is that if you go on eBay and you try to look for It used to be a few years ago that you could find handheld radios for nothing. You know, you can get them for nothing. And now, not so much. You know, maybe the minimum price that you're going to pay for a handheld even used is like 35, 40 bucks. As far as a base radio, nobody puts out, then the Galaxy put out the 2547 for a while. And up until a few years ago, they don't make that brand new anymore. And it was, Not an export only. It was an actual true CB radio, just had the 40 channels. So as far as like a base station, those are difficult to get. But I will tell you this, if you buy a Cobra or a Midland mobile CB radio, it's just plain Jane volume and squab control. It has a channel knob, and then it has a plug-in for the cigarette lighter. If you wanted to use that as a base radio, you could use it inside the house. And all you have to do is it only costs $5 for a wall transformer. You plug into the wall and you can slide in the cigarette lighter male end into the female end of the transformer. It's five bucks. It goes from 110 volts, transforms it to 12 volts. So you can use... a $39.95 CV radio inside your house as long as you put up a decent base station antenna. It's better to put up a base station antenna if you're gonna be stationary as opposed to a mobile antenna system. But I keep trying to convince my friends, I'm like, look, it's gonna cost you about 200 bucks total. You're gonna buy the radio, the cable, you're going to find the antenna, we're going to go get a long pole and stick it up in the backyard. And that way, if anything happens, you can take a car battery and then hook a trans, an inverter to it. And you can sit there on four watts. If you have a decent antenna that's far enough up in the air, we can have a whole group of people talking to each other. Mark, I can't convince them to do it. Because they're like, ah, it's never going to happen. And then 2020, oh, wow, that's crazy. Maybe I'll buy another couple hundred rounds of ammunition. Didn't buy a deep freezer. Didn't buy food. Don't have any water storage. And if they're not going to do any of that, the last thing I'm going to convince them to do is spend 200 bucks on a CB radio system for their house when they can't, when everything's locked down or everything's in total disarray, which I think is going to happen. Just today, as opposed to what I told you yesterday about Washington, DC FBI building shut down. Now if you go on Twitter and you type in Washington, DC closed, there's a whole bunch of stuff that is totally closed in Washington, DC now for whatever reason. And different cities around the United States, reports are coming in where people are saying, yeah, my cousin's in the Marines. He got called up to go on to DC. So, you know. I just had a conversation before we came up on the air. We had a conversation with somebody who just had that happen. Their boy is right now. In fact, this here in Michigan, they're upstate. So it's happening. There's hiccups going on all over the place with regard to moving people up from reserve status to actually offering them an accurate job or at least apparently temporary mobilization in addition to everything else. And when they do that, that means that they've got something in the works. And the only thing is, you can usually tell if it's going to be overseas or if it's going to be somewhere else, like, well, say nearby. All of this appears to be nearby. There's nothing, you know, we're going to be war with China. Oh, yeah, maybe. But that's not what this is for. If you've been in the military, that's how you could pick your jobs. If you pay attention to what they're offering, what their proposal is, you can pretty well figure out where you're going. Here's what I want to say. You're focusing on the American people. The last thing I want to say about CB radio is that we don't need a total meltdown in the grid or the infrastructure in order to make CB useful because If you've seen the cyber attacks on the system recently, I don't forget who it was, United Airlines or whoever, they just grounded all their planes yesterday, all of them, because of a cyber attack, okay? So what if they start doing rolling blackouts or brownouts all over the United States? It's gonna affect your cell phone usage as well. If you don't have a CB radio in your home or some kind of peer-to-peer communication that goes farther than just a handheld radio, then for whatever that period of blackout or brownout, you will not be able to talk to anybody. So what is that gonna cost you? These people are spending, I just went to Best Buy and I got a new cell phone and I paid $179 on a decent cell phone. I'm seeing cell phones marked for like $17 and $1,800. If people can spend $500 and $600 on a cell phone. Why can't they spend $250 on a base station for their home? It's not that hard. It's really not. And they can buy a decent base station antenna, like a serial 827. And you get a ground plane for a serial 827. You put it up on a whole... Where the ground plane goes over the roof of your home even if you're still only on four watts You're heading shoulders above any handheld in the neighborhood. You're there. We had mark. Hang on. Let me see if I can find I have oh Sorry about that. Oh, I'm looking for a mark. Here we go. I'll let it sell. Sorry about that one two three I could hear you. I heard everything you said One of the things to remember is make it fun. I mean in fact even like I said coffin humor is quite useful by the way. But you know what you usually I do is also challenge people and I always use the soppy pocket clip thing or you know hey you know World War 3 congratulations you know Captain Neutron in the distance now what do you do? And everybody you know you got it you got to break them up but you want to make it fun to use too. It's like hey let's go do this. get people motivated that way. We're almost to the top. We're going to have to take a break here. So I'm going to remind everybody again, what we're talking about is not just CB radio, but the radio grid in general that needs to be up in all categories. Yeah, even copper line. If you get some copper line, if you want to communicate with your neighbors or do something that way with a direct line, you can find the stuff out there to do it. They're like in Michigan. They're destroying the copper line grid. They're they're intentionally going out and destroying it There's none that says well, they're destroying that's in fact. We saw them do one yesterday They destroyed literally you know guys have you ever seen the the phone man along the road? He's playing with a bunch of calipers You know a bunch of clips alligator clips, and there's he's got a cover open and there's all these connectors You see all these wires. That's what Ed's talking about. They aren't pulling the wire out They've been told that if they get a chance, destroy the hub so that you guys can't hook up to it. That's how it's done with the regime. It's an intentional destruction of our infrastructure. That has been a stable infrastructure that has been there for you. It's worked better when the cell phones get jammed, okay? The telephone network, the grid, unless it was operated by a person, it's never really been jammed to the point where you can't get a 911 call through. The newer systems where everything's got to go through wireless, everything's got to be through the computer, it's not analog. So yeah, it's affected by power outage. It's like the BS is going on down here, exactly what you're talking about, rolling blackouts. Well, we've got ERCOT in control of everything. I found more out about that, Dad. Apparently, we had to join ERCOT because If we didn't, it was going to cost Lubbock around $2 million to build a new power plant. Now we're with ERCOT and ERCOT doesn't have enough power plants online to maintain the area. So they're requiring communities that are parts of ERCOT to build new power plants. It's going to cost communities around $4 million apiece. Who do you think is one of the communities that want to build a power plant for $4 million? Lubbock. We couldn't afford one at $2 million, but we're going to build one for $4 million. That means some assets pocketing that much more money. Tell you what, we are at the top though. We got to take a break? In fact, a little past, we have our friends out there that are rebroadcasting. We want to say thank you to all of our micro FM's. Another independent broadcast mechanism. One of the guys here local is doing some really great traffic radio in the morning on his micro FM station. And the local radio stations, the bigger ones, don't do it because they don't bother. They're not interested in the community. So guess what? Everybody's tuning in because the kid goes to the fire and rescue. and to the police service and reads out the roadblocks and road stoppages first thing in the morning and saving people time getting to work. Guys can all do this people. God bless our Republic. Get the new world order. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire is on the run. We're in the march for DNA. Right. 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 gonna beat you. We're gonna work you out of office or suck on my machine. Politicians. No, okay. Just get any blunt objects together, alright? If you get corners, bash them in the head. That seems to work out. Keep together, stay sharp, and follow me. 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. The tyrant flavored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. It's number you traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors. So their children will be there. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic in each God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright, as Iowoki vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god-given rite, we only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, dill the land of the free? The drums. I hear the drums. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I mark her key One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories Southwest East South and North Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, Liberty Tree Radio on satellite and we are on AM&FM micro stations, CBE base stations and UltraNet hallmark and golden spike technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there in Lower 49. including the great state of Jefferson along with CONUS, the Outlying Two States, and the territories. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is 6.11 p.m. Eastern Standard Time at the bottom of the state of Michigan and all the rest of the eastern part of the United States. It is the 16th of June and it is the 13th year of open favian socialist and soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2021 old earth calendar 2021 battle for the republic pants of swords. Let the battle begin and of course, well, let's already start it's obvious the bad guys are in motion You know the hiccups over the last year and a half each one some of the most vulgar And people told me first of all, well, they'll never do that. Well, they did. And well, well, they'll never do that. And they have. And they'll never do that. And then we have the dancing seven and nine year olds sounding like Barnacle Bill the Sailor jiggling their butt in front of a bunch of other queer, pedo perverts while the kid cross dresses and the government thinks it's just wonderful. regime, the people in the government, and the school systems especially love that. They've got a lot of pedos and queers that are the principals, superintendents, and the teachers. So make them mistake that little minority click is a big problem. But that's not all. There have been all kinds of other fascinating things where they wouldn't do that, and they haven't. Now that's not... We're not panicking about that. In fact, do I saw it? Oh my God, I never went about. No, actually it's all stuff that we knew they wanted to do and have had to back off and then wanted to do. But at a certain point, the fruit loops that are running the now the the Twilight Zone Circus, they just got to act. They just got to do it. They just got to. They just they have to. They're they're frothing at the mouths at the opportunity to petal your kids, murder you and rape Kill Pillow and you learn the country. So we need to be prepared for that so we can just put their sorry ass down and make sure they're dead for good. That settles it real quick. And smile while you're doing it. Remember, we shall sing as we slay and we shall be joyful. So as it is, real quick, we were talking about a subject and I pointed out at the very end, yeah, these are railvacs that are sitting here. They're the lower end, you know, the baseline railvacs that are, it's just a random power pack we have for some other Ozden stuff. Plus it was a mix. I think they probably have every branch of battery and service that exists just a heads up on that because you're always collecting I always watch if something I'll tell you what for instance and this the These are still around but see sell batteries and see how much stuff is actually being built with sees not much In anything but the other day I ended up with 60 Well, white cover, NiCad batteries, they all come up to charge. I have a NiCad charger, and they work just fine. Now, I have to test them to see how long they're going to run, but if they worked for any period of time since they basically got them for free, I paid a dollar for the whole box, which included, oh, some power strips, the batteries and cells, which is really what I was interested in. I think I paid $1.25 and that's because I threw something else in from another thing on the table and I had all the other electronics and carried over to the estate sale, you know, count up and wow, I just got ripped off. No, I didn't. Hell, it'd be worth it for the scrap weight or for, you know, raw materials for some other work. There's stuff you can do with the interior batteries, guys, that we have. We're not talking about for the moment on the air, but it is weapons-wend thing. So heads up. Remember, Another thing about batteries, and in fact I should have mentioned this earlier, we're talking about weapons. Guys, you know, you want to see that guy, you know, you're watching with the binoculars, the enemy patrol is moving towards the kill zone, and the guy up front puts his foot down on that piece of plywood that has the copper strip on the top and the other one down below and the gravel over top of it very softly dusted to look like the rest of the road even with a few footprints. And when he steps on that plate, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom Now how much power did I need for that? I only need 1.5 volts or maybe 3 volts for only one step. It's not going to retalk on it again. Remember, none of your batteries are obsolete. This is why I've mentioned many times you take the batteries and you mark them when you know that they're on, you know, in the rechargeables especially. Mark them with an X, whatever you want to do, and put them over in a box category C. Category C is going one one way. It's going to be over there when they pull the drill for them. And it's going to be over there when they decide to try and be set behind that car for cover and yeah, the flame weapon worked really good. We have boom with food gas. Okay. I forgive you. The food gas with a little bit of gasoline can mixed in. Okay. I can't one gallon gas can metal. They're perfect. Metal, not plastic. Okay. And we got to call her. Who do we have? That is Todd in Orlando again. I sent you a couple emails during the break. I don't know if you got them and looked at them. The first one is the picture of the AH100 battery pack with the original battery that it had in it. And then the second one, I sent you a picture of my Albrecht AE2990 with the battery pack that came with that. And you can see the difference between the two. Sounds good. I'll have to, I'm not where I can access it for the moment though. Okay, that's fine. Well just to let you know, and I've been harping on this for the longest time, is I did send a picture, I included a picture of the handheld antenna that is telescopic. It is very difficult right now to buy a telescopic antenna for CB radio. And there's only one guy on the planet that makes them that I know of and that's a guy on eBay He's over in Thailand and his username is Jeep Bangkok like the city Jeep Bangkok and those antennas are shipped for about $25 and I sent you a picture of one the thing I like about his particular antenna is that you can ask him to send you a stationary, these are base loaded antennas by the way, and you can ask him to send you one with a stationary base where it's solid or one with a coil so that it flexes. And the reason I like that is because if you run into something or If you've got the CB down on the floorboard and you put some groceries down on it or something, the antenna flexes so it won't break and it won't break the DMC mount. And of course it extends as well because most of these rubber ducky antennas for CB radio are garbage. They are a hundred and two inches but they're all coiled up and they don't really work as well as an antenna that You can extend out to 45 inches like this one. So if you do have a handheld CD CD radio Go on eBay looks for this guy Jeep Bangkok. He does a whole bunch of different antennas and He custom makes them and their their quality. I like him better than the Mfj antennas because I had a couple of those I bought one in 10 meter and one in 12 meter and one in 10 meter broke because it was just a big solid base loaded antenna it was you know, telescopic, but it's made out of this hard plastic that if it takes any abusive breaks, then you've got a broken antenna. So, you know, what's that? Well, the other thing is that, like you said, is watch for, and that's why I've been hitting every estate sale, watch for old earth technology from the 60s, 70s and 80s. The people that are not necessarily dying, okay, and the estate sale doesn't mean they're dead, but the guy who owns the place might be standing right there, which is what happened the other day with us. And you can get a history on what it is or get some background if it's something you're not sure of. So always check the local estate sales coming up on the weekend. You know, it's Wednesday, so Thursday, Friday, Saturday, you never know. Look at Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist, and there's other places too. But, you know, Facebook seems to be thready. I think a lot more people are even, you know, walking away from Facebook. day by day and it means that their system is screwed up. They're trying to make it look like they still have the same volume and they don't. But either way, if you go through and check, they do have estate sales and then also watch, just pay attention when you're going down the road. Some of the best sales I've read into were by accident here recently. Got a whole pile of radio equipment, got a handful of handhelds, I haven't even looked at all of them yet. And because they need to clear the place out, If they find somebody who has an interest, they really will cooperate with you on the price. So that's another way to find the stuff. If that's a chance item though, and having somebody who's actually building the technology right now is a good thing. So we want to keep that person in business too. If he's done the spring-loaded, basically what he's mimicking are a lot of the military configured radio antennas the way that they traditionally were built. The extendables that were out there, The self-compressing where they dropped down onto themselves, that was a style that came and went about two or three times in military radios. I think it's kind of out there again. But the big thing, like you said, the problem is as is the case with the static line antenna for most of the military backpack radios, it is rigid. It does not have any flex potential, so you can't just run through the woods with it. Or, like you said, if you're in place, you can't do anything other than try to keep it where it belongs so it doesn't get interfered with with other physical objects that might make it go crack, snap, break. The rubber impact type, the biggest problem with all of them is that, especially if they're new, is that the, again, the bean counters have negated putting the infrared protection technology, you know, infrared protection juice, basically, guys. The filament that needs to be in there isn't incorporated into the chip. And so the stuff breaks down simply because of light. More than anything else, moisture is not as much an issue. It's light, it's just radiation. visible spectrum and non visible spectrum. What happens is the stuff breaks down. It's like human tissue. You didn't put sun tan lotion on it. Okay. You didn't use any any cocoa butter on it today. And so what happens over a period of time that's where the that's why it breaks down the way that it does and they don't compress it as much. This is another thing we've been talking about because most people ask you know why isn't the stuff that's older holding together but the newer stuff isn't? Because what they're doing is when they're doing the mold, for instance, you know, you can determine the level of pressure and compression of material that's going to go into the mold. That's something most people haven't done in the industry. There's a number of different techniques for lightening the pajamas, okay, lightening the blue jeans. And that's what's been happening most recently, which is, by the way, when this stuff breaks down, take a close look at it. It looks more granular, larger granule. It doesn't have that fine, fine bead or you almost can see that it looks like it's made up of something, but you can't figure out almost like one piece, like it's just a slick piece of rubber. If you pay attention to a lot of the cheaper stuff or the newer stuff, especially if there's no IR protection, the individual cells compress, they literally suck into each other. And what happens is you can see this looks like Granular cheese or actually like cork. White cork looks only imagine smaller format. You know cork you can see the individual cells. Well, that's basically what's happening with that polymer. And this is another thing we need to think forward about because we again if you chins on it then what's the survivability of your equipment? If you're going to build for a military application especially or for ocean use or water use, I've mentioned another category for years here, mine radios. Motorola had standard service radios. They had police and fire. But then they had another category for years and they were a mine radio. Now these take, first of all, are designed to take more moisture. Their water pass flash seal systems were of a very different polymer because it didn't just deal with H2O, but it may have to deal with a corrosive depending upon the environment. So the polymers were a higher quality. For instance, like marine grade, marine grade has to be very aggressive. The polymers have to be aggressive. in order for them to fight and resist, not just salt water. Remember salt water is mineral water. There's a lot of other stuff in the water you don't think about. It's good for you, but not good necessarily for plastic. So there's a lot more that goes into building these things that you might think. And if we're going to build them in the future, we need to start collecting the data so we know what to do later on. Anyway, I tell you what, I want to get into a couple of the subjects though, but this is something that needs to be talked about. So we'll follow up on it. If I can, I'll try to get to the emails. I may not be able to tonight. I may have to wait until tomorrow in order to follow up on that. That's the only thing. And I'll know in a few minutes after I've done with the program. Well, 40 minutes. Yeah, 40 minutes. It's OK, Mark. I just wanted to give you a point of reference. I wanted you to have the picture of the antenna as well because on CB radio it's good but it's only as good as the antenna that's being used. Right and the other thing, I'll tell you what, we used to have a couple of really great private manufacturers that I've lost track of that are here in the south central part of Michigan. I've already put feelers out to see if the gentlemen are still building because they're I know they're still on the radio but I don't know if they've still got their little manufacturing operations going. They did an Antron copy for less than $100 that was in fact it's one of the models that I used that survived the hurricane while the tornado would be that hit us and it got hit by the tornado dead on. Just as a heads up and it was in the brick and rubble wreckage think about that it was in the brick and rubble wreckage and We actually pulled it out of the rubble found all the pieces screwed it all back together and It's it's working, but it's amazing It disassembled because of the tornado we say how the wind I think it actually unscrewed It didn't get pulled apart of the threads would have been buggered up So strangely enough, it got disassembled during the storm, during when the tornado hit. And it was on the bottom almost because the way the chimney went, the chimney went and was broken up and disassembled and fell, because it disassembled it. Nice thing is it was easy to use those bricks later to put the chimney back up. But it was a pile of rubble and everybody goes, oh, this is all destroyed. And I said, no, it's an archaeological dig. So we went through and sure enough, there was a first piece. The only thing I did do was change the end of the antenna, three pieces. And I used a standard replacement end fixture. You can buy them for $11 for the Antrons. And what I did is I kept the old one. I painted it. But it works. It works just as good now as it did when I bought it, what, 30 years ago? Well, 25 years ago. Just a heads up on that. Go ahead, caller. Hey, Mark, I'm on amomand.com, and they have 5.56 by 45. millimeter IMI 55 grain FMJ 1200 rounds for $780 now that is really military industry. IMI okay ball ammunition 556 556 by 45 55 grain 1200 rounds for $780 at amomand.com and for 1200 rounds 1200 rounds yep 65 cents a round Excellent. Well, again, this is the Israelis, but excellent. You know, again, I'll take anything that's 2-2-3 right now or 5-5-6 and put it in a rifle. Yep. And that's ammo man. Yeah. Ammo man, that includes the shipping. Is there anything over 100, now? Yup. Yep. And it's not going to be a problem because that's a case lot. So you're going to be in free shipping category. So what you see is what you get price-wise, which is good. Mm-hmm. I'm on their email and I said it was one of the, I'm on their email and I said that was one of the things they had on their email special that they have. I think what's funny about this is we're going to see whatever little relief takes place for a little bit is going to be the two rifle calibers 5.56 and 7.62x39. 7.62x39 never went out of, you know, out into the, you know, universe, out stellar price. But what's interesting is 9 millimeter is still just as expensive yesterday as was the day before so and today and it's one of those things where I don't think that's gonna I don't think it's gonna recover the way it should Because the powers that be like the prices where they are to a degree not just the sellers I'm talking to government government tells them what about what the Government is telling these people mostly what to do. Let's put it that way They're not friendly to you that much if the government tells them piss on the American people they piss on the American people and they have and they're Just heads up. I'm talking about an animal man. I'm talking about where the stuff all comes from always keep that in mind Anything else anything else jump off the wall there? How about 40 caliber 40 Smith and Wesson did they have any in stock? Let me check go ahead and do that meanwhile one thing I would point out Guys, one of the places from the scraper to know what stuff's worth, check your scrapyards locally. A lot of the departments don't, you know, well, what their management claims is they don't want the peasants to get the brass, so they don't turn the brass back in into the regular circle of life. And the stuff ends up, hold on, and the stuff ends up over at the scrapyard. Well, the guy in the scrapyard can re-sell. And we did pick up three five-gallon pails of nickel and conventional brass, 40 Smith and Wesson, a combination of, I think it was flinchchester, and also some T-MAX or whatever it was. And we paid the normal weight, the resale weight for brass. So that's not been a bad price. So just a heads up, if you go over to the regular scrappers you've got, usually they just put it in buckets and they'll like these guys did and they'll put it inside. We got a couple of companies here locally that have done that for years for us when they get stuff from the other places they just put it in the buckets and put it out of sight and then when somebody shows up they tell you what the price is and you're very happy. So go ahead and jump in there. Yeah they got 42, they got 40 S&W's. 1,000 rounds, let's see, 40 SNW DCI Blazer 165 grain FMJ 1,000 rounds for $650, but 65 cents too. Also they have, if you don't want to do, they got 40 SNW PMC Brown 165 grain FMJ FP, 300 rounds for $215. So if you want to just do 300 rounds, But yeah, which is more affordable for the average person, right? Yeah, and Remember anything over $100 is free shipping, but the will tip tied you tax which usually isn't much Yeah, that's one thing that I finally pressed into the internet world is taxation. So and That's pretty well across the board with everybody at every level guys, even if you're doing wholesale And that's my neurons right now. They're they're just automatically, you know pulling the taxes one way no matter what state you're in those major So again, there's some 40 Smith again about 65 cents around it's cheaper to fire a 5 5 6 although not much or it's cheaper to fire a 7 6 2 by 39 a lot than it is to fire a 40 or a 9 millimeter right now and again 40 because of the cop shops, although it doesn't have the military base and That's the big advantage of 9mm. Why 9mm never left us. When 40 Smith came out, guys, remember people were telling you, you can get rid of your 9s because the 40 Smith and Washington is going to be, that's going to be it and it's going to take over. And that said, get rid of your 9mm pistols. Well, nobody's ever going to get rid of their 9mm pistols. They might sell them per se to somebody, which means they're still out there. Well, guys, there's more than 120 years worth of correction. About 125 years worth of 9mm Parabellum. out there. So Mars, it's probably they're probably gonna keep building nines for a while. But 40 Smith is the next in line for, you know, the department guns, which is why you're gonna find the scrap brass laying around. Because they don't want you to have it. So they would have crushed it if they were, well, we don't want to say anymore. We don't want to be smart. Go ahead, jump in there. 9mm Wolf 115 grain FMJ, 1000 round steel case, $510. That's fifty one cents. Well that means I can still buy almost two seven sixty by thirty nine rounds for the price of one nine millimeter. It used to be three nine millimeter rounds for the price of one seven sixty by thirty nine or five five six. What the hell. Well anyway at least it's a little. Yeah because right here seven sixty by thirty nine two up. One hundred twenty two grain FMJ a thousand rounds for three hundred and forty dollars. That might break me. It's 34 cents around. Uh oh. Still there? Yeah. Okay good. It sounds like it's going right off. And the most expensive route, 760 by 39, is 38 cents around. Whoa. Yeah, I'm just going through... Now this is amoman.com. Again, that's amoman.com. Amoman.com. Go there. Go there and... and just look around for different ammo prices like I am. I mean, and you'll be surprised. Let's see, 12 gauge. Ooh, they got 12 gauge bio-amble lux, LED 2.75, 1.18 ounce, number nine shot, $250 on for $139.00. Who's manufactured it? That's not a bad price, even under... It looks like... 12 gauge bio ammo, lux, bio ammo I guess is the manufacturer. Bio ammo? B-I-A-O-A-M-O. Bio, yeah. Well I told you there would be some unique names that pop up over a period of time. Bio ammo. What is it doing when it hits? Oh you'll find out. You'll find out. Well still again, I don't care. Shotgun shells for me again with buckshot. It's like I don't care who the manufacturer is. Pretty much they're all gonna put the boat in the same direction. Yeah, well if it's a better price, that's the way to go. And then here's 12 gauge Biacci heavy target shooting dynamic. 2.75 to 1.8 number 8 shot. 250 rounds for $160. 12 gauge is pretty cheap. This is the cheapest I've seen in a long time. And number eight, everybody keeps asking me, why are the fine bird shot? It's not bird shot. It's basically you're shooting somebody in closed quarters with a bean bag charge of really nasty small tiny pellets. But if you miss and it hits the wall, it's probably going to stop right there and not shoot your friend, neighbor, or the family member in the next room. That's the whole idea, guys. But if it hits somebody, oh, it's horrific. In fact, at close range because remember that one thing to remember guys, you're all using these modern cups, you know, slash wads and inside a house, if you pull the trigger on a 12 gauge, biggest problem is again, it always complains about spread with, you know, like, you know, you want to spread out. Well, in this case, the idea is that you probably can get a pretty good beat on them and there isn't going to be much time for the, uh, for the little pedals to open up on that wad. So the most of the charge is staying right there like a beanbag, but when it hits it just bursts. Okay, that's the only way to describe it. And in fact, the limitation years ago was that, oh my God, you people are horrible than all guns because they're using buckshot. So a lot of people started, what they did, you use like, if you had a pistol, you use a wad cutter load. It's actually quite devastating anyway. Watt Cutter in a 38 does a real good job of putting all the energy on target, but it doesn't go very far. If you miss, it's not going through five houses. What's interesting is then people started to use, oh well, because of liability, they started using bird loads. Well, then they started evaluating and the autopsies that were going on, they were going, oh my God, this is so inhumane. It was like the shell exploded in the body. And all it was was basically trapping skeet loads. Well, everybody started hearing more about that, and that's why you now see on the market, especially for close defense, very commonly seven, eight, or nine. And again, it's not going to get a chance to go very far. I mean, if you're inside your house, what's the biggest room you're in? What's the distance from where you could be standing in a doorframe to the next part of the house where somebody might be standing? Not very far, is it? So again, when you think about what's happening there, you've got this semi, it's a viscous load. It's like, it's gravelly solid. Okay, lead kind of sticks together for a bit there, it's malleable. But the moment that it hits something, the kinetic energy and the drive and the hydraulic process, it is a meat chopper. And by the way, whatever it is, it's spread out. You're not going to go with a poursop and find all those little pellets, okay? You're stuck with a lot of that in your height for the rest of your life or until it works out of your body. And it has to go to the surface where it came from. Not going out the other way. So, I'll tell you what we're going to do. We are past the break, but Edward, if you could, I wanted to play this today because the song is very apropos with what's coming. The song is by Blind Guardian. and it's Curse My Name. We played it before, it's a little long, but if you could, I'll tell you what, Blind Guardian's version's really great. There is a cover version by a woman, it's easier to spot because it's red-haired. If that particular cover pops up, we'll play that one, but if not, Blind Guardian's version is fine. Both are excellent, by the way. The reason I like the Young Lady's version with the group that she put together, the clarity of the words because Blind Guardian is international and so while they are English, and it is English, the construct and the way the song was executed by the other party is easily legible, let's put it that way. But both songs are cool. So if we could, Blind Guardian, and curse my name because the battle we're going into, the other side, they don't like us, they're already cursing us. They hate us for the past. Oh, they want to murder you all. They want to murder everybody. Actually, they even like to kill themselves, but they want to kill of you first because they're very self-loathing and they take their self-loathing and they project it onto all of us. And they should be self-loathing. Have you ever seen any of these creatures? Oh my God, and they're horrible anyway. I mean, look at the petal sniffer meat puppet. It's like, eh, can you imagine? And we've already seen Hunter Biden videos of some of the stuff that he did, which means, you know, I worry, well, yeah, it's kind of like a representation of what Uncle Mark's been telling you about with Washington DC for decades. Only now you get to see more of it, right? How the public, because their arrogance is just so great. And that means there are going to be ramifications. And when we win, well, again, I can't be everywhere. So if we could, blind guardian dash curse my name. When it pops up, I'm going to shut up, is what I'm going to do. In the meantime, a couple of other things I want to remind everybody about. Over at Apex Gun Parts, they have a bunch of other items that have come in in American components and pieces. So if you have the M1A or if you have a number of other standard US arms from the last 60, 70 years, you might want to go check to see what it is that's been coming in with the parts inventory. Now, we don't have any complete guns, but spare parts, especially the critical component, firing tanks, tractor, ejector, those should be the priority for every one of you listening, especially if you have a standard Marshall arm. I don't care what it is, Mauser, Enfield, Lavelle, If you have a 3040 Craig, by the way there are a lot of parts I'm fascinated with. There's a bunch of Span-Am 3040 Craig parts that have been popping up, not just with Apex. And that's Spanish-American War, 1898, 1899. Yeah, back there 120 years ago. The Craig's are a good rifle. They're just not a fast rifle when it comes to remoting. But in reality, if you were good with it, that's not necessarily true either. However, the Craig is a butter action. It's like the python of the rifle world, because if you ever operated a Craig, It is an incredibly smooth stroke with regard to open and closure on the gun. And it is a very comfortable weapon to operate. It is in 3040 Craig. Again, it's the Craig Jorgensen design, but it is the Craig rifle that is known by many. A lot of people had him in the carvings or whacked him down for sporting purposes, sadly enough. If you're lucky and you have the full length rifle, you do get a little better performance out of the round. But the carbine is very, very, very common. It was popular for a lot of people who wanted to brush gun here in Michigan and such. So depending on where you are, that's going to determine what kind of usually pops up in the odd collection. The other thing, British Lee Enfield parts, apexgunparts.com. If you are looking for British parts, there are two places to go first. Well, three, there's a third one. But Apex Gun Parts has a great inventory of Enfield's Fair Parts right now. In many cases, brand new old inventory still in the wrapper. Gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com is the other one. And I'm bringing this up because there are a bunch of Enfields that have been popping up that people have been acquiring. Last couple of estate sales, if I've been interested. $75 for number 4 mark 1 Enfield in very good excellent condition. It was an end of the war production rifle. I think it was probably rebuilt. Most British Enfields have been because the English couldn't throw anything away. But in this case the gun is flawless and had a little think in what was basically brand new arsenal wood. Old inventory again. problem ammunition, but right now preview part is on. If you go to AIM surplus, they've had it in. So when they do have it in, you buy brand new, boxer prime non-corrosive. And if you've got a grandpa gun that you inherited or a gun that you picked up and it's an infield, it's like the 6.5 Carcanos. I told you what happened and it did. All these Carcano surplus guns, everybody's excited about buying one before they tell you how you were stupid. They used to tell me, oh, I just bought one of those for her. Right? Seriously, guys. But since it's the only thing in the surplus market that's affordable, oh, the Carcano is wonderful. It's wonder bar. Oh, it's just great. Okay. Uh-huh. Man, I had to put up with a lot of abuse. It's like everything. We're way ahead of the rest of these people. But the Carcano is always fun to shoot. And 6.5 Carcano, very comfortable around, but a very, very lethal round. A lot of the airmen killed here in Michigan with Carcanos. And a lot of people were killed with them too, not here necessarily. But the important is that at AIMSurplus.com, AIMSurplus.com, AIMSurplus.com, they have the PTU 6.5 per count will come in. Those are making them as if it's a soft point or the ball, both will work. And they're more serviceable, but most important, you're buying boxer, pined, reloadable ammo. You want to get into reloading the cart as quick as you can. And if you're going to do the 6.5 Carcano, then any 6.5 bullet that's within spec is going to work. So you don't have to use the military pencil bullets. And you'd be amazed at what some of these better matched projectiles in 6.5 works to say game getter rounds, what they'll do in a Carcano. They are devastating. And the accuracy is quite reasonable. Remember a lot of people are being pushed there, you don't get the carbine. So if they did get the carbine, they'll expect a greater range. If you bought a shorter barrel, you get no difference for different performance. It's just that simple. And again, the over, was it the, oh, eight millimeter Lavelle. I mentioned it an only go. That's also available at AIM. They do have it in stock. It'll probably hang around a little longer because it takes time for people to know that that's there. But if you do have an eight millimeter Lavelle, you'll want to pick up some ammunition and box your prime on corrosion. There's a way to go there. Next, magazine pouches. Now, I mentioned this yesterday because we're looking at the Axion Monocler with the light. And I noticed that they still have over at airsoftgi.com. www.airsoftgi.com. If you go over there, clearance and sales. They have a series of really well made, oh it's an airsoft place, that doesn't make any difference, they sell all kinds of stuff. If you go over there, they have for 99 cents a piece, a number of different utility pouches. One is a handcuff pouch, but it can be used for a lot of other things because of its shape. For 99 cents apiece, you can only get two of each one. You can only get two. They come in black and they do come in OD green. Now be careful because one or two of them in another color are not 99 cents. But if you look when you tag the item, And you bring it up, you know, you don't have a color option. Usually just black or green, but one has a coyote brown. I went with the OD green, and I continued every time I placed an order with Airsoft GI for the vests or anything else, or equipment that they have on sale, because I always go through the sales item. They have some AK47 double mag, or actually, what is it, two pocket, but I guess two mags per pocket, magazine pouches that are molly. For $5 a piece brand new, they have them in Coyote Brown and they have them in Odie Green. They're very serviceable. You'll recognize the company name that made them. And for the price, you end up with more AK mag pouches for your MOLLE gear. It's a great way to go. But these other, whenever you do an order there, these other pouches buy them. They're worth a hell of a lot more than $0.99 a piece. There's a baton pouch, there's a flashlight pouch, flash bang pouch, there's another couple of square pocket or utility pocket. I think one of them is a radio pouch. And all of these can be applied for other purposes. But the big thing is they're worth a hell of a lot more, 99 cents a piece, and to make up additional rigs or equipment or bolts for the system you have. There are rigid carrier type hold. They're not the softer material. They're rich, so they're very, very useful for keeping things safe. They've got more of a bump factor to them, which is really nice. And I have already purchased a bunch of them. I can only use two of each at a time, where I do more at 99 cents. But I keep ticking away, and those pouches go into the combat rigs that are part of the OD green kits for the 510 programs I do. If I keep just patiently collecting and I keep track of what I got, eventually everybody's going to have one of this, two of those, one of these, two of those, six of this, five of that, two of these, one of these, three of these. There we go. It's done. Works out just fine. Anyway, next on the list, I mentioned the 6.5 caracondos. I had a lot of people asking about these and messages that were sent. Well, what about these 6.5 caracondos? I will remind you again, and they do find kind of mention, oh, my god, it doesn't have a regular magazine. What did you say? Oh, my god, I'm going to say it in a magazine. Did you say it doesn't have a regular magazine? Well, that's true. It doesn't. It has a man-menture magazine, stripper magazine system. And because of that, without the six-round strippers, you know, slash kind of what you call a D clip, but they're stripper clips. You've always called them stripper clips. They're Mann-Lincher stripper clips. These Mann-Lincher D-clips stripper clip slash holders, there you go. Does that make it neutral for everybody for whatever 10 year? Every 10 years somebody's got to do something different. The advantage is if you have them, you can use your magazine well. If you do not have one of these retainers, which by the way, the ammunition used to come in them every round. You would have six rounds per, you would have 18 rounds per box, and you take that, put that right into your magazine pouch, your pocket, and you have so many pockets. And when you pulled out one of these clips, you would stick it in, you know, open the bolt, stick it in the top of the weapon, push it down. If you don't have that, the ammunition won't be retained in the magazine channel. because the spring that's in there is pushing up on the rounds, just like on the M1 Garand, you have this guide, you know, a force, a force lever that is pushing up energy to index the round every time the system operates. The difference is with the Carcano is there's a hole in the bottom of your magazine and when the last round is fired and loaded actually, typically the, the either brass or steel Cliff falls off the bottom. Well catch that if it's modern times as I've always argued because well, we're gonna get more But if you don't have it is a single shot rifle. It's that simple You can't there's nothing you can do to make it work. Otherwise, so Understand that when you're looking at the Carcano, it's like the Gewehr adh. They're the same way They use a man with your stripper the latest the later model. I think it was a C or D and They changed out so it ended up with a Mauser magazine. But the original 88s use a standard man-menture type clip. Again, the Steyr Straight Pull uses a man-menture type strip. The Lebels, I mentioned, have either a three or a five round. And there are different ones. Internal strip that is, again, designed for holding a round. It depends on which year. I can't recall if the birth of the air does or doesn't. And the reason I mention that is because a lot of you people have them. Many people, when they get a grandpa collection, usually end up with a lot of weapons that are from the turn of the other century. The last one, the 1900s, going back to the 1800s. And a lot of that equipment, the one that was sold, those weapons, are in the era where Mann-Lincher was leading the way. In a lot of categories, some weapons have all of the man-ledger features. Most only have one. And that's that stripper clip, which meant for speed loading. Remember, how quickly can you reload? I opened the boat. I grabbed my magazine ammunition. I stick it in the magazine. I shove it down until I hear it click. I close the boat and I'm shooting at the enemy again. Man-dude! I see. Well, that is very sophisticated. Yes, it is. So again, the Italians adopted it and stuck with it. Well, we did too. I mean, come on guys, we have a D-clip, it's not an amateur, but it's the same idea. We had the ammunition coming in D-cliffs. If you do not have a D-clip, your M1 Garand is a single shot rifle, is it not? Yes, it is. It is the one feature of the Garand that is a thing you have to have in the back of your head. that you are going to collect all the d-clips if at all possible and you are going to buy more if you're going to put brands in the inventory. We have bought millions and millions and millions and millions and millions of d-clips. Hell, we were making them in polymer now. We can make them in plastic or we can make them in sheet steel, but we can make them either way. So just a heads up on that. And we are almost to the top, not quite, but almost to the top. Another question answered here, a lot of the .45 ACP guns before the latest cycle with the Glock magazines, most of them are using the grease gun mag. The reason? Your government built a lot of grease gun mags. So many they lost count. And for years they were $2 apiece. Oh, for years they were $0.99 apiece or less. And because of that, a lot of the other carbine guns that are out there, they're in 45 ACP, either used the Thompson mag because it was reasonably cheap. Still not as cheap as a grease gun mag. Nobody had anything they built grease gun in on the grease gun. So when everybody was looking at marketing a 45 like the commandos or whatever, more often than not, depending on which model, they were using the grease gun mag because it was cheap. And even if they had to have a different type of magazine release fixture, it was inexpensive to modify a standard grease gun mag and cut another hole where it was needed or a notch to make it work. So typically, if you're wondering why that magazine Well, it's so beefy, okay big, okay the whole, it's because again that magazine channel was built for in many cases a grease gun mag. Now there are some guns like I mentioned the commando. There's one I think the Mark II, no Mark III. One of the Mark III's because there were there's more than one of the Mark III models out there. There's a 9mm 45 ACP, that's pretty well lit. I don't think they made a 9mm Largo. If they did, they had to use a bastard magazine for that. But when they did produce it, basically they had initially a proprietary mag that was made in the Dominican Republic that didn't go over well. So they almost as quickly realized their mistake and the mark trees, which kind of looked like a round tube Thompson. instead of a square tube, were built with Grease Gun magazine wells. As someone of the picture, somebody sent me, what is this? Well, it's a commando. There were a bunch of commando marks that were made. The mark four is a Thompson lookalike knockoff as close as could be. It's not a Thompson, but most people won't know the difference until they get right up on top of it. Even then, half the time, most people won't. But it is a pretty simple to use gun. The most common mistake made is not cleaning the bolt channel because the weapon in some of these cases, you've got to remember that was before the ban on open bolt semi-automatic guns. And the reason you don't see many people come off those guns is because they can't get any other ones. And if war were to kick in, A lot of those guns would be improved, let's put it that way, would be improved with only a little bit of work and they would be going, they would be a little more rapid fire than they are right now. That's why you don't see anybody coming off of them. It's like the old WASP. How many people remember the WASP 9 millimeter and 45s? They had on the back of the receiver, the guy ground right into the machine. Think! When you brought the weapon up and the receiver was right there in front of your eye for red letters, you know, red paint, you know, inlaid into the machining. Think. You might remember the gun because one of the other features that was on a percentage of them was the dial-up locking system so that if you didn't know the code for the gun, you couldn't shoot it. Unfortunately, my problem with that is if you bumped it, you also couldn't shoot it. You had to reset the dial-up. But it was one of the last open bolt semi-automatic guns available on the market. And if you had a .45, it could be converted into a 9mm in a matter of moments. It used again, handgun mags and grease gun mags. And it was a very successful design. Anybody who has them, they're not coming off them and they're never going to sell them. They'll be inheritance guns. Somebody, if you might be listening, don't tell me about it. I don't need to know. But it was one of those guns that again it is Improvable when the war kicks off and very simply Improvable so you don't want to tell anybody and you don't want to show anybody and when you have them just when the time comes Bring them out for the party and if you don't know how to do it Somebody will show you how once we go to war trust me and it won't take that long. You don't have to do it now Wait till later anyway We're at the top. We need to hear the music because we need to go it is time if everybody out there I Hope I'm here Am I hearing the music? Oh, I'm not hearing the music. I'm in trouble Well, I'll wait We may have some problems that always happens that can happen especially when we're up in this live here with Liberty Tree radio because we don't like our program As it is again, the third company, forgive me, I said three and I corrected myself. Sarco, Inc.com. For any other infield or other weapons parts, Sarco, Inc.com. And we are at the top. Should be here at the music here any moment now. Got west, all the way up here public. That's the new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Emperor is on the run. We're on the march. We'll get out of the way for now. We'll be back in an hour and evening until report for meanwhile. It's Wednesday, so guess who's next? Craig from Forbidden Knowledge. God bless. And again, he had some good news on his front. So we'll see if we wait a little bit, if we can get Craig back up and get him on air here. So it is time for her to acknowledge and hopefully that's Craig right there. We'll see. Okay. Can anybody hear me now? Yeah, we got you now, Craig. There we go. Hi there. Sorry. I called in and then I couldn't unmute. unmute the microphone so they just wasn't accepting the prop, the command. So anyway, we're here now. It is Wednesday, June 16 of 2021. This is Craig. You're listening to Forbid Knowledge now. Sorry, I had a little trouble getting on. I had to hang up and call again, basically, is what I had to do, Ed. Got some things to talk about tonight. And let me get this. I'm trying to get this. I want to do what I want to do here. Okay, last minute panicking. Okay, no shows. I'm still not scheduled with any shows until DragonCon at the end of the summer and then Knob Creek at the beginning of fall. So if those two things happen, we'll be doing shows then, but until the end, probably won't be doing any shows. Let's see, a couple of news items. One of them, I'm gonna get into this a little bit later. I wanna cover a thing about radiation problems here first. I have... completed a federal lawsuit. And my regular viewers have were following this and I'll give you the full results of that and everything that I did and did wrong and did well and so on and the outcome of the lawsuit because there is no gag order. I will get into that here in a bit. First, I want to go over briefly about because a lot of fear mongering on the internet right now regarding nuclear power plant in China called and I don't know if I can pronounce this right. Taiwan maybe is how I said, I don't know. I haven't really listened to the news so I don't have heard how people are pronouncing this and I refuse to watch these fear-mongering videos, but Taiwan nuclear power plant in China, South East China, Hong Kong is the nearest city, nearest major city that might be affected. Give you an idea about where I'm talking about. Anyway, there's there over a few days ago. There was a report CNN started off by fear mongering and they let me see if I can find headlines here. All dangerous is it there's hundreds of videos already about this on YouTube and they're all fear mongering because frankly nothing has happened. There's been no radiation release. So bottom line is no you don't have to worry about this. No you don't need a survey meter. No you don't need a Geiger counter. No you don't need potassium iodate. It's a very modern plant. It has two reactors at this particular plant. By very modern, they've only been online for two and three years respectively. So this is a very safe plant. Would not expect anything bad to happen even if they melted down. You probably wouldn't get any major problems with anybody getting radiated. So there's nothing you should worry about. So it's a plant that had an issue. And basically what it sounds like, now this is a more modern plant. I don't know the details of the particular plant, but it's a more modern plant. The fuel assemblies come in zirconium clad fuel assemblies and they're inserted from above with cranes. And sometimes they're small defects. And it sounds like what's happening here with a xenon gas and some other type of noble gas that was apparently detected. possibly one of the fuel assemblies had a crack in it in the zirconium plating. So it's not anything you have to worry about. This is a fairly common problem with this type of fuel assembly. So this is nothing to worry about. There's something like 10,000 fuel assemblies or something in this, or needs to take their two plants. The plant didn't even shut down and continued operating and I don't know the details right now. The latest from China is, and of course we'll deny anyway, China guarantees safety of the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant. Well, when something like this happens, the trolls are restless and they're all over the place. And basically, I tell them, here's the best answer to that. Well, China's lying, they lied about the Wuhan flu and blah, blah, blah, they always lie, they always lie. Well, tell me how China is going to lie to millions of Geiger counters worldwide. Tell me your amazing science behind that because I'd love to hear that. So no, they aren't going to be able to lie about this if there was a problem. And even if there was a problem, again, this is a very modern plant. It's going to be completely contained or more mostly completely, just like Fukushima. They had containment vessels. Chernobyl blew its top and they had no containment vessel. It was designed without one. It was an old Soviet style plant and they don't even make those anymore. They've been found to be very dangerous, obviously. Fukushima released only one-tenth of what Chernobyl did. And even though they had three meltdowns. Three reactors so this Chinese plant is again. It's very modern plant. We're gonna have all the best safety features It's a modern advanced plant even if they melt down there You're not going to see a huge problem and no not everybody in Hong Kong is going to die You got to understand this the people are it's all just fear among everything you see here Reading some of the headlines for these videos you'll see what I'm talking about us to probe Possible reports a possible leak at Chinese nuclear power plant also on our cover-up Amid reports of radiological threats, suppliers says Chinese nuclear power plant operating safely. US assessing leak at nuclear power plant. And they put leak in quotes. See, because there has been no leak yet. Any gases that were detected were still within the confines of the plant. Nothing escaped the plant. At least nobody's ever said anything contrary. And again, there's the kong kong, depending on the direction of the wind blowing. Hong Kong would be one of the first to know about it and they have very sensitive detectors. Any country with a nuclear power plant has a very extremely, just like I think it was Sweden was the first to detect Chernobyl, even though the Soviets were lying about it, but they just can't hide it. It's going to be showing up if there was any problem issue. There is no issue, not yet, and I don't expect there ever to be. And no, nobody's going to die basically from this if it does melt down. Chinese, Taishan nuclear power plant, how dangerous was the radiation to be found out now? Nuclear power plants sealed despite safety concerns. On and on you won't find any, hardly any, other than, you see that's the thing, when we have, you'll see hundreds of videos and news articles about the quote, problem, end quote. But you won't see all the videos or explanations or articles saying, well no, we don't have a problem here and here's why. No, that doesn't bring page views, that doesn't bring hits to your website, and it doesn't bring revenue via donation. So no, that's the kind of story you won't see reported. Instead, they'll twist it to say, oh, they must be lying to you. Oh no, again, millions of value counters around the world aren't going to lie for China about this. Yeah, China gets demonized. And of course China demonized the last couple months. China has been demonized in Japan real bad for supposedly wanting to release something that they do on a regular routine basis, but use it as racist propaganda to keep their agenda going to demonize Japan for some things that happened during World War II that just can't seem to let it go. Them and South Korea, both. Racist propaganda towards Japan. For things that they do on a routine basis all the time, yes, release tritiated water into their respective waterways. That's what they do. That's what all nuclear power plants do, including here in the US. And yes, there's full reports available as well on that. You can look up at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's website. You can look up the full reports. For any nuclear power plant near you, you can look up the full results of any nuclear power plant near you that has released tritium into the atmosphere. Usually it's into a waterway. And you can find those reports for public scrutiny on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's website. Full public record folks. Same with China and every other country in the world, including the one in Japan who wants to release the water. After storing it for 10 years, well they didn't have to, but because of the ignorant fear mongers on the internet, they felt they had to be doing something, so they stored it in tanks. And they should have been just releasing it all off. That's why they should have been happening. Okay, so that's I guess probably that's about it for that topic. There's no there's no problem in a Chinese nuclear. Oh, they had a problem. It's a minor problem in a lot of a lot of nuclear power plants have the problem, but maybe because it was China, they gave gathered more news. I'm not sure. But you can go and look on YouTube and find out find hundreds of videos about on that topic. And even though there's no leak in here, okay, there's another one you can look up. China nuclear power plant, Hong Kong leader says radiation levels normal. the AFP news agency, the Associated Free Press, I'm not sure. So there are some reports showing the other side, so to speak. So far, and that's coming from Hong Kong. Hong Kong is, I don't know, is it the prime minister or is it the president? I'm not sure what it is, it's the lady. I'm not sure what Hong Kong's head of government is. So look all that up online if you want. No, you don't have to start taking potassium iodide. There's no reason to. Even if it melts down, you do not want to be taking potassium iodide on a regular basis. You can start messing up your thyroid. So don't do that. Okay, I'll get into now what's happened last week. It happened last week, but it was this week? I guess it was last week. It happened a few days ago. It must have happened now. I don't even know anymore. As a lot of you know, back in 2016 is when this started, a traffic stop where basically they stole my van and refused to give it back. And so, the statute of limitations would have run out in two years. So, anyway, within two years I filed a federal lawsuit because they took my van and refused to give it back, which is without imminent domain. I mean, if they're going to take it, they have to compensate for me. And they're refusing to compensate for me. They just pulled out and stole it and said, you can't have it back. So I filed a federal lawsuit in 2018. And here, two and a half years later, we now have a conclusion to it finally. It would have went to trial, I think, this year if it went to trial, but we settled it in mediation. Basically, the synopsis of the, for those of you who don't remember or don't know of a new listener of the program, and you're welcome to call in too if you want, because I can be asking for people to put input in this if you'd like. The basis for the lawsuit, I picked something out that I knew I could win. There's lots of things I could have put in this lawsuit, but I tried to stick to a fairly narrow range of a topic that I figured I could have a best chance of winning. I didn't want to go through a whole federal lawsuit process that took two and a half years in this case and not come out to have a win. Now, although I had a win, some of you may not think it was much of a win. We'll get into that. So basically I stole my van. They were requiring four pieces of four four terms to be shown to them in order to For me to get my van back One of them was and this was posted right on the wall of the impound yard when I try to get my van back must have a Proof of ownership. Well, I had well, let me get listed four things first If I can I'm just going off of memory here because I don't have this information in front of me a proof of ownership driver's license if I wanted to drive it away, proof of insurance if I wanted to drive it away, and the fourth one was, can't remember what the fourth one is, four conditions that would have been met in order for me to get my van back. Well, I had proof of ownership. It was in the van. I had, I just bought the van about a month before. I had the previous owner's certificate of title, Of course, that's not true, not title. We know that. It's just a certificate file, but this is what everybody calls a title. From Michigan, it was titled in Michigan previously. It's a title in Michigan. This title was signed over by the previous owner. With that, he also gave me a release, a lien towards the vehicle, which went well. We're calling it a vehicle here temporarily, but we all know that a vehicle is actually defined in the law as a device used in interstate commerce for public transport for profit or higher. That's the definition of vehicle when you look it up in the code. So anyway, those two documents, I also had a bill of sale from that same owner that previously owned it. So I go over and put in my name. And I had, let's see, what was the, I have another piece of documentation with it. Anyway, I had at least those three things with me. And yet they claim I didn't own the vehicle. So it wasn't even registered with the state. Now the state where I got stopped was in Hamilton County, Ohio, and it was actually in the city of Cincinnati. I was just about ready, I was only one mile from the border crossing over the bridge going into Kentucky. And they stopped me and they basically stole my van. And then when I tried to get it back, they refused to get it back. So file for a lawsuit and federal lawsuits always take years, folks. You don't ever see unless they're so egregious lawyers come together and say, yeah, yeah, we screwed up. Let's get this settled right now. Unless something like that happens, it's completely, it's going to be a multi-year process. In fact, my process could have easily taken at least another year, but based on the part I'm going to start bringing up here in a minute. So the lawsuit was filed in 2018. It was in the late summer of 2018. So it's been almost three years now. It's been very close to three years. Basically nothing happens for the first year virtually. Then the Coronavirus slowed things down all during that process. They switched over completely to telephone conferencing, which was fine. For this, for this, what they call a mediation, they had to zoom, do a zoom thing, and I've never done a zoom before. Luckily, I was able to get a location of a friend who helped me get on zoom and figure out how to do it, although I had no video. I had audio. I had to accept what I could get because I couldn't figure out how to do the video part. We all tried and we couldn't figure out how to get on. on to Zoom, just the video and audio, because I was on audio only. The other four, five attorneys there. Every time I face these people, there's multiple attorneys too. It's just me because I filed it myself. I didn't hire anybody. It probably would have cost me a good $20,000 probably to file this lawsuit, I would guess. It would have been an expensive proposition. I just don't have that kind of money. So I decided to try to do it myself, do the best I can. That's why I picked a portion of this topic that I had most likely chance to win. Because one of my goals coming out of this, one of my main goals coming out of this, was to have it on the record of a successful federal lawsuit. that any time any cop came and looked up my name on their computer, you know, they go to their car and they look up your name and I wanted to make sure that something like that showed up on there because maybe they'll want to find a customer that's more willing to pay up real quick, you see. In other words, this one's going to fight you. This one's not one to be messed with. This one's going to cost you more than you can fleece him for, so maybe you ought to might want to go and find another customer. That was one of the main goals of this lawsuit to begin with. And I've accomplished that goal. We'll see how effective it is. But I have accomplished that part of my goal with this lawsuit. I did win also in other aspects too. So the, let's see, after, at one point during the Coronavirus, they actually canceled, I'm sorry, that's not the right word. And the lawyer, their attorneys tried to dismiss it because I wasn't getting any mail either. And I missed a couple of deadlines for responding. Because they keep sending you all this documentation, you've got to respond to it. And I have to do it myself. And so because of this, I started getting general delivery because I was living on some property that construction property, but I started getting things general delivery. They didn't like that much, but they had to. You can still do general delivery, by the way. It's still in postal regulations, so you can get general delivery. You see, because part of this, the base part of this lawsuit, I guess I need to go over the lawsuit here. The main thrust of this lawsuit, I got to make sure I don't run out of time. I got plenty of time, though. The main thrust of this lawsuit was the fact that in trying to get my van back, I went to because I was stuck in Cincinnati, Ohio, Hamilton County. I went to the Bureau of Ohio Motor Vehicles because they're saying that I don't know that they have to get this title in my name. They call it a title, but it's a certificate title. And I had to get it in my name. And so, well, okay, I don't think I can do that, but let's go try. So I went to the Ohio BMD. as soon as they opened up and basically, virtually every state, you can look and you can check out your state and you're going to see similar themes with the forms in your state that basically you have to fill out on your form, you have to fill in your Social Security number which I don't have, you have to fill in the address which I also didn't have. I didn't have an address. I didn't have an official address. Now most people who buy a vehicle like that and they don't have an address, they'll just lie on the floor. They'll just put their mother's address down or friends or some other address. They'll just put any address they could think of to get the job done. But as you notice in your state, in every state, basically says the same thing, you are providing this information under the penalty of perjury. This is where I knew I could get them. A catch-22 position that they can't get out. I knew that I would win the suit. There's no question I would win the suit. There's almost... They've created their own problem by doing that. So I can't fill out the form with an address. They will not retake the form without an address. And since I have to sign under the penalty of perjury, this is something that they couldn't even be done in my case. So I couldn't fill out the form and I went to... I went back and basically, in order to get this back, because this all partly also stems from the fact that I don't have a driver's license. That's the reason they basically kidnapped me. I didn't have a driver's license. I can't get a driver's license without a social security number. They have a driver's license. They didn't have any of the documentation they wanted, but it had proof that the vehicle was mine, that the car or the van was mine. I should call it my van. That's what I really should be calling it, not the vehicle. I spent the night in jail, but anyway, I forgot how to start this whole process. They made it impossible for me to obtain my car my van back without lying on the form now You can't be compelled to lie In order to follow the law or in this case a statute So there's a catch-22 position for them a definite win in court. I knew that so that's the portion I picked now I would love somebody to have show me documentation of somebody that actually has one in federal court on the no drivers license issue because I'd love to fight them on that too, but I have not seen evidence that such a lawsuit exists. If you know otherwise, please send that information to me, forbiddenknowledge.yahoo.com. Forbiddenknowledge.yahoo.com. Because if I could get that, we could make some precedent-setting cases. This case is also precedent-setting in a way, and we're gonna get into that. Now, the, okay, so. I couldn't get my van back. They basically refused to give me my van back. They said, nope, it's my van. It's our van now. Well, okay, you're going to compensate me for that because that's a public taking. Constitution allows me a right to property also. You're not allowing to be on this property and you decided to steal it from me without just compensation. Both constitutional violations. So that's the main portion that I sued them on. I also sued the county. Well, actually I sued the Sheriff's deputy who stopped me. He was the one who initiated the stop. And when I go to these meetings, in fact, there's one tomorrow, and I don't think I'll be able to make it. It's just too far away from me. I've gone to these meetings, these law men meetings. If any of you are into the law, and you may have similar groups in your area that meet on a, generally it's a monthly basis. Generally they'll meet in a restaurant, a back room of a restaurant or something of this nature. They'll be there for two or three hours talking about things, their cases. things about taxes they're fighting, things about statutes and things in the law that maybe aren't common knowledge to people. And this is the type of meeting I would get some information from and sometimes bad information, I gotta tell you. Sometimes these people can be debunked right then and there in front of them and they don't like that, but I wanna know the truth. I don't want to know some supposed magic bullet that some wahoo on the internet who is selling a $10,000 package for a silver bullet is selling you to be able to become free. I don't buy into those things. I may have fallen for some of those things long past, but they all seem to be scams to me. To know I need to see evidence something works before I try to employ it. Well, anyway, somebody at one of those meetings said, all you have to do is sue the cop. And that brings, that starts a whole ball rolling to where everybody, now he basically draws in everybody else above him. His bosses, the county, all their lawyers get involved as whole. That's the advice, that's part of the bad advice I took because I only sued the cop as far as the county goes. I sued the state of Ohio, but I also sued the cop. Bill's the only two I sued, although I did put in the suit, and this is pretty common wordage, verbiage in a lawsuit, federal lawsuit, when there's other parties that you may want to introduce later. And they're basically a John Doe kind of clause where you're saying, and others. You're saying, in this case, the cop's name was Greg Morgan. And I can say his name on the air because he's the defending cop and he was sued in federal court. And you would say, and others unknown at this time. So you always kind of put in that in there so that you'll you can subpoena and get more information through discovery get more information on other people that may be involved because at the time there were three cops involved in the search not only Greg Morgan but two other cops came and they're in searching my van and damaging things and destroying things by the way and a matter of $100 cash that was missing was all added to the suit all the damage and all the things that were missing and the stolen money that was all added to it So that was the first thing that I probably shouldn't have taken that advice from from one of these meetings. I should have, from what I'm finding out later now when it's all over with, I should have listed individually each person, we'll go ahead and intentionally call them a person, I should have sued each person at the impound yard as I stand up to the counter to try to get my van back. I should have at least noted the day, well I did have noted the day and time that I went there, so they could have looked up through the logs who was on duty at that time. But what I should have done to make this more effective, the lawsuit, because they basically dismissed the cops portion of it for the most part. Because although I included constitutional violations, the courts seem to think that well, Greg Morgan didn't he didn't violate my rights the county violated my rights And I was under the understanding that the county would be drawn into this and that was my mistake So that's one mistake I made I'm trying to tell you the mistakes I made too So if you want to get into something like this need to pay attention attention to detail now if I had it hired an attorney an attorney that really wanted to work for me and not just milk milk me for money the attorney would have Would have found that would have picked that out and would have done that right for me So, I mean, it would have been helpful to have a attorney. And if I could afford attorney, I probably would have, but I can't. And I'm going to be going probably through more lawsuits in the future, and so I'm going to have to learn to do this myself. That's kind of the way I figured I had to do it. So live and learn kind of thing, right? So I then went to the people who were standing at the counter refusing to give me my van back were people I should have, through discovery, found out who they were and added their names through an amended complaint in the lawsuit. And then I would have had a bigger case against the county. And the county, well, then they would have to try to draw in, because they violated my rights, they would try to have to draw in their bosses, why do you have such a dumb policy? Why can't we accept this documentation that he proved that it was his? But yet the policy of the county doesn't allow us to recognize that. Okay, so let me see. I kind of keep this in some kind of order so it's making sense to you. So that was the two main things in the complaint is basically in a nutshell, they stole my van refuse to give it back, making it and made it impossible for me to obtain a certificate of title because it required me to lie in the form. It required me to commit perjury in order to own property in the state of Ohio. Seems real obvious. That's why I sued on that basis and then the part about constitutional violation of rights from Greg Morgan the cops stopped me that part was kind of this puts Dismissed if you will because it wasn't as valid for him is what they were saying So I didn't win on that portion of it. Okay, so now So we have a situation now where? Ohio and the Constitution allows us to write the property, right? Well, they have not given me a right to own that property. They have refused any lawful or legal method. My lawful method was to have the bill of sale. That's my lawful method of owning property. I took possession of it and I had a release of lien, a signed certificate of title, and a bill of sale. That's proof of ownership in my opinion. I owned that van. And well, I proved in court that I did. What I ended up having to do here's how I find because the van I got the van back and I used it up until about a month ago when I got a little action with it Which so now it's maybe in a junk yard. I don't know where it is now But I got the van back through deception in a way not really deception But what I had here's what I had to do to get my van back I had to call a friend of mine to come to Cincinnati to basically buy the van from me. I made out a bill of sale to him. Well, actually what we did was we took the certificate of title and all the paperwork I had and gave it to him. And then I signed a bill of sale to him showing that I transfer ownership to the van to him. And then because he is part of the social security cult, or the club, whatever you want to call it, he had a social security number, he was able to go down to the BMV and get a quote, proper, end quote, title, which means a certificate of title, granting ownership over to the state is what you do when you sign the documentation, when you go to the BMB, or your more vehicles, or Department of More Vehicles, whatever it's called in your state, you are going and you are telling the state, well, actually, I can't handle this, I need you to own this, partly own this for me because I'm just incompetent and I need you on the title as well. So just give me a receipt, which is a certificate of title, that we did this, and then that means I have partial control over it. I can do what I want with it, except all the while now. Because it's your car, I have to get proof of insurance. I have to get a driver's license in order to drive that state-owned vehicle. That's what you got there when you went down to the BMD to do that. You now own a state-owned vehicle. That's why they can control everything. That's why you have to get a driver's license to be in their vehicle. That's why you have to have insurance when you're in their vehicle. That's why you have to follow all the rules of the road when you're in their vehicle because it's their vehicle. They make the rules. You have no freedoms there. You signed it over. You signed away your rights. And guess what? They didn't steal your rights. You signed it over because you have the right to contract according to the Constitution. And you contracted to the state to do that. You gave up your rights willingly. Maybe not knowingly. Maybe not so willingly, but it's hard to work in our society today when the deceptions all around us make it very hard to live your life in freedom because really there is no freedom anymore. It comes down to it. What happened to the land of the free and the home of the brave? It's become the land of the fee and home of the slave. That's what it's become. Okay, so let me where do I know how to go with this next? So It goes to they tried to dismiss it once but because of the corny virus I basically wrote to the judge and said hey, I haven't been receiving notices the corny virus a Circumstance which is kind of beyond my control and they allowed it to go back so they actually dismissed it at one time I passed the date by a couple weeks, but I wrote a letter and Made a pleading with the judge a motion to continue to get the case back on the docket. They did they did do that Remember this is all pro se so I'm doing flying at this line. I did file one federal lawsuit more than 10 years ago, probably about 15 years ago. And I had some help with that one to start, but it wasn't something that I was able to finish on my own because I just didn't have the money to continue with it. So I basically had to drop that. Okay, so then we go to, so now my friend comes and basically buys a thing from me, the van, which then becomes a vehicle. Then he gets it in all the paperwork in his name and he goes down there with me and he picks it up and drives it away With me with me there and then we go down the street to a parking lot down the street and we I get it and he goes back in his car and he goes home So that's how I had to get my van back kind of kind of by deception Because now in this America here, we can't own property. They literally made it impossible for your own property. So So anyway, then for the next almost three years, I'm using my van. And until about a month ago when I wrecked it, I used it all the way up until then. Now, as I said, the mistake I made about not introducing the person standing behind the counter, that would have made this settlement much more in my favor, and monetarily it would have made much more. benefit in my favor. The, let's see, so it goes through all this process, it goes through discovery, it goes through what they call, oh boy, what's the other word, where they quiz you and give you the third degree, the third degree as in Freemasonry, right? The third degree, what do they call that? Deposition, that was fun. I had to go to Cincinnati for that. to sit in front of three lawyers, three there in the room and then one on Zoom, sit in front of three lawyers trying to trip me up. And I wasn't being tripped up. In fact, right off the bat, they started asking questions that was unrelated to the case. And I basically said, I'm not going to be sitting here answering questions that are totally unrelated to the case. If you think you're going to get me to answer these questions, you get a judge to compel me to answer these questions, then we'll go from there. In the meantime, I'm going to have to leave. And they toned down the questions. They kept coming back. They kept trying to do it. And that's the type of thing you yell, objection in a court. And I was making sure they knew that I knew what they were trying to do. They're trying to bring in all sorts of other crap. that was totally unrelated to the case. And trying to get me up on whatever they could. Trying to get me to be nervous. It was fun too because I had the mask on. So it's an easy way to play their game of poker basically. It's gonna be kind of hard to see your poker face when you've got masks on, right? So we had the deposition that lasted about three hours sitting in front of these four attorneys trying to trip me up. I wasn't having any of it. And nothing came out of it and then I'm sure they created a dictionary sized document for it, but I have not seen it. So the deposition, that was about, I don't know, about six months ago or so. And, but I should have done, again, my mistake is under discovery, I should have quizzed the county, should have subpoenaed the records to find out who was on duty at the time. Every time I encountered somebody at the counter who refused to give my van back. That's what I should have done, which I didn't because then I would have won the case against that portion of the case against the county, the Hamilton County. So, after I see what I got 15 minutes ago, yes, I'm really good. So anyway, going through all that process, it comes to mediation. Now mediation, for those of you who don't know, is basically, that's where you set a lot of court. But it's one of the places you can set a lot of court. That's like the last stop before you go to court. Basically, the judges usually want to see, this is a federal case, remember, it's not a county or any of the type of case. This is a federal case. The federal judge wants to see the two sides sit down together because I literally had not talked to their attorneys. other than in deposition where they're trying to trip me up. I literally not talk to them. No other really letters written back for it. Basically, I did write a letter of concurrence. See, before this whole process starts, one thing you should do before you file a lawsuit is to write a letter of concurrence to all the parties involved saying basically, hey, you've done me wrong. Let's try to settle this, otherwise I'm going to file a lawsuit. And they weren't willing to do anything there. either the motor vehicles, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles or the county, they refused to do it. In fact, the county was refusing my letters, my certified letters. Completely refusing them, cutting them back. So, okay, that means you want to be sued. And so I did. So, and it also took me a long time, by the way, you have to serve notice on all these people. It took me a long time to find the cop. Every step of the way I was pushed back, they would not give me any information. I basically had to hire a private detective. to find the cop and to sue him. Because people were telling me, oh no, he's retired. He's no longer with us, blah, blah, blah, all this kind of stuff. So they'll give you the runaround any chance they get. They refused to give me the police report when I tried to get it, when they stole the van. Because that would have had the names of the other cops that were there searching my van that destroyed and lost things, which could have been added to the lawsuit as well. But in any event, So we, let's see, where was I? I backed up a little bit there. Okay, mediation. Mediation is an attempt to try to settle out of court. And so it was scheduled and it came about last week. This was by Zoom this time, the first time I've ever done Zoom, as I said. And without the video portion of it, I guess it was also in my favor because all they had was audio on me. They didn't have a video. I saw everybody else, but they couldn't see me. I bet they all thought it was unintentionally, but no, it doesn't seem like I did anything. Wrong on my side, but who knows this first time I reuse zoom During the mediation had a representative from the state of Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles now interestingly enough The Bureau of Motor Vehicles in the state of Ohio did not have an attorney present through this whole process not through discovery nowhere essentially had no defense anyway, so I guess I could see well might as well not waste money on attorney on this one because We definitely lost this case no matter what happens, but it turns out You can't sue for monetary damages against the Bureau of Motor Vehicles for this instance. That's what everybody was telling me. You can't get monetary damages out of the state of Ohio's Bureau of Motor Vehicles Department of Public Safety. I wasn't sure why, and I'm still not sure why the state, but they said that there is no monetary damages. That's a given. So I couldn't get any monetary damages out, so what I did get out of them is a change of policy. Basically now in the state of Ohio, thanks to me, it hasn't occurred yet, but in the coming months, the state of Ohio by court order is going to be required to come up with a policy, a procedure for someone to say that's homeless, can go in and own property via the state of Ohio that doesn't have an address or that doesn't have a valid address that they want. Now, some other states, I got looking into a little bit, some other states actually allow you to go to a homeless advocate. If you have this problem, probably none of you do, but if you have this problem, you can go to a homeless advocacy group and ask some questions, or go to a homeless shelter and start asking questions there. They generally will have people that know, can find out the answer for you. Sometimes you might be able to use the address of their homeless shelter as an address you can put on the floor. Or maybe that of a church or some other business or some other place that allows you to do such but you need to check with that. You need to find that out and you need also see what the wording is on your form. In Ohio they weren't having any of it. You can't use a post office box either. It wasn't a valid address. They wouldn't accept it. I can't get a post office box anyway. Because you have to have an address to get a post office box. That's essentially the bottom line. You have to have an address. So they made it impossible but now part of the settlement was through mediation As I said, I did win the case. The only part of the process, sorry about the horns, but I'm sitting in my van, obviously. Part of the process, the mediation process, is now we're going to require the state of Ohio to come up with a way for somebody that doesn't have an address that they considered valid in the past to actually own that vehicle. That's part of the settlement now. So it's a win for anybody else who... also gets in this situation where they run into this bureaucracy of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles in Ohio to own their own property without having to lie on the form with committing perjury and doing so. So that's the second win for me. See, again, the two parts of the win for me are the fact that now when they look my name up, they're going to see immediately on the computer. Warning, Will Robinson, warning. This one's gonna cost us more money than we get out of them, so better let that one go, maybe. I mean, depends. I mean, if I committed a murder or something canyous, then I'm sure that's not gonna work. If something simple like a traffic stop, I think maybe that's going to be my potential shield, and that's one of the main goals I had. Now, also, the other part of the win is the state of Ohio now has to come up with a policy regarding that form so that somebody else doesn't run into the same problem. They should have done that anyway. Should have done it immediately as soon as they found out they had a problem. But no, they waited another three years until a court basically ordered them to do it. Like some Yahoo suing them in front of a court, like me. So that's the other part of the win. Now, the loss, if you want to consider the loss, here's the next part of it. I also have a monetary damage from the Ohio, Hamilton County. There's also a monetary damage there, which from whatever thing I've been hearing probably because I didn't list the proper people in the lawsuit that I probably might have walked away with nothing. That's one of the reasons I did settle in this case because I got the two other things that I wanted. Plus a monetary damage of only $2,000. I'm not under gag order. I can reveal everything. Basically the amount of monetary damage from the state of, from the county of Hamilton was $2,000. But here's the catch. And this is part that some of you may think of as being a loss. Now remember, up until this time, I've been doing all of my own money. I've been doing all this on my own. The filing lawsuit, I think, was $450. And then all the other leg work and paperwork and gas money and everything else is out of my pocket. So the $2,000 was part of the mediation where I said, well, I'm out of this much out of pocket. But here's the problem since I'm not in the social security cult or in other words, I don't have a social security number In order to collect this money from what I'm told I haven't received paperwork yet But they're supposed to issue me a check within 10 days or something with the court order But accompanying that will be a w-9 form on IRS w-9 I think that's what they told me was which requires guess what a social security number And I knew this would be a problem from the start. I knew it was getting into it. That's why the monetary damages part wasn't that big of a deal to me. Because I thought there's a possibility I might not be able to collect a single penny anyway. I kind of assumed this from the start. Because our court systems are not designed for you to live in freedom. They're designed to take your money. That's what they're designed for. Make sure you don't become an escaped slave. That's what the courts are there for. They're really there not for the people. They're there to protect their system, their bureaucracy. So anyway, I was awarded $2,000, which I probably can't collect. That's why a lot of you might think, well, gee, that wasn't much of a win. Well, again, I had three out of three of my goals awarded to me. Not nearly as much money as I was hoping you'd be awarded to me, but it doesn't matter if I can't collect any of it anyway, right? And which I probably can't. Now there may be another way I'd love somebody to call in or write to me and tell me if there's a way I can do this without the Social Security number because I kind of figure that if it's a W anything it's going to require a Social Security number or a tax ID number or something of that nature. Now it's going to have to be something in my name so I don't think if I could just sign it over to a let's say a homeless advocacy group or something like that or some... Something of that nature, I would definitely do that. But again, I don't know that I can do that via W-9. I think as soon as I get the form in my hands and requires a social security number, it's all going to be all null and void. In other words, they're probably not going to have to pay the $2,000. It's what's going to end up in the end. There'll be a justice check sitting there for a year or two or whatever the check expires and that's done. They just write it back into their funds. So that part of it I did not win. That part of it was in most people's eyes that would appear to be a loss. But again, two out of three things that I wanted. Actually three out of things that I wanted. monetary damage, the fact that now maybe they'll leave me alone, and the fact that the BMV now has to come up with a policy, I want all three of those. It's just I may not be able to collect the $2,000. I may not be able to get $2,000 in cash in my pocket because of the W9 form or the IRS. If anybody knows the solution to that, or if there's a way I can sign it over to some other... I'd love to sign it over to, like say, the Polliform Jury Association, something of that nature. That'd probably be my first choice right there. the fully informed jury association. That's probably what I would sign it over if I could. Or some other charity, something of that nature. If I can't collect it myself, if there's a way to do that, please let me know. Forbid knowledge at yahoo.com. Or call in. We only have a few minutes left of the show though, so you probably won't be able to get in any time and tell me. But you're welcome to call in and try or discuss anything. Because that's, basically, now I'll go all the way through everything with that. I just have now, I'm just going to have to wait until the next violation of my rights. and just continue to sue them in court because I don't want to put up with this crap anymore. I've had enough of it and now I'm showing them that I'm one that's going to fight back. I'm a slave that fights back and I get away with it. And that's something they don't like. And everybody needs to be proactive in that. Instead of just letting them trample over your rights, you gotta do something about it. But again, if you've joined that social security cult, then there's not a lot you can do as far as the... the trampling of rights because you signed away your rights when you got that number. Yes, you have the right to contract. Constitutionally, they did not take your rights, you gave them away. You signed them away because of your right to contract. You had the right to sign away your rights and you did. So you better like it because that's what you did. Okay, we only have a few more minutes left here. That covers the whole situation in a nutshell. You're welcome to call in if you want in the last few minutes and talk about it a little bit. That's going to be completely over with now. And I'll have to let you know what happens to the money if I am able to get it somehow. But again, it wasn't really about the money to me. It would have been a lot more money had I been able to bring those other two into court, the other two people that were sitting at the counter, and I tried to get my van back because you bring them into court, And then they bring them more into court and that is a definite violation. Then I have a specific party, specific person to point to instead of a cop, a specific party to point to, these are the ones that refuse to give me my van back. Because it wasn't the cop that refused to give my van back. He was the one that stole it. But the other ones were the ones that refused to give it back. That's why I should have included them. But what would have happened is I would have had to start the discovery process over again. and then go through deposition with them. It would have added a whole other year at least to that lawsuit. And I really don't like doing these things. Some of you may like this stuff, and people that go to these meetings that I was telling you about earlier, they love this sort of stuff. I hate it. I hate to have them answering those things. I was a procrastinator. I hated answering in my way to the last minute any time I could because I just hated to do it. I didn't like, I don't like this stuff. I'd rather they just left me alone. let me live in freedom, but no, they're not going to let me do that. They don't want to escape slaves, so they're going to make your life hard any time they can. So I really did want to process it in, and I got three of the things that I wanted. It wasn't as much as I wanted. I was hoping it could be $100,000 win or something like that, but even then, I probably wouldn't be able to collect the money. So I'd have to do something other than it. So then, it's not, but it still shows up at the record that I win. and it can show the amount of settlement as well. It's part of the public record now. Even though it is a mediated settlement instead of going to trial. That would have been good going to trial if you can imagine it sitting in front of the night and I demanded a jury trial as well. So they were under a quandary there, pop up on the stand and me up on the stand and basically the state and this cop sold my van and refused to give it back, this homeless guy. Of all people they refused to give back their van to a homeless guy, give their property back. Put them out on the street. How do you think that would have went over for the jury? It probably would have went over pretty big monetary damages, and I'm quite sure I would have won that as well. But I was just getting... I'm still tired of the process. I really don't like doing this. I really don't want to have to do this, but I will have to continue doing it because I'm not going to let them trample over my rights anymore. So any part I can get... And again, anybody has information, and I know somebody who's start screening the name Rod Class, well he's another one of them that is basically one of those charlatans who get on the internet and ask for thousands of dollars for their package, their freedom package, and a lot of others do the same thing. I've encountered them over my years of studying this, and these are the people you probably want to stay away from. But you might want to search out your local meeting like I was telling you about, the one that's happening. here in Michigan tomorrow that I probably won't be able to attend. You might want to check those out and start attending something, start listening to some of the people. But keep in mind that they may have it wrong as well. Nobody has it all, right? They all know everything. And attorneys, they're really wards of the state. We know this. They don't really work for you. They work for the state. They only know procedure. They don't really know law. They only know statutes. on the way to procedure. That's what they do. They know virtually nothing else. So an attorney may or may not help you in this case. You really have to scope out the attorney. But somebody you know, especially somebody that you know is sort of a friendship thing, that would be the right attorney to hire. If you can handle it, if you can afford it. But think about it. I would have spent 10, 20, $30,000 on attorney's fees. And then a way to come back with $2,000? That's obviously a poor return. But the attorney would have had me suing the right people, and maybe I could have gone in the end with a $100,000 settlement or more, and then, and also maybe made big news in the press, because none of this was covered in the press. That's a shame, because this could have been a really big news item. County steals Van from homeless man, refuses to give it back. That's... That would be big news in any press. If any honest press, that would be big news, but not a single bench of the press. I did have a YouTube video that got over 100,000 hits over this. A pretty big, probably one of my, about my fourth largest video on my channel for BID TV, for BID's fellow 2Ds, no space for BID TV. And so now I probably have to make a YouTube video also explaining the outcome of this for the people, the 100,000 or plus people who saw that video. and want to know the outcome of it. But anyway, I don't have that done yet. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with that, folks. I don't know. I want to get this out. So now you won't have to hear me talking about this issue necessarily unless we come up with some resolution of what happened to the money. Again, if anybody wants to write to me with suggestions on how to do this via the W9 that they are insisting on, forbiddenknowledge.yahoo.com. So my show is over with this is Craig you've been listening to forbidden knowledge. It has been live if you were listening on June the 16th of 2021. Hopefully next week I can be back with you again. So until next time, so long everyone. is part of our Constitution. You know, the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt, to protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless, people that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones, we're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. What do we do? Politicians. Look, okay, just get any blunt objects together, alright? If you get corners, bash them in the head, that seems to work out. Keep together, stay sharp and follow me. I 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 flavored 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. This number traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic in each God-given right. And pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled, each God given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, is this still the land of the free? And good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is the evening intelligence report I'm our currently. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, north, west, southeast, and east. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4MG.com, Liberty Tree Radio on satellite, and we are on AM and FM micro stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet, Hallmark, Golden Spike Technologies, East and West of the Mississippi along with Alaska. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is 8.05 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, 16th of June. It is the 13th year of open, obvious and in-your-face, Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K. 2021 Old Earth Calendar, 2021 Battle for the Republic Dance of Swords, and Hillary's going to be arrested any day now. This is it. Here we go. All right. If I'd been holding my breath since they started that BS, I would be long, long, long, long, long dead. I mean, that was four and a half years ago. Wow, it didn't take long and Hillary the Hutt is still happy camping with you know, Bill. Oh my goodness. Oh, wow Bill Anyway, it is weapons Wednesday There's a bunch of other unique weapons that are starting to pop out but in a caliber It's kind of funny because what's been going on with the ammo great ideas unfortunately the inventory of munitions can't keep up with interest perhaps in what are some really unique 9 millimeter carvings. I kind of mentioned those in the 2R block a little bit. But there's a bunch of new stuff out there, especially in the AK venue. The Wasser 9s that are out there are 9 millimeters that actually will either use a proprietary magazine or they are using an insert and they do a Glock mag, which is really great. You keep both of those handy. But the big thing is that the other rifles that are coming out are pretty much Glock-centric. They're, well, forgive me, the one, actually, this is a Breeder Model 92 magazine American pattern. So this will vary depending upon which production company and when they were made, or essentially what they figure is the best choice for inexpensive magazines to keep the customer happy. And right now the Glock seems to be that real solution because there's tons of Glock plastic mags all over the place and they're cheap. So if you had a carbine, that's a great saddle, you know, pistol and saddle rifle combination. A Glock with a Glock carbine magazine that would be one mag fits all, which is just exactly the kind of thing you want for a saddle combination. Cowboy guns, basically. or cavalry, like cavalry. Anyway, with regard to those, some people are asking what about spare parts. I don't know with each of these rifles how deep the parts inventory is, but if the company is listed, when you get the gun, an example on this is new, if you have a catalog and it has parts inventory listings, My recommendation, because of where we are in time, and I usually recommend this simply because now will be the best time to get the parts where they're actually in stock, is to buy a firing pin extractor and where possible an ejector. The AK member has, well, it's an interesting one. I don't know if they did that with the nines. It has a fixed rail ejector, but if it doesn't, then we need to find out. However, the neat thing about these is that, again, For what they are price-wise, they're not a bad little rifle to promise ammunition. It's more expensive to run a 9mm AK than it is to run a 760 by 39 AK. So therein lies the rub. Now, one of the advantages of a pistol-caliber carbines, as we mentioned a million times here, is felt recoil. If you're trying to give a weapon to a person that's limited in capacity, young person or old person, individual that might not need a full rifle caliber simply because it's not their job but if they need something to defend themselves the 9mm is sufficient or any of the other pistol calibers for that matter. But in this day and age, unfortunately with the price A of a rifle and B of the ammunition, magazines being the third issue, with Glock mags are cheap, the AK mags are reasonably priced not necessarily all cheap but cheaper than the average bear. It's still cheaper to run 7.62x39 if the person can handle it. However, if the world were to come back to any semblance of intelligence and pistol ammunition were back where it belonged, then the nine would make a great deal of sense or greater sense for a majority of the people that are out there or for the mission, depending upon the mission of the individual. For a medic or support personnel, the 9mm is more than enough. drivers, radio operators, etc. Now the big and single argument is, wait in the magazines and you know, loaded magazines with ammo and of course how much ammo can you carry. I've always liked the idea with the 9mm guns, you obviously like the M1 Kirby, you can carry tons and tons of magazines and have lots and lots and lots of pew pew pew going on over a period of time before you run out. That's always kind of nice if what you got is all you got and you were smart and loaded upon the magazines. The Glock mags are relatively cheap for 45, 40 caliber, 90 millimeters, so now it's just a matter of flavor choice. What have you chosen to go with to complete the program, so to speak? What is your personal choice, best choice, based upon other criteria with regard to the other weapons you own and how you want to integrate things? Again, if you've got a Glock, especially if you have Glocks. It makes sense to go with a card being that takes Glock magazines. But then if you do that, well, I got all the mags I need. No, you don't. You better be buying lots more mags. You just add another weapon that might be freestanding and separate from you. Just because it takes the same mag doesn't mean it's going to be sitting right there in front of you with a type belt. You may have to give it to somebody else and let them use it. Well, you better have magazines to share. Which means you need to double up on the capacity of the number of magazines you have available at any given point, if not more. And keep buying them anyway. Glock mags are reasonably priced. Pick them up when you see the best price, keep stacking them, racking them on the wall. It's that simple. Now, another thing, although the 9mm are probably the most sensible, there are some .45 ACP guns, comparable manufacturer, not the same designed necessarily, but there are different names attached and the different sub-methods they've used for their 9mm or .45 conversions are different, slightly. But enough that they're proprietary for the original mags that they build the guns for and then of course they have the adapter, then they work with the Glock no matter what. 45 ACP, more expensive, but I would point out something about 45, unlike 9mm 40 calibre. If you need more 45 ACP cases, all you do is chop down bent or damaged 30 calibre cases, for instance, Sub-6 2x51 NATO or 30 out of 6. Any of the standard military rifle based cases can be cut down to the length of a 45 ACP reamed out and properly retuned as 45 ACP routes. But you don't take a good full caliber boxer prime round and chop it up. The way you're doing this and why you're doing this is because you can take bent, broken, spent cases or blank rounds and convert them into 45 ACP rounds to keep your pistols running. This is where scrap, where some manufacturing time is already involved, scrap can be turned into gold. It can be turned into priceless ammunition to keep your weapons running. Most important here is, again, remember, some form of bullet needs to be in the solution buffer. Best way to do that is, again, lead the cast 45 ACP bullets. With your carbines, it's not going to be a problem. But if you're smart, you're obviously going to use a little bit of a gas check. Or you can copper wash, copper plate. Copper plating can be done at home. You don't have to have a factory to do it. And there's all kinds of videos on the subject out there to help you to understand what I'm talking about on YouTube. So go there and look at plating. You'll see how things can be done. And you'll work it out from there. Mm. Mm. Dark cocoa chocolate with more sweetener. Mm. Mm. Just got a bunch of this over at one of the distress stories. That's the way he bought them out. 75% off and it's a dove. So we opened one. Basically, for those of you who don't know, years ago, they, if you didn't have the sea ration candy, which by the way was designed for Vietnam, well, not just Vietnam, but extreme hot weather, the candy didn't melt. Anybody knows the chocolate didn't melt? That's because of the formula, okay? Obviously. But before that, in special warfare rations, you had cocoa chocolate, in a candy, which is baked like baker's chocolate. But it was unsweetened. You were purely getting, again, you got the flavor, but you didn't get the sugar high flavor direction. You got the flavor and you got caffeine, which was all reason for the chocolate. So again, not only that, but remember other things you get from the chocolate too, calming your nerves. So anyway, a little piece about the physo. Oh, a couple of dominoes. It was typically what they did. At least they're hollowed out on the inside. They're actually made by the Dove Candy, you know, Dove Line. Not soap, Candy, okay? But very high quality and especially for trade, barter, or in this case, like I said, if I were to carry it as part of a field ration. This, some cheese, you know, like squeezed cheese, a couple of combat crackers or, you know, wheat-based ground course crackers, and a piece of whatever kind of meat in a retort pouch. You're eating like a king in the field. In fact, all the flavor and taste just jumps at you. Just a little heads up there. That was a side-track. Anyway, I just couldn't help it. It was here. It was looking at me. It forced me. I had to make a nibble. I couldn't help myself. Anyway, it is one of the other things that most is taking into consideration is what have you already got in your inventory when it comes to moving towards any of these light carvings. And in some cases, maybe it's just your first time to go in that direction with anything in that caliber, I understand. Except if you do, if you're buying it, you'll see a light carvings. I know a lot of people like Smiths. The M&Ps are on top of the list with a lot of people. I don't know that anybody makes a carbine that uses the Smith mag. Now I could be wrong because I could be, I don't think Kel-Tec uses their own, but not always. They make a few exceptions. But there is one company that does have a 9 millimeter carbine that takes the 40 and or 9 millimeter Smith and Wesson M&P magazines. Now off the top of my head I'd have to dig to find it again, but I know it jumped out at me because again like the Beretta Montalini tube mags, they are out there and it is a very common magazine, a military mag as a matter of fact, but the Glocks really kind of are the king of the cheapness and volume if you're looking for mags right now. Okay, like the 45 magazine used to be years ago. Or the Grease-Sten mags I could talk about earlier or the Stens. Anyway, on that note, the other one's Sten. Yes, a lot of your older 9mm carbines, almost 100%, there was a reason you could buy Sten gun mags for 27 cents a piece, then they went to 50, then they went to $1. They were still giveaway for decades. I mean literally giveaway, gimme. So if you were building a new 9mm gun from scratch, you're looking for a way to cut corners even more, well why are you going to bother inventing something that the British already came up with a good idea, copied the British MP40 magazine. And because of that, a lot of the guns you're going to run into are typically going to use a skin 9mm if they are a 9mm carbine from say earlier than the 90s. And even into the 90s, a lot of guns were being built with a skin mag because you'll get them for a dollar or two apiece. Now the one thing I will point out about both the skin and the Grease Gun magazine. A loader is preferred. Yeah, you can push everything down to where you want it to. They're a double stack mag. But remember that that little speed loader in place of your thumbnail and your thumb and your meat and the muscle and the bone that's going to be trying to push and do all that energy on the side of that case, that little speed loader makes a big difference. There's a bunch of different models that will fit both the skin and the Grease Gun mag, plus many, many, many other mags. But there were loaders specifically made for both magazines. And you do want to invest in them. They're aftermarket models that are available, and you do want to invest in them. That is something I highly recommend. If you've got a grandpa gun right now, a couple of the guys showed me some of the stuff that they got from their uncle's collection as far as stuff that he left them. They're not going to get rid of it, but it's Again, all of it is proprietary, well, not really proprietary, but generic grease gun or 9mm in nature. Some automatic guns, but did not see any speed loaders, forgive me, or compression loaders for the magazines. So, like I told them, you're going to have to seek out a Aftermarket from any number of different companies in fact most of places do carry a copy if you go to apex gun parts dot-com apex gun parts dot-com go to oh Gun parts corp.com should have them also gun parts corp.com and Sarco and Sarco of course will probably if you look it up will probably have more than one model I know they have the Aftermarket copy for the in nine millimeter for the stem which is a steel, pop metal steel body with a bronze or brass plated in steel, but plated. I don't know why they did that with some of them. It's solid bronze with others. But the ring and detent system is designed and built in soft metal. I understand it's actually handling brass. But these are relatively cheap. I've seen them for as little as $6, $7 a piece. If they're surplus, they're worth more because it's horrible, aren't you? And now they're classic Coke God that word pops in there every once in a while. But what you want to do is, again, pick one up and make sure you put it in a pouch with the magazines. Typically, a lot of your submachine gun mag pouch assemblies have a little small pouch there. You wondered what it was for. Well, try putting that speed loader on it. You'd be amazed. Now the other thing is some were set up to carry oil bottles, or the idea is you carry more than one of these stick mag pouches anyway for three, five, or six mags. The little pouch off to the side, the little pouch built up front would hold the magazine loader, but it also would hold an oil can, same specification size-wise. So when you carry more than one mag pouch, obviously one of those is going to be the oiler, the other one's going to be the sleeve loader. It's that simple. Another thing about the carbines in this nature, my rule, my rule across the board, and there's a reason, explain in a second, is ball ammo, ball ammo, ball ammo, ball ammo. That's the baseline for everything. And there are two things taken into consideration. Number one, many of the aftermarket or non-standard company carbines like this were a custom production line. And while they did well, every once in a while there's one that is a finicky or gun. You don't want to do a whole lot of tuning because you can't get a whole lot of spare parts for these guns. They are out there, but you've got to search for them. And when the war kicks off, they're not simply going to be at your fingertips. So we want to minimize changing anything on the weapon. The basic rule is if you want to see the weapon function reliably, Standard ball ammo, and if you're using it specifically in the carbine, a little hot would be fine. If you're going to reload, you can actually go up the scale a little bit. But if you at least load the standard, it should without any problem function. But there's no possibility of any hang up during the feed process with a soft point or a hollow point cart-mount load in a pistol bullet in a carbine like this. Most of these weapons like the commandos, the Jesurks, the Jenkins, even the little Lindas. Those are also kind of popular again because they're pumped up. Somebody got a bunch of them overseas. In fact, there was a video on YouTube where the guy was showing a whole line of these that he picked up. Some military or somebody had them overseas, brought them back into the country. He does pistols all the time. Again, the weapon is best suited to the baseline munition. And that means jacketed ball ammunition. That would be your first choice. Again, if you were going to fire otherwise something, I would not go hollow point. I would go soft point. And if at all possible with a Plastine conical, there's all kinds of different loads that are out there. But when you start looking at specialized rounds, you look at special prices, especially with the ammunition situation the way it is now. So, if you got one of these grandpa guns or dad guns, ball ammunition pretty much crossed the board. If it's .380, bummer. I mean, I don't know where to get .380. You're going to have to, if you already got some, you're great. If you got some of the gun, don't pull the trigger on it, other than just to, you know, maybe test fire it once or twice. But other than that, you can't afford to use the ammo right now because you can't replace it. And it's sad because 380 is not a bad round. It's just that it never caught up from the last big sellout. And so this big sellout, it went pretty quick. But a lot of reasons, one of the reasons a lot of you guys knew that would happen, he had 380s. Now, another thing, everybody always asks, can I put optics on these guns? Well, most of the time, no. But I will say this, some of the commandos, way before you guys had Picatinny rails, The commandos actually accommodated a number of different fixtures. The Weber fixtures were one that they were actually were pioneering at the time. So you have a couple of screw points on some of these guns right on the top of the receiver, a traditional kind of bore system right into the receiver metal itself. And you have, if you've got the complete gun, if you're lucky and they did separate it from the box and the spare parts, hopefully they put that Weber rail right on top of the gun. If they did, then yes, you have the ability to mount most modern optics. And in fact, a lot of the new stuff like the red, blue, green, you know, dot sites or whatever else you want to go with, ghost sites, you know, there's a couple of different companies out there that make all kinds of unique stuff. Yeah, all of it would go on these little carbines if it has that fixture. Now, otherwise, again, these were supposed to be like the basic World War II submachine gun, although there are carbines, semi-auto, were supposed to be plain Jane, crude and rude. And for the most part, for what they're intended to do, and by the very nature of them being a pistol, pistol caliber, I'm not worried about putting any optics on the roof. I don't see any reason for it. Personally, that's a flavor choice thing. I ain't going to complain if you already did, that's your weapon and you figured out how to make it work. But for the most part, it's a short to intermediate range cartridge to begin with. It's usually chambered to the gun. And because of that, your sighting system should be sufficient, especially if you're working on trying to practice a three round semi-auto burst, kind of like simulating the three to five round full auto burst. And you get pretty good at it. And again, you'd be amazed at how well you can do an iron sights at intermediate and short range. So just a heads up on that. That's why I'm not really pressed on the idea of adding a whole bunch of whiz bangs, space age, well, post space age technology to the weapon. They're great for close quarter security, down a trench, down a hallway, down a stairwell. close overrun where you've got a whole bunch of bad guys and you got a large capacity magazine and you can just simply hose down the target. That's what they were meant for. Excuse me. The other half of this, with regard to the considerations for the weapon systems themselves as far as optics go, is again, Again, if you wanted to go scopes, you could, but you really don't need, nor can you use that high-power scope for a 9mm route. In addition to that, again, sometimes you're looking at the gun costing far less than the scope you might think you want to put on the top of the thing. It really isn't. It's an economic issue there. Of course, if that's all it really cost you, it would say the optic. And you probably wouldn't care. In other words, I didn't pay anything for the gun, but I'm going to spend some money on putting some glass or a red dot or something up above. It's a matter of your school. And for the most part, I still would recommend you save me of those types of technologies for other more sophisticated weapons with a little greater range. that are already set up and pretty much oriented to the optics that you're thinking to adopt. They already have a rail system, or they already have the rail system worked out. A lot of the guns, like the Commando Mark III, the earlier models to the middle of the production had no accommodation for any kind of optics at all. Then there's a little window there where they put, like I said, a weaver or the option to put a fan rail on it. And then they stopped that. It cost money. The same is true with some of the Bushmaster pistol caliber carbines that came out about the time as the Bushmaster rifle. There aren't very many of those out there, but it's amazing how many I've seen pop up in the last two or three years with estates. In fact, I saw one in an estate sale about three weeks ago. And I explained to him, I said, well, that's a gun you really don't want to think about selling until you go find out what it's worth. Because look at the serial number on the gun. You might notice there's only four digits. Granted, in many cases with these rifles, there may be only four digit serial numbers. The reason, like with the WASP, is that they also use an alphabet identifier for the group in production. So they would start, say, the alpha group, alpha two, or alpha B. and then they would put so many numbers, start from zero, you know, zero, zero, zero, zero, one until they got to whatever the end of the production run was, then they'd stop and they'd go to a new prefix. And then they'd have serial numbers start all over again. They weren't the same serial number, but it saved them having to, I don't know, I think it was the machinery and maybe the counter stamp or whatever they had, it was like, well, it's limited, what can we do? We'll make this kind of serial number up and everybody will be confused. All right. So, again, the other thing that, oh, well, that's true. A lot of these weapons do have sister handgun counterparts. No, not like, you know, no stock, well, some do. A no stock version of the Thompson or a no stock version of the Commando Mark III or the Commando Mark IV, which is a Thompson, as it goes before it, Thompson look-alike. Instead, they actually did come up with a whole family of pistols. And sometimes, and sometimes, when you're looking at collections, you're going to find a gun that you're looking at it. You're trying to figure out who the hell is that. If you see any of the, if you look at the whole collection, pay attention first to the light car beams in the 9 millimeter 45 ACP, whatever. And then look at the name and then pay attention to those pistols. There are too many of them out there that are one of a kind. They are very collectible. There are people hunting for those. You may want it not because you're going to want the gun for personal use, but because you can easily pay for all of your purchases that day with a sale of one gun. So remember, it's like again with the commando series, which was, you know, picked up by three different companies. They did a way before high point, nine millimeter blowback gun that didn't look bad. I mean, it was way better or worse than the high point. A little clunkier, a little bigger, but the weapon itself is very comfortable to fire. One of our friends had three of them and he said, hey, try these out. They're like $98 a piece. And we fired them up, and this is way back in the late 70s, early 80s. And the guns functioned flawlessly. They were, again, an eight-round in-stack, just straight line, just like you see with the high points. If any of these are out there, and especially if the boxes are with them, and especially if the paperwork is with them, you can buy a lot of other guns with that gun. Or you can pay for the ammunition you needed to pick up for your AK this weekend. These are few and far between. There's a lot of them in Michigan. The big sales center was with the auto, you know, the contact was the auto companies. People in the plants, somebody in the plant saw one. Bob told Fred how to get hold of the carbine. And Bob found out he can get one of the pistols. Bob wanted one pistol, the other guy wanted three. And so these end up popping out in these estate sales or in private collection sales all the time. But in different configurations, depending upon what year they were snagged, there's a gentleman that had one estate sale here that had dozens of unique things, all from the same window of time. And you could tell just about what year, what era, what window of time he was purchasing. With the boxes, with the paperwork, with spare magazines, sometimes six to eight, ten and then spare magazines. And yes, well worth the money. But a couple of those weapons were so unique that they literally would pay for everything else that was on the table. That it bought every, that one thing could buy. And as I pointed out to them, I said, you probably want to slide that off in the way and you need to go look at the market on that right now. And I don't do that always, but it's one of those things where if somebody got it, they wouldn't appreciate it. You know what I mean? In other words, they have no clue. And for the most part, I mean, I would, but it's like, it's a unique weapon. And it's one of those things kind of like a lot of the Winchester's. I love Winchester rifles. I think the action is phenomenal. I love the Marlin actions. Of course, you know, I love all kinds of things. But the Winchester is, there's just that mechanical feel to it that's perfect. And it's flawless. I've never had a Winchester jam or malfunction up. But there's a bunch of the Winchester's that are in unique Winchester calibers that you just aren't going to find ammunition for. And if you do, it's that cowboy ammo, and they want like five kinds of price or something that costs half as much as the regular 30-30 it could have been chambered in, but it wasn't because it was a unique rifle. It's better that somebody who is collecting that unique Winchester habit, where they'll take care of it, they'll maintain it, they'll awe it, they will sign ammunition maybe for it, or they already have it, they'll build it themselves. And in the process, you have the digits and the resources to go find something that is more useful for you. So that's the other half of the balance here, as I've always said, when it comes to the tough choice on inheritance weapons. With inheritance weapons, first policy is, well, did you love that family member? Are you looking for heritage in your family line? Well, these weapons are part of your heritage. So all of those should be kept. Now, if you do that, then you better start looking for spare parts, ammunition. You want to keep them running. You want to keep them clean. Do you know how to break them down? Do you know how to make them work? You better learn all of that. It's your responsibility. If you want that heritage thing to start going, you kick it in, well, then there's responsibility with it. So you need to work at that. And it's something that can, that's your first choice. Now, if you choose that these are weapons that Uncle Bob just collected, as I've mentioned many times, Then and we just had hanging around because he invested in them and he even told you that well It was time for the investment to pay off and if it's a unique pistol that just isn't useful I mean all weapons will work all I can make any gun work if you give it to me I will make it work and make it do it what I needed to do to get what I need from the enemy if I don't have big enough yet I Need to get something I'll use the gun I have or the weapon I have at a life's broadsword stone to take the weapon from my enemy But if the weapon isn't copacetic with the rest of the inventory, is rather pricey, and actually commands a good price, then it's most likely you should put it out into the market and keep the weapons that make more sense for your personal purposes, especially if you have a certain caliber, you got a inherited six of whatever it is that you wanted, which happens all the time. You just make sure now you've got pollsters, support your, you know, again, cleaning kits, magazines, everything else. Maybe it came with a package when you got it. Otherwise, mostly guns are for buying, not for selling. Well, there are some weapons that should be sold, or could be sold as needed, and everybody will be happy. Greater will be happy. You will be happy. Everybody comes out on top. That's a double plus good thing. That's where you want things to go. Next. I know we're getting close. Anyway, okay, very good. We're at the bottom of the hour, so I'm going to do this to Edward if I can catch him and get him to do this for me. We were hoping to play it during the two-hour block. We didn't get a chance. Things happen. But Blind Guardian, Curse My Name. That's the music request for tonight. Ideally, the red-headed girl, it's the Curse My Name cover there's a lady who is the primary singer female rather than male her a blind guardian or is a male band and a heavy metal band at that which you wouldn't know it know with most of their songs but if you can the cover version done by the lady it has more of it what has the same feel as the original piece a little more clarity I think so everybody could you know and follow the words so if we could mind guardian curse whichever one pops up first though, Edward, to save us time and resources, go ahead and throw the dart, pick out what makes sense, and we'll go with that one. Sounds fine by me. So Blind Guardian, curse my name. And as a matter of fact, don't forget, as weapons go, music is a weapon. So for all of you out there, you need your music mixed squared away. I still have stuff I gotta fix, but I have a library that goes on forever. Really have it. Not something in somebody else's internet collection halfway across the planet they can cut off in 15 seconds or less. Instead, you need to have it in hand, need to make hard copies, need to be ready to use it when the time comes and have it for the battle before you. We shall sing as we slay. So, blind guardian, curse my name. Anyway, next. With regards to pistols, there are, even as we speak, some new guns coming out. Now, again, some of them are, you know, they're really cool, but the first is, well, they're a 9mm. That's like an obtaining price. But eventually there will be some 9mm. It might be a little more reasonable. There is some right now, it sounds like, a little more reasonable. But mostly newer pistols are actually Next step, knockoffs of existing arms that are already there that are made by the same company. Both Steyr and Sig of course have always done basically racer versions of whatever guns, you know, they crank out a base model and then they start putting spoilers and air scoops and they jack up the rear end and put slicks on it. That's a car. Yeah, well the same is true with guns. And right now there are a few unique chubby stubbies or short things that have popped up on the list, but nothing that's really jumping out as being a wild god. And for that reason, one of the other things I can't stress enough is this is not the time for you to really dump and change out everything. You're settled with a certain system. The one thing, the reason you really don't necessarily want to change out right now, do you have the ammunition to spend in re-familiarization on another gun? You have that money. Okay, because remember you might have what is not the latest invoked pistol Oh, I don't have the Schmidt lap 406 and I just read a news article the Schmidt lap 406 It's the next thing since sliced pumpernickel. Oh, I've got to have the Schmidt lap. Well, wait a minute. Don't you have the Bob 416? Well, yeah, well, isn't it basically the same model? Well, no, it doesn't have the racing stripes in the foil and the It doesn't have the wind scoop up front. Oh, okay. Well, I'll tell you what. If you do pick up a new and very, very different weapon, you're going to have to work on muscle memory, sight alignment. The basics are always there, no matter what gun you pick up. And certainly you could learn quickly enough. But right now, you have a tremendous edge on your enemy. You shoot your weapon more often, most of you do, than pretty much all the military does. They have range time. You have unlimited range time based upon personal choice. A lot of you have already worked out where that weapon hits and how it functions. Now, if you do want another gun, there's nothing that says you can't buy another weapon on this planet because this is America, son. And guns are for buying, not for selling. But if it's to change out your complete system, I can't see doing that right now. Now one other consideration is that you have a team that you've linked up with and well we use shmidlaps. We don't use bobs. Okay, well, okay, go get a shmidlap, but don't get rid of bob. The bob gun works just fine. Po-po-boom-boom. And besides, it's always nice to have another gun stashed somewhere, isn't it? But you can pick up a Schmidlap or whatever the baseline model is and start collecting all the components for that and everything that you need for the long, long haul. It's just remember that you still have that down curve window in between where you're switching over to another platform. And right now it hurts. In other words, $1, $1, $1. You know that sound. That's when you pull the trigger. Well, let's just say, 78 cents, 78 cents, 78 cents, almost a dollar. Wait a minute, 78 cents, 78 cents, 78 cents, 74 dollars. If I fire four rounds, right? That's about right. It's close enough. So, if I, no matter what it is I want to shoot, mostly again in pistol, I don't have the resources, and I don't, shouldn't want to waste the time right now, when there are other things that I may have to adopt the eye and cross the T4. See how that works? So hopefully I'm helping you make a decision there. You got a good gun. It's a second line defense weapon anyway. Your first is your rifle or shotgun, whatever your primary weapon is. It's your primary weapon. Your longer range weapon is designed to offer both firepower and accuracy. Then beyond that, the pistolist gets you out of trouble so you can either get back to where you can clear a malfunction or it gets yourself to the next heavy weapon like the rifle you were carrying because maybe something happened to the gun that you were carrying. However, again, remember, the handgun is supposed to be the gun used to get you back to the rifle or back to a long weapon. Your enemy is from a warm dead corpse or allied, maybe from a warm dead corpse or because you have reserve weapons on hand. Take your pick. Whichever happens first. Another thing about almost every one of the new weapons is especially they seem to be smart about not coming up with another goofy magazine. Doesn't mean that it's a bad magazine, but proprietary mags are the norm for a lot of companies. However, most everybody right now has to be conservative. And the reason is not because of the guns nor even the gun prices. It has to do with magazine cost and ammunition cost. And because of that, they realize that they could price themselves right out of the market or never get into the market if they do something really goofy. So the good thing about designers right now is they're going to be relatively conservative. That's good for you when it comes to your parts inventory or when it comes to your spares, especially beginning with magazines. If they were smart and stayed or laid with a magazine that's in existence, Right off the bat, that's beneficial to any of you that are organizing your people or organizing your personal defense technology. So commonality of mags is always a good thing. More is always better. Remember with regard to logistics, more is always better. Anyway. We'll try this one more time because we barely have enough time. We may not even have time to get it in. Blind Guardian dash curse my name. We might still be able to get that in before the top. And again, for everybody out there, the attitude here is, well, you know what? We win, you lose, and people are going to expect payments. So we have a lot of work to do. First of all, we got a war fight. But when we're done, and even as we're winning, remember there's going to be a lot of situations where people are going to get hold of the buggers on the other side that caused all these problems in the first place. Go ahead, Collar, jump in. Hey, Mark. It's Fluffy. I just wanted, well, there is perhaps a minute to recommend a movie I saw recently. You know how most movies are so stupid about... The good guy picking up guns or ammunition from from the bad guys well, right not only have I seen that in a movie but the the protagonist also picked up body armor off of one of the bad guys and Used it effectively the actor seemed to have been receiving some training and the name of the movie is gunman And it stars, unfortunately, yeah, gunman, U-N-M-E-N. And it, I don't believe there's any nudity in it, but there is quite a lot of action. Unfortunately, it stars the arch-liberal Sean Penn, but in spite of that, it's quite good as an action movie. He not even except guns, ammunition, and body armor from bad guys he puts down. You know, I'm the first one to ever. Go ahead. Go ahead. Full penetration in other words typically head-on is how they calculate but remember you have grazing shots and You're still dropping energy no matter what it is you're wearing with regard to what's coming in So just you know keep that in mind a body armor is good Okay, if you can pull it off an enemy corpse Even if it's already got a hole in it, which maybe it does You still put it on because the other parts that are still good that might be the part that saves your high net Just that simple. It's only one little spot, 30 caliber or you know 5x6 or 40 caliber or 45 where there's maybe a hole and they doubt it's 45 caliber. So just a heads up on that one. Go ahead. I just wanted to let people know about a surprisingly accurate action movie that I did enjoy. Once again, the name is Gunman. starring Sean Penn, who I despise, but it was an indomible movie. Over. Excellent. And again, there's a bunch of different things that can be learned, but also avoided. Like I said, the James Bond movie, one of the reasons it was brought up about, well, picking up weapons. Also, you're my favorite is the idea of throwing guns down. And why would you do that? How is it? I don't have telepathy. If you point it at me, I'm going to have confidence you probably are pointing it at me because you could think you could shoot me. So I don't know if you're concepty or not. And at the very least, you know, the, you know, taking me out or taking somebody else out with the idea, maybe you should get out of the line of fire and, you know, take cover. It's probably going to happen. So if you're watching the, I think it was, oh, come on. Oh, the one with the mansion, God, with one of the later Bond movies and they're on a train. And he's firing his pistol and he runs out and he looks at it disgustingly and throws it off the train. He's on a platform with a bunch of heavy, heavy, um, Skyfall. Ah, I just had to step back and think about it. Skyfall. If you watch, he's on a moving train. Well, the other guy is shooting at him and he shoots back. And how does the guy know that he's out of ammunition? He isn't. He, other than the fact that, you know, he's taken cover, he could have reloaded. I... I'd act like I reloaded and then I'd retain my gun anyway. Why would I throw it away? I've got a holster. I'm not really exposed. I had enough time I could look at the gun shrugged like I was disgusted and throw it away. Well, that's plenty of time to put in the holster and secure it because I might need a close bludgeon club hard point later on. And trust me, that gun is tougher than your bones, right? So if I'm gonna pistol whip someone even with a plastic gun the plastic gun is still tougher I just may I may have to hold it differently to make sure it doesn't fall apart while I'm beating somebody with it It's just a mark one thing to remember. Go ahead call her jump in there Yeah, I know why he threw it away. It's because they were shooting a 380 no ammo Well No, no ammo, are you sure yeah, well, yeah, have you seen the price of 380? Yeah, right you couldn't buy couldn't afford anymore right well, yeah Poor miss poor mr. Bond the English government simply could not afford anymore ammunition for you. I'm sorry, sir. Yes The majesty will apologize later if you live yeah, that's not good. Well, he did get chatted. I saw the movie He did get chatted off the train. Yeah, we're near 15 Yeah, from an ally. Yeah, by an ally who couldn't fire a second shot even though the argument for using a sub-automatic gun is that you're able to follow up with a second shot really fast. So after she shot Bond out of the way, why didn't she shoot the bastard? Right? Exactly. She's a super shot. Yeah, she's a long-range super shot. Take the shot! Well, I'm gonna take a bunch of shots. How about, are you being charged by the bullet? Here's the other one. Switch over to full-automated pepper, the son of a bitch. Why not? The worst could have happened is you miss. Right? But no, it's like that one shot and it's your friend that you shoot. You know? Well, that's because they're always, you know, okay, I remember here's the other thing about the cliches of movies like this. Yeah, I'm cool. I'm the most ruthless whatever blah blah blah. I'm a super marksman. I'm the latest dike female. That's the super marksman, right? But I shoot like that and then all of a sudden I get angst and it's like no. You in fact you're pretty much in the slot five by five you're all focused your mission was to you got to shoot that guy so he doesn't get away with that information and You would keep shooting You wouldn't even be thinking you wouldn't be time to hesitate. Yep. I know that's a friendly But you know what let's make sure he doesn't die in vain. Let's get the bastard anyway See there's there's the problem and what they're doing is trying to put that into you that you're supposed to have this process of anksing going on during your crisis situation. That you're supposed to stop and hesitate and think and twiddle your thumbs and rotate thumbs between your bum hole in your mouth. You know left and then you're pulling one out of your mouth and stick it in your bum hole and the other one comes out of your bum hole and goes in your in your mouth. That's the way it's self-cleaning. But it's the idea that you're rotating thumbs in a situation where you should be focusing on the mission. No matter what it is, again, the basic rule, again, with contact is focus on the fight. Yes, you have a friendly who's wounded or you may have people that are injured. If you don't win the fight, you'll all be either injured or dead, and probably all dead because nobody's gonna want to take prisoners. So the enemy is the same way. I mean, we're actually showing that most of our people have the same attitude, so let's just figure it works tit for tat. So you fight and you keep up the fight. If you get hit and you get wounded, you stay in the fight. Remember that. Everybody contributes. Especially remember, here's the other thing I've been pointing out. Oh, I'm going to have a silencer. I don't want any silencers. They're only for very narrow and shallow environments. Otherwise, I want everybody's mother's uncle to know that there's a firefight going on here. Let me point something out. Why would I want a silencer if I'm a sentry? If you notice a lot of these movies, the sentry's got a silenced weapon. Why would the sentry need a silenced weapon? What is the purpose behind a sentry, people? So solve the alarm, right? Am I right? What's the best way to tell everybody they're here? What would be the best way? Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom Don't worry about full auto. Your little twitchy finger with adrenaline, you won't even, people won't be able to tell that it's semi-auto. Trust me on this. I've seen people dump magazines so fast in panic that, you know, and they didn't hit anything. But then again, I will tell you this, having talked to cops who have been in gun battles with bank robbers or with thieves on the street, that they would tell you the same thing. They'd fire three, four, five, six magazines, 15 rounds per mag. They can only remember the first two or three rounds and they couldn't remember dropping any of the mags and they could remember when they finally ceased fire and maybe had two or three rounds left in the last mag. Okay, so trust me, your sub-automatic gun is just fine. Everybody knows, are you going to run forward? No, you do not. No, you do not. No, you do not. But if you dump all of these ideas and you focus on fighting, And we focus on making sure we draw lots of attention. When we fight, we want the gun battle to be heard. And when it ebbs off, it's only because we've turned the volume down because we finished the job. That's how it should be wherever possible. I don't know where this panty-waist thing about noise came from. And it's really, it's fascinating. I'm looking at this in general. People have become total wusses with any kind of noise around them. Has anybody noticed this? Oh my God! Oh, oh, oh, it's crazy! Oh, shut up and sit over in the corner. And this came around, this started happening way before the coronavirus patty waste cycle came in. It's noisy. It's really noisy. It hurts me. Oh my God. Did it really hurt you? I know, but I feel so bad because it started me. It makes me concerned. Oh my God. Really? Well you're gonna really excite you're gonna be excited about when the other 40 guys behind me when they do this! Oh wow So I don't know I do know where it came from because this part of the propaganda It's part of the the silencing of the voice of the people I told you before guys sing as you slay Something you've talked about if you're if you're bash if you're not just bashful But if you're if you're just not able to sing as needed think about what that means how much anything would that conditioning come from? It's part of the process of the same patty-waste ridicule that comes from political correctness Wants you to think about that? Hmm. Anyway, we're very close. We're almost to the top here And again, I can we've got the one more time before we come up with the music axion Red, blue, green, rifle sights. We have them again available. Send me an email. I want to get an idea of how many people have interest, if you can. If you don't, you don't have to. But if you are interested in any number of these, then let me know. Same price that they were before as a way to support the network. There aren't very many, but I already secured 15 and I plan on trying to buy every last one they have and they go into our people's hands. Unfortunately, the tickle meter is going without me being there. Somebody else may buy them and they may be gone. So I'm going to be conservative, but I want to make sure that everybody is covered. I know one of our friends listening wants four, and I'll have those four set aside. In addition to that, anybody who wants quantity, let me know right away because I will turn right around and I will order immediately whatever it is that we need so that we secure it, because I've got to make sure we get it in hand. These are the Axion Red, Blue, Green, rifle sights. They have a really nice little package. They're very simple, very easy to use, quick to mount. They're a standard red dot type system. You can find them by doing a search for Axion red, blue, green rifle sights and they'll pop up a hundred pictures of the show up on Google. That'll be the fastest way for you to find it even though you may hate Google. And I do. So, as soon as I get an idea of how many more, then we're going to start probably tomorrow. And what I'll do is make the announcement on the air. I like the Axion Monocular. It would run the same price. We can do a parallel on that. There are more of those than there are of the red, blue, green sites. But I also don't want to create a confusion. So I'm trying to work out the math on that. We're going to come up with a, it'll be simple, it's not hard. We're going to come up with an only clature so that there's no confusion. If you want the red, blue, green, you'll just say red, blue, green. If you want the monocular, you say mono. I got mono! No, not yet, but as soon as you send us the donation, we'll send you, we'll send you mono. You mean a mono? No, monocular, yes, for the light. And other than that, nothing exciting about either one of them, they're very simple designs. We may have a self-contained Digital vehicle camera There may be a quantity of those I will say that that's something else we may be able to offer which makes a good helmet cam It can be used on a weapon. They are very small and these do have audio not just video So they're pretty cool little unit. I bought all of them. I will say that's what I bought I bought everyone they had as of keeping them for us But if I get more, we may offer that also. God bless our Republic. Get the new world order. Shout for Bill, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. And we are on the march, both day and night. Kill them all. God. We're going to take off for now, Ed's taking over, more LTR coming up, and we will be back for the easy or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or for the easy, or
