a teacher that I had. Now I only, I went through the seventh grade. I went through the seventh grade. I left home when I was 10 years old because I was hungry. I used to, this is true. I work in the summer and I go to school in the winter. But I had this one teacher, he was the principal of the Harrison School in Winstan, Indiana. To me, this was the greatest teacher, a real sage of my time, anyhow. He had such wisdom. And we were all reciting the Pledge of Allegiance one day. And he walked over, this little old teacher, Mr. Laswell was his name. Mr. Laswell, this is, um... He says, I've been listening to you boys and girls recite the Pledge of Allegiance all semester, and it seems as though it's becoming monotonous to you. If I may, may I recite it and try to explain to you the meaning of each word. I, me, an individual, a committee of one, pledge. dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity, allegiance, my love and my devotion to the flag, our standard, oh glory, a symbol of freedom. Wherever she waves, there's respect because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts freedom is everybody's job. United. That means that we have all come together. States. Individual communities that have united into 48 great states. 48 individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries yet united to a common purpose. And that's love for country. And to the Republic. Republic. A state in which sovereign power is invested in representative chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people. And it's from the people to the leaders. Not from the leaders to the people. For which it stands. One nation, one nation. Meaning, so blessed by God. Indivisible, incapable of being divided. With liberty, which is freedom. the right of power to live one's own life without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation. And justice, the principle, or qualities of dealing fairly with others. For all. Which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine. And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country and two words have been added to the pledge of allegiance under God. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer? And that would be eliminated from schools too. 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 said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. 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. You've taken Saint's number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be buried. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children? to live in fear and be a slave. O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. Or even now as a tyrant, Trample, each God-given right. We only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report I mark currently. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, north, northeast, and south. 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, CB 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 Colos, the Outline Two States, the territories and the clock. It is... 506 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 22nd of September. It is the 13th year of open Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a 2021 older calendar, 2021 Battle for the Republic, the Dance of Swords. And A blustery day. We have a classic late summer, early fall day with, let's see, warm in the morning, or at least last night to the wee hours of the morning. And then the weather shifted. We've got it coming out of the north, classic, right straight out of the north, off the upper part, the highlands of Michigan, the upper, lower peninsula. Rain, I would say we probably got about three inches of rain by over about eight, nine hour period. And again, my rain collector did a pretty good job, you know, coats ahead sitting outside. And even they were, you know, probably not completely exposed to the entire rain wave that took place. Not hard, just a constant, steady, pittery rain. kind of weather you should expect and why you carry your rain gear for tactical operations. It's why it really helps to carry those rain pants that most people don't think about and are in fact dirt cheap. It's kind of weird in that respect. You don't know about that. You know we've talked about supply and support here for quite some time and it's interesting that pants are outrageously priced in all categories except one. Rain pants. Now ponchos, upper smocks, in rain gear, outrageous. A lot of stuff is so crazy it's, you know, not even thinking about buying it. Nor do I mention it on the air for that reason because, well, you'll figure it out. It's that expensive and you figure you need it. That's your personal choice, not mine. And don't worry about that. But rain pants, OD green or even the Woodland Camo rain pants, the old two-piece sets. have been popping up for a dollar a piece so you can find them laying around they are out there and If you're gonna buy the poncho or you're gonna buy any other wet weather gear you know it's like some of them like the Turkish gear that came out actually did have the leggings and the arm covers and You know by the time you're done you're actually pretty well protected But it's still a poncho core system that they're using with that that Turkish reversible to camouflage It's a good pattern good system if you can if you can still find it It's one of those things the Turks brought in and the government obviously loves the idea that the Turks brought it in and they've kind of just smell fiddled out. Whatever's in is here and that's pretty much it. So anyway, Being Weapons Wednesday will remind you that there are some pretty decent magazine buys out there right now for the AR. And that's so much for the AK although there are some Croatian mags that came in and they're averaging about 750 to $8 a mag if you can find them right now They already of course even as they've come in the last two days Whatever's going on with the individual whatever's wrong with your mind first thing for the Pentagon we ain't taking shit again we're practicing for war this is America you don't have to like it like it or get the hell out This is our country! We're the first team for a Pentagon bug scout rep! And we don't take shit from us! What radio program do you do? What in the name of Stonewall Jackson are you doing? We're going to war! No more of this crap! We're taking it to the enemy! Get your back for yourself here, Colonel! We're going to tube! Edward! Okay, it sounds like we've got a problem that... Well, yee-haw. Yes, I know. Somebody's helping me here. Anyway... Anybody out there think that in any way shape or form is sensible? Or that whoever is doing that has anything squared away between their ears? Why don't you all think about that? That's a negative Ghost Rider. Over. Yeah. Copy that. Gator blade 3 5 9 Ereko Echo, Fox Drop, this is your Tango Fox Drop. We copy. So as it is, anyway... This last couple of days there have been a number of magazine deals and I'm going to stay focused on that because right now we're going to need a little bigger combat load. Some of you are pretty well organizing or outfitting smaller formations. And one of the things that you can do, don't forget, is bundle packages just like on the radio communications, radio especially, the Motorola's or any of the others. At this point in time, There have been a bunch of bundle packages that have shown up. I don't know where these came from, but if you remember them, OK Magazine. Remember OK Mags? If you were in the service, my favorite were Action Arms. We had a ton of Action Arms, 30 round AR-15, M16 Magazine. But OK showed up for a bit. OKAY. OKAY. And what's interesting is, not bad mags, nothing you're right home about, but they have been out there for a while, all a batch of them showing up again, look to be in very good to excellent condition. Don't know if it's a donut of destruction, you know, idiot sticks not paying attention and just shoveling stuff as quick out the back doors or buying new out the front. Or if this is con, these are contract mags that were slid sideways to a third party country, which happens a lot, could have gone to Turkey. Turkey's dumping a lot of stuff inside the United States because they're the ones Accepting and moving the stolen oil from Syria so those dirty whores can pretty much do anything they want the Turks Because of that stuff that otherwise wouldn't come in from any ally Any regular ally, you know people who you know, we told that you know had to bleed. Okay, like the Koreans They can't bring most of this stuff in or if they do it's very very restricted but with the Turks anything seems to go right now and these OK mags are kind of a benchmark and old American history of the air you know M16 family rifle. So if you do run into them they're good mags. Apparently one company has done the non-tilting followers not that I will say this. I probably shot up God knows how many of those AOK or OK mags and I never had one malfunction. Never had a problem with the follower. It's interesting that these newer followers certainly available that's great. I'd have been happy with the magazine just like the old action arms mags just give me the standard magazine. The original followers worked fine and I've dumped two, three, four thousand rounds in some cases with a clutch of magazines that we loaded up for range use and not exaggerating the other if you stick around for the end of range fire They don't want to repackage. In fact, they can't repackage and they can't recreate any ammunition that's open So guess what? You've got plenty of range fire time if you're willing to load the mags and amazingly enough Action arms literally that was the name of the company action arms and ok are ok mags Worked and functioned well. I never had a malfunction with them in the whole time that we operated it So anyway, if you see them they're worth it And of course they are metal mags not plastic Also, there were some questions as a bunch of center fire Items that are on sale right now in terms of add-ons and accoutrements for the AR for other weapons in terms of pickety rails, etc You might want to go and see what's left I know some of them are going fast, I think I snagged the tail end of some of the independent rails that they had set for mounting and whatever you want to mount them on. Actually, I want those, which is why I did order 10 sets. I want those because of the R&D we're doing with the optics right now. And since we're going to be adding some night vision equipment to it, the research, the R&D, I'm going to be also testing two things with these illuminators that we have. One of them is digital night vision and the other is conventional first gen. I'm going to buy a brand new zero hour unit and I'm buying two or three, depending on what kind of deal we can make here, of the digital binocular, you know, monocular collector binocular slash widescreen projection unit. Basically it's a camera system with filters off I know. However, here's why I'm doing this. The improved focus light technology allows for actual color range perception at night. I've already experimented this to the farthest I can go with optics and I'm very satisfied with these things. However, What I'd be curious about, and I want to find out real quick here, is how does the digital night vision register the image? Think about it. It's supposed to be working night vision IR collection, but is it going to cause a corruption in the collection system? Is it going to have a problem registering it? This is something you need to take into consideration if we're using these pieces of equipment and integrating them. And we do have quite a few digital units that people have picked up because they're cheap. It fills the gap. As we've said many times, a lot of guys can't afford the most expensive, but they don't necessarily need cutting-edge tactical if they're medical support. single communications or just, you know, rear area security groups and they're going to be operating in a local pod of some kind. Or you're keeping garrison equipment on standby tonight. You may hand out 10-20 pieces of equipment if you've got them and many people do now because the digit was so cheap. You then enhance that with other conventional green screen whatever generation is you know typically equal to or superior mostly superior when it comes to range if it's the you know third or fourth generation obviously but the digital may be more suited towards the Focused beam white light enhancement. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to actually set up what is a side rail mount for one of these monocular binocular systems and on the mount itself without actually just doing a simulated weapon. What I want to do is be able to screw down the rails, lock them into place and actually come up with a side mount system for or basically it'll be at the 9 o'clock or 10 o'clock mark on the left side of the rifle if you were holding it, it'd be the left side. And the idea behind this is to be able to set your eyes forward use the collector and take advantage of the range. The only other thing that I've had to do is break down and buy some of the screw on, or I'll pick any rail actually, but there also could just be screwed on small format flexible bipods. Now by the time we're done with this, really the center system could be anything. Could be a dragon off knockoff, could be a bolt action rifle, which by the way is what a lot of these High intensity illuminators have been attached to it with success and they're hunting coyotes at intermediate to long range with white light illuminators and whatever scope system they choose, not night vision. What would be interesting though is that with the digital, you could actually move back and forth between the night vision and white light collection. But what I said about corruption The question is if you have a white light illuminator out there then the system is going to have to override its infrared only Collection capability and I don't think it may it may not be able to do that. It may get basically a Norman coordinate may Fluzz out the screen and make gray out or it may just interrupt back and forth creating a visual static on the display because remember basically what you're looking at is a little television screen and the data coming from one half of the system or the other remember that mostly digital units can be used during the day without any complication whatsoever. Now some are auto enhanced so you don't have to hit a switch others are control specific so if you're using it for night vision you hit the night vision IR range and otherwise your daylight perspective standard long range or intermediate range optical collection. The idea is it works like a binocular or a rifle sight. And in this case, that's where I'm curious because if it's doing the automatic processing, it may have a tough time making a decision about which direction to work because of ambient darkness, not ambient light, but dominant darkness but a focused area of white light illumination that registers as if it were daylight, which is exactly what these illuminators do. The OD50, testing it a couple nights ago, we were experimenting with digital camera off to the side, and everything seemed normal, but I get a little fuzz in a few spots, and I'm not sure if that's just the quality of the, well, it's an older camera, pixel rating is lower. but it still should probably not have had any interference. So I'm going to go a little farther with this and one of the units that we're buying, one that is actually quite cheap, OpticsPlanet has, so does Sportsman's Guide, has an onboard camera. So the cool thing is, is we can actually record digitally or we'll record whatever the system sees and we'll be actually able to share this when we're done, which is kind of cool. So if it does what it's supposed to do and then we can find out if it'll do the same with a rifle sight, should be in pretty good shape. It's interesting because all of this technology is very affordable. There are a number of ways, the mean ways, that our site can easily use what is low-tech by other comparisons. You know, comparison of other equipment that obviously is out there and piled up in the system. that's reasonably inexpensive, but it will be devastating if it's used and we develop the techniques for use now in a wave or multipoint to focal point. In other words, multiple individuals projecting image to a target point. I mean, it literally is like you're in the spotlight. It's the only way to describe it, but I mentioned being in the spotlight with nowhere to turn. If a five-man fire team or a whole 10-man squad can properly employ this, you know, on, off, on, off, and you get used to actually practicing the technique, there's no place for the other, for the target to go. And it's kind of like an inversion of everything that they've all flapped their yap about or put propaganda up about for years with regard to its feudal resistance. You will be absorbed and we're all going to die and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. We all know how that works. So. As it stands, again, we'll give you the updates as we go, but now I'm just simply waiting for the material products that we need to, which I want them in zero hour. I do have some that have been up for not that long. The one digital unit, which I got for free, remember last year, is actually a pretty decent little unit, but it's got a few hours on it now because we've been experimenting with that in a separate process. So I'm going to start with zero count equipment, whatever testing was done at the production site, you know, afterwards when they build it and then before they box it. That's what's going to be on there clockwise. And then we're going to put some time on these things to see also how the light affects the unit. Because that's another thing we've got to do. We're going to have to really burn these things, like use them for, you know, several hours at night. And I'm probably going to hand them over to some of the tactical groups and let them experiment this weekend maybe. If everything goes well and we get them by Friday, we'll probably put them in the field Friday night. This Saturday we'll be running them on with a stopwatch. I'm actually going to be keeping track of this. And we're going to see if we can run these, but also see how it affects the collectors. And I think what I'm most concerned with is the green screen, because the green screen As we've pointed out many times, the illumination issue with regard to white light is always a problem. You're just burning the meter faster. You're just running the speedometer, the odometer, not speedometer, the odometer. You're running it out too quick. So we're definitely not going to go crazy about trying to see how we can confirm what we already know. Don Betcher explained time and time and time again on the air about do not focus on fires, do not focus on white light like headlights. streetlights, anything like that. You already know it's there. Avoid that. Car lights, car headlights, especially some of the new ones because there are a lot of new enhanced LED, just like the LED that we're using. The LEDs that we're testing. So that's not a good thing for your green screen because it's just going to run the speedometer up real high and turn the miles out, plus read that service hours up fast. We don't want to do that. We're not going to waste the money on that. But digital is a question mark. Digital is the thing we need to learn more about. So that's what we're focusing on because it's a very economical solution. You can afford to buy basically two to five digital units for the price of one regular green screen night vision. So, you know, standard device, baseline device, we're talking least expensive. On the other hand, if you look at more expensive the system, obviously if you are doing this in terms of how many people can outfit to give some form of night vision to and do it in force, then the digital wins out pretty much every time. And you can enhance it with deploying for second, third, well first, second, third, or fourth generation and there's fifth out there. Now I'm sure, but again by this time. But with the existing models available, those are used to enhance or given to key personnel for either command and control or placement fire. It's the placement fire shooters that need to be given the option to be able to go wherever they want to with their sights, put a target down, change and go to another target. Remember, every bullet, one hit. And we don't need a second hit on the target. If you tag them, that's enough. As long as you put a bullet on them and you're able to do that, switch to another target because you've got 10 rounds in the magazine, probably, depending on what it is you got, or 20. And we just want to make sure it's hit for hit, bullet for bullet. That's all there is to it. And again, move on to the other one. Once you tag them and you start to make them bleed, well, nature will do the rest for us. And again, incapacitation is what we're looking at. We don't have necessarily KIA at this point in time. That'll work all on its own. Medical systems a failure. Progressively, in fact, it's our medical system, so the medical system is a failure. We know what's going to happen there. Anyway, so a couple of things. Somebody asked me, and I did not get a chance to address this, but I wanted to wait till weapons Wednesday. Are all of you familiar with the difference between the 8mm modeler AP that's right now on the market and the standard US M2 AP? Well, here's the difference. If you've ever shot a standard US M2AP 30 caliber or a 50 cal, the penetrator literally comes to a point, and these are a case hardened AP projectile ensconced in a lead tin filler in a copper jacketed spitzer rifle jacket. That's the US now the German counterpart is a non. It's actually a flat-nosed conical if You haven't looked at this go take a look at some of the pictures available if you look it up I don't know what you'll find on the internet anymore. I've noticed it's been getting crappier and crappier for any kind of real data So it's like they burn the books but if you take a look at the any of the data books you have on German ammunition, you will find that the German AP actually has a flat nose, the penetrator. Now, this is part of two philosophies of how to build, and in this case with the Germans, the logic was that at a particular set range, I don't recall what the exact engagement range was for the 8mm Mauser, but for the US, the optimal range was 300 yards, not point blank. At 300 yards with bullet settle and turn and rotation, the 30 caliber M2AP would optimally pierce steel. At shorter ranges, it certainly would still pierce steel. It's almost standard ball round, by the way, to a degree. But it's a matter of the math and how they developed this projectile. And again, the idea was they didn't want, you didn't necessarily want to be close. Chances are if you were trying to use AP, it's because you've got something you need to use AP on. So you don't want to be any closer than you can help. And again, they understood that it would probably be an area target type situation. Oh, that's right. You know, a vehicle. So unlike the, oh, you can only engage the 220 yards, which is the BS here nowadays. Back then, back when especially World War II M2 AP was developed, 300 yards was considered to be the optimal or the expected optimal sustained rate of fire, bullet on, bullet on, bullet on target over and over and over again with the idea that they engineered the bullet to actually produce its best result at that range. Now it will penetrate well at 400 yards and 500 yards, but its optimal performance is 300 to 330 yards. So just a heads up there and again we have range finders. We get all kinds of neat tools we can use nowadays to actually get a better guesstimate on how to make that round work. Now here's another interesting thing. If you've been reading or paying attention to the specs for modern plate body armor out there, including the specs that the DoD load laid down. And I think this is rather interesting because let me ask you something. I just mentioned M2AP. Now that was made, 30 at 6 M2AP was made from 19, well the prototyping was done in 1937, 38 by Frankford Arsenal. Frankford Arsenal confirmed all the best choices, the War Department picked their best, you know, dot on the map out of whatever it is they had available to produce, and the M2AP and M2AP alternate were cranked out by 1941 in the beginning of 1942. So they produced M2-3006-AP from about 1941 to the beginning of the 70s, maybe middle 70s, because there were some production runs that were done for reserve or foreign contracts slash allies. But the M2AP was produced for at least 20 years reliably by the Donut of Destruction which started out as the War Department. And in that time, the primary individuals that carried it were the United States. At this point in time, its second line or third line countries example, Turkey's got a bunch of 30-06. They're dumping some of it in the United States. We just had some of it here about two weeks ago. That whatever came in, everybody bought up or scarfed up right away. And there'll probably be more. But that demonstrates, you know, again, they've had the production capacity even to do this because they got one of our arsenals that were one of the World War II arsenals that was disassembled after the war. It was dumped on, it was sold flash, let at least to Turkey, just like we did one with Greece and other countries, because we had 20 some arsenals that were available and typically we only would maintain about three to five, including our research arsenals, at any given time. As many as seven, nine, could be back in production pretty quick, since some were held in reserve, but others we were betrayed, they were handed over to people who eventually become our enemies in many ways. It would Turkey, That would be one of the last countries of the frontline countries that has a significant amount of 30 out 6 m2ap or m2a you know m2 ball or whatever because they do have frowning 1919s I'm sure they've got a plethora of the 30 out 6 inventory because like I said before everything flushes to Turkey But that's it. Okay, so the present spec for body armor, for hard body armor, the best quality stuff, is that it's supposed to and the government DOD contracts are working to protect against M2 30-06 AP. Well, wait a minute. The only people that would be carrying that would be a lot of Americans because we bought the hell out of this stuff. Oh. Oh! Yeah, you see what I mean? In other words, they are gearing to fight us. Does everybody understand that? There isn't anybody else really dominantly carrying 30-06 M2AP, but the American population that bought a big bunch of that stuff over the last 50, 60 years. And in fact, 30 years ago, a ton of that stuff came out virtually millions of rounds, millions and millions, and we're still feeding off it right now. Both in the ball projectile and the AP, you can buy even the components that were pulled from the bullets that were demilitarized, the cartridges that were demilitarized. The bullets were saved, the brass, the powder was dumped, the primers were punched, then what they did is they took a brand new primer, chucked it into the case. This is with the loaded ammunition. reintroduced the same IMR powder that they dumped out of it, proper spec, weight wise, reintroduced the bullet and sold it as remanufactured ammunition. Millions and millions of those rounds came out of, if you're called, Pennsylvania and also Tennessee and Kentucky, remember? And that includes not just AP, but armor piercing incendiary, armor piercing tracer, tracer and needless to say lots and lots and lots of regular M2 ball in 30.6 and 50 caliber. So again when you see these new armor specs understand there's only one group of people that they can figure reliably going to have a lot of M2 AP us as in US as in the American people not the government. And by the way, the 308, there is very little AP produced. In fact, we tried to convince everybody, I know we saved all the thousands of rounds we bought, a bunch of Israeli AP came in, not marked, back in the late 80s, early 90s. And I tried to get everybody to buy it, it was only about three cents a round. Boxer Prime, non-corrosive, and an AP load. Well, guess what? That stuff just faded away disappeared mostly because we didn't shoot it. We kept it reserved. So there is some 308 But again, it's in the it's not built in the US pattern It's built in the again the European AP pattern, which I thought was rather interesting Again, because the Israelis had FN FALs We gave them a bunch of m14s, which they turned around sold out the back door slid to other parties. We know what's happening there In addition that 762 by 51 NATO machine guns So, but still here again, very little of the AP in 308 by comparison. And it's why it's not even mentioned as an issue with regard to ammunition specifications with body armor groups. And there's a lot of companies making body armor right now. Just a heads up on that one. Okay, we're a little past the bottom of the hour. And I'll tell you what, music request, Ed, if you could, And I know again, guys, PokerFace has been out there for a very long time, but we haven't played them enough. We're still going to keep fitting them into the formula. In fact, I'll tell you, we shouldn't do that. I'm going to make it easy for Ed. It's Weapons Wednesday. Edward, if you could, our traditional Weapons Wednesday bottom of the hour break. That should be at your fingertips. And if we can, we'll plug that in. and get to work and right afterwards I've got a few other things I want to cover but you know again if we could remember this is your rifle and well there are many like it so we'll see if we can if Ed can work it in there and in the meantime I'm gonna shut up the moment it starts okay Another thing, the OD 50s that were requested, I took five of them, our allies, in fact it was a close order for some of you guys that were really, really close. Those are already passed off. So again, pay attention. We've got a messenger on the way and you guys should have those for, use one for tests, keep the others low hours. Always remember that. And I'm going to remind everybody on these OD 50s, do not, do not, do not. Don't shine them at your dog. Don't shine them at any friend. I don't care what you do to your enemy. But especially don't even play around. Hey, look at this. Because these are incredibly focused and incredibly bright illumination devices. They are painful, okay, if you're fiddle-parting around. Don't, in fact, always constantly think when you're handling them. It's kind of like, where's the muzzle of the gun? Don't put it towards your eyes, your face. Don't look at it. Nothing. Don't do that. Just as a precaution. Nope. And again, the OD-50. There is the OD-40 out there. I understand really it's pretty close in terms of pattern, the only difference in terms of internal operation. But the only difference is the improvements that they made to the 50 are very obvious if you compare the model 40 the OD 40 to the OD 50 and you'll see that there were things requested by the Operators and they pretty much listened to what was said and the next model coming out Had all of the other features that were requested by the people who were using the equipment The knurling on the barrel, the knurling on the body of the cone for control, etc. including I think also a switch to a different light switch system, which was something that somebody else requested. An interesting series of write-ups on the subject and how the thing has mutated to where it is. All good solutions, everything makes sense. The big thing here again is this is not for everyone. But these particular type of illumination devices do have a very useful and very specific application when the time comes. In fact, right now for area security and for long range area security, they're optimal. For varmint getting, they're phenomenal. It's the only way to describe it. If you're looking for a solution for long range illumination for varmint removal, two-legged or four-legged, obviously. In the environment we're in right now this works very very well And as might as well bring it up Long as we're on that subject if you'd like one of the OD 50s This is one of the ways that we're helping to support Liberty Tree radio at this time go to www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com when you get there go to the donation key when you get to the donation key what you want to do is include obviously your name all the basic information is going to be there but in the notation section first put OD-50 OD-50 capital O capital D-50 next make Next, make sure that you have your name and – or forgive me, your address, street address, city, and zip code. And go from there. So a lot of work to do, not much. And once we get the donation, what we do is turn around and send you a gift. And the gift is the OD50. Price per unit, the donation should be $135. There has been no change in price on that so far, crossing my fingers. And we would inform you if there was, but 135, which includes shipping, for the OD50 point illuminator, it is a fastening, it's using Cree LEDs. It's a fastening little piece of equipment. If you go look at YouTube and punch in OD-50 flashlight. There are some videos up to help you understand what I'm talking about because this is a visual device. and a visual slash elimination technology, you want to go to a video program to probably take a look at it. I can explain it all day, but it wouldn't do a whole lot of good. I'm sure you have a good imagination. But you've got videos that have already been done both on the OD40 and the OD50, and both are pertinent when it comes to helping you to understand how the technology works and what it does. So that's www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. When you get there, you go to the donate key. When you get to the donate key, you donate $135 for each unit. And yes, you can get more than one piece of equipment. That's not a problem. And once you've placed the order, what you want to do is also make sure in the Notations you put OD-50, OD-50, and then your street address, your city, your state, your zip code, and that should be good enough. Whatever the mailing address is that you want us to send your stuff to. That will work out pretty well for us, I think. And everybody should be happy. Also, again, like I said, we're trying to get these things to individuals as quickly as we can. They don't do any good being in our hands. And we're trying to minimize the flight time from point A to point B. As far as I know, everything's gotten to where it's supposed to go, so I'm pretty happy right now. And pretty much everybody has followed instructions per what I just gave. So we haven't had any confusion recently, and I don't think that's going to happen for a while. Everybody's pretty well on the same page. Plus, we understand how PayPal works, or at least you're having a better understanding of how it's changed. Some people haven't used in a while. That was the most common comment that, well, it's not like it used to be. It used to be automatic. Well, that's true, depending on what period, up and down, roller coaster, over the last several years, it has gone back and forth and they've changed the system yet again. Now, well, you have to do a lot of it manually, but that's not a problem. I think you can all handle that. Next, I mentioned CenterFireSystems.com. They do have a bunch of barreled receivers of different types there. And again, if you have a whole bunch of boxes under the bench like some of our friends do, Then if you go through the inventory that's there you might have everything you need to finish putting another rifle back together I know a lot of guys have a lot of extra wood stocks for especially the you know pre 1900 equipment There are a bunch of Arasaka receivers If you were gonna build an Arasaka right now you want to build a shooter what you do is you collect all the stuff that everybody rejected because it's not as pretty It may be functional but not as pretty. A lot of the components were defaced under code by the Japanese. So those are not in demand including the receivers but in this case these receivers are well whatever they are. One price I saw was two barreled receivers in 6.5 Arasaka, slash 6.5 Japanese for I think it was a hundred I want to say a hundred and thirty five dollars but I think there was one that was even lower. Now again Magazine, magazine spring follower, trigger, in some cases with these, the trigger is actually there with these Mausers or other guns that they were offering with, you know, again, barrel receivers. The one consideration with the 6.5 JAP and the 7.7 JAP is, well, most important is remember that the, because it's a Demi-RIM, you know, as I said, didn't say semi, although that's what they say. It's a unique case. The Japanese standard Arasaka case is a unique case, but interestingly enough, one of the best choices if you wanted to caliber convert, if you wanted to buy a new barrel for that Arasaka, Douglas barrel will make you any barrel that you ask for. They're not outrageously priced. So if you want to just have a straight bowl barrel done with an Arasaka thread, you know, and everything else ready to go, so you just, you know, torque it and time it, go, no go. You could build a really nice pack driving 30-30 Arasaka rifle. Yeah, you heard me right. 30-30 would probably be your best choice, not a a rimless case. Years ago when the Thai mousers were coming in, the Siamese mousers, they used to be $11, then they went to $17, then they went to $19 apiece directly through the mail, pre-98. They were beautiful virtually virgin rifles. God knows how many of these there were. I never get a count. Nobody ever did. I mean government did probably, but these were a non FFL rifle. There was no ammunition except two times in my history, my lifetime, and it was even a big deal in all the gun circles because somebody had found some standard Siamese-Mauzer ammunition original factory. Well, of course, because it's the only one that could have made it was the original factory. Nobody else bothered. And that's why the guns also were so cheap because they were, you know, dime a dozen brand new old inventory as, you know, as built and issued. And what a lot of guys did is made them into rifle projects. Well, one of the things that we found was the easiest way to convert over is to do it in 30-30. Case was the proper length. magazine well could handle around and again there wasn't any possibility of where we're pressuring but it really wasn't critical because it was a Mauser action and these Siamese Mausers were actually very well built metal or two was excellent a lot of people played with them and were very satisfied with the conversions they made they didn't go dirty hairy or anything crazy howdy was keep it in mid of mid-range I think today would be interesting to see It probably could handle 762 by 54R Russian. I don't know that, well, Douglas would make the barrel and the chambering. It'd just be a matter of how motivated you are to actually make the, you know, put the thing together and make it work. But over at CenterFireSystems.com, by the way, that's the only thing I haven't seen. I haven't seen any Siamese, Mauser, both barreled actions there, but everything else is there. Too numerous to mention. They have been selling them, but when they sell out, they're gone. So, what they got is, if it looks like you can put it in your cart, they have it. Now, how many they have, I don't know. So, if you're looking for, again, another way to add another rifle to the cache to put out in the middle of nowhere and you won't cry about building a gun up from spare parts and odds and ends parts and making it work. Nice way to create another weapon that is you know not on the books nowhere to be found and off in the middle of nowhere You won't cry about stashing it. It's a $5,000 rifle the magazine's cost $29.95. Oh my god. I can't bear it On the other hand if you spent $65 on the basic rifle the barreled action and then you put another $30 worth of utility parts you had on the shelf and maybe a $30 stock, not going to cry so much if you put that into a gun tube and forget about it for as long as it's needed. That's the most important thing about finding what are reasonably priced but serviceable arms is the balance is most people don't want to take a $2,000 gun and put it underground. But if you can make a whole bunch of guns for about $2,000, then you won't cry about putting them all under the ground. One here, two there, a couple over there, one over here. And it's pretty straightforward. Pretty user friendly that way. So, as it is, again that's CenterFireSystems.com, CenterFireSystems.com. And also check out Guns and Gadgets. You've got to remind everybody to do that. You're supposed to have another report coming up here that's a little bit of an expose. I don't know what's happened with that. Of course, that's probably why he hasn't been cranking out quite as many videos. So he's got another significant legislation report and also a personality report coming up. It might be posted over at Guns and Gadgets. I don't know, but he's supposed to be working on that right now. May have finished it. May not have. In addition, let's see what was the other piece here, ammunition wise, with the Russian, somebody's finally figured something out if somebody else is smart in the industry. And I don't know whoever tries to start cranking out 7.62x39 is going to be pressured immediately by the Batfaggots and the other Fed agencies along with the administration. Now, midway, In fact, what was it, Midwest Ordinance, forgive me, Midwest Ordinance was the primary contractor for doing 762x39 virgin brass for use in the US. A lot of people bought it, I did. A thousand count brass case bundles, Boxer Prime, non-corrosive, heat annealed. If it was loaded typically with a factory Russian 123 grain projectile, but they offered virgin brass again heat annealed never fired by the pillow bag again thousand count just like the loaded ammo and If you have it by God don't lose it But if you are we're looking for it to see if there's any inventory or if somebody is going to start cranking out off of their dies If they're not doing it themselves somebody may have bought all of the dyes for building for running the machinery to actually make 760 by 39. A couple of companies have already started to pick up the slack on this and so the bad part for the bad guys, if everything continues at the velocity it's going, pardon the pun, rifle, fire, velocity, anyway what's interesting about this is that the 7.62x39 in country production could obviously increase quite dramatically now. There's a tap point where everybody's realized, oh no, everybody's got a lot of 8Ks and SKSs, everybody wants to shoot them, and if they can't get the Russian ammo, and the Russian ammo is, you know, going to be about the same price as the other stuff that's out there, it's possible to bring that cost down in country. So, the good thing is we're going to see production back up on 762x39 in-house, maybe. Again, I don't see the enemy not harassing and causing problems for the manufacturers. It's not an accident they did what they did with the Russian ammunition because that's a certain niche. The AK-47, the AK-74, all the RPK variants, all of the SVD variants, be they Romanian or whatever. And everybody understands that this is a situation that, you know, right now the hourglass is squeezed. If everybody does right, that's in production though, this could create a significant wave of highly valuable reusable ammunition. And the greater we spread the wealth so that everybody, and you know, most everybody in every state has some of this, then this changes the dynamic for performance and maintenance operations and sustainability of the AK-47, the AK-74, if we continue since they have 762 by 39 doing, you know, 545 by 39 would be logical. I do not believe Midwest did 545, but somebody, if they were smart, would be cranking out either an alloy case or a brass case right now. And again, Boxer Prime, non-corrosive. Now the 545 is because of the type of projectile, not the dimension, but the type of projectile is what really is restricting what you can do with or how you're going to have to put that particular round together from components. But because there is not as wide a spread of 545 by 39, no 545 millimeter projectiles. It doesn't mean they aren't out there, but they're just not in the same quantity. Once people start reloading, the world changes with regard to availability. Always remember that. It's just as bad as brand new ammunition purchasing on such a regular basis that we exhaust all of the inventories. For the moment, the very broad and shallow pool looks really, well, not great, but it looks better than it did. Problem, it's not very deep. None of these piles are deep at all. It didn't take but a few hours for some of the stuff to get sold out again very, very quickly just with a minimal interest. And that's going to be true with everything with the next wave. So instead, let's be ahead of that. We're going to surf the wave, dudes. We don't want to spend the most and we don't want to, you know, again, lose sight of the big picture, more bang for the buck. We want more pew-pew in everybody's magazines. It's that simple. Another thing we were talking about, again, the weapons Wednesday, pistols very quickly. I would just as quickly carry a revolver as I would carry an automatic. And in many cases, with a lot of people, I would recommend, myself included, depending on what it is, I would carry a revolver as one of my most grabbable guns. In other words, if I carry different weapons, what would be my primary or considered the first choice to go to? Well, the revolver, the one nice thing is there's nothing to think about other than point and click. And we're not talking single action cowboy guns. We're talking any of the double action type, you know, single action, double action revolvers that have been made for... Well, a century and more now. It is the year 2021 and 100 years ago it was 1921 and every gun that we presently have is pretty much was in production except the M16. Revolvers, single and double action combined, were already well into production for many years, you know, 100 years ago. They'd already been in place, you know, 1921. Think about that. Post-World War I. So what are the advantages of the revolver what I just said point and click you got somebody you know set upon you unawares You're kind of stunt Any other action other than being able to reach the weapon and not necessarily even barely clear the holster Remember you turn your body for protection Fire right onto your armpit through your way through your gear If you're wearing a jacket, go right through the jacket, but you put a bullet into the core torso or some part of the aggressor as they're closing on you. If you've been caught and set upon unawares. The advantage is also if you're hit or wounded. You probably aren't perpetrating something, but somebody else is instigated in action because you're in defense, not offensive mode. You probably got hit first. So, one of the nice things is with point and click is pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, click, click, click, click. If you are able to focus on who it is that put a bullet on you and you are able to identify the target, you should be able to keep one of those rounds on target at least and preferably all of them if you know what you are doing. So, what we need to be looking at again is What's the mission or what's the normal activity you're involved in? Because the other problem with a lot of weapons is simply carry space. Many revolvers are quite small. They're actually very reasonably small when you compare them to the bigger and longer, wider automatics that have been coming into service here that have been produced because of interest in the market and the way the market runs. The big thing is that 357 Magnum 38 Special Both of these come with plus P's and plus P pluses and all kinds of expandable rounds to the point where you can pretty well do anything you could imagine or want with a revolver. One of the other advantages is if you want to again slow down you're going too fast. You got to make your ammo last. Okay. So with that being the case, that's where that single action and screwing the target screwing that gun into the target taking your time and making a hit rather than spraying and praying with you know five or six rounds Not a good idea and again, like I said if you're caught on a wear some days Somebody has set upon you your chances are if you took a hit to the head like a baseball bat to the head or a skateboard to the head or Something you know plowed across your chest. He didn't expect that you don't even know what is it hit you yet? Yeah, and somehow you got beat on or smacked in the back of the head take your pick Being able to pull the weapon and actually engage the target, you know, it's kind of like the well I killed the bastard that killed me. In other words, you might not be dead yet. Maybe you're headed that way But with the revolver less likely that you're going to you know, let's just say miss Provided you stay focused on the mission now since you know, you're hurt better. Make sure the other side hurt worse a lot worse Okay Uh oh, we're at the top so uh oh. For everybody out there it is Weapons Wednesday. Remember your mind is your first best weapon. There's a whole lot of other work you gotta do. God bless our Republic. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on and on. We're in the March for Fairmont. Take off for a few minutes, go grab a cup of coffee, use the bathroom, whatever you gotta do. And the second hour of the intel report is coming up. Again, we're interested in any boxer prime, non-corrosive, 7.62x39 if you run into it. That's for training. We also can use virgin cases. We're looking for quantity price, thousand pound or 500 pound pillows. Most commonly how they come. Well, we're trying to scrounge. We're not interested in the loaded rounds if we can get the empty rounds. We're gonna be back in a few minutes here. We're very free radio. It's not up in the wind. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You 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 buried. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear 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 torture 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 tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, dill the land of the free? And remember your training and you will come back alive. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Art Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, east, northeast, and Central. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com Liberty Tree Radio and Satellite and we are on AM&FM micro stations, CB Bay stations and Ultra Net Hallmark and Golden Spike Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. It is 607 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. It is Weapons Wednesday, 22nd of September, and it is the 13th year of open Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2021, old earth calendar 2021, battle for the Republic, the dance of swords. And congratulations, we are in the middle of the dance, as they say. So, let's see, are we at 16,000 or 17,000 or 20,000 with the pimple down there in Texas, or is it worse? Is it less? I mean, obviously we know how that's going to work out. It's bad no matter what. And the whole of the border, which is not changed, but in fact is just as bad as it's always been, is an issue. It's not they're totally deflecting us with regard to that little pimple down there, but remember that having to acknowledge or being forced to acknowledge a division's strength, the contingent of foreigners on American soil, just hanging around, getting fed, getting watered, pissing on the plants, turning the whole area into one big septic tank very, very quickly. If you have 14,000 people in one place and you have 25 Port of Johns, you do the math. Okay? That's why when you look at all those satellite pictures, the people are kind of milling over into the weeds over there and over into the woods. Of course they are. There's a hundred trees over there that will be dying in the next six days because of the level of urine that has now permeated the area. Piss kills feces feeds. Remember that? Just something to think about so anyway Go ahead call her Jim Pendant. Sorry to interrupt but I I I listen to a lot of radio and I hear this guy in Texas Andy's in Lubbock He's a veteran and last week he he called in a show and he said he was walking across the street He fell in the street. He got dizzy. He couldn't get up. He had to roll to the curb and And somebody called the ambulance, he ended up in the hospital and he didn't have insurance, they were poking and prodding at him and they kicked him out on Monday, I just found out. He may be calling in, you know, I tried to reach out through show hosts that I talked to and, you know, to get them on this call. But I just talked to another show host that, you know, has listened to you many years ago, but... He's in contact with this guy Andy. I don't know if you guys can help him or not, but I told him he needs to call in and tell a story. I can help with protocols, but I'm on a whatever. Anyway, he needs some help. I don't know if you guys are into that kind of stuff, but he is a veteran and he may reach out. He may not. I don't know. Anyway, I just wanted to throw that in and I didn't know there we go. It depends on what he needs but yeah, I'm right here in Lubbock myself. So yeah, that's what I reached out before and mentioned that and you know, I didn't actually talk to him but through show hosts and anyway, he didn't you know, I'd never heard him on any of the calls but I did hear today back to the you know, Texas border stuff. They said they're gonna be shipping these They already started flying these tens of thousands of Haitians around the country here. They said they were going to ship them out, now they're shipping them around. So that's the last intel I got. I yield. Right, the first lie was to try and buy time. We're going to ship them back to Haiti. I don't think so. I mean, it would make sense, but that's why it won't happen. You're dealing with the turds in Washington and the foreigners trying to disrupt the country. This is what you're going to get. Well, if I may, I think the best route would be a tunnel and ship them down to Haiti. Yeah. Well, I think we could walk them back to Mexico, but we just need ship spreaders, manure spreaders. It's an excellent tool. The, in fact, the, oh, come on, was it the, not the Romanians, Bulgarians? There's actual video of them doing a very fine job. Oh, Hungary. Hungary was the one. They're using pigs, of course, also, but they actually used manure spreaders slash, you know, manure spitters. to push the problem back away from any place where they were trying to push the fence down, you know, break through the barrier. And it's either A, stand there and try to breathe vapors or fall back and find someplace to clean off. And that's going to be back into the rear aways. In this case, hose them down with pig feces. The Rio Grande is right there. And as long as they head for the Rio Grande and walk across to Mexico again, we'll just only spray them enough to get them across the rest of the way. But otherwise, they wouldn't be there very long. This is a typical, you know, they're picking their nose, rotating thumbs as far as the government employees go and the lodge has told all the ring knocking lodge buddies that this has got to happen for the destruction of America. So all the uniform cop lodge buddies are just going right along with the program. It's just that simple. That's where we are. So Mark. I don't go ahead call it. I wanted to add to your comments yesterday about You know pushing them back in the Mexico and I just wanted to remind the audience that when that happened when the first wave happened what was like last year and You know, we were supposed to believe that. Oh, yeah, these people just walked Walked all the way up to the border these I mean if you look at the photos these people are obese super unhealthy probably asthmatic and diabetic and You know there's from my observations doesn't seem like these were the These people are not the epitome of health that could make that kind of journey and secondly you're correct in what you said yesterday that When those people, when finally the Border Patrol did push that invading, you know, contingency back into Mexico and Tijuana specifically, the Tijuana, the officials in Tijuana didn't want them there. So they were even, now that they were Now that they have the burden and they had to deal with the situation, they immediately started to find ways of trying to kick them out. I mean the authorities, so the federalities and military got involved. So anyways, that's just what I wanted to add. Well, yeah, it was great when they were passing through and they could profit from it or they'd be shaking their fist and wagging their wiener at America. But when all of a sudden they're plopped in their lap, Well, it wasn't any fun. In other words, it was expensive. It's costing them, you know, money, business, time. And so all of a sudden they were sounding just like us gringos up here. And you know, it's exactly that exactly is the case. The other thing was that when they did the group assault over in San Diego, that was a diversion, but it was a serious diversion. Meanwhile, right in the area where we're talking right now, Remember, the larger contingent went east. There's one full Mexican state south of the border. There's a split where the main highways either go up to San Diego or they go over to basically the bottom of Texas. And it's funny because they don't really, there is a secondary one single route that goes to New Mexico. And then of course there's the Nogales trek, but you basically take that, you go up as if you're headed towards California and you have one last little dog leg that takes you to Nogales. Other than that, it's dead zone because it's desert, it's no man's land. So what they did is they put one detachment, classic diversion process, One detachment went to the absolute extreme to pull everybody's eyes that way. Well, they were serious about their efforts, but they also were overwhelmed. They were dealt with. Meanwhile, they were throwing wave after wave after wave into the Texas frontier area just on the far west of Mexico. So, this is planned by someone other than the infantry, the ground pounders, that are the people crossing the border. And it's the same as with this situation right now. They are creating a very, very, you know, large polyp slash pimple slash pus pocket. And the idea is to put pressure and pull manpower. Now meanwhile, how many other locations since you have to have, you know, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 cops, Texas Public Safety, local cops to a degree, certainly the Border Patrol, everybody they pull from there, they can't be somewhere else. So obviously, again, this is not an accident. This is why they're pouring that beachhead. They established the beachhead, they're pouring everything in. One of the things they admitted, they've shut the actual legitimate access point, that bridge that they're under, to Mexico. Between Mexico and the US, they have to go 52 miles out of their way to cross the border if you're doing regular work, whatever that might be. And in reality, there is yet another purpose behind this. There's something else that they're going to kick off, and it's inevitable. Again, pressure is, at least the issue of safety is going on with the cops. So creating an incident where everybody will, like maybe the cops have to shoot someone. It's going to be interesting because then what they'll do is the bender were backwards and expect everybody to lick their own hind end to apologize to the rest of the illegals and now the illegals if they couldn't do any wrong before are saints and angels and all the Chitlins and all these people were all like priests from you know they were high priests and bishops and some are Cardinals from the Catholic Church they're just so saintly don't you know etc. etc. etc. So the idea is to get everybody to the point where you can't say a word no matter what. Even if you're against it, you can't say a word, which of course they want that anyway. But there's something afoot here with either what's going to be a shooting incident or something with a riot incident or at least an assault action where they're just by numbers, they can press it and There's nothing anybody's gonna do and then the feds gonna turn around say well, you know We were gonna ship him in the country anyway. Oh, well, don't worry about it. In other words, then the sky's the limit Why wait for the border guard when they the feds gonna tell you that you know Just rush across the border run like hell and ain't nobody gonna do anything And in fact, especially we do it in bigger numbers So it'll be interesting to see how they play this because it's the feds And there are four counterparts playing this action right now, across the board anyway. The whole thing is a setup. And it's not a... It's criminal. Go ahead, jump in there. Yeah, at the end of the first hour, you talked about some barreled receivers somewhere, and they had some 6.5 Japanese receivers. Right, it's CenterFireSystems.com, Eve, in their separate section where they have barreled receivers. They have probably close to 60 or 70 examples. It's a mix of rifles. It's everything you can imagine. Okay, well the 6.5 Japanese rifle or the barreled receiver, if that barrel is any good at all, that barreled receiver is a perfect candidate for a 260 Remington conversion. All you have, now people will have to have a chamber reamer for a 260 Remington, but you only have to deepen that chamber about About 30 thousandths of an inch or slightly less. It's not much at all and that and if you've got a really good sharp clean Chamber reamer that cuts really really fast and you can do that by hand and even a 260 Remington Some of them depending on when it was made whether it was early war or late war Some of those 260 Remington's will feed in the existing Aerosocca rails for six, you know for the six now five receivers And if they don't feed, it's basically a polished job to get them to feed. But a 260 Remington, the parent cartridge for that is a 308 Winchester. And all you have to do is anneal that neck and then you can take and resize that to a 260 Remington. But actually a 260 Remington in an Arasaka, a 6.5 Arasaka receiver, Believe it or not, that becomes a very decent 1,000-yard gun. And that Arasaka receiver is made out of a 10-50 medium carbon steel. Now, they made investment casts like that Parker Hale did using an EN-9, which is a 10-50 medium carbon steel. But that is a very strong, excellent little receiver. But a 260 Remington is a perfect fit. And like I said, the only different thing is you have to be careful because as you get to the shoulder depth, it'll just barely open it up to feed and then you can just lightly polish it. But there was a guy that was a gunsmith instructor down at one of the gunsmith colleges down in one of the Carolinas. And he'd done that, started doing that to some 6.5-era sockets. And believe it or not, those become excellent shooters. Now if that barrel's any good at all, but opening it up to a 260 is almost a perfect fit for that. And it's something that's cheap. Most people can get ahold of a chamber reamer if you were going to do, say, a quantity of those. The cost of that chamber reamer is like $105, $115, depending on where you buy it. And it's a very simple fit and it's very easy to open those up. And you do not, unless you screw up, you do not have to remove the barrel to do that. And the only other thing you've got to have is a go gauge and a no-go gauge. And you don't even need a field gauge unless you just totally screw up and you're just trying to figure out where you stand. But yeah, if those receivers exist and they're any good at all, That may be a bargain if the people can find what you need. Now, in the pictures, because I didn't take the time, I went and had to verify my information on what I told you for opening up the chamber on an Arasaka. Even if you have to take and make a stop stock for that. That's not that hard to do. There's blanks out there. Actually, it's a lot easier to convert an Arasaka to a 260 even if you want to sporterize it or upgrade it to another type of stock. It's actually not that difficult. That's basically why I wanted to add, Mark, and I thank you for taking my call. Well, remember the Arasaka is one of the strongest actions out there, guys. The rifle itself was never a bad weapon. In fact, it's a British design. It's in the Enfield category. In terms of performance and quality, wartime production brought the quality of the weapon down, which is where the noise about the later production weapons, which you do have to be cautious of the last weapons, the last-ditch guns, but those are very obvious because they are crude and rude. If you go through a gun show, there's usually a guy with a whole bunch of old Mauser and old military rifle parts, and he's got grab boxes or like trays, and in it you'll find two things. Swedish Mauser triggers, and of course even the whole bottom assembly with the magazine, you know, follower and whatever, and Arasaka parts that have been taken off of rifles because they have mixed them out. to take the cherry parts off of certain rifles and dress up another weapon to sell. And again, even receivers will be found in those grab boxes because all the national symbols were defaced and they were defaced by the Japanese. So they're not as valuable in terms of collectability, but for shootability, The quality of the product is fine. So what you can do literally is if you're very careful Bolts are easy to find actually a lot easier than you might expect The trigger is very easy to find there was a proliferation of spare parts and triggers and such that came in decades ago and it's still hanging around out there and The biggest thing I think would be the follower spring for the magazine And they used to be, again, like I said, if you know what you're looking for, if you know what your part list is, you can go and cherry pick through a bunch of junk boxes or odds and ends off tables and put a usable rifle back into place. Now, if you go with this chamber conversion, oh, hell yes. You know, you've got the best of both worlds. And there is actually some of the Remington ammunition is out there right now. So it's actually available, not the cheapest necessarily, but again, you can also rebuild your own as needed, which is not a problem. And in the process, well, you know, somebody's asking like, what would you put on the roof? I'd put a standard nine power to begin with. You know, that's my favorite. Standard nine, not variable. But nowadays it's cheaper to find a three to nine variable scope than it is to find a static nine power. So take your pick, whatever it is you're comfortable with. Rings, I've found rings for as little as 99 cents a set and a scope anything you want in a you know, three to nine scope for what? $27.95 for you know, the Barca Or some of the other new turkish imports, which are a little more expensive. Oh, maybe $40 $50 But they're out there and so like I said, the next thing is butt stocks. They're actually a lot of cobbled stocks, but People are picking up the cobble stocks, which is where the prices change. The last cobbled stocks I got for Arasaka's cost me $10 a piece. And the guy had a barrel of stocks and there was nagot stocks actually with everything but the receiver for $10 barrel everything on board, you know, the trigger group, they just and even the bolt duct tape to the side of the of the barrel. But in addition to that there were again Swedish Mauser stocks Also, let's see. What was it? Gewehr 88 stocks stuff like that pops up and usually somebody has a bunch of junk under the under the workbench Every once in a while they look under there and go. Oh, what do I want to go play with something? So they'll bring stuff like that out put it at the show Evil Santa guys how many remember him at the knob Creek machine gun shoot? He used to run into him. He used to bring two or three barrels of stocks, sometimes even complete kits, everything but the receiver, $10 a piece. And if you bought three of them, it was $25. So there's, there's stuff like that floating around. That's the reason you go to gunshot, not cause I want to see the six, seven, 900, well, thousand dollar AR. It's because I'm looking for those other things that everybody has that they picked up to try and make table money. And if you're careful and go through all the table money boxes, because that's what they do, that's what pays for the table to get the thing, you know, to get the ball rolling. You can actually build more than one if you're smart. The one that I was working on, like I said, Swedish Mausers, which by the way, now I wish I had half a dozen of them just, you know, laying around ready to build because there's still a whole pile of that 6.5 Swedish down there at JgSales.com. It went up a little in price, but not much in price. So it's actually still the cheapest ammunition out there in the country. Wooden bullet training rounds, you know, blank, quote unquote blank. Well, their idea of blank, that's a projectile. Okay. Wooden blank training rounds. You don't want to get shot with a wooden bullet. Trust me. You don't want to get shot by anything. Another thing here about the Arasaka is, as they point out, strongest action. It is a cocks on the closing stroke. Just a little reminder there. But you got to be a little aggressive. And it's the most common thing you got to teach people is you're not going to break your weapon. You're not going to hurt it. Be aggressive. Don't worry. It's a military rifle. The other thing about that is that while most of the Nagats and Arasakas have straight three o'clock bolt station. It's not difficult to turn that bolt down if you're gonna scope mount it. The other consideration is you can also work with it as a ranch rifle slash a camp rifle or scout rifle, remember as Cooper used to say, go with a long eye relief scope and leave the bolt the way it is. Don't have to fiddle fart with anything. The big thing here again is understand all the nuances of the arm So you want to take a look at some of the other air sockets that are probably laying around on the tables There aren't any hundred dollar ones anymore that I know of But they used to be kind of a dog because they were at that point where they people weren't collecting them You know, we're as excited about collecting them and but there was no ammunition for them not in any great quantity and other than PMC and then after that The regular preview partisan Everything else was outrageously expensive if you want to buy Japanese Arasaka. Remington wasn't cheap, Winchester wasn't cheap, normal was always expensive, but PMC brought the price down affordable shooting and reloadable and PPU has done the same thing. It's taken the market where PMC wasn't allowed to. We are at the bottom of the hour. There we go. We're at the bottom of the hour and if you could our bottom of the hour regular traditional weapons Wednesday break I know you may have a couple things you're keeping visit or keeping you busy there, but if you can again The tradition here we go What fun it is in the red coast, what mind you manage to build in our valleys there is danger and there's danger in our hills. Oh, here you're not just singing all the music wild and free. Soon you'll know the ringing of the rifle from the tree. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands, will prove no choice. You may ride a good lead speed, you may not turn a master You forward march with speed, but you'll learn the back much faster When you meet our mountain boys And your leader John Scott That you'll make but little noise, and always hit the mark Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands, we'll prove no trifle No graves at home, back across the briney water And giddy must come like bullets to the floor But if we the job must do, then the sooner it is begun If sentence figure hold the but through, the quicker it will be done Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove no deripher Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove no deripher Thank you very much Edward. We are back and again that pop-pop is remember the muzzleloader the pan with a flint and then the Round actually the my primary charge going off. That's what that that rim shot supposed to be And in fact, we had some black powder shooting going on somebody prepping for the season here just down the road and boom boom boom Not that fast. He wasn't reloading that fast. He wasn't that practiced I don't think but anyway He was put a few rounds down range and it's affordable. So it makes sense Anyway, also again, this is my rifle there are many like it, but this one is mine Now I don't care what you master is like I said if you show up towing a 105 behind you and you've got one shell in each shoulder pocket barely I'm not going to complain. I just make sure you know how to use what you carry. So there's not going to be any debate here. I mean, we do. It is desirable to have a certain amount of standard, you know, arms in hand. But, you know, somebody shows up with something that's really unique and useful. We want that person to carry that weapon into battle proudly. So, whatever you pick, master the trade. I've said that many times, but it is especially critical at this point in time, master the trade. Now, one of the things you can do, and anybody who tries to poo-poo Airsoft, you don't know what they're talking about. Airsoft originally was developed by the military decades ago. Late 70s, no, forgive me, early 70s, a variation on the Airsoft rifle idea was built along with other force-com training aids. But the problem is that, you know how anal-retentive the government is, and as the 70s moved down, especially just after Vietnam, oh, they changed arsenal requirements and they forced everybody to shut down half the arsenals across the country. the armories, you know, the armory stations that were located because of new physical requirements for operational security. And because of that, the problem was that if you wanted to check out the pellet firing training aid or the force com training aid, It was the same complicated rigmarole as actually checking out the real firearms. So why bother? In other words, it was too much trouble. The training devices were inconvenient and inconsistently available to the units that needed to be trained. Well, we don't have that problem. Number one, I'm not waiting for somebody's permission for me to get and pick up what I need to get the job done. And in this case, Airsoft is an excellent solution. If you have a minimal budget, then go spring if you are available with a little more resource, either electric or gas, and both have advantages and disadvantages. But the electric obviously for economic purposes simply requires the electronic with whatever hop-up exists on board the airsoft gun, pistol, shotgun, rifle, and lo and behold, as long as you can pull the trigger, it'll work. the electronic system is pretty reliable. Now gas, the one thing about the new gas guns is a little better performance velocity wise if they work properly, key word there. Also there are other features for instance, automatic blowback on the semi-automatic pistols which does look impressive and creates a much more realistic environment with regard to the airsoft training device because remember not going to call it gun but the air well the airsoft guns that are out there they look they feel and you can buy them with even the proper weight spec you can buy all metal you can buy less expensive models you can buy whatever is necessary to fit the budget that you have but most important is you can pretty well find everything out there that you own from SKS's to AK's of all variants to AR's of all variants, M14's, SBD's, Sega variants, pretty much every pistol. In fact, many companies sponsor an airsoft gun. They may have an airsoft gun made that matches up with their latest flag, pistol or rifle. So the neat thing is, is you actually can find with a Taurus name on it, a Taurus 724. And to be quite honest, laying on the table, you can't tell the difference from one to the other because all the parts are integrated properly and everything does what it's supposed to do. And these are Taurus-sponsored airsoft weapons. There are a number of different types, but it's also true for Remington, Colt, etc. Colt seems to have chins out a bit, but they do have some pretty decent airsoft knockoff copies that conform to the basic specs across the board of whatever standard arm they're mimicking. So you get more range time. And range time is good time. All stick time. If you're a pilot, what's that term? All stick time is good time. Doesn't mean you never switch your flying. All stick time is good time. And the same is true with regard to range fire. All range time is good time. All fires are good. Use them. The big thing here again is when you're loading them, no don't load them with 500 rounds in a magazine or 200 rounds in a magazine. Well, it'll carry 300 rounds. Yeah, well, that's not what you're carrying in real life, would you? Well, no. Now, fact of the matter is, that you load the airsoft mags to match with the standard combat load for the weapon that you want to train to use and then you will have to change out magazines accordingly based upon a realistic volume of fire that you can use at any given time. And yes, they do make copies of drums, which by the way, have an ungodly magazine capacity, but Again, they're not realistic, except in Hollywood forever shoot guns. Okay, well, man, you never stopped shooting. Yeah, I know. In this case, you don't have that problem when you load to proper capacity. If it's in 1911, seven rounds or eight. If it's a Smith Model 59, if it's a Browning High Power, if it's a Heckler & Koch, whatever the standard magazine capacity is, for the regular weapon that you plan on using. That's how many pellets should be loaded into the magazine and each magazine for service use. This is part of the muscle memory control memory process. This is especially critical that you maintain these standards. Now... The only odd man out really is two, well there's two. There's the shotgun and there's also M203 launchers that really aren't. Okay, there are some that do have the full-size M203 grenade type unit. They basically use a shot shell multi-barrel system. The shell that you load actually is loaded with multiple pellets, but they're in individual little barrels. When you pull the trigger, you get this shotgun effect. Kind of like the round that they made for personal defense for the M79 Grenadier. Which by the way, they bled over into the M203s. Ooh, pardon the pun, bled over. But anyway, any of the other weapons like the shotguns are limited, there are better quality and lesser quality as just as I pointed out with everything else involved here. But you do get the basic understanding of how things work. But for pistols, shotguns, bolt-action rifles, everything you need is right there to get you on target and to keep you proficient, supplement your live fire training. And again, you still treat everything as a real weapon. When you're using it, you don't point it randomly at somebody. You don't play with it. And when you do engage, you don't engage in a flip it matter, but instead you actually focus on all the basics and accomplish the task using the Airsoft training aid. to replace live fire or to supplement live fire. Point, you can be on an airsoft range at lunchtime every day or right after work. Every day you can set up a range anywhere. Nobody's going to know you're shooting. They can't tell. And that means you have the opportunity to get a lot of trigger time in and you must do this. You need to take advantage of this. Another thing somebody's asked before about optics. You can spend a kind of money and actually mount the same optics that are on most all of your conventional arms especially if that's what you're cross training to do is use the actual weapon. There are there's every SMG model out there the MP5, Sten guns, Stirling's, Krenkoff's, micro ARs which are really pistol-sized submachine guns not AR-15 M16s. And there are a number of other weapons systems, too numerous to mention. You can find pretty much anything you want, including little Barrett knockoffs. Well, not little, actually pretty big. And you can spend the amount of money. So I don't think you're going to spend $6,000, $7,000 you'd be doing. If you had that kind of money, you're probably buying better night vision, right, or something comparable. But there are some reasonably priced airsoft training aid you can go to airsoftgi.com airsoftgi.com airsoftgi.com you can go to Bud K that's another one and Sportsman's Guide has some airsoft also but if you compare prices you'll find that amazingly enough airsoft GI is comparable to pretty much the others in terms of you know key baseline components and equipment that you need and Airsoft GI that's all they specialize in. You know, keyword, Airsoft GI. There you go. Yeah, we'll figure it out real quick. And it's definitely a worthwhile endeavor. All range time is good time. Okay, got that in there. Now, another thing about body armor right now, and body armor is, now this is another issue that's really gonna have to be addressed. But some people are starting to find out that heel plate body armor is heavy. Yes, we already explained that to everybody a long time ago and there's no way that it will change the weight. And I have not, as I have pointed out many times here, seen any new titanium products on the market. Have you? And I don't understand why because titanium was in a big rush here for the longest time. It was very successful. I have a whole bunch of titanium chicken plates for my body armor. In fact, they originally were government plates because the DOD don't destruction or the agencies disposed of their stuff and one of our allies and others, or even still doing this, would buy the kickouts where they had 28, 30, 40, 50,000 pieces and they would just change out automatically to new vests, new everything. titanium chicken plates for the front, you know, shock trauma area over the heart were the norm. In fact, most of my armor is one layer of titanium plate. And then I bought for another $5 because they were available. Same defense quality, same defense rating of compressed Kevlar, like the Pascad helmet type material. I'd layer the bit just slide that in right on top of the titanium now I've got laminate armor and you still have the soft vest under me So it works quite well Do we have a collar? No, sorry mute off Okay, very good. Now. One of the reasons I bring this up is again what I mentioned right from the get-go here guys wearing steel plate randomly as a useful defense or offense tool is one of those things where you wear it as you know that you're going into a high threat environment. But wearing it and living in it every day, have you tried that? And I would remind you that again, that weight factor is not going to change. Now what is going to change in the future is caloric intake or caloric intake take your pig about tomato tomato there. Um Guys, you're only going to be eating so much a day And it's gonna get worse. We had Nancy. We're kind of talking about this and a lot of other people who've had the same conversation with about we if The economy keeps going as expected and it is Pretty quick here. All these people that are dunderheads are going to be wanting, you know to eat And a lot of the usual ideas of their, you know, freebie watering holes are going to dry up. When that happens, you have a lot of younger people who believe that what's mine is mine and what's yours is ours. And because that's why they like being communists is because stuff is free or it's supposed to be free. And we're not really handing it away for free. We're not giving it away, which is something that really pisses a lot of them off. But when that does happen in all sides, no matter who you are, you're not going to be at the same level of consumption that you're used to. And remember that when you're carrying stuff around, every part of your body is being worn on this. You know, there's a lot of things happening simultaneously, young or old, it doesn't make any difference. And this means the body is going to need more of everything to continue to function. This is dead weight, literally dead weight. The only thing it does, it's armor. It doesn't serve any of the function. You won't be losing any of it unless you take it off and say, I think this is too much. So the problem you've got is it is a constant incessant burden to your physiology. And there's where the problem is. That's why a lot of people are going to be changing out for compensating. with, you know, probably all auxiliary, lighter armor for most of the work that you're doing so that you are wearing armor, but you're not, again, wearing down the body parts, not the least of which is core energy. So we have to take that into consideration. Also your age factor. There is soft armor that's rated higher. It also is more expensive, but... Every once in a while there's some stuff that peaks out in foreign military that is of comparable quality but not as expensive because it is a surplus item. There are several items out there, systems out there, worthwhile. The Polish armor that was available, it's almost been a year now, the Polish armor that was available was excellent quality. We've got a quantity of it. It was under $70. and rifle rated and upgraded dramatically with additional shock plates, gorges, arm armor, the whole nine yards in addition to the over plate and the chicken plates we just talked about a few minutes ago. And you can add to it. You can increase its armor defense potential and not really add an extreme amount of weight in the process to get the job done. So again, if you've got the steel plates and you're going to find that they're a little tough, they gall over a period of time, if you're wearing them a lot, you're going to have specific wear points where you're going to eventually almost demand that you come up with some kind of under armor, football armor. Now let me point something out. Knight's armor had the same problem. And contrary to what you see most of the hand-me-down stuff where people, you know, show you, this was a Knight's helmet. But they don't show you, and what you need to go research is the layers of padding and supplemental clothing that were designed to protect you from the sharp impact or the blunt impact of a weapon, but it also prevented galling and fatigue issues because of wear and tear on the body. Now, if you're wearing plate armor, Well, let me give you the best example. If you've gotten any of the British armor, I know several people have commented on this, yeah, it has this like impact armor. That's exactly what that was. The impact armor serves two purposes. Number one is obviously if there's a strike and there's a partial penetration, that impact armor is the last component that's going to hopefully disperse some of the energy. No, it's not going to disperse the bullet. It's the impact strike point where the bullet was stopped. It's going to dissipate the energy over a wider space. It's like being hit with a hockey stick wearing hockey armor. It doesn't kill you. You know it's there, but it's dissipated. Same thing happens with this trauma pad underneath all of the vest. That's why it was there. Now, the other thing is also carry weight issues. Galling, especially redistribution of the weight over the shoulders. The collarbone, the area around the neck, this is one of the issues that they have addressed for years and came up with a number of different solutions. Mostly again, it's not only with the armor, but with web gear. The wider the shoulder strap, the more distributed the weight so it's not focused on a small area and because of wearing. action in motion you don't get a gall or you don't get a soft point or a tender point at one spot along the that area of your body. It was very difficult to operate without being a distraction. So just a heads up that's another reason you also want to gauge the plate carriers that you can be looking at and by the way there's no rule says that you have to Just carry that plate carrier over a t-shirt or even over just you know basic utility sweat gear because that's not really your best option. There's a lot of other equipment out there including lesser and I've said this many times, lesser undercover vests that are cheap. They don't cause they were cheap now they're at health I'd find one. But you're not talking about adding a massive amount of weight, but you are also increasing both the protection of the body and anti-armored defense or anti-fragmentation defense. So everything is a plus if you balance it out right. No matter what, the plates work. Don't make any mistake about that, but it's where you're going with them. Even sitting in a vehicle, You would think, well, I'm sitting down, I'll be able to take it easy. No. Have you ever tried to breathe with body armor? Have you ever lived in body armor? Now, when you do live in body armor, remember you still got to... And what's interesting is, remember, you're constricted in a number of different ways. The armor itself, of course, has got elasticized materials typically that hold it in place. they're compressing on your chest. And on top of that, you got your Web Gear or your TacticalVest, whatever you're doing there if it's separate. If you've got an integrated system, you still have the same issue of the same weight applied to the specific parts of the body. And that becomes very apparent very quickly. So this is another part of the math formula. You need to experiment and find out how and what works best for you. In some cases, depending on age, no, you're not going to be running around with a full combat load. What you need to do is tailor out your equipment to make sense accordingly. A lot of you, if you're older, aren't going to be combat infantry, but everybody may have to fight. So you all need to be prepared. If you're medical, radio operators, vehicle operators, everybody carries a decent arm, everybody, you should be carrying some body armor. And again, full wraparound is my personal choice over core steel armor and no side coverage. That's another issue I've addressed many times over the last three decades. Remember, somebody says, well, it's only a fragmentation vest. Yeah. Well, you know, when the battlefield is coming up, it's going to be like every war. Guys, they're going to try everything they can to indirectly mess with you, not directly mess with you. And it's the indirect fragmentation damage that is cumulative and or lethal just unto itself that you're going to have to be prepared to deal with. And that's why you need side armor, throat armor, full chest, full back, you know, etc. And that's where the older military flak vests truly come in or hold their own. It's why a lot of people don't chuck out any of their old armor, even considering body salt and wear and tear with regard to dirt in the fibers of the armor itself. Since typically the armor is in cells like a steel polymer, if it's soft armor, it should survive, you know, for, you know, not should, but will survive for a very, very, very long time. Big thing is take care of it when you're not using it. And again, do maintenance. Do maintenance. Do maintenance. What do you need to do to keep all your armor intact? Well, your operator's equipment, you know, whoever your operator is make sure that again each person is using the buddy system doing mark we are close we're a close to the top of the hour I'm gonna come up and let people know Craig will not be live again this week he's do it he's working on his project so right now he's possibly been he's probably pumping a little bit because you know as in moving water because we've had a regular steady rain in that part of the state I mean, not a torrential ring, guys, but just a nice pittery on and off ring. And it's doing it right now again. So all over. Coming out of the north, I will remind everybody. And again, if you're going to be out training this weekend, pull out and make sure you've got all your wet weather gear. Check it over. Square it away. Make sure it's ready for use. And make sure it's attached to your combat load. That is again most common mistake. Well, I'm just going to borrow this piece of equipment off my gear and then they forget to put one part back and they maybe put half back but they are still using the other part and then well, wait a minute. I need the knife on my gear. It's right here. It's a really cool Gerber utility. I know. Yeah, I think I'll just and you plop that somewhere else by the time you're done a whole bunch of stuff is missing from your minute bank yet another reason to pick up some of those cheapie like specials so that if you need something to do some work in like I did today, guys, I used the $1.50 and $3 Swiss ponchos we got years ago. Went on just fine, kept the rain off while I was outside during the torrential rain today. I came back, shook it off, and it's sitting there waiting for me and a whopping $1.50 when they were in their high point and as little as $1 when they were on sale. Lots of other stuff out there still. Like I said, those American wet weather pants for a dollar a pair of lower Coleman's and also check out Keep Shooting dot com. We're gonna go to break. Oh, we're gonna take off the moment. God bless our Republic. That's the new world order we shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire is on the run we're in the march and again We're in body armor. We got to balance it out. We got to make sure that you do have a certain amount of internal protection Body parts got to keep working where you work very well. They have a lot of resistance. Take it off. God bless. We'll be back in a good quality.
