addresses multiple triangular bandages, 4x4s, 4-sips, clamps, emergency scissors, another thing that I recommend, just right here, which are small shank, pre-cut links of parachute cord. That goes in the kit with everything else. Step one, I'm going to be using any of the Different types of tourniquets that I have on hand that are the commercial ones per se But those aren't going to last very long and if you have a casualty with two limbs or more injured Then you might be using most on one patient. So here's another thing I'm going to remind you about The bad guys are going to first of all try to hit a populated area the Israeli Mossad Elements of Homeland Security ATF and FBI are the bombers who are getting ready to attack America In the process of them doing this, they're going to select targets that are going to A, try to kill as many of us. They're not going to go after the face-bark group. They're going to try to be doing Americans that are pro-patriot, etc. That way they can muffle everybody out with their government propaganda screams, etc. That's the plan. So, the big thing here again is that first response, immediate response, first take care of yourself. I got to remind you of that too. Most common mistake made. Oh, I don't think it's major. Guys, there are people who have been trying to help somebody else progressively fade because they miscalculated the injuries to themselves. You have to take care of and fix yourself first. It's just like when you're in any other emergency situation. confirm and apply needed to keep you functioning so that you can get everybody else out of the situation. Maybe it's just so you can get your ass behind the steering wheel, move the other casualty over and get out of the area if it's possible to use the vehicle. Remember, get away from the epicenter ass to the blast with whatever the event is. get out of the area as quickly as possible because with every minute you're going to have a cascading failure on the part of the people that are right there when the incident took place, panic. A day's confused, hurt and panic. And on the other hand, you're going to have the influx of both emergency services, but also other people moving through the area, not necessarily because some will be even just trying to gawk. It's horrible, but it's true. However, with every passing minute, it will be more difficult to move out of the area of activity. And if all you can do is get several blocks away or a half a mile away from the epicenter, stop and then proceed with whatever else needs to be done. That is something you should have to take into consideration, some kind of judgment call you're gonna have to make, okay? The big thing here though is if your people are trying to save your people and they're bleeding to death, you have to immediately recruit from the team or the group of people that you're with or whoever it is you've decided to help. You've gotta slap somebody into consciousness and make them help to deal with the problem. You have a traumatic casualty event created by the Israeli Mossad, Homeland Succu-Ridey, the ATF FBI, which are all part of Homeland Succu-Ridey now. The Succu-Ridey group, of course, are bought and paid for hoards. So they're going to cooperate with this. Now, because of this, and again, it will be a mass casualty situation, they're going to prioritize too. So beware, you don't want to be stuck in that. We're not a... Where the longer you stay in the area the less emergency resources available per patient. Do you understand that? So rule number one, if you have the tools in the toolbox, you use them, you preserve life. Keep people breathing, keep people from losing all the radiator fluid, keep them from bleeding. Well, once you've got some stability, unask the AO however you can. And by the way, the vehicle's destroyed. Well, pick your ass up and start moving away from wherever you are. However you can. Walking wounded have to support or help everybody else. But the idea is to not stay in the area of activity. It is a slow motion molasses type of killing zone. And remember, you don't know what happened. All you know is there are casualties. You may be in the middle of the situation that's escalating. Now there again, let's not forget, we don't know what you're gonna run into. If you're looking at what may be a radiological threat, pay attention to the wind, remember what we've talked about. You want to go perpendicular, you don't move with the wind. Radiological threat's coming down, not a matter of just when. To what degree is determined by how extensive and how dirty the device might be. Okay? The other thing to remember, you've already seen this, just because it's an explosion doesn't mean it isn't going to be chemical. Palestine. Oh, that's right. And they did that one intentionally, didn't they? They had a burn and a boom. Or was it a boom and a burn? Which was it? Now, this is another reason you want to make sure that you have gas masks in the vehicle. You don't have to be very fancy. I just moved a box of 20. I told you guys to buy it. I bought them too. They were, even though I have thousands. They were the Russian gray possum masks. They were $3 apiece. You still have to buy filters. But you can put those into containers with the filters. They're simple to use. And you could actually have enough so that hopefully as many people in the vehicle would have one. Now, once again, I want to remind you of something. You don't try to be Billy Bad Butt, Captain Save-a-Ho, and do without a mask if you're going to drive. Okay, I'm sorry, but this is something that's tough for a lot of people The drive whoever it is that has the ability to get you out of the epicenter of the event Has to have the protection technology This is just like if you're driving if you have a vehicle and you only have a limited amount of body armor Who gets the body armor the driver why? Because if the driver dies you all stay in the kill zone and die with him Now it doesn't mean he can't get a bullet right through his beater right away. I mean, after all, you see that movies all the time. Oh, I got shot in the head. Okay, well, that could happen. But guess what? If we do a little better protecting, maybe that won't happen. And so our probability of survival goes up because as long as Bob, the driver can keep driving, all the rest of us will go along with Bob. Even if we got bullet holes in us, even if we got fragmentation, you know, sheared through us or, you know, stripping parts of our flesh. At least we're now out of the situation and Bob and whoever else might still be cognizant and functional is going to do what they can to try to keep you patched up. But that's not probably going to happen right away. And let me give you an example. Let me, if everybody goes, oh, Korky's crazy, that's not how it's going to be. Let's talk about the marathon bombing. What? Oh, the marathon bombing! Does anybody remember old Mr. Chicken legs? Remember the guy with the two legs blown off? Am I jogging your memory? Guys, they made sure they had skylight pictures looking down from above on open wound and amputee casualties with lots of really bright, bright, bright, painty kind of red blood. You remember this? What happened? I remember the empty bags being on the ground. Repeat caller. I'm sorry. Repeat. I remember the empty bags, the empty blood bags on the ground. Yeah. One of you lay in there applying the blood to her legs. And so let me ask everybody, if we look at that from the perspective of believing the BS that they generated, didn't you have a whole bunch of trauma? You had a trauma casualty. Now this is just with, this was with a small number of actual victims, quote unquote. Let's just take it at face value, okay? Mr. Chicken Legs has got both legs blown off, remember that? Remember that? Old pasty, the guy was all pasty-faced, right? Why weren't they all whisked out of there? I mean, after all, we're in the middle of a metropolitan area. You got ambulances in hospitals in every direction. How is it that those people laid there? Go watch the videos if you can still find any and count the amount of time it took. In fact, remember the guy with the double amputation, they picked him up, put him in a wheelchair, and hauled his ass down the street. Now, that is the absolute last thing that you do is pick an amputee up when it's the legs and stand them upright. What do you try to do? Bleed out what's left? Raise the legs. What's left of them? That's right. What you're doing is you're treating for shock. You immediately apply tourniquets wherever it's applicable or compressed if that's what you got. But you sure as hell aren't going to pick the casualty up. Put them in a wheelchair with both legs supposedly blown off right there. And on top of that, put an American flag in their hand so they can have an American flag for the propaganda photo. Yeah, and it was conscious all the way out. Guarantee if my legs blew off, blood pressure goes down. Within five seconds, I'm unconscious. Yep, exactly. But he was it was really interesting because what I just explained to you about why you have to get out on your own They let those people lay there people If we go by the face value of what they showed you they showed you what I told you Then there weren't that many casualties there weren't that many in other words, you know the people that when you realize how dense the population group was and there were lesser casualties and lots and lots of walking wounded But the fact is that what happened to the critical casualties? Well, they lay there and bleed on the ground by the images they showed us. And Mr. Chicken Legs, they obviously what? Felt that because he had both legs blown off, piss on him, we're just going to let him die. Is that what they did? Because that is what it looks like they did, by the storyline in the script. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. I don't care what the lemmings do or the brain dead. The important thing is that all of you listening, once you do this, you're done. You got the tools in the toolbox. It's like how often do I use my metric angle wrenches that are in my toolbox? Well, very seldom, but the one time I use them, they pay for themselves. You know what I mean? You ever have that double 45 taper wrench where you got one on one end, one on the other, and it's a closed wrench? What is that for? It's for getting around stuff when you can't reach in there with your fingers or do it straight, but you still got to get the little bastard undone a quarter of a turn at a time. Not how monotonous that is, but you know what? It does come off. Because you had the tool that you need in the toolbox. The same is true with having the IFAC and having emergency blast kits with you ready to go. And again also the gas mask Y, they've already shown you what can happen. All you got to do is look at Palestine and just think bigger scale or more intentionally deployed. Okay, and rule number one, remember, if Bob is the only one who has the gas mask, because I put it on Bob's face because everybody else is chewed up, I'm trying to keep people at Bob. Here's the mask, get behind the wheel, drive down this street right here, head to the west, look at the air, which way are the clouds going? Okay, north, south. Go west, go west, young man, go west, or east. You drive, I'm going to start patching people up as best I can, and I'm hurt too, but I'm still in better shape than most. So guess what? Yeah, again, prioritize. If you got one gas mask, maybe you were stupid, but only put one on the car. That's really a mistake. Or maybe you're the only one to carry the mask. Guess what? Whoever it is that can be driving, they get the mask. Why? Because if Bob the driver chokes himself to death sitting there clutching the steering wheel and Roy O falls into a telephone pole with the rest of us with the vehicle, we're all dead. Everybody else gets a wet rag over the nose. Yep, whatever you can improvise for the moment to buy time. But remember, every foot and every moment that Bob gets you away from the epicenter of the event, your survivability rating is going up. Remember, keep moving. You're like a shark. It's like offensive driving. What's the first rule of offensive driving? You never stop moving. You are a shark. Sharks don't stop. If sharks stop, they die in the water. You don't stop. First rule of offensive driving, you don't stop. Doesn't make any difference what condition the vehicle is in. You don't stop. First thing we were taught, you don't stop. Battle damage, you don't stop. Keep moving, keep moving, keep moving. Because the vehicle will do a better job than your feet will. Now, once the vehicle's shot, yeah, Mr. Hoof is in motion. That's how it's gonna work. So let's be ready for this. Again, bad guys are in motion. They're going to pull whatever they're going to pull. If we can catch them on the ground with Hillary Basterd, we can find when they try to do it. Trust me. But it's most likely that how this is going to work is the enemy, the Israeli Mossad, elements of Homeland Security, the HF FBI, and other federal agencies are going to bomb us, burn us, whatever, and they're going to try to...they already got a script. You just saw it happen with the Nazi flag. Would the would the guy from South Asia, you know the Indian man 19 years old if you look at all the school pictures He's a medium dark complected individual. Look at all the propaganda pictures He looks pasty-faced white right, you know the cheeks in the face done everything they could to alter that photo for a reason Yep, the new term is dark skin or white. That's the new term Because we're contracting this work out now. Is that what we're doing? There's like a writer's script, a Hollywood writer's script going on now. I think the government's suffering from it too. Okay, what guys? We're at the top. Craig from Forbidden Knowledge is coming up next. Craig has nuclear, biological, and chemical technology defense. materials on hand and he also has copper rounds. Take time, find out more, ask questions, don't just sit and listen. Ask questions and we are going to get out of the U.S. Constitution.

We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the land of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country. deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for what 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 eat God-given right. And pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free. But we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants 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'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Poor time, Art Carkey. One day closer victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines. In occupied territories, southwest, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. And we're on satellite. I say hi to our merchant-grade operators out there. We're a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States, including the Channel 31 CB base station group. I'm going to be donating another transceiver to them shortly. Nice little unit, very powerful, odd man out. So I think we can send it out to the network. So it'll be going somewhere where it'll be ready for what's coming. And again, Hopefully we can mate it up with a few other like machines. We always like to put the backup machine an identical piece of equipment to whatever is the primary. That way if it goes down, you just unplug, plug in, and you're on the road again. Anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 24th of May. This is the 15th year of Open Obvious and In Your Face. Sabian, socialist and Soviet socialist occupation. of America with a K2023 older calendar, 2023 battle for the Republic, the dance of sword. And interestingly enough, I want to say thanks to the article, forgive me the interestingly enough, the one of the cops who beat down horrifically, one of the female protesters that went to Washington on January 6th, apparently was riding around town. with the head of Antifa the year and a half before, what, a year before. Only the year earlier during the rape, pillage and burn session. And apparently they were swapping spit and joined at the hip. But that's not a surprise. After all, we understand the problem with Washington anyway, right? But here's something interesting is take a look at the picture of this cop. If you get a chance, Darr has that I think in hand. Forgive me, I don't have it right in my fingertips. But if you can if you pay attention look at the cop that had the flag laid out In front of the White House, and he's also the one that picked up the flag Okay, I remember he talked about a drop. You know it's like you know basically a drop gun only in this case a drop flag Well, take a look at the face, you know, the pictures, the photographs of the individual in the department, and then take a look at the picture of the person that's in the middle of the image at that truck scene. Now, he's not the only cop. It wouldn't be just one cop. There wasn't. There were many different ones there. But it's interesting who it was that was collecting the orgy of, well, it wasn't even an orgy of evidence. paltry pieces of planted whatever as part of the script. Okay. And it looks like the same person, which I think is rather fascinating, but not really because I've told you the click of dirty birds. If it's a state police, there's always a murder death kill squad and the state police to kill off competition or get rid of good cops. This is true of Michigan State Police. Ohio doesn't make any difference. There's a click in there. In prisons, they have the same, they have a handful of guards whose job it is to beat prisoners to death. And they're murderers, okay? So we understand and we know what we're looking for. And the same is true with the parasites and the turds that make up the District of Criminals, Washington, D.C., which is why, like I said, it's a non-productive location. We don't have any interest in it. But when the time comes, it's some place that it isn't going to be doing what it's getting away with right now down the road. That's not an if, that's just a when everybody in the country is going to be ready. Well, they are ready to say enough. So we'll see how it kicks off with the other side trying to perpetrate whatever they're going to. But you're going to see the same little click cast of characters show up over and over and over and over again. because the spit swappers have to, you know, there's only so many people we can count on to be the real dirty worst of the worst. And it's not that great a number, not as big as you'd think. That's why they had to send the parasites out from Washington to go out and put a fire into the ass of the outer area FBI agents for all the skullduggery they've been doing. They've got this faction of perverts, queers, petals, out of Washington who are sent out from that particular element of their state worshipers. They're occultists, we know what they are. Everybody understands where they come from. And they go out, and of course their idea is to thug up and impose their will upon the others to do the dirty deeds that are demanded from Washington. Eventually going out doesn't mean that they'll come back because even the other people that are of you know Let's just say from the same business are getting fed up with what they're seeing Only because it makes it very uncomfortable for them when they have to deal with you know regular people so as it is again Guns and gadgets has a bunch of different pieces over the last day You want to go watch them take the time share them plug them in and let people know I also give it a thumbs up every video that they post over there that he post Jared posts over there I guess he's still selling off the old house, but he's abandoned, you know the Soviet East block, you know East Coast and is pretty well settled in I think he's got everything moved out there cleared as far as everything out of the state where they came from and So he's looking he's looking better. There's a couple different people. I've noticed have done the same thing And whether or not they know it, I think what they need to do is go back and look at their own videos and how they looked and to be a body wise, body expression, you know, reading the body language, totally different attitude now. Why? Because they're out of the danger zone. It's still dangerous everywhere in the country, but there are some places that are far more dangerous to be in. And in many, many cases, these individuals who have spoken up were there. Now, they're not. And you can definitely see muscle tension has disappeared. Nothing like it was, which is a good thing. Of course, it's good for your health, by the way. Needless to say, well, if we just let the enemy get away whatever they want, it's bad for your health across the board, and you won't live long enough to tell anybody about anything. So we need to be prepared to deal with it by being willing to get in the fight when the time comes, and deal with the problem as it appears. and assist our friends and allies in the process of meting out the energy necessary to subdue the aggressor trying to operate in such unlawful and illegal fashion. So we'll work on that. A couple things also here real quick. I mentioned Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto State Armory.com, Palmetto State Armory.com, Palmetto State Armory.com, it's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 24th of May. So guess what? Over at Palmetto, they have some really cool deals on the dagger pistol, different parts, combinations, and even the packages. Shelby pointed out the dagger pistol package, 10 mags, carry case, the pistol, 399 for a new handgun. There are a few other weapons out there right now that are showing up on the scope. One of them, it's interesting, for some reason, and again, I don't know, this is kind of an old gun now, Ruger P-89s cropping up in a bunch of different places. And it's stated that they are police trade-ins. Now, the P-89 is the oldest of the new line of Rugers. Remember, there's the 90 series, 89, then the 90, 90, whatever. I'm trying to think how many different shorty and stubby and chubby models. Anyway, Ruger, when they came out with this gun, this was the gun to go to during that window of time, even though Glock was actually already on the market. And it's interesting that these guns are supposed to be present trade-ins. They were in somebody's department on a large scale. Maybe they were Israeli because the Israelis Ruger sold a lot of stuff to the Israelis. Okay, wouldn't sell it to your me Of course, it would sell the p89 but The interesting thing is is that these guns all? Look to be in very good condition some may be excellent They do has you know, and of course they're rated and they charge accordingly for them but for less than three hundred dollars a gun They're actually an early weapon in the Ruger line for the new family of firearms that they came up with. So they're collectible now. We don't think about that, but it's been a few decades since these guns came out. However, the nice thing is that most all the Ruger mags for three, four different weapons changes, the mags stayed the same. That was a very smart move on their part. If you look with the police trade-in on like Botash, you will find The Ruger mag's available for under $10, in fact about $8 to $6 a piece depending on how many you're willing to buy. And this makes the gun a pretty decent solution. You'll notice it has by, especially everybody's used to more and more of the boxy look, it has more of a stylized look to the front of the weapon with the slide and of course how it contours into the frame. Interesting, you know, now we didn't think about it then, but if you look at the progressive comparative study of what's been, you know, now considered to be politically correct in the gun world, the Ruger definitely stands out. Now, there's a few things that Ruger did that were because of suggestions and they actually roll over from everybody, guys, when we used to buy, if you wanted to go to a large magazine capacity pistol in a 9mm or anything, there's only two places you could go. For the longest time it was Browning high power or nothing. Okay, the hypo was it. Now there were some other military guns that you would never see that overlap with the high power, but you know like the Stenkin out of Russia. I mentioned it many times. There's actually somebody making a copy. Again, for some reason, came out of nowhere. I mentioned it the other day, but the Stenkin was a KGB slash interior police machine pistol. It looks like a standard magazine in the pistol grip handgun, but it was a select fire weapon, okay? Now, the skin can never be available, but the high power was. Then finally Smith and Wesson came out with a Model 59. Now all of a sudden you had a modern gun, double action, single and double action, the ability to choose, and lightweight. Remember, it was an alloy frame, that was the big thing. Airweight frames at that time were really coming into their own. Llama, Star, Smith and Wesson, Ruger, everybody had something in an airweight. And interestingly enough, these guns came out in force all at once, but not all of them were staggered mag. They were straight inline mags. In fact, the Smith & Wesson Model 39 came out first during the Vietnam War. That's a straight inline eight shot magazine. Typically you see like the Astro or the P-38 or whatever else. So now, the next big jump is where you start to see Ruger and One or two other companies, Smith already mentioned, start to introduce large capacity magazine firearms. Well, the big jump for Ruger was the P89. And it really took off well. A lot of people carried them extensively and still do. I know there's certain units here in Michigan that they have a ton of them. Not only did they buy the one for themselves, but they started buying up what was laying around in Ohio or Indiana or Michigan. And I think they probably have the lion's share because you really don't see these guns pop out and there were a large number of them made. Just making me wonder about how these showed up all of a sudden out of the blue, which I suspect possibly. I haven't seen the stampings, but I suspect this latest waiver is really surplus or probably Israeli tactical reserve is what they were. There's some Jericho's coming out at the same time. Usually when you see a pulse of these guns, they come from the same source. So, we'll see what happens again for under $300, not bad. Ruger mags are still readily available, especially for those models. There's, in fact, quite a pile of them laying around if you know where to look and if you just keep searching. And always look at Botash because Botash has all kinds of stuff they don't even put on the webpage. You really need to call the store. I understand. Thanks to our listeners. Appreciate that. Yeah, none of these companies put everything that they have. If you're looking for something in particular, it behooves you typically to call rather than just assume, well, it's not on the web page, I'm gonna go somewhere else. Don't do that. You need to do a little more research. You'll find you might be very happy with the end result. Another thing about the Rugers is plenty of nylon leather, you know, nylon carrying holsters, magazine pouches are no big deal, pretty much standard. You can make a number of different mag pouches work, or they already do work for it. Spare parts, Ruger still provides full spare parts inventory for pretty much any gun that they produced. I mean, really, it's interesting that I would say the P89 is one of those guns where you certainly should buy firing pin extractor, ejector, pins, small springs, whatever. If you're counting on just keeping it around or making it work while the system still functions, I wouldn't. I'd be ready for whatever is coming up. And the Ruger is a decent firearm. It's a good weapon. It's one of those things where, again, if you do catch it for a good price, grab it. I'd snag it. Just out of policy. A lot of people do have quite a collection of nines or forties. By the way, no, I don't believe that they made the P89 and 40 caliber, but you can slight me the microphone if I'm wrong. I'm pretty sure they stayed with 9 millimeter and that's where they stuck, which is really okay. Now, if there's a later 89 I missed, I mean, in other words, last production and maybe they did start to spread out, then that would be interesting, but that's not likely. Another thing about these is, again, Military models do have the lanyard ring. That's one of the indicators and while they don't necessarily have to be Israeli, Ruger also sold a lot of guns to South America, just like they did the GB Mini 14. So, that might be an indicator also if they do have the built-in factory lanyard ring. And it's the pronounced one. There's a casual stamped into the grip system that the Ruger came up with. I don't know if you've seen it, but it was out there. We're talking about pronounced as in very much like the USM 1911 Land Your Ring retainer. Okay, the double stud pin system that they had. They are a good gun and I'd carry the heartbeat. I wouldn't think twice about it because again, it's it works doesn't have to be the fanciest gun in the inventory, but it works and that's Kind of a nice thing the other thing about Ruger is Again, they do have a couple of other guns that they're reinventing rumor has it I guess maybe it's already been done that the Ruger 44 carbine if it's not I think it was at the last trade show was I think it was. It wasn't the shots show. So it's probably the NRA show is what I'm thinking. But there were comments that the Ruger semi-automatic carbine looks like a big Ruger 10-22 on steroids. We were very popular when I was young. A lot of people had them because they had the 44 Smith & Wesson Model 29 and 44 Magnum. But also, the rules that they're going to be in a couple of the calibers. Now, that wouldn't be hard, and it would be a cool thing, but I don't know what calibers, what chain brings are going to go with yet. Now, 44 mag is still pretty common out there. In fact, I'd have to say that it is one of the more common rounds I'm running into at estate sales and yard sales and people running into stuff just randomly. It would behoove you to kind of pay attention if you run into a .44 Magnum, just put it on the shelf and just keep collecting brass and loaded ammo because it is out there. The people from that period that picked up those weapons are retiring or, you know, scaling down or passing away and the stuff is showing up. So it definitely, this window of time would be cool for the .44 Magnum. Go ahead. Yeah, that's a text mark. On that P-89, was that the very first variation of that pistol? Was there a P-85? I'm trying to remember. Well, the P-85, yeah, the P-85 was out there. P-85, P-89, P-90, P-85, P-89, and it wasn't a 99. It might have been an 85. You know, you're right. The 85 with that. Okay, now I believe it was the 85. Oh, this is not good. It was the 85 that had issues with the safety lock. I don't know if you remember that. And it was the P85 when they came up with it. There was something that happened with a... People were stupid because it does have the safety block system. and they assumed that it worked, or apparently they should have anyway, that it worked. That would be a route sound thing. It was built, but there were a series of accidental discharges with the safety on. And Ruger very quickly fixed it, but it created a bit of a, you know how that is. It colored the weapon after it got into production, which meant that they immediately, to settle the issue, went to the later production models very, very quickly. Now, nobody that I know of had a problem with that. In fact, the earliest model of the P85, P85 UMF or something like that, the very first model that came out, people scarfed those up very quickly, but they wanted to be in a bigger production run because of the issues they had with the design. And even if they fixed it, it didn't make any difference. The Ruger immediately went to the next pistol in line to scrub it. In other words, you eliminate the blem. And so, yeah, and by the way, magazines are all the same for those guns. They should be interchangeable from one to the next. So, real easy to reference this. Go to any of the gun digests and you can track it, you know, you walk it through. Now, the one thing about the P85, I think, oh, what was it about the barrels? There was something else about the barrels too, not a flaw. But as I recall, when they came up with the barrels, they actually did some in titanium. And I recall that was the first time for Ruger by the way, just like stainless was a big deal. They did a titanium barrel and limited production because the gun faded quickly to the next model. They apparently while they experimented with it probably was price and production. They didn't really stick with it or whatever little they did. They just said now we'll just go with stainless or standard carbon whichever way you're going to go. But several companies in that little window of time with that exact particular gun were experimenting with titanium. And remember Smith and Wesson here not too long ago did the same again in another wave of that with by making an all titanium revolver. I think there's two of them that are out there. So that was its claim to fame and more infamy. Good gun. I mean everybody liked it, but it was quickly overshadowed by the primary model. Anything else? Go ahead, please. Oh yeah, I just brought it up because I remember, I don't remember, in the movie Desperado with Antonio Banderas, I remember... Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah, I couldn't remember. There were 89s or 85s, but they had the stainless slide and... He just shot everybody up with them. Like I said, I'm grabbing everything that's DVD that somebody's crazy enough to get rid of because you know if everything goes to Helen Hankert every once in a while I'll be able to turn some special power on get the juice flowing and watch a movie because that we won't be able to just binge like we do now guys and just think about that Think ahead. Well, one of the other things too is Now at the time Ruger was gonna come up with another when they did the p85 and into the p89 They were going to come up with something like the Caltech I just mentioned in the two-hour block, but it never came about. I don't know why, because you had the camp carbine at that time, remember the Marlin, which is a really good idea. The camp carbine came in 45 and used the 45 ACP mag. The 9mm could take a number of different high-capacity mags and function with them. which was really cool. And then they discontinued it. And about the time that they discontinued is about the time that Ruger was talking about doing a similar, scallopedized camp carbine, which would have looked more like the Kel-Tec 9. You know, a little Kel-Tec 9 millimeter takes a, you know, it's a folding stock, it takes the standard pistol mags, and it's really a lightweight weapon. But Ruger, I think himself killed that project. And other than the fact that he was an anti-tech weapon for the people kind of guy. If it was something that was tech and it was a larger capacity mag, more sophisticated, Ruger, the owner, would do everything he could to make sure the population didn't see that. Just like his 30 round magazines for the Mini-14. He'd sell it to any tin pot dictator anywhere on the planet, but he wouldn't sell the 30-round mag to the American people for the Mini-14. Until later on when he passed away and then now Ruger's selling everything again. Well, finally. But it would have been kind of neat. It would have been a good combination. The saddle rifle and a pistol combo. Go ahead. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. Bill Ruger, the best thing he ever did for his company because he was told that... Yeah, and really big about it probably held the mini 14 back by suit because how many people would have gotten into the mini 14? Yes, there were 30 round magazines available. I'm sure a lot Well again what happened is after mark once again to a certain point after market could build them And it's always nice to have factory Ruger, but you know at least you could get them after a while the big thing here again is the GB model, which really is minimal cosmetics, but the GB model was any place where people could make the copycat part they did. So even though Ruger wouldn't sell you a GB Mini, you could put basically a GB Mini 14 together yourself. And you could also change out the barrel, even though you had a carbon barrel, you could switch over to stainless. That wasn't a big deal because they made all stainless many 14 so it'd be better off just buying all stainless and be done with it but Yeah, Ruger did a lot to retard and in fact lose Significant sales which happened anyway we in fact what it did is it confirmed the ar-15? Because when you couldn't give Rugers were cheaper not by much, but Rugers were cheaper that you keep basically in we the math formula work like this if I had an ar-15 I could buy 1 1⁄2 to 1 3⁄4 mini 14s for the price of 1 AR-15, but I could buy anywhere from 4 to almost 5 Bushmaster designed rifles in 5.56. So it was a matter of, well, how many people do you have to outfit and, you know, how do you feel about an odd man out rifle? The Bushmaster rifles that were made back during that period were excellent firearms. I don't care what anybody says. We beat the hell out of them. But the thing is that the mini, if he had let up on that, he'd have given the AR-15 a bigger run for the money. And he would have taken a big chunk of the market because a lot of the reasons is guys at the time everybody that was experienced liked the M1A slash the M14. So being able to get hold of a light rifle in the M14 configured, you know, basically configured design Means that if you were getting older, see I've told you about this before, when you get older you can't carry as much. Well hell, all of a sudden you got the benefits and the experience of the M1A and you got a mini version, a scaled down version. So there was little or no real turnaround time to learning about the weapon. And it wasn't much more comfortable, less cumbersome weapon to carry for a lot of the utility carbine work you might want to do. Today everybody's grown up with the AR-15, so they're all used to that. Go ahead. Yeah, everybody remembers the A-team and they used the mini 14 except the first season they were using in 16 and all subsequent seasons that used the mini and it makes sense that they would switch the mini because these guys were Outlaws and they had to you know conceal the weapon and having a side-building stock that makes it a shorter profile of all makes sense for the same reason that IRA the AR-18 more than the M16 because you can have a side fold and it feels a lot easier. Yep, exactly. And again, the interesting thing about it is that everything you could possibly want to do with the Mini-14 you could. Poly stocks were available, folding stocks of different types, there were four or five different patterns that were actually all pretty successful. One of them was basically a copy of the Valmé stock. It was made by a company out of Tennessee. And the Velmae folding stocks are reversed triangles of metal that wear into each other so you never swap. That's the one cool thing about a positive wear stock lock like that is it's a push away. It's easy to disconnect. But as the stock gets older, unlike most other folders where they get a little weeb-a-wobbly, the positive erosion of the metal on metal means that you always get a positive lock and the stock will be secure. It isn't going to vary. It's the same theory with how they built the AK-47 Magazine tab. You can't really, no matter what, how tired the magazine is, it will lock into the magazine well by the nature of how the magazine cab is designed. Even as it wears out, it will still lock positive in place. Even because that little cab that you disconnect and release the mag will lock to whatever harbor narrow or however tired that little cab is. But it secures it up into the magazine while where it belongs. The other thing about the MINI is, again, the government did experiment with it. Some people, you know, argue, oh, nobody had any interest in it. During the time when the MINI 14 came out, there were six or seven other weapons that were being looked at, not as replacements for the AR-15, but as supplemental firearms for other applications, and one of them was for a survival rifle. And again, the MINI came into the fray almost at a perfect time because all the bugs, what few issues they had with MINI 14, and they were not operating issues. Remember, they were just parts issues. Once they changed the design slightly, then all of the possibility of small parts missing was eradicated and the gun was at its peak when the, I think it was the Air Force, tested it first. And you got a good review, which is somebody slid a bigger envelope onto the table and so they bought a foreign contract gun. In fact, the argument was that they were going to go to the Mini as an aircraft gun in the same way that they eventually went to the MP5. Of course, the MP5 that most encourage is a pistol version, the tiny, tiny version. But the Mini 14, shorter barrel, folding stock just like you said. And stainless steel would have been a good solution for especially naval aviators because stainless is still going to be much more reliable in a saltwater environment. That's the most common thing to get hit you is if you're using carbon steel weapons, you have to be religious about maintenance in a saltwater, salt air environment, guys. And always remember this because you may end up near the coast at some time. But stainless is slightly more forgiving you still want to do everything you do with the carbon steel gun But it's not going to fail you in the same way with you know random adhesion because of oxidation which which happens a lot so Otherwise if you've got a mini 14 see we're convincing you not to sell it besides if you want an air 15 keep the mini 14 and buy an air 15 How's that though? See how that works remember guns are for buying not for selling So do not get rid of your Mini-14. Now another thing on that note, and I'll remind you, I've repeated this a million times, but you may have a very early model, earliest first model Mini-14. If you do a complete maintenance overhaul on the gun, you take it all apart. You put it back together and all of a sudden it doesn't operate. The gas system doesn't work. The most common mistake made, I think it's the 180 or 179 series, These rifles, if you look at the gas system, where the gas diverter port is, they created a unique little donut ring replacement part. Now the logic behind this is that carbon moisture, because of carbon, would build up and break down the seal, that jump seal between the rounded barrel and the gas deflector vent that is in the front hand guard ring. Well, what happens, people take the gun apart because they wanted to thoroughly clean it, didn't realize that little ring was there. Ruger was very good about supplying gobs of them to anybody who lost them. But the next model, one of the first things that Ruger changed is they created a permanently machined ring on the detachable front sling swivel slash stock ring so that it couldn't get lost. But if you have any of the very early Mini-14s guys inherit them, you're finding them at estate sales. It was a Mini-14 that was a first model at one of the estate sales here down the road and went for a chunk of change. But, uh, that particular gun is one of the parts you would want to acquire because it is not standard. Would be those gas check slash gas seal rings. They're only about half the width of a pencil. They're incredibly small. The girth of the diameter of the little donut, as far as the individual material, is maybe half the width of a pencil lead. So, they're easily lost and they are something that you wouldn't easily reproduce. So, if you do have one of those particular Mini-14s, first model to second model, they, like I said, they completely re-engineered that part. Ruger was good, even though we've complained about Mr. Ruger. The Ruger design group was very good about Thomas Edison-ing whatever they were working on. If something went sideways, they immediately looked at how to change it because they wanted to simplify the design. And like I said, that's what brought it into the contract issue when in the 70s they actually were looking at the Mini-14 and seriously, as a security weapon or a weapon for a number of different projects, probably also clandestine operations simply because it would be a nondescript firearm. You'd blame it on anybody because it wasn't really a standard issue. But the stainless steel model actually held its own quite well. And at the period of time, not many people were working stainless. Remember that Smith and Wesson, AMT, AMT really was the head of Smith. And then Ruger were the only three you could go to for stainless for the longest time. Smith was way ahead of everybody when it came to their revolvers, Model 65, Model 66. They of course did their L frame which was a disaster, but hey, it worked. But they had issues with cracks and fractures on certain frames because they I don't know, maybe it was computer design as opposed to trial and error test and failure, which is something they didn't do. And so when they got into production, several departments bought the old frame and had issues with it very, very quickly. Now, again, they fixed the problem. But once you have a rumor about a firearm in the rumor mill, it may, you almost have to wait until everybody dies out that knows anything about it. Other than that, everybody always go, oh, it's one of those. I know about that. Even if they don't really know about that, it's what they've heard about it, you see. And that's why it puts a stigma on the firearm. It's like the Carcano, okay? Now, everybody has to have a Carcano. Guys, do you know how many years I've talked about the Carcano and everything you're hearing now? I know it's a Mark told you, so I know that. But it's true. The Carcano is incredibly simple. It's a great design to give to somebody because you can't really screw it up, okay? And it was simple, reliable, it worked. If you go watch, actually, what is it, Forgotten Weapons, okay, go watch Forgotten Weapons. He did an entire video about how the Carcama was possibly the best firearm built during World War II in terms of a bolt-action rifle. for the Model M, Model 1939. The M 1938, 1938, 1939. Remember the, it's a 6.5, then it's a 7.35. They dumped the 7.35 and stuck with a 6.5. What's interesting is now everybody wants a Carcano. Why? Well, because it's the only affordable surplus out there anymore, hardly. And even then, you know, we used to pay dollars, not tens of dollars. I could buy, I bought Like everything else in surplus, you know, I bought those are those for a penny apiece Well, it is true. Yeah, car canos were like pleased to buy my rifle as opposed to well It's a Lee infield. I'm gonna blow my blood collectors. It's a mark to see a model six asterisk with an Irish, you know foregrip on it blah blah blah blah blah. Okay The car conno, it's it's a car conno. Yeah, look at our call. They're horrible But now it's the only gun out there that you're gonna see for a while because again, it's coming out of Ethiopia in such places I will point out if you haven't seen the videos from Ukraine Let's see we got enough time There's an interesting series of videos that have been done there's two or three different ones on the salt mine that the Wagner group recently liberated. Yes, these salt mines in Russia. No in this case. It's a salt mine in Ukraine Well, this salt mine, played out salt mine, is an arsenal. And they were down in the dungeons. They went down into the depths. It is a massive, massive inventory. And they've already taken a bunch of stuff out, the Ukrainian army did. And it is still a vast, massive collection of arms. But what is really interesting about this these videos is they went down there Wagner groups down here fact the guy who runs the Wagner Russian Unconventional forces or regular forces unit He's down there actually looking at some of these things they had they pride open a box and they still have land lease American-made M1 a one Thompson still in the oil paper they have 1928 a one all that leaves still in the oil paper. They've got maximum machine guns look like they just came off the factory production line. And all this stuff is down there. It's like, well, why is it down there rather than being up where it should have been in the fight? Interestingly enough, initially, the forces that were fighting to save their lives from the Western Ukrainian police state Had control of the location, obviously picked a bunch of the stuff out of there, but not anywhere near what was there. During the conflict or progressive conflict, the Ukrainian government got back hold of the site. Well, in the last few weeks or whatever, the Wagner group, the Russians, have now taken control of the location. So there's more than one video on the subject. But the area is vast and it gives you a good feel of what I've tried Uncle Mark could try to explain to you What you see there is the kind of equipment that people are privately in possession of in mass quantities here It's vast but there's that gives you a good representation of some of the things that I know I've personally seen So it's again an interesting collection They were using it as a depot for refurbishing and doing maintenance on damaged battlefield pickup firearms. I've told you about doing this before. Well, they were doing it. Recovering all the weapons that they could, taking them to one site, disassembling, reassembling, redirecting, you know, whatever you can do. Scavenge the parts that work. Just leave the others there. If you have to, break out the hammer and make them work. However, the whole place is so full of arms. It's like they have PEPI-S submachine guns. They have PEPI-S 41s, PEPI-S 43s, DP machine guns, RPDs, SKSs. I mean, all these are lethal weapons. So it's ludicrous. I don't know whoever it is on either side. I don't care. If somebody can get their act together and move fast enough because the stuff should have been pulled out, should have been reconfigured and tactically dispersed. But instead it was all in one big pile, so all that's happened is that this big pile has gone back and forth between one side or the other without ever being properly applied. But when you figure that they're stealing billions of dollars, hundreds of billions from the American people, they didn't care. They weren't even worried about it. They weren't really fighting the war. They just had money launderers, much stuff as they could before they have to unask the country. That's what they're doing. So... Go ahead, Tex-Max. Yeah. Hey, to go back to a pistol having a little bit of a modern pistol having a bad stigma on it right now, it's the SIG PT-20 that has supposedly accidentally gone off for some reason, you know. And this is even after the recall, after the, you know, the drop test deal where they sent a bunch of them back and The something about when it was dropped it would go off and on the striker fire and it we're still they're still having some and there's a lot of stigma on them, but they're still selling them a lot of Yeah, that's what's kind of interesting to me is like you on the one hand and that's kind of rare, too But but let me point something out. You know what's selling that is the name Let me give an example and you know you've heard the program I've talked about this many times guys Glock had a whole series of failures So in fact, they want everybody to forget about this, but there was an extensive article in guns and ammo About all of the Glock failures that happened simultaneously and that's been decades ago, right? Well, they still sell Glocks don't they Tex-Mex and guys every Glock made failed 9mm, 40 caliber, 357 and 45 ACP. And what was interesting is I know personally about the 45 ACP ones, or at least one of them because it was one of the people I personally know. And our policy, and I will say this, I need to talk about this on Weapons Wednesday. Even if you buy a brand new gun out of the box, You do not load it put it to your face line up the sights and fire ever I promise me that you will think to do a simple operations test What typically we do is you bring the weapon you load the weapon up? Put a glove on just to be safe And I'm serious about this put a glove on a leather glove something that's armored okay if you can Put the glove on, take the gun, angle it off to the side, aim into a sandbag pile or whatever and just dump. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, empty. Dump a magazine slowly, but you know, but then you could keep the bullets where they're safe, put them into a sandbag, put them into a bucket, whatever you're going to do. And watch the weapon. Don't worry about where it hits. Watch the weapon. Make sure the bullets are going where you're planning on putting them. That's why it's good to shoot into an impact area at close range. Watch the weapon. And then, after you're satisfied that you pulled the trigger and the gun didn't rattle apart, do a quick inspection. Load another magazine if you haven't already. Now take the weapon and bring it up. Line up the sights and look to see how it prints. Now let me give you an example the gun will the guy that I know I went to college with him actually Had one of the 45 blocks. Okay, brand-new one as a matter of fact just came out Loads it up and he did exactly the opposite. He load the gun up He put it up to his face lined up the sights, you know, he's put it extended his arm and he goes What am I thinking about so he turned his hand sideways and he pulled the trigger What happened next? Well, his hand jerked and he didn't realize it because what he did is right, he kept the arm extended. He angled the gun away from it at 45, aiming down into the impact area, which was 25 feet away. Pulled the trigger and his hand jerked and a guy next to him go, whoa! What happened? The slide went right past his hand, blew right past him, went up to his head and stuck in his head. The front of the frame blew out and what he had left was the frame itself with the part of the trigger guard and the magazine. What happened? We don't know. What's interesting is it happened all over the country simultaneously within a very short window and it was so dramatic that Guns N Ammo did an article on it and the 45 you see in there is from Michigan. There were two 45s that failed. two Glock .45s. Okay? Now, as soon as they called the store, the store called Glock, Glock called back within less than two, almost a little under three hours actually, about three hours, and they wanted that gun right now. And he goes, well, what do you mean you want that? Okay, fine. I'm gonna get my gun back? Yes, sir. I'm gonna get a replacement, right? Well, they wouldn't answer. So, anyway, yes, they did. They sent it back, and they would not acknowledge what happened. I suspected one of two things. just a bad idea with some metallurgical changes or industrial sabotage. And at the time when this happened Glock was up and coming. And so what I think happened, I lean towards industrial espionage, industrial sabotage, it is not unheard of. And the firearms market overseas is taken a lot more seriously even than it is here because it's a very narrow market. That's why with this issue with With the pistol that's having a few problems right now hit hit hit People are kind of ignoring it because they like to predict they like the product line and they like the product itself and very rarely just is that There's a mechanical failure or a suspected mechanical failure with rumorization Very seldom does a certain weapon survive that but in this case they have I'm not talking about the company. The company will get through it. But the design itself usually it's faded very quickly. The P-18 is still one you know I always joke about because Morton Grove, Illinois and it was a beautiful, I mean it's a beautiful idea. The 18 shot stainless, all stainless steel semi-automatic pistol. made in Illinois. In fact, Morton Grove is famous for being the place that wanted to ban all the guns just like the other Jewish-run places that wants to ban all the guns now in Illinois. It's always a Jewish enclave that does it in Illinois. And what's fascinating about this is, again, the P-18, it couldn't survive the caterwauling by everybody because of the problems they had with it. It was a good idea, but it was put together too fast, and they didn't think about focusing on fit and finish and slowing down a bit. They tried to keep up with the demand rather than maintaining standards. And so the weapon just disappeared to the point where I think now the P-18 is actually quite collectible in terms of, you know, as a unique American-made firearm. By the way, Steyer made a copy of it and made it flawless. Functions like a Singer sewing machine. And they made it carbon steel. And they made it stainless. I don't know how many stainless ones they made, but only made it carbon steel. Same pistol, designed top to bottom. So anyway, one of the interesting things here again is with what we are seeing on the horizon, we talked about Ruger and all the rest, every one of these gun companies, even with particular models that are popular, the only one I would say that is not an issue like this is the 1911. It's one of the rare guns and most AR-15s, the core parts are all interchangeable no matter what. Well, the 1911 is the same way. all the core critical parts, you got 110 years worth of spare parts laying around on the planet somewhere because the design has been religiously maintained. Now with other weapons that's not been the case. Just like I said with the Mini-14 most of it's pretty much the same but there are critical small parts that you always need to, that's why you need to go through your manuals Or if you don't have a manual, go to numerous, you know, gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp. And they have breakdowns of pretty much every firearm that they sell parts for. And the advantage of that is you can kind of go through that little parts inventory, the schematic. You want to go through the diagram. And take a look and see if you're familiar with all the parts that you see there. Because on the Mini-14, if you don't have that little donut gas check, you have a manually operated, very sophisticated, and heavily machined rifle. That's just all there is to it. Now, not all Mini-14s, all other Mini-14s after the first production run will be different. And all pretty much interchangeable. Rest of the parts on that earlier Mini-14 are still pretty much interchangeable with the primary design today. And there have been tweaking, so they have tweaked that gun. Now the 1911, yeah, there's cosmetic tweaks, but the core components, you can strip one gun, put everything on the other, she works. Top to bottom, all the critical working components have never changed. In fact, even earlier idea components are still designed so that they were replaced by later idea components. But where all the fit and contact takes place, they're all identical. They're all the same. That's a big advantage. And that's one of the reasons certain firearms are really, really, really useful. The AR-15 is like that because it's a Lego gun. And all the critical key components have to match. We don't have that with all the A-Cades. Of course, we do have variants on the Mini 14 or the Free-to-Me Air 15. You've got piston, you know, static piston drivers, all kinds of stuff, as opposed to the Impinched Gas System. That is a significant change, but they're in the minority and less worrisome. In fact, easily, easily understood and, you know, dealt with when the time comes anyway. Another thing here real quick, small springs, pins and whatever, there's a bunch of package deals at Center for Systems dot com and Botash. In fact, Botash has a spring deal over in the clearance section right now. You're going to have to go look at it, pins and springs. Go check it out. I think it's 1995. And before we go, also for you guys, if you were using multi-scam, I mean multi-cam, or any of the variations, who cares which one it is anymore? There's so many variations that are done by the government, who cares? As long as it's close. But over there they have Scorpion, multi-cam, tops and bottoms, $20 apiece. The tops run up to size 3x at least. There may be some 5x left. So if you're one of those 7 foot 2 inch tall refrigerator guys, not overweight, just big, then this is a chance to get some decent clothing for very little money. I already got a couple of them myself, you know, in other sizes, but they have been running out. They're just, they're, this is a clearance deal. It's the Scorpion brand, whatever, blah, blah, blah. Also a couple other tactical shirts, but the AR-15 spring package is also in that clearance section at bowtash.com. If you haven't picked up a spare, if you make up a spare kit, you got AR-15, shame on you. There's no reason. It's highly affordable. And even if you just had one set, remember not everything necessarily needs to be changed, but if you lose one part, you're not gonna be very happy. And the only problem with the AR-15 is there are a lot of piddly, tiddly, tiny little parts, okay? And they will require replacement eventually. So take advantage of that now while you can, and there are a bunch of deals. Also, Botech had bundle deals on AR-15 small parts. Springs, pins, etc. 12 of this, 20 of that, whatever. They'll pop up when you go to the clearance section on the spring package. Scroll down below. You'll see the other stuff that pops up. Go see if that's worth your money. If you do not have it, you might want to deal with it. And we are at the top. It's Weapons Wednesday. It's trying to get dark outside. I got a poor little turtle. We call him Stumpy. Found him in the road. Somethin' got his left paw and took it right off. but it's been healed up or whatever. So I've got an orphan turtle I gotta decide what to do with here. We'll take care of him. One way or another, we got plenty of ponds. And it looks like he's been taking care of himself already. If any of you have any questions, feel free to give us an email at liberty at provide.net. Liberty at provide.net. That's a liberty at provide. And I'm looking at one of the air 15 spring kits right here. Well, I really got my money's worth for that one. Definitely.
