He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the like 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 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 given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm and keep our country. put men of God in jail harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn and your daughters visit so their children and your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars can you regain the freedom 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? Both 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 bright. As I awoke he vanished in the mist for once he came. His words were true, we are free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now his tyrants trampled each god-given right. We only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? And gentlemen, this is the first hour of the Intelligence Report, I'm Mark Carkey. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, east, northeast, south, and west. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. And we're on the satellite, we want to say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there, no matter what body of water you are presently resting on and working on. Both analog and digital, we are on a myriad of other communications technologies to include AM and FM microstations, AM and FM conventional stations, CBE base stations, and UltraNet hallmark and golden spike technologies east and west of the Mississippi, along with Alaska. And it is Wednesdays, Weapons Wednesday. It is the 26th of March. It is the 17th year of Obanavius, an anger face. Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with the K. 2025 older calendar. 2025 Battle for the Republic book. The Winter War. But almost, almost at the very end of that. So chilly out there. Beautiful blue sky. The solar chargers are doing everything they can. Got a bunch of new solar lights I'm testing that just I'm going to let you know about these once I think they're worth the effort, but I'll probably just talk about them in a little bit. It's And another part that's critical, which I would highly recommend you get spares of, just as we've talked about with many of the other bolt carrier and other critical parts like the extractor, ejector, firing pin, NBS AR-15 firing pin retaining pin. This is the cotter style. 95 cents apiece. Again, NBS AR-15, AR-15, firing pin retaining pin cotter style. This is that Little piece that's jammed in sideways there, you see that little round semi-circle, crescent circle of metal. Yeah, the pin, remember retainer? Guess what? You lose those. It's one of the parts if you were in the military years ago. You know, it used to be in Article 15, if you get anything past basic strip for maintenance and cleaning. Do you remember those heavy days way back when? Like what, almost 50 years ago now? This is the year 2025, I can say that, 50 years ago. Anyway, it used to be in Article 15 if you took the weapon down and be at a certain point, but the bolt carrier is supposed to tear down completely. And that little pin, easily lost. So it should be in your carry kit with your small pieces and parts that you keep on board that go out within the field when the tie comes. And for $0.95 a piece of sex, it's a pretty good price for that part. The big thing here again is these are all at AR15 or AR15. That's AR number one, numeral one, numeral five. AR15discount.com, AR15discounts.com. And it's NBS Mill Spec AR15 Carbine Buffer Spring. There's a whole bunch of deals for today. $0.95 a piece for that and NBS AR-15 Firing Pin Retaining Pin Cotter Style, $0.95. Also, they do have some pretty good combo items over there at AR-15Discounts.com. This week, I don't know how long they're going to last, but definitely they're something that should be on your list to check out. We're going to be playing at guns and gadgets here in a minute. Again, I can't stress enough, pick up all of the 80% tech that you think you need because, well, Trump did what we expected Trump's administration to do. Trump's in charge. The Bondi anti-gun group is in charge. And the Bondi anti-gun group under Trump, the anti-gun Trump group, did exactly what was expected. Well, they're doing away. I've listened to stupid people saying, they're doing away with the ATF. I will repeat again. Not any part of United States code for the ATF has been withdrawn from service. Everything that the Batfaggots do now is still fully in place and it doesn't make any difference what kind of wind addressing or musical chairs you play on the Titanic with this. The United States Code. They didn't give up tobacco. Well, they didn't give up alcohol. They didn't give up tobacco. And they didn't give up firearms. Okay, as far as them going after the guns. Liberal Trump is doing what we expected Liberal Trump to do. So, let's do this. Ed, if you could, today's Guns and Gadgets. And it's covering the Supreme Court. Some terrible breaking news. The Supreme Court case, Bondi v. Vanderstalk, was decided today. This is the ghost gun rule, frames and receivers that we've been waiting on. And it went just about as many of us thought it was going to go. The Supreme Court just dropped a bombshell 7-2 ruling. And if you're a builder of your own firearms at home, this decision directly impacts you. The ATF's overreach just got the green light, but not in the way you might think. If you're keeping score at home, every justice except Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito just sided with the ATF to uphold their frame and receiver rule. Before we dive into this massive case, make sure you hit the subscribe button so you don't miss a single beat when it comes to our rights, our gear, and our freedom. Stick around because you're going to want to hear what the Supreme Court had to say about this. Alright, let's rewind. The Gun Control Act of 1968 says that firearms include any weapon designed to shoot a projectile and, more controversially, the frame or receiver of such weapon. But here's the thing. Technology has evolved and companies like Polymer80 and the like started selling parts kits that you could assemble at home. No serial numbers, no background checks, no licenses, just tools, some time, and some American spirit of independence. And the government, well, they freaked out. In 2022, the Biden ATF wrote the rule to treat these kits and unfinished lowers as actual firearms. And the government was sued under the Administrative Procedures Act saying the ATF had no authority to do this. And the district court agreed. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed. They said that the law was crystal clear that parts kits were not firearms. Frames and receivers mean finished ones. But the Supreme Court? Yeah, about that. It just took a turn for the worse. Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the majority decision and he reversed the lower courts. The high court, the Supreme Court, said this, actually yes, the ATF can regulate some parts kits and unfinished receivers as long as they can be readily converted into firearms. The court pointed out that polymer-80 kits and the like can be assembled into working pistols in about 20 minutes using tools that you have in your garage. And so the court ruled the ATF's interpretation isn't facially inconsistent with the law. In other words, it's not illegal on its face, even if it could be abused down the road. So what does this mean for you? If you're building from an 80% lower, the ATF might now say you're building a firearm. If you're building a complete kit, you might now be required to go through a background check just like you were buying a Glock off the shelf. But, and this is critical, the court didn't give the ATF a blank check. They admitted there are limits. Not all parts, kits, or firearms. Not every unfinished receiver is covered. This is a legal battlefield now folks. It's gonna be case by case, kit by kit, lawsuit by lawsuit. And here's the spicy part. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented hard. Thomas said the court is rewriting the law to give bureaucrats power Congress never gave them. He warned that if parts can be regulated as firearms, we're headed down a dangerous road where freedom gets chipped away one regulation at a time. And he's not wrong. The ATF's track record is filled with flip-flops and rule changes. Do we really want unelected officials deciding what counts as a gun? Sound off in the comments. Do you agree with the court's decision? Should the ATF have this kind of power? I personally think that they should be abolished at all costs. If you care about freedom, now is the time to stay informed and to stay active. Subscribe to Guns N' Gadgets, share this video with your Second Amendment buddies, and let us know in the comments how far... Should the ATF be allowed to go? Terrible ruling, 7-2 in favor of the ATF. The only justices that had their brains inside their melons were Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. And like I said, this went exactly how we felt it was going to go. If you were here when I covered the live stream of the oral arguments in the Supreme Court, it kind of went the way I said it would at that point. It wasn't good. But now we know. Take care. Totally surprised that Howard Johnson would agree with Gabby Johnson. That's a classic example of backwoods home gibberish. In other words, yes, the communists have continued. The Jewish mob was told what it is they were supposed to do, and they've done it. Because this is all the same old tripe we've seen before. Now, of course, day after day, it would be more wasted time in court. Non-stop wasted time in court. And that's not accidental, that's a Trump thing, that's a Bondi thing, that's exactly where we knew this. Like I said, the leftists that are in the present regime got their way. Mr. Trump, the leftist, got his way. I'm not restricting for it, I'm just going to harass the hell out of you every step of the way and of course it will be arbitrary depending upon when the buggers want to try and well stir the pot and mess with you. Now, it's not a surprise. Again, do I sound like, oh my goodness, I never would have thought, no, it's the kind of thing that we knew was in motion. It's like the rest of the dribble. Progressively, progressive being the proper term for this scam. Step by step, we're gonna see more of the same. You can't be disillusioned or upset, per se, because first you have to be illusioned. And I am not illusioned. Therefore, I'm not going to go, oh my God, how could this happen? It's real easy. It's a leftist thing. Donald Trump is a leftist. He could stop this. But cold his track because Ms. Bondi. Of course, could have just pulled this from the docket because, well, they're in charge. So this was proceeded upon at the order of Trump with Bondi, the commie, the kosher mafia twit from Florida, doing exactly what we expect the twit to do. And the twit did. What we expected. Proceeded with the mission as ordered to do so by the foreigners. So we got to get on to other ideas here. Number one, well more than just ideas, we got to get things done or accomplished. I highly recommend that you invest in ammunition, number one. Not any great deals out there. A couple things I've noticed have started to rise price-wise. I don't know if you noticed this, but certain ammunitions that we know are heavily invested bulk-wise have been sliding up, not down in price. I also notice certain AR-15 parts, which tells me that certain manufacturers have probably backed off or moved towards other subject matters. So certain parts, AR-15 parts, they start to creep. Well, one of them is charging handles. Like I said, about two months ago, guys, invest. This is the cheapest you'll ever see AR-15 parts. And we're starting to see it go the other way now. where the parts are starting to increase in cost incrementally. We've gotten past the January, February doldrums. We had that post-Christmas or around Christmas fantastic bargain window. Now there are still things that are going to pop out and this is what I've said a million times and I have to keep repeating it. You need to cherry pick what you're going to purchase if you're going to try and keep the cost of your AR-15 bill down. Right now, you can still go to, for instance, cDNN Sports and find not all, I've noticed that somebody has come and bought a bunch of stuff. I think somebody did a job or purchased, they've done this before, with cDNN, certain parts that I mentioned in the last couple of weeks, we know that there were like tens of thousands of parts there and they do, if you pay attention, if you get the email, call and make deals. CDNN has always been good for this. Well, somebody did. Somebody came in and made one hell of a deal and a bunch of those Bushmaster parts have gone out probably for a build with another company. Let me jog your memory. Back when Remington went out of business because of the Soros consortium that they then targeted with a lawsuit which put all of the other companies like Marlin and Bushmaster and many others out of business. When that happened, Bushmaster went under and then there was this wall because, needless to say, I've got to go through the courts. The bankruptcy and the liquidation of the resources take time. The first wave were a massive amount of Bushmaster parts. And CDNN was one of the big beneficiaries on the retail end. Well, jobber end, but retail end. And you might recall you could buy 10,000 pins. for, like we're talking, you know, different pins for the upper and lower, different components for the upper and lower. 10,000 pieces at a time. I brought it up on the air. It's way back in the archives now. But it was like a fifth of a penny. Not a penny, a fifth of a penny, a tenth of a penny. The quantity prices were so beautiful that if you were smart, and several people were obviously, what they did is they bought those parts up which prevented them from having to purchase at a higher price those parts to build bulk carrier, full bulk carrier assemblies, complete uppers, complete lowers. In fact, I would say that a lot of the other company parts, for instance, Anderson, that Anderson was carrying a lot of Bushmaster parts over the last couple of years because they bought barrels, you know, five gallon pails worth of parts for, you know, a fifth, a tenth, a twentieth of what they'd have to pay if they went out and bought new or built it themselves. For all the tiny widget parts, that's why they don't eat the razor, it's the blades. It's those tiny widget parts that are going to head up. So if all of a sudden you could buy them for bargain basement, then there was a short window where your profits go up that much more because your overall overhead, your cost goes down. I think right now the second and third waves of the Bushmaster parts, which if you go look at CDNN, just read what they post, You can see exactly who's benefiting or who had a good finger on the pulse of the sale and did a good job of grabbing up what they could find, what was available. However, what's been happening is certain parts are being collected, especially again, cheapest for the most is charging handles were down to four or five and at the most, $6. Right now, the cheapest you're looking at out there is 10. $12 and $14 for a baseline standard charging handle. Oh, there's all kinds of widgets, special double paddles and ambidextrous and everything else, but they're a lot more expensive. The standard charging handle was down to what was literally its low point about a month and a half, two months ago, and the same is true with other parts. Now, the charging handle is a lot more critical than people realize. And so much so that I would have to say if you confide a deal for something or even if you're just simply going to say, man, I need the part if Mark says so, which hopefully you're listening. Charging handles do break. Not very often, but of all the parts you have to have. By God, you have to have a charging handle for an AR-15. It's one of those, you know, we, it's an odd bulb. bastardized idea that they came up with, that Armalite slash Stoner came up with. It works, provided it's built right. And for the most part, everybody's been building right. So what happens though if it fails? How do you operate the bolt carrier group with the AR-15 if you don't have a charging handle? You really can't. I mean, you can get in there with a knife and kind of, I mean, you can work the bolt back. Of course, if you're lucky, if you get it loaded. Bang, bang, bang, bang, you have a bolt lock back, that's cool. So you can just flop it and then fire until you're empty again and you get a bolt lock back after 30 rounds. But it means that the weapon has to stay loaded and don't close the bolt because you've got to work it back open again and fight it to get it into the lock back position with probably using a little knife to get it open if it closed on an empty chamber. You see what I mean? In other words, it is the one part, the charging handle, is one of those parts you better have spares. In the future, if we're in a battlefield situation, as I've said a million times, all wreckage parts come back with you. Why? Because every stinking widget, every pin, every part that can either A is proper dimension or can be bent back where it belongs is going to be needed to maintain the other weapons that are progressively wearing down. and charging handles, small pins, anything you can scavenge off a shot or a bent or busted rifle or pistol is going to have to be used. Plus, if at all possible, you're going to try to resurrect a wreck. If that wreck has got any possibility of being, you know, jury rigged back together, you're probably going to have to put it back into service. We are going to try to do that. That is the armorer's job. That is one of the things about understanding, improvising, adapting, and overcoming that you need to look at. In fact, there is an interesting series of videos that were done on YouTube where the kid basically, he is a boy, he is more than a boy, he is a man, a gentleman took different steel mags and he shot them. and also polymer mags. And he shot them and he actually was showing you what could I do to get that magazine back into service. Now literally he shot magazines and you know put dimple holes inside, scabs in it, you know different types of hits. And the idea is, huh, can I make this work? Well, let's see. Huh, can I make this work? Well, let's see. Here's how we do it. And the idea was that after the damage is done, figure out how it is you can bring that mag back into service with whatever tools you've got and continue to use it. Now, is it the first solution? No, it's not your first solution. But if you're down to your last magazines, because you've been dropping them, losing them, or they've worn down and broken, you've got to make work what you do have. This is a good idea. I hate seeing stuff damaged. It's like wasting time shooting ballistic helmets to me is useless nowadays. It either works or it doesn't work as well. If it doesn't work as well, I don't need 25, 30 different people showing me the same helmet being shot at and going, I like it or I don't like it. That's a waste of resources. Any helmet is better than no helmet. But this project, it doesn't need to be done by a lot of people, but somebody looking at it and then being fair about developing solutions. That's good. That's good work. That's important. It's things that you need to see, okay? And it does serve us overall. It's not a waste, not just for the sake of busting stuff up to bust stuff up. We're at the bottom of the hour. We're going to bust up this hour properly at the very bottom because it's Weapons Wednesday. Edward is cock-locked and ready to rock and roll with a bottom of the hour break. You're listening to Liberty Tree Radio, dot 4mg dot com, liberty tree radio, dot org. And it is Weapons Wednesday. And that means Weapons Wednesday, bottom of the hour, my, I'm hoping, uh oh. Let me make sure I'm connected. I can be talking to Dan Air. I think it could happen. I wouldn't be surprised, especially with all the stuff going on right now. Again, you're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. It is Weapons Wednesday. We are at the bottom of the hour. Okay. Well, anyway, I tried to get hit at the bottom of the hour. I think I did. So you're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. Again, also, before I go any farther, real quick, somebody is asking me again, I don't know, I think I said it more than enough, ar15discounts.com, that's where those parts are that I was just talking about, top of the hour, ar15discounts.com, ar15discounts.com, also, delta team tactical. It has a bunch of really good combos, including one that has an 80% lower, along with all the internal stock components. And it's a really good price. In fact, right now if you take that particular kit, that 80% lower, and window shop over at Bear Creek Arsenal, as I've said several times, for a little under $300, you can put together a complete AR-15 rifle. No optics or anything, no sights. Typically a flat top, but you can pick whatever you want to in the way of scopes, iron sights or whatever. And put a decent AR-15 light rifle slash carbine together, 16 inch barrel, amazingly enough for that price, all metal front end, you know, with full rails, the whole nine yards. Making it a very desirable weapon system for a utility rifle. Drivers, vehicle operators, home defense. If you're looking at conflict, this is one of those niche weapons for the time being because the AR-15 is the most affordable rifle to build right now. Most important is that, as I have said many times, while I prefer certain firearms, At this moment, the AR-15 can be bought in pieces. So in fact, with several different companies I just mentioned, if you don't have a lot of money, there's no reason for you to not spend $100 here, $40 there, another $106 here. Congratulations. By the time you're done, you've got an AR-15. And then, just keep ticking away. If you can't afford to buy five or 10 magazines, because you spent your You've spent most of the wad on those other components. You can buy a few mags at a time and keep ticking away at the deals and the sales. And they don't all have to be the same magazines. Whatever it is, it's best priced for the moment to get yourself loaded up. So your chest pouch or your combat rig, whatever you've got, or your mag bandoliers are full. You can do it with whatever is best priced. There aren't a whole lot of not working magazines anymore. We've pretty well seen that the market is informed quickly. People know what's going on. They know what works. They know it doesn't. And they will continue to function accordingly. They will continue to make them work. Tell you what, let's try this. We are at the bottom of the hour. We should be hearing the bottom of the hour. Weapons Wednesday. Hey! This is... This one is mine. Oh, the right way. We'll prove no rightful. We'll praise the home back across the drywall. That giddy must come as well as to the slaughter. But if we the gods must do, then the sooner it is begun. If the vengeance figure holds the buck, too, the quicker it will be done. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands hold the rifle, hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands we'll prove no... Alright, and we are back. I'll tell you what, let's do a third music break piece here for the bottom of the hour. Yellow Rose of Texas. For our friends down there, we're talking to someone in Central Texas this morning, and it looks like weather has been medium all over Texas right now, 40 degrees at night, 80 degrees during the day. That sounds like Texas. So for everybody out there, Yellow Rose of Texas. He'd like to broke my heart, and if I ever find her, we never more shall part. She's the sweetest rose of color that this soldier ever knew. Her eyes and bright as diamonds, this sparkle like to do. You may talk about your winsome names and sing of Rosalie, for the evil rose of Texas, and the souls of Tennessee. End up with the text, mark the army of my state. We marched down to the border and there we made it safe Against that storm from Mexico we all stood firm and true And each night the stars emerged my thoughts returned to you This rose of color that this soldier ever knew For I've surprised the brightest diamonds and they sparkle like the dew You may talk about your instant maids and sing of Rosalie For the yellow rose of Texas leads the bells in Tennessee In the heart of proud old Houston we met the federal mind With griff sexy courage we've bought into the night Because of our struggle under the city's glow Yet in the south between the shots I mister thought I'd never ever knew They sparkle like the dew Give me talk about your Winston-Mason sing of Rosalie For the yellow rose in Texas beats the bells in Tennessee Virginia with the Rangers I was sent Those cold dark trenches and many a night was spent Amidst the chill and danger her memory was my bond I'd hold close to her image a soothing color that this vulture ever knew Her eyes are bright as diamonds and they sparkle like they do You may talk about your winter maids and sing of rosary The yellow rose text beats those bells in Tennessee Through this new war-torn land, that her love it is my guide And with each burning sunset's glow, through the end me tie Through smoke and blood and battle cries, when truth remains to be That the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me She was of color that this soldier ever knew Her eyes of bright and diamonds and these sparkle lights they do You may talk about your Vincent names and sing out Rosalie But the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me The yellow rose of Texas. There we go. And for our friends, we down south, especially you guys down there on the border, we appreciate the fact that the militia is just as active today as it has been for the last 30 plus years when everybody else is sitting on their hands and doing nothing about the border, telling you that there was nothing going on down on the border. Patriot movement, the militia, were doing their part every step of the way in the face of stupidity and ignorance on the part of many, many people who enjoyed their stupidity and ignorance in the process while they were busy spittin' on the Patriots who were doing the right thing. Just a heads up there. But everybody's discovered that now. Donald, cause Donald's there, cause good old Don Don. Don and Bundy just showed you exactly how they want to shit on the American firearms owner. And that's going to continue. And in fact, it's going to be ignored. Don't worry about that. Except for the people who are actually paying attention. And again, if you haven't listened to the piece that just came out of the Supreme Court with the Bondi prostitute operation pushing the gun grab, because after all, they could have stepped completely away from that. and it wouldn't have gone any farther. But you know what? That horror, I mean that, Attorney General we have, the prostitute, carried on with the mission as the kosher mafia ordered it to. So now we have the situation we have. They're not a surprise. Don't worry, there'll be more. Plenty, plenty more of getting pissed on and backstabbed and we're all supposed to be, well, Governor, Yeah, I should say senator remember we got a saying where I come from don't piss on my back and try to tell me it's raining Which is exactly what the Bondi? Prostitute just did oh, they're not doing what they said they're doing they're doing something else. Well. What is this something else? Well the So anyway, I'll tell you what we're going to do. You know what? It's so important because if you came in late, and I've actually been on a dead run today, we had Ed Headey buying me a little time with an intro piece you might have noticed, which is one of my favorite. Worst day since yesterday. Ed, pull up guns and gadgets. Let's play that one more time. What the hell? After all, I liked Jared's voice. There's nothing else. He's been around for a while. Let's just get another update one more time. Latest guns... Dude, the Supreme Court case, Bambi versus Vanderstalk was decided today. This is the Ghost Gun Rule. Frames and receivers that we've been waiting on. And it went just about as many of us thought it was going to go. The Supreme Court just dropped a bombshell 7-2 ruling. And if you're a builder of your own firearms at home, this decision directly impacts you. The ATF's overreach just got the green light, but not in the way you might think.

The court pointed out that polymer-80 kits and the like can be assembled into working pistols in about 20 minutes using tools that you have in your garage. And so the court ruled the ATF's interpretation isn't facially inconsistent with the law. In other words, it's not illegal on its face even if it could be abused down the road. So what does this mean for you? If you're building from an 80% lower, the ATF might now say you're building a firearm. If you're building a complete kit, you might now be required to go through a background check, just like you were buying a Glock off the shelf. But, then this is critical. The court didn't give the ATF a blank check. They admitted there are limits. Not all parts, kits, or firearms. Not every unfinished receiver is covered. This is a legal battlefield now, folks. It's going to be case by case, kit by kit, lawsuit by lawsuit. And here's the spicy part. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented hard. Thomas said the court is rewriting the law to give bureaucrats power Congress never gave them. He warned that if parts can be regulated as firearms, we're headed down a dangerous road where freedom gets chipped away one regulation at a time. And he's not wrong. The ATF's track record is filled with flip-flops and rule changes. Do we really want unelected officials deciding what counts as a gun? Sound off in the comments. Do you agree with the court's decision? Should the ATF have this kind of power? I personally think that they should be abolished at all costs. If you care about freedom, now's the time to stay informed and to stay active. Subscribe to Guns N' Gadgets, share this video with your Second Amendment buddies, and let us know in the comments how far... Should the ATF be allowed to go? Terrible ruling. 7-2 in favor of the ATF. The only justices that had their brains inside their melons, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. And like I said, this went exactly how we felt it was going to go. If you were here when I covered the live stream of the oral arguments in the Supreme Court, it kind of went the way I said it would at that point. It wasn't good. But now we know. Take care. Land of the Fee and Home of the Slave. Play ball! And away we go. So for everybody out there, again, guns and gadgets, if you can take the time, go over, give them a thumbs up because, well, they're on YouTube. YouTube's losing more and more business by the day I know that. If you're not familiar with the information that's been put out there about where the ratings are going with live radio, So again, go and give the video a thumbs up, take the time and share. This is another thing that needs to happen to make sure that everybody's informed and if you can go through any other videos for guns and gadgets it does help with what little fictional algorithm might be left in the the Scammelmatic operation that they do have I mean we I really I don't know we really can't be sure how they're doing anything anymore It's great planet crap food 21st century. You know how that you know what that means absolute junk so We'll do our part though and we can do it because it doesn't really cost us anything. It only takes a minute to go over there and do that, pitch in and help out an ally. And that's over at Guns N Gadgets on YouTube. Take the time, plug it in and get out with other business. As soon as you're done, well, slide down to other things. I'm sure there's enough to keep you busy. Also, let's see real quick, somebody was asking, And one of the pop ups here on the alternate side, and as a matter of fact, I haven't answered it yet. Well, I will in a second. Give me a moment. But anyway, butt stocks, what do I prefer for the AR-15? Well, to be quite honest, I like the 20-inch rifle. You know that. But here's the thing. Let's get back to, if it was personal choice, I've got my pecking order. One of the advantages of the AR-15 is I can scrunch down that folding stock, whatever model it is, down to kid rifle. Which means that any person that you have in your family that needs to be able to train with the rifle that's going to be the weapon they grow up into, You can give them an AR-15 and that buttstock can be adjusted out accordingly until they're a long arm, 6 foot plus tall individuals. And the same rifle fits the same shooter over a 20 year period as they grow. The big advantage here with the folding, not folding but collapsing because that's really what they are, they're not folding stocks. There is, I know there's a whole new system out there for the folding stock and an AR to me personally That's a personal flavor choice thing. It's just another thing that can go wrong with a rifle that has enough issues as it is. Well, Mark, you just told everybody to buy an AR. Yes, but we all still know about the issues of the AR-15. It defecates where it eats. In other words, the impingement system, when the gas pushes back, it pushes that bolt carrier back. A certain amount of carbon is reintroduced into the operating area. No matter how hard you wish it would happen, it's going to happen. I'm not impressed with the rod systems. Then again, I'm not a commercial shooter. I know immediately as soon as I say that, I'm sinful to half of the AR operators out there because the more invoked thing is to go with the piston drive system. We understand how that works. Yeah, it's six of only half a dozen the other. So, I have a multiple number of additional working part issues in the long haul with maintaining a rifle. The dominant number of AR-15s out there are impingement type systems, in other words, the standard original design. If I need to keep millions of people armed in a national defense effort to fight to keep our freedom, Then, for most of you, the most common parts available means that it's most likely your weapon will continue to function when others can't because you will have spare parts available and you've also bought them for cheap. That doesn't mean they're chintzy parts. Example, Bushmaster didn't make junk and there's a ton of Bushmaster spare parts out there. They're not the only ones. In fact, there is what? Probably close to 50 or 100 AR-15 manufacturers for parts right now, if not more. And I think it probably is quite a bit more because some specialize in niche parts and they crank the Jesus out of them. Okay, they make a massive quantity of parts for the whole of the industry. Now to a degree, that's good because they've brought the cost down. So for benefiting us to build right now, that's great. Here's the thing. We have had this happen several times where a company gets put out of business because if you have a choke point and you kill that business, that stops production. So all of a sudden nobody is making that part. Well, there are only so many parts out there and all of a sudden you are sucking vapors. So that is another reason we need more production and multiple item production facilities. for the same same widget so that nobody can knock somebody out just with one step. Okay, we got a caller. Who do we have? I keep hearing a voice. Hey Martin, is it Carl and Virginia? Go ahead, Carl. Can you hear me? Yep, we got you. Yeah, so I had the opportunity to pick up an AR team that somebody had loaded a 300 blackout in and it went kaboom. Uh-oh. Because it was a C2 barrel. Yeah, and but I think the saving grace for it was that they were using subsonic ammunition So it wasn't as much of high as the chamber pressure, but the entire lower was fine It's got a little bit of blemish on it, but not a big deal everything fully functional, but then the upper I thought you know was totally gone, but actually the only thing that really Was killed on it was the bolt carrier Yeah, I just need a broken shell extractor, and I think I can reuse that barrel if I want to. Well, question. You might be able to. But the big thing is, what did the bolt carrier do? Did it splay or peen? What was it, distorted? The bottom piece of it that makes contact with the top of the magazine, that was flown straight. So that was flown out. The extractor and ejector were destroyed. The firing pin, the cotter pin, most of the parts that are in the bolt carrier And almost all the parts on the upper receiver, including the upper receiver itself, are all reusable. Now I've seen on YouTube where people were, you know, blew up on that, I guess they were not using subsonic, they were using regular hypersonic ammunition, and it actually destroyed the entire upper receiver itself. Right. But even if that were, it still might be worth picking up because there's still a whole bunch of parts small little part on the upper receiver that you can still salvage. And of course the lower should be fine. You can always use broken stuff in a gun buyback program and get a few bucks for it, I guess, if you build a dummy gun, I guess. Yeah. Well, the big thing that sounds like what happened is the pressure vetted down at the 6 o'clock point. Now did the key question did the cake did the go ahead? Yeah? Okay, well stay where you are if you can we're gonna pick this up we get back Because you've got something we've all been you know everybody's always wanted to see but you've actually got one So let's do this God bless our Republic We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the empires on the run And we're on the march, both day and night. And so the Trump administration has shown its colors and done another anti-gun thing. As Jared pointed out, it's a Bundy Attorney General's office. They could have dropped this case. They didn't. They proceeded to attack the American firearms owners in the Supreme Court. Macreating a decision is going to hurt everybody. And they don't care. Let's remember that. Now, Trump's going to do a lot more with the conversation end of the deal with the First Amendment very soon. And you won't be able to say anything bad about Jewish mafia slash the Slops in Israel. You know, the excrement and filth. You notice I did that intentionally because I really am not going to stop. You know, call a spade a spade, or in this case, call an enemy an enemy. I'm sure that down the road that will be a crime just like everything else would be a crime under the soft liberals that are insured. Let's take a break. Let's go run and use the bathroom, grab a cup of coffee, we'll be right back here in a few minutes. The second hour of the intel report. Wednesday on Liberty 3 Radio. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the lands we secured for you, who drew all the time. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've given government control to those who do you harm, so they can burn down churches and seasonally farm, and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit so their children can be your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children fear? Both 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 right. As I awoke he vanished in the mist for once he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? We'll end a closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories north, northeast, west, and southeast. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. And we're on satellite. I want to say thank you to all those people who read, well, listen, and then rebroadcast using satellite billiards. That's the only way it's like bouncing. Bouncing, I say, of many different objects in space. And it's interesting how well it works. And it's a shadow system. You can't stop it, people. This is one of those things that you can't stop. It's kind of fun. Very much fun. Haven't done it in quite a while. two weeks ago, two weekends ago, and a weekend ago actually, a little bit. I got a chance to do something I haven't done in half a century, and it's fun. Okay? In fact, it's interesting. Test your skills. Anyway, analog and digital for the satellite. We're also in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And it is Wednesday. It's weapons Wednesday. Yes, I know. The turds in Washington, the Bondi turds, and all the rest of the filth, want to try to quietly disarm you or set the enemy upon you once they get a chance to pass the baton back to the leftist the rest of the way. And you know they will. Remember that famous line from Braveheart when he says they're going to come burn us rick and cut. And you knew they will. Yeah. So again, you know they will. and they're setting up the game for it. There's nothing changing. They're setting up the new game to screw us. So anyway, it's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 26th of March. It is the 17th year of open and obvious and in-your-face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2025 old-earth calendar. Give it all. She's got Captain. And, 2025 Battle for the Republic, Book 2, the Winter War, although we're getting to the end, we really are, but it's still chill out there. The moment that sun disappears, temperature is dropping by 30 or 40 degrees, so beware, we even get nice every morning, even though it's pretty out. That will get you killed if you're not paying attention. We still have the Winter War, Book 2, before us. So we got Carl, I think there's still Carl, you with us? Hopefully we didn't lose you. We might have. I can understand if you've got to step away. But interestingly enough, let me point something out. Each weapon system, when it comes to overpressure failure, is very specific in how it functions or how the weapon reacts to over pressures. Sometimes they're intentionally designed to deal with the problem. Let me give you an example. And again, this has happened for decades and decades and, well, more than 100 years. Most of the Mauser designs, after initially going from low pressure to high pressure cartridges especially, and stiffer slash more aggressive designs to maintain control over that pressure, still had, well basically, they were blow-off vents. You may have wondered, why is there a hole in the side of my Mauser? Why is there a hole? I'm not talking a gaping jagged hole. But a little pip, there's a little vent hole. That was designed in the event there was some kind of case failure and to prevent gas or damage components if there would be say a fracture of some kind, not so much in the receiver of the bolt, but it could be just simply blowout with small components bleeding past the bolt somehow. Instead of it coming back on the shooter, straight back from the chamber, the pressure vents or the blow points are designed so that the gas or excess of energy that makes it past a failed case is jettison perpendicular to the operator. And this actually worked quite well. What was the reason for this? Well, it's not that the rifle was going to be a bad design. It's unfortunately the fact that in wartime Ammunition production can be dicey from one country to the next. Germany, for instance, already knew that no matter what war it got into, and this started before World War I when modern cartridge guns came into play, they had an industrial plan already in place for wartime production. So let me give you an example of what that meant. You went from the standard projectiles with the higher quality thicker or, you know, so they say high grade materials like a full copper jacket to a nickel or copper wash, not solid nickel, talking a nickel wash or a copper wash or a zinc wash to create the soft malleable outer surface where the jacket was going to meet the lansing grooves of the rifling. Number two, the Germans knew that within six months of going to war, and they knew this in World War I and experienced it full force exactly as they expected, they would be going from brass case to steel case production. When looking at the probability of expanding in World War II, they knew that this formula would be inevitable because steel, they had a lot of. brass, or I should say copper, and all the other like tin, antimony, aluminum being a separate production process altogether. All of these particular processes of metallurgy, whatever they would be working, would have to be prioritized towards other material, not towards what we call perishables. That's what a cartridge is. It's a perishable. So the Germans immediately went to steel within three months, full steel production almost, and or bi-metal production for their cases. Well, what does that mean? Well, even with that production, it's possible to have highs and lows in quality of product. Because in wartime production, if you spent man hours on something, you didn't let it go to waste. Even if you accepted the idea, any had to accept the idea, that you might have an increased number of failures with a particular finished product. Not extreme, but they could be annoying and it could be an issue for the operator. So, the weapons did an accommodation for this variant in how ammunition would be produced, which is why blow-offs or even intentional failure designs, so that if the device fails, it will fail in what is called a positive and lock mode, so that it can be withdrawn from service, it can be recovered, rebuilt, or it can be reset. The broken or damaged failed part was designed to be weaker and intentionally preserve the weapon and save the operator. In other words, it's not going to be a danger to the shooter. But it would save the shooter from harm and allow a skilled operator to continue to function. Now, actually, all these are part of the math formula for building weapons. So it's interesting. And let's see if Carl, if Carl's there. I know Carl might have take off. But if Carl's there, he can step in any time. There, thank you, Carl. The thing you pointed out, when we're talking about this, the bulk carrier failed at about the 6 o'clock mark, am I right? Exactly. So it failed at an angle that was close. Oh, you're bouncing around. Hold on, Carl. You're bouncing around and kind of losing you for some reason. Go ahead, repeat everything you said. Try that again. I allowed the reception here. Yeah, it brought them to the front, bottom, kind of flat, but it kind of angled it up a little bit. It ripped that and blew it to the hat and the magazine, out of the magazine's destroyers. I sent you an email with, I think, throws. It's got that, the shelf, and then the chamber. It's left a... There's a 300 blackout case in the chamber, but it blew the back off of it, so it's just the walls above it. And the jackets and the bullets stayed placed, but most of the lead went at multiple. So you still don't understand the front half. Well, the thing about this is number one, the bulk carrier failed in what would, again, like I was saying, would be a positive situation. It's not great because you're going to lose the magazine or damage the magazine of the contents. But of all the directions I'd want the energy to go, it would be in that direction because magazines are discardable. Ammunition's replaceable. The lower receiver's an upper receiver is not so much. So it's interesting that the way it failed, it failed in a positive way. in that whatever was in the path of the vent is all components that might even be recoverable. The big thing here again is if that did not, where the bullet made contact in a lower velocity because it is a subsonic round, if the jacket failed forward and the lead was extruded through the jacket of the projectile, you might not even have any bulge or distortion for the barrel itself. And if you do, it's not likely because it is the heaviest point. Doesn't mean it can't fail. It can. But the 556 round isn't as large as others with more dynamic powder charges available. And the metallurgy, as such, with the density of the barrel at the chamber point, you might have a fully functional barrel and upper receiver there, if we're lucky. Cross your fingers. Now, even if there was distortion, In other words, beyond the chamber because it's going to be just forward to the chamber where you would see an issue because the bullet lodges, you create an energy pulse right there. That energy pulse tries to find the path of least resistance to failure, which is what it did when it failed to the rear with the case. But to a degree, you'll still get a strike all around the lateral where the canler is in the bullet where the case is and the canler rests on the bullet. That would be the point where you'll have the greatest strike of energy, the pulse. But if the jacket was light duty, which is another thing to think about, they want cheap on the bullets, that would be great. So the bullet itself actually didn't work as well as a gas check as it could have. And you might actually have a pretty decent barrel to work with still. That will be interesting to see how that develops. Go ahead, anything else? Jump in there, please. Yeah, it looks like the barrel. There, now you're sounding clearer. You're sounding better. You were kind of garbled still before. Go ahead, jump in there. OK. The best parallel is reachable, I have to extract. Oh, I shouldn't have said anything. Hold on, hold on. You're warbling again. We got to try and figure out. You have to hold the phone closer to your face or adjust your head to see if you can get better reception. Try to get in the way of it. Okay, is this better? That's much better. That sounds good so far. Okay, I have to extract just in order to figure out if the barrel is usable again. But it looks okay from the outside. like that it holds a piece where by the chamber, where the boat locks in, everything just looks good. Cross my fingers, worst case scenario, I get another barrel and start to spread that, so okay. But even if the entire upper was, you know, no good, I got a really long, I had a complete load. pretty darn good shape and I like the way it's set up and plus I didn't realize it until I got it home and took it apart but whoever had it before had a hundred and ten years guys really chortle on it. That is for afterboard. Yeah I got a good deal. Well, one of the things, again, remember the high point, you know, man versus high point video. Interestingly enough, you could have a distortion in the barrel that would still offer the weapon to function. The only question would be where in the barrel the distortion is. That determines, you know, again, if there's going to be extreme pressure spike or if there's going to be a loss in accuracy. It's amazing how The bullet makes up the difference for issues, even when there's variance, when there's something that's an iffy element with regard to a barrel step or a barrel, for instance, a barrel flaw that takes place because of a failure like this. It's just hard to explain over the era. With what you've described, it sounds like what we need is a broken case shell extractor. Amazingly enough, you know what? Here's an idea. You do remember that the Chinese brought in a bunch of 223 AKs, right? When they brought those 223 AKs in, the standard kit, all of them, just like the AK-47s, came with a broken shell extractor. The standard JAG insert, it's built with a 556 base. Now you'd have to search around, but this is an example of where that would become a very handy tool right now. You won't have to worry about scabbing or striking the chamber. If you're lucky, the JAG will do its job. The only thing is, again, remember, the extractor is taking a lot of energy. It takes all the oomph. with whatever needs to be done and the errors aren't that heavy. But the important thing is that there is a tool wandering. It's out there somewhere. Somebody's got one. Know what I mean? You know who you might check? Go ahead. I keep losing. We're losing you almost completely now. Hold on, Carl. We're losing you almost completely for some reason. I don't know if you're traveling or whatever's going on, but you're completely gone there. Go ahead. Yeah, I'm out in the 6. But I know Brunel's has a broken shell extractor, but I sent you an email. The subject is 300BO0. Oops. Very good. So Brunel's has it. If they are out, just in case they're listing it but don't have it, check whatacountry.com. You'll probably have to call them. What a country dot com. They have a lot of odds and ends like that. They're way over on the left coast. But what a country dot com is one and another one, but you've got to call them because it's something you'll have on the shelf. The minute I have it listed is keep shooting dot com. Okay, those are two other solutions for that problem. Just in case. But if Bernal has it, I'll tell you what I'd like. If you can get it, go ahead and call them. See if you can get it. And let us know if they have it in stock. And I would say that if anybody's listening and you're an armorer for your particular militia formation, you should have one of these in inventory. It's not that you're going to use it all the time, but let me point something out. You may have a case failure like this with standard 556. because you do have a lot of Russian steel case and other foreign steel or bi-metal case 556 ammo laying around out there. And it's more likely that that's where you're going to go in. Yeah, it had to happen to me on the range with a 556 case and it was brass. I mean, it was, you know, good decent ammunition supposedly, but yeah, it had that problem and we couldn't figure it out. Because it's hard to see the... the... the... the case... the case... the real guy blowing off the extractor did his job and it's gone gone and... but... you can't really see much when you're out of the field. On the shooting range, you know, if he's trying to put another round in the chamber, you know... Well, the big thing here is that with the broken shell extractor... with a broken shell extractor tube... a tool, The good thing is that the way it uses compression and hooks into a uniform surface on the inside of the dead case. If you use a jag tool, the one thing you've got to be careful with a jag tool is if you hook into the brass and if you use, there's a couple different ones that are older, the idea is it's basically a shop tool. It's really not for doing what we're talking about doing. It has one, two, or three claws, sometimes just one claw that hooks into the brass, but if you're aggressive when you're torquing that down, you can actually move through the wall and as you're pulling it out, you can score the chamber. With the extractor, the shell extractor we're talking about, you can't do that. In other words, you're going to compress the brass or the aluminum, or it won't be aluminum, it'll be bi-metal, probably, or, you know, slash steel. And you're not going to do any harm to the chamber. The big thing is not to score the chamber. So again, it may still be distorted. You can do, you can, I'll tell you what you can do with this also. Take the upper off and once you get everything cleaned up, put a bolt carrier back in it, take it to somebody with a, you know, like at a shop to see if you get, if they've got a go, no go gauge for 556. Unless you have one. But what they want is an armorers go no go gauge. And that will tell you if there really was any significant issue with the expansion with that brass, with that chamber. I would really like to know this only because this is one of those things where we got a first hand experience with an actual situation. We've had this with Glocks. I've seen the Glocks that failed firsthand, first person, the guy who owned them. So we had a chance to do a kind of a an autopsy, what happened here, but I've not had this particular thing in hand, this particular issue in hand yet, but I'm sure it's gonna be out there. Again, we have many different uppers that are chambered, so we need to be able to share as much of the working knowledge on this and see if we can recover it to whatever degree. One of the other things with an issue like this is the chamber may be, this is again for future reference and we're in a wartime situation. You may have a failure like this where you could completely recover most of the parts just like you're doing, like Carl's doing right now. Now the chamber may still be distorted, but if it was a choice between having another working rifle when I fired the brass, I'm gonna get an overextended case, but not extended to failure. It just means that the chamber is buffed open a little bit. It'll still function. It'll shoot every time it's supposed to shoot. But when you pull that brass, if you were to pull it and look at it, it's going to fire form to the distorted chamber. And it's not an issue that in the short term would fail the weapon. In the long term, you would, again, you've had excessive wear because of the distortion. So the life of the barrel is obviously going to be reduced. Because, remember, the barrels tempered, the chambers tempered, the, forgive me, the receiver, all the receiver specs with the way that they're cut, it's usually the, remember, the receiver in AR-15 isn't tempered. Maybe forged, but it's not tempered. The barrel itself does 99% of that work with the nature of the AR-15 design. So, if the barrel is slightly distorted but it still continues to function, you just have to understand that if you were reloading brass, see military wouldn't worry about that. If you're in a battlefield situation, it would be the last of your concern. But that barrel distortion would mean that you're having to aggressively resize brass. And when I say distortion, I'm talking just enough to make it off spec. I'm not talking about something where the case ruptures every time you pull the trigger. And for those of you who haven't seen that, it's quite entertaining when you have a sloppy Mauser chamber, notoriously. What you're watching for is if you're lucky, it would only be a shoulder vent. It will separate at the shoulder somewhere up around the forward end of the chamber. With a very tired rifle, you end up with case failures that can be tears or fractures along the body of the case. And this is where you have energy return back to the shooter, which is why you have those Mausers you have or many other rifles. Stires have some of the stars have the blow vents to Whatever blowback you would get from a bad chamber like that or a bad case is going to mostly be diverted perpendicular to the shooter Now the good thing about the air 15 get all kinds of rifle over top of whatever happened in the failure with this rifle Everything would have been down and contained into the magazine. Well Again, 6 o'clock. Think about 12 o'clock is where the impingement entry point is. 6 o'clock is where the magazine well is. You figure out the rest. Okay, Carl, I think we still got you there? Well, we've been losing you. You're way out in the boondock somewhere. Yeah, I'm here. Okay. Well, there. Now you're starting. Okay, this always happens. You always sound better and then you fade off. Go ahead. Anything else? Ship in there, please. Now that's all I got for you. I'm traveling for work right now. So it's gonna be a little bit until I get back to that project, but I'll keep you up to speed on it. Thank you. I appreciate it. Please do. And now you sound perfect. You were explaining before, but you were probably in a hole. I know how that is. You were traveling. So, but thank you for the input. Appreciate that. All right. Thank you. And again, the question is, this is where you have a 300 blackout and you have a 5.56 rifle and you have the ammunition. Well, you have a rifle that may have 300 blackout. You get a magazine full of 300 blackout. It fits into a standard 5.56 magazine. You insert that into a 5.56 weapon and you have a problem. And unfortunately, the round wheel chamber will seat. And you can pull the trigger and then you have embarrassing end results which are damaging to the rifle and dangerous for you. So we have to make sure that we do not mix apples and oranges. 300 Blackout, one of the solutions we've discussed is kind of like what the Israelis did with their K98 Mausers that they converted over to 7.62x51 NATO. You might recall, remember for years, you could buy surplus Israeli K98 stocks that had a dremel to actually router, they used a router, they routed 7.62 into the body of the stock. Does anybody remember this? The numbers were about three inches tall. And it was very obvious. You could not miss it. If you grabbed the rifle and you felt the stock, you could feel the ripple of the numbers so you'd know, hey, there's something different about this gun. That's why they did that. So light or dark. Why'd they do that? Well, because you got eight millimeter Mausers that were in service because there was, you know, eight millimeter was a rental revolution cartridge for decades after World War II. In fact, wars were fought and fed off World War II surplus for what, 40 years? Hell, we're still using stuff from that period of time. There's still stuff out and about out there. So to ensure that there wouldn't be any mistake made with regard to what ammunition should be issued with what rifle inventory if you were out in the field, the rifles were clearly marked by their buttstock, which chain bring. Now they didn't do 792. If the rifle was smooth stock, it was supposed to be. standard 792 by 57. Okay, in other words, standard 8 millimeter Mauser. So otherwise, it would be Mark. They had an issue with the Japanese, forgive me. The Italian Carcano, we've talked about this many times. You have the 7.35 Carcano. Which, by the way, the only difference between the two cases is the 7.35 is just spread out to 7.35 from 6.5 Kirkano. It is very obvious if you've operated the two, you notice the difference. They have a semi-conical projectile with the 7.35. Typically they stuck with, and in fact through the whole war, maintained the pencil bullet. with the 6.5. So it was obvious if you had a stripper clip full of ammo, if you're able to look at it or touch it, that you could feel the difference or see the difference between the two rounds. But here's the problem. Everything was identical. The M1939 Carcano in the 6.5 and the 7.35 were absolutely identical. The stripper clips were exactly the same, saved the Italians money. They only had to go with one system. And the same is true. The only difference was the barrel internal dimension and obviously the chainring to accommodate the bullet. And that's it. So again, this has happened before. A lot of guys in a lot of units have the 300 blackout that they prefer to use. But if you're in a combined unit, remember that this could be an issue. One of the solutions would be to mark with coloring with a paint or, you know, again, you don't want to cut things, you don't want to weaken anything, but you want to mark the magazines that are going to be normally used with 300 blackout. Probably the smart thing would be just to put 300 in black paint. In black or brown or a dark color, I don't want it in red or white. I don't want it so that the enemy can see what I have. I need it so that I can physically feel or I can see at close range that I've got the proper or improper magazine that I'm trying to use in a firearm. Now here's the problem too, that eventually you might drop somebody 5.56 mags and you've got to use the other guy's magazine, somebody's magazine. So here again, you can have apples and oranges mixed together and that would be a risk. Now before we farther, we're at the bottom of the hour. And so Edward, at the bottom of the hour, second hour, Weapons Wednesday, we do one thing. He tried a goodly speed, he may know what to turn a master. He forward-mucked with speed, but he learned the back-switched master when he met our mountain boys. And their leader John Scott, glad to make up little noise, and always hit the mark. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands, will prove no frightful. Back across the dry water, a jitty must come back, well up to the floor. But if we the job must do, then the sooner it is begun. If things figure, hold it back through, the flickers will be done. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands, we'll prove. In our hands, we'll prove. It is Weapons Wednesday. Your mind is your first best weapon, but if you fail to maintain proper defense of your person, no matter how great your argument, your ethereal concepts might be, Somebody to open your head like a canoe and take that Linguine and splash it over there against the wall You do not have the ability to protect and defend yourself and that means you need to be properly armed We got a caller. Who do we have? Paul and Tennessee. I had a question about the 45 auto cartridge Go ahead. What a problem. Could I ask? Okay Does it make sense that it would actually, you know, a gallon jug of water, that it would go in and then split, put a four and a half inch split out the back, full metal jacket, 230 grain. Does that make sense? Is that the damage it can do? Well, you know, obviously if it did, again, the water obstacle is, the water obstacle is Well, it demonstrates the fact that you can do a fine job of splitting a jug open. Again, there's density there, but it's not the equivalent to muscle mass, etc. Bone. We used to actually do a pretty good job of ballistic testing. Before everybody knew what ballistic gel was, we used to use horse-hide glue. It's flexible. It's malleable like, say, Jell-O jigglers. insert deer bones and you can actually simulate tissue and organ and bone construction quite nicely. The 1911 was designed to deliver and keep more energy on target. It wasn't supposed to, it's not supposed to have as much penetration. You don't really want that. The ice pick nature of the 9 millimeter is such that it will go through many, many things. It is a high velocity, smaller diameter. 30 caliber Tokarev is the same way. But the 1911 was designed, the 45 cartridge and projector were designed to keep more energy on target. The argument goes back to the whole thing about the conflict with the Moros and also the battle with the Chinese at Peking back in the day. Now Beijing, but it used to be called Peking. And what happened is we went down to 9mm, we went to 38mm automatic. which in reality is kind of crossed between 9mm and 9mm Largo and the problem is that you can shoot a target multiple times unless you hit a vital critical point like spine, throat, head and even with a throat shot they've got energy left to come at you. But the idea was if you didn't fracture something critical and break the nervous system then they kept coming. The 1911, with the wider contact service in a ball-slash-military jacketed round, would deliver more energy on target and keep it where it was supposed to be. So, again, the idea that you might get the penetration you think you want, well, the 45 isn't designed to do that. The Slingshot Channel, the German gentleman, God Georg, Anyway, that's what I'm trying to think of his name. Anyway, George, he demonstrated this years ago with one of his earliest videos where when he was doing wrist rockets, he was doing slingshots. And he built his own. He designs his own slingshots. Well, he started out using a .40 caliber ball bearing and a 5 gallon pail of ballistic gel. Well, he went right through it. He goes, no, that's not what I wanted. And so he goes up to about a 70 caliber, I believe, a little under or about 70 caliber ball bearing, kind of like going up from a 9 millimeter to a 45 ACP. And when he shoots it again, the ball bearing is stuck in the middle of the gel. And he goes, that's what I want. And in reality, it's true. That's what you want. You want the energy. You don't want to zip the energy through the target. What you want to do is keep 100% of the energy on target, which is what the purpose of the 1911 and the 45 ACP round were all about. In fact, traditionally when you wanted to put a target or stop a target dead in its tracks, you see 44 Magnum, 45 Wong-Colt, 45 ACP. The next solution is a combination of velocity and a little bit of weight, and that's the 10 millimeter round. Which before that of course everybody had to buy the 40 Smith and Wesson Which is higher velocity and still you know fairly heavy bullet, but not when thank you 11. It's all I guess doing is supposed to do Again, there are all kinds of special ways you can build that round But I still prefer with the 1911 and most weapons ball ammunition because I know it's gonna operate every time I don't have to tune the weapon in order for it to work It works every time with bull ammo. And the .45 is... I thought that when I shot this water, jug is gallon water, it would just zip through and just put a small hole in and out .45 caliber, but it didn't. It put a split in the back instead. Well, that's why I shot way slow moving and big, heavy. Is that why? Well, it's just the idea now as far as the split out the back I have to then simply say yeah, that's that's its purpose it was It did what it was supposed to do upon making contact. The resistance with the wider surface area of the projectile dictates that the velocity is going to drop very quickly. Now with the water jug, if I'm looking to make it blow up, then or a container, that's not going to be very exciting by comparison. But if I'm shooting somebody and I'm trying to make sure that they get punched hard every time, then the projectile is doing exactly what it's supposed to do. That's $239.00. Oh, it's worked for a hundred years. More than a hundred years now. This is 2025. Yeah, think about it. It's been 115 years plus in service. And in reality, the base cartridge for the 45 ACP was around in 1901, 1902. You could buy the Colt guns in a number of different chamberings, just like Winchester's. And whatever your little heart desired, they'd build. And eventually it moved towards what became the government standard 45ACP. A little sub-note on that, when they made all the M1917 revolvers, be they the Smiths or the Colts, those are chambered in 45 government-rimmed. You know, the difference between 45 government-rimmed and 45ACP is nothing whatsoever. Remember that while the revolvers were made in 45, they were made in 45. But they were made so that they could use half moon clips or full moon clips and you could load regular 45 ACP ammunition into a standard M1917 end frame revolver, be it the Colt or the Smith. However, they did make ammunition that was rimmed, but it's just the 45 ACP round, but with a rim instead of a rimless case where you have a depressed extractor rim. So in fact, every once in a while, I was still running to the ammunition out there. You don't see it on the shelves like we used to, and Remington still used to make it up until the 80s, made the rimmed case. But the load was identical. So it worked both ways. Yep, the shell casing the ambi bullet that I fired was one of those Remington UMC Fullmetal jacket said target, you know target use practice Well, it's a target use but is it was it letter was it? Led's fine. By the way, what led wadco? Yeah, it was it was a new UMC or old UMC if was old you should have probably saved it remember well you didn't have to but By the way, on that note, I will remind everybody if you were an avid .45 shooter, and I have been, that if you wanted to shoot wadcutter in .45 ACP, you typically had to throat and also polish the feed ramp, throat the barrel. and polish the feed ramps so that it could accept your target master ammunition because the wad cutter that was made for 45 ACP looks like the 158 grain wad cutter in terms of the shape of the bullet. The 158 grain wad cutter that was made for revolvers, for instance the 357 or 38. So it's a step projectile, but to use it consistently and to have consistent feed, you typically wanted to polish the barrel and the feed ramp. You had to throat the barrel, polish the feed ramp, and sometimes dress the extractor. So, there's terms for each one, but basically what it comes down to is you're cleaning it up and giving it a nice smooth feed ramp for it to work into, and the throating is designed to open up the fascia of the chamber a little bit so that no matter how it jags in there, it continues to feed. It's still popular for most everybody because if you use any of the other specialized 45 ACP rounds, throating, polishing are still typically policy. Although from the factory, most of the newer guns are built that way. So you don't have to do any special work. The reason that we became a special item is because 99% of us were using either baluster Molinas or regular 1911s and they're just factory straight guns. So I save all my MPs in primer. Right. Well, again, especially with love that on that note, especially with large pistol primers, If you shoot, save all pistol primers if at all possible, but especially if you're shooting anything that takes a large pistol primer, you better save the old primers. And the reason for that is which is more likely to not be around in the future, large pistol primers, because most everything in 9mm is standard or small pistol primer. and consistently it's cheaper. So guess which way you almost guarantee they're going to go with regard to any new ammunition. They're going to go cheapest. Sometimes you'd find large pistol in some of the European box or prime. I don't know why they did that and they got something cheap or they got some government surplus. But for the most part, if you're using like 44 Magnum, 45 Long Cold, 45 ACP, 44 Smith and Wesson, 41 Magnum, you want to save all of those shot primers because here's the cool thing, they're bigger, they're easier to rebuild. The bigger the object, the easier it is to manhandle it back, you know, to build it back into the original configuration and reactivate it. So large pistol primers especially, we should save all that we can. It doesn't make any difference if it's shot. It can be rebuilt. In fact, it's a pretty straightforward and easy process. And you can buy all the materials over the counter, including a fulminate, to actually reactivate the material, the activating material for the primer. It can be purchased just like you can purchase rifle powder. It's just that not many people do it. So you can buy the reactivating agent. If you can't, there's five or six different formulas out there and all of them work for reactivating the primer. Some have gone out of vogue for obvious reasons. Example, there are still the mercuric formulas for doing mercuric prima fulmate to activate the primer. But people don't like the mercury, number one. But also when you do that, the The primer itself is not what causes the carbon scoring that takes place, where you hear about it's kind of like acid for blood. Once you shoot the primary type, the mercury type primers, the conversion creates the oxidant, which is more aggressive at scoring and rusting the metals. breaking down the metals. It's caustic. So what you need to do is remember that if you were to use the older type formula, you have to follow the older policy, which typically your best choice is to scrub with soap and water the barrel, and then after that go through the normal cleaning process. Because what you want to do is neutralize the carbon and the materials that are working to corrode the barrel. Now, of course, you use soap and water. Nobody likes to do that because, my God, it's a metal part. Yeah, but you're going to clean it off and you're going to dry it off. And then you're going to lubricate it. You're going to first do a regular barrel scrub the way you normally would and with POL, petroleum oil lubricant products. And then you're going to lubricate the barrel to protect it from further oxidation by not making contact with the air. But yes, you can reactivate those primers and we need to have what you need to be planning in advance now the best way to save them Take and pick out a nice Juice jug like these orange juice containers wash them out really good or you can use a gallon jug milk containers Of course, eventually they will break down But let's do a separate bottle There you go. And separate them by type now because you can do it while you're offloading, when you're reloading, you're going to be doing one type of primer. So now is the time to keep them separate. You don't want to have to waste time separating them later, although if you have to, you will. But primers are the weak point in ammunition as far as availability. So everybody needs to be thinking ahead. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Another thing, oh by the way, before I forget, on that very note, MontanaAR15.com, MontanaAR15.com, they did get some primers in. They don't do very much, but you might want to go check MontanaAR15AR15, that's MontanaAR15AR15.com. And also, as a matter of fact, I think, and slap me in the microphone if I'm wrong, Delta Teen Tactical, I think also had some primers. I believe those were small pistol, but I could be wrong. And again, they had a pretty good deal because it was a one, it looks like a one time out thing. They got a deal on something, they grabbed it, and they've got it in stock. and the price was reasonable. So check that out. Again, first Montana Air 15, which also had some .38 special ammunition here. I think they, somebody hit it real hard though, but there may still be some left. So if you're looking for .38 and you're running a .38 revolver, then you want to pick up more ammunition. Now, this brings me to one last subject for our, this hour, two hour block of weapons Wednesday. No matter what you shoot, No matter what you shoot, and this is also true with you AR-15 operators, there are two cartridges for instance in the AR-15 that I highly recommend right now. The 450 Bushmaster and also what is it, the 350? I think it's the 350 Bushmaster or 350 Wild. I can't remember offhand, you know, what the dust name is for it, but the .350 and the 0.450 chamberings. Why? Both of them are straight cases. Now, even though you have an AR in fact, I mean, well, Mark, you told me to get a 556. Yes, I did. And if you can, I highly recommend you either get that 350 or that 450 a straight case AR upper next, or at least have it in the inventory. If you are shooting 350 Legend, is that correct? Yes, and you can also buy it at Walmart. Thank you. Okay. Well, the reason I brought this up is because both of those cases could also be home built. One of the things we've got to think about is, you know, like Planet of the Apes kind of thing, right? Everybody goes, well, they've got all these guns in Planet of the Apes. Do you see any factories running? No. Do you think you'd eventually run on ammo? You think so. But let's say for future long-term use, straight cases are easier to build from scratch. Okay? So the 350 straight case would be, and again, 350 legend, thank you, appreciate it, I needed that information. And the 450 are both straight case, and think about it, the 350 I guarantee is the 357 diameter or 356 diameter bullet, what do you want to bet? And the 4.5 is 4.5, what is it? 4.5.4, 4.5, you know, 4.5.6. Does it make any difference if I'm casting lead? Not really. The big thing here again is that I can actually take rod and make on a lathe brass for my rifle. Now again with minimal effort because the neat thing about the straight case with a recessed ejector or ejector rit lip is that I can do a standard piece of stock. I can, number one, cut. I know what my lengths are. I can even be a little off because I can trim the case down. But what I'm going to do is tool out the extractor groove on the one end. I'm going to bore out the tube. And I'm going to center drill and step my primer pocket. In fact, if you get the right tooling in advance, for instance, the primer pocket would be cut both the primer shelf and the primer port. It could be cut with the same drill bit simultaneously. Because you can buy the step drill sets like that, a step drill a bit, so that it would, you have a jig. You step it so that it will, it's set to a specific depth and when you're done after you've made the case and you've cut it off from the stock, you would then do the rest of your finish work and you would have a thick wall case that would be stronger for multiple reloads. Well, what do I need that for? Well, way down the road if everything, you know, kind of wore out, Then things need to be cruder and a little straighter in order for them to be easier to build from aluminum You know you can make what brass forgive me you can make what we call brass You can make a case out of steel you can make it out of copper You can make it out of aluminum, and you can make it out of brass, and it does not have to be heated the old Okay, go ahead call your Japan there Can the 45-70 case be made the same way as a 450 Bushmaster? That's a simple straight wall case with a rim. Exactly. Yes, it would be. It would still... Now, the only consideration is remember that with all of your lipped, you know, rimmed cases, that your stock is going to be worked down so that you have that step for ejection purposes because it has to be able to set. In fact, that rim is actually the set for the case in the chamber. So the only consideration is your stock would be larger. You would actually use a tool, which by the way, the brass is not aggressive. So brass, aluminum, or bi-metal or copper to make a case. And by the way, for many years, copper was just as common as brass back in the depths of time for making cases. Remember, all your rimfire cases traditionally and typically were copper, not brass when they first started out. So any of those materials would work, and a straight case of any kind means that all you have to do is have a very simple cutting tool if you're going to be using a lathe, and you just have to know what your spec and dimension is. Your external has to be maintained. Your internal can be a little more variable. You can actually leave the case thicker at the base. The advantage of that would be that you'd have less distortion when you use the case. In other words, when it fires, that little blast pulse with thinner brass actually the case distorts and fire forms to the chamber. If it's a thicker wall, it'll distort less, but it will still fire form to the chamber. The advantage though is that you would have many, many more reloads with a much more expensive. By industrial standards, making a case this way would be more expensive. But if you're in a cruder environment, making a case this way would make more sense by the nature of how would you form the raw material? What would you do to end up with a final product? And a straight case means you don't have to try and come up with special curling or knurling or strike tools. Instead, it's just a straight production. And there are several different ways that that could be done. The most readily available would be conventional lathes of any kind that might be available. And for that matter, you could get away with doing it with a number of improvised tools, too. So this is one of the reasons to have straight case revolvers. Example of 38, 357. Any of those cases could be built from scratch. You wouldn't run out of ammunition unless you were really stupid. Just something to think about. And the thing is true for solutions with one rifle that can accommodate this, this idea is the AR-15 right now. Because it is a Lego rifle. Go ahead. What about the much shorter, the rimless 45 auto case? Can it be made from scratch or would it be more difficult? No, it would be, again, the regular pistol cases of any kind, they could be built. 9mm, 45 ACP, 32 ACP. In fact, there's no reason that those would ever run out of ammunition. Would it be more expensive to produce? Well, if you look at what the minimal cost is for doing, you know, production pistol cases, yeah, by comparison. But if I had nothing... It would be very easy to produce that case. First of all, I'd be cannibalizing, what we used to do for years is take rifle cases that were tired out and cut them down to 44 automags, 45 ACP. You know, there's a number of different cartridges out there where what we did is use a rifle case as the basis for replacement or for supplemental reloading ammunition. And again, keep the primers though. If you're going to reuse something, keep the primers. You're going to have to rebuild the primer that fits the primer pocket for the cannibalized brass. Okay, we're at the top. We got Craig for Moving Knowledge coming up next. God bless our republic. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire is on the run. We're on the mark, we're gonna take a break here for about an hour and to tell you what, by the way, don't forget to go over to Guns N' Gadgets, share today's Guns N' Gadgets. The Trump administration went pro-gun control. The Bondi Attorney General's office could have stopped this. They didn't because they liked what they were doing. They're trying to go after the ammo, they're trying to go after the guns. They're doing the soft squeeze because we're not supposed to pay attention to who's in charge. But they're all bragging about being in charge. Oh, so they got exactly what they wanted today. Trump got exactly what he wanted in an anti-gun decision today. We're out of here for now. We'll be back in one hour. Meanwhile, Craig from Forbid Knowledge, coming to next Liberty Free Radio. It is Wednesday. Bye-bye. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. To start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying the money spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to this. You read about the current use 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 give government control to you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country deep. 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, this is to send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom 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 fear and be a slave? Both 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, freedom burning bright, as Iowaw keep vanished in the midst of whence he came. His words were true, we're not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the evening intelligence report. I'm our corny. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, west and south. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org, and we're on WBCQ, the planet, 6.160 regular shortwave, SWBCQ, the planet, 6.160 regular shortwave, Monday through Friday, 8 to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. We're on satellite, and I want to say thank you to our rebroadcasters there who both listen and then rebroadcast virtually everywhere across the planet. And again, that is both analog and digital. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies inside and outside these United States beyond all of the others we mentioned. And it's Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 26th of March, 17th year of open, and so, oh, so obvious in your face. Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K 2025 Old Earth Calendar, give it all she's got, captain. 125% and 2025 Battle for the Republic. The Winter War, it's gonna drop down and get cold tonight. It's been very clear today, but cool air coming straight out of the north off the Hudson Bay all the way down through Lake Superior. And today, well relatively clear, will be bright and brilliant tonight if you're going to do any star searching and looking at the heavens with any kind of optics. But it's also going to get cold. So pay attention there, make sure you get cold weather gear with you. I do not want to hear about thermal casualties. Although again, it happens with other people, they're not my concern. Typically they aren't thinking, but for all of us, we know better. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Let's keep it that way make sure we're squared away ready to roll. So the Trump and the Bimbo AG got what they wanted with a anti-gun Supreme Court ruling today and of course pickle smoke and mirrors try to cover their tracks and But the Bondi AG, of course, this is the anti-gun agenda that they are part of. And the anti-gunners, the regime that presently is in power, got their way with a significant Supreme Court activity that should have never happened. Because Bondi is in charge of the AG's office and they proceeded with this course. They could have dropped it any time. They did not. That means this is what Donald Trump wanted and this is what this piece of trash out of Florida wanted. So the agenda is being demonstrated. Watch that left hand while it shakes a lot, but watch out for that dagger that's going to be right to your back step by step with the right hand. Pay attention people. There's more going on. Anyway, tell what we're going to do. Every hour we're going to play this Guns and Gadgets and if you could let's pull that up so it's in the archive for this hour too and That's over at YouTube Guns and Gadgets Jared It's there may be another one, but this is the one that came out during the day here Actually, I think the morning forgive me But if you get a chance go over there give the subscribe to the channel however long YouTube's gonna last Bondi versus Vander stock was decided today This is the ghost gun rule, frames and receivers that we've been waiting on. And it went just about as many of us thought it was going to go. The Supreme Court just dropped a bombshell 7-2 ruling. And if you're a builder of your own firearms at home, this decision directly impacts you. The ATF's overreach just got the green light, but not in the way you might think. If you're keeping score at home, every justice except Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito just sided with the ATF to uphold their frame and receiver rule. Before we dive into this massive case, make sure you hit the subscribe button so you don't miss a single beat when it comes to our rights, our gear, and our freedom. Stick around because you're going to want to hear what the Supreme Court had to say about this. Alright, let's rewind. The Gun Control Act of 1968 says that firearms include any weapon designed to shoot a projectile and, more controversially, the frame or receiver of such weapon. But here's the thing, technology has evolved and companies like Polymer80 and the like started selling parts kits that you could assemble at home. No serial numbers, no background checks, no licenses, just tools, some time, and some American spirit of independence. And the government, well, they freaked out. In 2022, the Biden ATF wrote the rule to treat these kits and unfinished lowers as actual firearms. And the government was sued under the Administrative Procedures Act, saying the ATF had no authority to do this. And the District of Court agreed. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed. They said that the law was crystal clear that parts kits were not firearms. Frames and receivers mean finished ones. But the Supreme Court? Yeah, about that. It just took a turn for the worst. Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the majority decision and he reversed the lower courts. The high court, the Supreme Court said this, actually yes, the ATF can regulate some parts kits and unfinished receivers as long as they can be readily converted into firearms. The court pointed out that polymer-80 kits and the like can be assembled into working pistols in about 20 minutes using tools that you have in your garage. And so the court ruled the ATF's interpretation isn't facially inconsistent with the law. In other words, it's not illegal on its face even if it could be abused down the road. So what does this mean for you? If you're building from an 80% lower, the ATF might now say you're building a firearm. If you're building a complete kit, you might now be required to go through a background check just like you were buying a Glock off the shelf. But... And this is critical. The court didn't give the ATF a blank check. They admitted there are limits. Not all parts, kits, or firearms. Not every unfinished receiver is covered. This is a legal battlefield now, folks. It's going to be case by case, kit by kit, lawsuit by lawsuit. And here's the spicy part. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented hard. Thomas said the court is rewriting the law to give bureaucrats power Congress never gave them He warned that if parts can be regulated as firearms were headed down a dangerous road Where freedom gets chipped away one regulation at a time and he's not wrong The ATF track record is filled with flip-flops and rule changes. Do we really want unelected officials deciding what counts as a gun? Sound off in the comments. Do you agree with the court's decision? Should the ATF have this kind of power? I personally think that they should be abolished at all costs. If you care about freedom, now is the time to stay informed and to stay active. Subscribe to Guns N' Gats, share this video with your Second Amendment buddies, and let us know in the comments how far should the ATF be allowed to go. Terrible ruling, 7-2 in favor of the ATF, the only justices that had their brains inside their melons. First Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas and like I said this went exactly how we felt it was gonna go if you were here when I covered the live stream of The oral arguments in the Supreme Court it kind of went the way I said it would at that point wasn't good Now we know take care Donald Trump's anti-gun agenda step one is in motion arbitrary and capricious activity will continue something that all the paper-pushing sniveling rats enjoy with a passion and will continue to do so now with Donald Trump and his Florida, Florida whore, Florida prostitute doing what they do to screw America. So again, what does this arbitrary and capricious act mean? Well, we don't know because each case is going to be case after case and year after year and all kinds of extra money wasted by the American people. because of the arbitrary capricious activity of the federal government. Everybody understand how that's going to work? And Donald Trump liked that. Donald Trump approves. Thumbs up. And his Bondi AG did exactly what the anti-gun twit was expected to do. So, number one, nothing has changed. Number one, there's nothing, you know... Is there anybody here going, wow, we never would have expected that this is exactly what we all expected, if you were thinking. Like I said, blowing the Golden Age Pickle Smoke and Mirrors BS up everybody's bumholes for the purpose of putting everybody to sleep while they're busy continuing to push a bled agenda is exactly what we got. We've got to call her. Who do we have? Paul in Tennessee. Did George, if I can remember, George Herbert Walker Bush did things similar to this, didn't he? Well, actually, he went the next, this is the beginning of what George Herbert Walker Bush did, yes. Step one was to create a a tippet environment for gun owners by specifically attacking all three elements, the private firearms owners, manufacturers, well, FFLs, and then manufacturers. The process of being able to use the ATF to arbitrarily act is most critical. Trump has set that up, and Trump's not the one in charge. It's Netanyahu and the Israelis that are in charge. The Israelis are going to do to America if they have their way, just as they did to their own people, and set them up for a big fall. We already have a big foreign invading army here, the illegal aliens. The purpose behind this is so that, as we saw with the, let's remember those two years worth of the Jewish mob burning down the country with their players on the Demikin side, with Antifa and BLM. When they set this up again, anybody trying to defend themselves can be arbitrarily attacked by the state or local elements which are hyper leftists, which by the way the Fed knows, Trump knows. So Trump is riding with his buddies. That's what's going on here. He's riding with the ones that got the ring through his dinkus and are dragging him around. And the fact that we had the Florida horror Do what it did is no surprise either because Florida has all kinds of already advanced legislation. You can't talk bad about the Jewish population because they're in charge and you can't talk about the ones that are in charge because they're the ones that are screwing everybody. And so all of the other elements including disarming the population step by step while you're busy looking at the pickle, smoke, and mirrors crap over in the other direction is what's going to be going on here. We're ahead of the curve. Okay, number one, one way or another, either they do it themselves or they set everything up just like 9-11. Okay, the Jewish mob did 9-11 with the CIA and whoever else, Mossad, CIA, whatever other configuration of other alphabet soup agencies fully cooperated to create the 9-11 scenario. The 9-11 scenario meant that the fake conservatives, the neocons, We're able to set all of the legislation up for the attacks at Obama and then Biden, which was Obama, that they used on the American people through what? The Patriot Act. Now we fought the Patriot Act repeatedly over and over again and won and beat it in the 90s. They tried three times to push it through, three times, intelligent conservative individuals stopped it. But once the Mossad and elements of the secret police created 9-11, completely dropping the guard of the country, helping to create the condition, and demolishing the buildings that were under attack both in Washington and New York, they then demanded that the Patriot Act be, which has nothing to do with patriotism and everything to do with the secret police being given greater power inside the United States. They then used that on the American people over and over and over and arbitrarily and illegally and unlawfully. Tapped phones, got special warrants and all kinds of crap that they lied over, dozens and then thousands and then tens of thousands of times. Which by the way eventually was admitted. Oh, but it's after the fact, after they did commit all those crimes. So what do you think the agenda is right now? Oh, it won't be Donald Trump. Oh, I think it still will be Donald Trump because I don't think they can wait. Again, the Titanic is still sinking. I could discuss, well, we will in a second. We can talk about the economic picture because how they can use Donald Trump to make him another Herbert Hoover, okay? Which he isn't and is. depending on whether or not he realizes, and maybe to a degree he does, maybe he doesn't care because again the Jewish mobs' buddies is not you and me, we're just peasants. The kosher mafia is the royalty. They believe that 500 or 600 of each of you are supposed to be their slaves once they get total power and the extra ones, the extras of us will be killed off. That's what they brag about in Israel right now. You want to watch videos on it? You can find them saying it with their own words. Okay? So since Americans don't like to be slaves, even though we got a bunch of lemmings that will pretty well do anything that the Trumpite tells them to for the moment, and probably will even after they go over the cliff, okay? In the meantime, we need to be prepared for the other foot that falls. And you know it's coming, it's not an F, it's just a win. So what needs to happen is, again, we need to properly square ourselves away. The most important aspect is that while weapon systems are going to change, basic defense systems are not. And the use of whatever basic defense systems we already have are just as useful today as they were 100 years in the past and will be out into the future because organics and mechanicals still are damaged by kinetic energy. In other words, pellet spitters. So we're going to use pellet spidders while we're also developing and using wave technology. Yes, lasers are eventually coming into play. You're not supposed to think about that. We've already been talking about it for decades. On that note, stuff that won't do you any good against kinetic weapons will work against wave slash and or laser technology because laser technology can be stopped. It's not as, it's no single weapon system is all capable of doing everything successfully. And in fact, the best way to explain this for any, ask anybody who's a tread head who's in armor. You don't have one bullet that does everything, so to speak. If you have a 105 main gun or a 120 main gun, you tell the loader what to load. Why? Because you have a variety of targets down range. And not everything that you have that's in the, not one bullet will do everything. Do you understand that? Not one weapon system will do everything. And under certain conditions, depending on what the system is that you're using, certain weapons projectile capabilities do work, and with others, not at all. This is why you have hash, hep, AP, you have discarding Sabo AP, you have all kinds of other variant mechanical rounds that are very sophisticated because of all the varying ways that you can defend yourself and the way that armor is built. With laser, ceramicized armor works flawlessly. But ceramicized armor, if hit by, for instance, an AP projectile, not even discarding Sabo, just solid AP, it'll punch right through like there's no tomorrow. Now, you can make layered ceramicized armor ceramic, literally what it sounds like, ceramic armor. The British are committed to that. But when you do, then if you have a wide variety of different shells at your disposal, yes, certain rounds will be completely stopped by ceramic armor. But the other rounds that are in your inventory will go through that ceramic just like butter. On the other hand, ceramicsized or in fact expanded ceramic or foamed ceramic will stop laser first time every time. Dead in its tracks. It efficiently dissipates the bit that will take the calorie buildup dissipate the heat and stop 100% Whatever's coming at you in the way of a laser weapon laser projection now if you if you use a grocery well Here's the thing to remember well mark if you pick it up laser. It'll do it blah blah blah Yes, just like if I think I'm going to use body armor like a vest to stop a 105 artillery round no shit It's like people go, well, your light armored vehicles won't stop an Abrams. No, but everybody cumulatively firing on an Abrams can kill it. But no, I'm not going to go head to head with any of my light armor against the biggest battle tank on the planet. Actually, no matter what it is, I'm not going to go against an MBT head on. I'm not that stupid. I actually was taught how to fight with the tools I have in the toolbox, which means I have to dance. which is why the first book that I did was called The Dance of Swords because that's exactly what it is. It's like a saber dance. It's not a head on head, butt your head against the other butt like the ram head, just keep pounding away at each other. That's not how it works at all. However, depending upon the scale of the weapon, And there will be a wide scale of different weapons, be they the wave technology, the laser technology, maser technology, which is already being used. I've actually had this conversation, I think that's what most of your light bulbs really are. They're not a pan LED. They're actually, most of your lighting is designed to disrupt or cause problems for you, and it's actually a maser plate. Which is why it's generating a whole bunch of frequencies you're not supposed to know anything about but they disrupt organic at organic processes So they're using a weapon on you right now. You don't even think about But conventional arms are no different you have wide ranges of different types of projectiles for wide scale You know everything from GE miniguns and after all people resist because they have G miniguns You know, so we don't have G miniguns mounted on everything you want to know why? Do you know how long the ammunition load up for a GE minigun lasts? Well, let me point something out. A GE minigun sounds really cool. 5.56, 7.62x51 NATO. But when you're burning 2,000, 3,000, or 6,000 rounds a minute, and you only carry 20,000 rounds of ammo, how many minutes of fire do you have sustained? Let me give an example. You know originally they thought the GE minigun was going to be the solution to everything. In reality it's pretty devastating. I don't want to get meat chopped by it. But you get you carried in a regular quarter-ton jeep trailer you had troughs that were built into the trailer and it carried 27,000 rounds in the standard quarter-ton jeep trailer of chained ammunition ready to run. Okay? You mount the minigun in a pedestal mount in a back of a quarter ton pickup of a three quarter ton Oh, forgive me five quarter ton pickup truck like a Dodge or a Chevy or a quarter ton M15 one Ford Mutt or in theory you could put a Humvee trailer in the back you got more room in that Humvee trailer But with the quarter ton Jeep trailer 27,000 rounds and the guns burning 6,000 to 9,000 rounds a minute So how many minutes of fire do you have through the night? 27,000 divided by, let's say, 6 is how many minutes? And you've got to be out there all night. But you only got that 27,000 rounds in the trailer, and maybe a few extra cans with 1,000 each, depending on how you've loaded out your vehicle. So you've only got so many minutes if you go ape-crazy with that thumb, and you go, whoosh, like you see in the movies, or they always show everybody just buzzing away. Well guys, you have to control that firepower, no matter what you have. Or you've only got so many minutes and then all of a sudden you're sucking vapors and all your little motor does is go BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Think about this, an aircraft. Everybody goes, well man, that helicopter, he's got a GE minigun in the helicopter. How many pounds of ammunition can you carry per gun if you have two door guns, no matter what they are? M60, MAG-58, or a GE minigun? And they do mount GE mini guns in the doors. That's pretty common now. Or you've got, again, 50 caliber BMGs. Those are out there. But how many pounds, how many rounds of ammunition can you carry? And they always show you videos where that door gunner's looking really cool going, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, Or is it a gunship slash I'll bet with door gunners for operating articulating, you know, control systems. In other words, be able to move the gun around and buzz the ground where they want to. How long can they sustain that? How long can they stay in the air? They're not there all day. Now I'm there for an hour. They can only be there for so long and then they have to retreat to refuel, regroup, and reef re-outfit. And if they take any kind of fire, they may not be coming back. You're not supposed to think about that. Remember, everything with all of these battlefield implements is still time and distance. And no, don't forget that with aircraft, the formula is weight and fuel. Granted, the more ammunition you burn, the more brass being dumped outside. So in theory, I guess you can stay a little longer, but what good does that do if you have no ammo? I mean, we weren't supposed to think about that one. See, Uncle Mark tries to make you think, this is where we're going into this whole thing. No matter what weapon system you use, you're going to end up with time and distance issues always. And again, throw weight as opposed to thrust. Those are basic twos that you have to always put in there, no matter whatever we're going to be working with. In our case, we're going to go with bullet spitters. We have laser. We have wave technology weapons, crude, rude, and low end. But, we also understand the basic concepts of all the rest of the macro wave over the horizon, wave generation technology. They're already using it on the population to a degree, targeting individuals to try and mess with their heads. Don't worry, we've seen it before. We monitor all the basic tech that's out there. So, what it comes down to still though is you put a boat in somebody's ass, they're just as dead today as they were 100 years ago. And 100 years ago it was 1925. It's not like we're talking way back when they were using muzzle loaders. 1925, almost every weapon system that we're presently using that's most reliable was already built and already in service and we're still using it. Ooh, that's kind of... Oh, then I guess that 100 years ago wasn't really obsolete, is it? No, no, it's not obsolete. Go ahead and call it real quick. We're at the bottom. What kind of damage would it do to the enemy? A 500 grain bullet and a 45-70. When you ask a question like that, nothing has changed with any of the weapons that you have. A 500 grain projectile going down range if it hits flesh is going to be just as devastating today as it was 140 years ago. Because the 4570, remember, was built for the trapdoor Springfield of post-Civil War period, the 1870s. In the 1870s, that round came into service. The 5070, the 4570, the 4590, there were a handful of cartridges that were experimented with. 4570 came out on top as the long-tooth conversion. And basically where it was first used is in the Trapdoor Springfield, which is where they took a Civil War era three band Springfield, brazed on, a well brazed on a chamber, a flip chamber, and all of a sudden they breed life into a muzzle loading rifle that became a cartridge firing gun in 4570. That's where the whole idea of the concept came from. Now they did rebarrow too, so you have a number of different cartridges of the same class. You get hit with that bullet down range, even with body armor. Even with body armor you're going to know you got hit by something. Ideally what you want to do is get good enough that whatever range you consider your average engagement range, you hit places where body armor isn't. And people go, well, that's an older gun that's not as accurate. Oh, Trapdoor 4570, that's actually a new production version. There's copies. There were all kinds of copies made in the 70s of almost all of the Civil War era repeating guns, including the Trapdoor Springfield. So you can get brand new modern metallurgy versions of the Spencer, the Trapdoor Springfield. The Henry, okay, which by the way is now reborn again, you see all the Henry rifles coming back out. All of these ideas work. It's just a different potential. They're not high velocity, but they do have a lot of weight going down range, so you get hit with a freight train instead of being hit with a nice pick. And down range they killed these buckles 500-600 yards and they had a heavy bullet going down range holding its energy, right? Right. It could be any one of a dozen different, well hundreds of projectiles back then that were in the long tube type black powder. Oh, the right, oh, the right, oh, in our hands of trifles, tried a goodly speed, he made no return of master. He forward-marts with speed, but he'll learn the facts much faster when you meet our mountain boys, and they'll leave their jobs dark. Glad you make what little noise, and always hits the mark. Oh, the right, oh, oh, the right, oh, in our hands, he will prove no trifles, he no grave at home, back across the grass. We are back, bottom of the hour. You are listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org and BCQ the planet 6.160 regular shortwave and I'll tell you what we're gonna do follow up with some CCR run through the jungle credence clear water revival run through the Jungle don't look back at me in other words you better get your butt in gear because the hunt begins Remember we are hunting our enemy harder then he thinks he's hunting us. So I highly recommend, as CCR said, you might want to run through the jumpback. And if you were paying attention to the very end of that song, you hear that really weird sound that kind of, you know, wow, why is that sound so strange? Well, if you can play the record backwards and you pay attention to the very end of that, It's an inversion. It was very popular back during that period of time to throw reversal pieces in like that and then for people to figure out what was I just listening to. Remember, I killed Paul. I killed Paul. I killed Paul. Oh, that's not another album, but The Beatles. That's right. So that period of time, unique stuff like that just to see a kind of brain teaser it could make for people and who would pay attention and actually do a little work. A little research anyway. So, red rum. Red rum. Red rum. You ever played red rum backwards? Red rum. Red rum. Red rum. Well, it sat backwards. Oh, yeah, that's right. Now, check it out. You can figure out how to do it. Anyway, this is LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org, and WBCQ, the planet, 6.160, regular, shortwave. Call her. We gotta call her. Who do we have? Go ahead. Red rum is murder spelled backwards, I think. Of course it is spelled backwards, but here's what's funny. Actually, when you say it, red rum, if you play it backwards, it says murder. You can't do that with most words, okay? But you can with murder. Red rum. You say red rum. Murder. Whoo! That's kind of scary. Just a heads up. And remember, that's from The Shining. Everybody should recognize that. Remember, that's from the movie The Shiny, which was, of course, a book. Read the books. They're always better than the movies. It's like Black Hawk Down. Ignore the BS propaganda with Black Hawk Down. It's got imagery. It's like Lord of the Rings. Yeah, when you watch Lord of the Rings, there's some really cool imagery or like The Hobbit. But the storyline is totally screwed up and totally leftist. They intentionally inverted everything that Tolkien tried to present. They inverted everything. They do this with all of them. The author's intent with Black Hawk Down. Go watch the movie. But before you do it, go read the book, especially the preamble to the book, and then you'll appreciate just how much of a lie the movie is. Kinda got the spirit in there, but if you pay attention to what the author's intent was and what they did with the two different worlds, they kinda had to temper it because the guy who was the author, they were still alive. When Tolkin did the BS with the Lord of the Rings, Tolkin was dead and his sons were barely hanging on. So they could get away with anything they wanted and guess what they did, which is why Tolkin never wanted to sell his work to Hollywood. And why most artists know better because they know what happens to what they tried to express as opposed to what was created by the kosher mafia in Hollywood who always flipped the stuff on its ear. And it's really overt right now. Everybody's talking about Snow White. Well, there's an example of the worst extreme. But don't worry, it's not much better with the rest. It's just you're not supposed to think about it. So anyway, before we go any farther here, again, I want to remind everybody, weapon systems. Remember, the defense is always cheaper than the weapon. It's just they don't want you to think about that. And for that reason, I will remind you again, here's a book I want you all to seek out and find. It is the original field fortifications, field fortifications, FM5-15. You can get this in digital form, but if you do have it, print it out. If you can order a copy of it, get a copy of it. Field fortifications, you know it's really cool. You can take all the information in here for the temporary construction of defenses. And if you apply permanent construction methods, the defensive position is even stronger. Remember that field fortifications, although they do obviously demonstrate the use of combat engineer methods and technologies, but for the most part, combat operational construction is done with junk. Example, if you pay attention, in fact, go look at the videos in the imagery from a few years back at the beginning of the Ukraine conflict, the Ukraine war. Okay? If you pay attention, you'll notice that anything that came forward became building materials. That's typically what happens because you have a repetition of the same junk coming forward that may not be reused. Ammo crates, not ammo cans, although ammo cans are usually, again, eventually pressed into service too. Ammo crates are phenomenal building material because they were already designed to do two things. Number one, they stack well, don't they? You ever notice how ammo crates have slats on the top and slats on the bottom? But what else is great about ammo crates? Ammo crates can take weight. Well, oh, that's right. When you see a pallet of ammunition, how much does a single case of ammunition weigh? So there isn't anything that you're going to put in that ammo crate in the way of gravel or sand or dirt. And you want dirt-sand combination, or it's just a gravel combination because you want the aggregate in there. You want the pebble, the rock, the pieces of stone. That helps to dissipate the energy of bullets as they try to pass through or fragmentation. But what's really neat is that the ammo crates Well, if you load them up with dirt, you can't put enough dirt in there, even if you pack it in to match the weight of a 50 caliber ammo can times however many fit in that crate, full of lead and brass. And lead is awfully stinking dense, isn't it? You ever pick up an ammo crate? What's the average ammo crate weight? Well, you know what? I'm going to tell you something. If you actually pay attention, the actual weight of that loaded ammo crate is written on the box. There's no guessing. Why do they do that? Well, because if you have a deuce and a half or if you have a military truck or if you have an air transport, they can't guess about the weight. They need to know how much they can put on before they overburden the vehicle. It doesn't mean they can't overburden the vehicle, but the idea is why do that when you have multiple transports? You use common sense. You don't overwear anything. But the neat thing is that crates, pallets, all that stuff can be pressed and will be pressed into service in a battlefield situation. However, if you're preparing an area and you're going to conceal, which we do a lot of, you're going to conceal fortifications effectively to eliminate thermal identification or earths type identification from above by contouring and building the terrain so that the topsoil is topsoil and the subsoil isn't exposed. Well, you can end up with an even tougher defense network. And since we plan on keeping our piece of real estate and holding it as we or abandoning it as needed, building permanent fortifications utilizing the fortification methods demonstrated in FM 5-15 is quite useful. So I highly recommend that you get a copy of the older Field Fortifications FM. It is FM 5-15. They did change the name of it, who cares? Apparently for the sake of changing the name. It's like, why did they change it? Well, because some dumbass felt that we had to give it a new name to make you feel like you're in a different environment with regard to field fortifications. But the fact is that nothing changed. The basic rules about how to prep and prepare defensive structures and standoff, the use of again, layers of sandbags and defense. Yes, there are still devices that can get through. Guess what? Congratulations, you're on the battlefield. It's a killing field. That's what happens. It's why it's not the first best place to be. But if you're going to build up an area, see kind of like what you see in the Middle East. Your best bet is to be prepared in advance, re-revet bunker in and fortify specific locations, conceal the fact that they are, which gives you an edge. In other words, it looks just like it's always looked on the outside, but it isn't the same on the inside. Or for that matter, anything you build, you want it to look or appear to be normal construction when it isn't. And again, take a look at the information available there. You'll understand how easy it is to actually stop mortar rounds and even light artillery or intermediate artillery. And rocket artillery is actually quite easily stopped because it's no more impressive than conventional shell artillery. It's just they can drop more on it. So you better have better overhead protection and more of it. and be ready to repair it. Another thing about most of your locations, if you're going to build up fortifications or if you're going to build a fallout shelter or a blast shelter, whatever, guys, you need pioneer tools inside wherever you're going to take cover. This means entrenching tools or shovels. This means even picks and other tools and whatever you can collect more for less like free or cheap. You do that and you disperse those tools so that they're readily available if they are needed. Prior, proper planning, prevents, piss, poor performance. This is why in movies they don't show you things like this because the assumption is you're just gonna run down into that hole and then all of a sudden, well, when you don't calculate properly the things that can go wrong, you end up in a very bad situation. Now no matter what, you may still end up in a very bad situation, but you have the ability to get yourself out of it or at least a fighting chance. So, this is why you need pioneer tools in force. You need to bury with food, material, and equipment the tools necessary to continue to be able to function when everything else fails. And you might be on the inside when that happens. You need to be able to get out again. So, again, just think that through. Also, personal entrenching tools. There are a number of solutions, big and small. We're of the school, I am, everybody I've trained. We carry the E-Tool with us in whatever form is standard for the unit or the personal choice of the individual. But an E-Tool is just exactly that, a critical tool in your infantry component or for that matter any of your militiamen or fighting forces or even for personal or civil defense. The entrenching tool is priceless. Everybody can pitch in if everybody has a tool. See how that works? It all can be part of the workforce when the time comes. And or again, dealing with rescuing, saving, and securing people's lives. Prior property planning prevents piss poor performance. So the E tool is a priority. Other things somebody asked was ceramicized armor. Ceramic, literally ceramic tile type armor, but foam ceramic is something that has been around for, oh hell, probably what, 60 years, 70 years? And what it is is that ceramic can absorb the energy and will not break down as quickly because it can dissipate the energy that's collected, the jewels that are collected at the point of contact with a laser. Now, there's other types of materials that are used, but ceramic is still one of the best. Most efficient, but also cost efficient. In other words, your cost of defense is always cheaper than the cost of the weapons system. Doesn't make any difference what it is. A sandbag does most of the work to be quite honest, just as well. But again, one thing about foam ceramic is that it can be moved in panels so it can be deployed with weapons systems. The example is with energy or laser type systems. You can move ceramic armor forward to actually protect against incoming laser or incoming energy type technology. If you add other materials, you can also use it for defense against wave technology. And what we mean by that is using the same type of anti-wave, anti-magnetic materials that are used, for instance, for EMP protection on aircraft. We have many, many miles of the add-on anti-EMP. It shields against wave technology coming in, especially when they use it for anti-personnel incandescent activities, where they beam on a location like a house or a part of a house or whatever. They do not have the same, they don't have the anticipated effect, but we also don't advertise it. You just let them keep doing what they're doing so they don't realize they're wasting their time. Because we have all the monitoring technology to observe and identify that threat. Also, frequency counters in all of the up and down balances of the spectrum of the radio communications and radio tech. So anyway, by the way, one more thing real quick. I want to do this before we run out of time. I don't want to rush. Guys, you'll notice, as I've said several times, and I want to keep rubbing this in, they don't want you to look at the ascent of Air Force One. Have you noticed this? They happened to get today, they were showing images of Air Force One, I don't know if it was canned or something from today, but it was a totally different batch of images and you'll notice they keep cutting the ass end off of Air Force One when they show you any video images of it for social media or television. Now, what's fascinating about this is, don't you think that the Russians know about that technology? Don't you think that all the spy networks know about that technology? The only people that they're hiding that laser from is the American people, the first perceived enemy of government. I've always explained to you, remember, the first perceived enemy of the police state is the American people. And so, in all of these images when they're close up there, they're cutting off the ass-end of Air Force One. You can see it from the left, from the right, from the front, from the back. But the assent is going to get cut off every time until it gets to the point where it's farther away and they blur the image with the cameras or told to. I'm sure they are now because I've seen enough repeat of it. But the only people they're hiding that technology from are you. The American people are considered the enemy. The American people by this government are considered the enemy. The American people by this government are considered the enemy. Why? Well, because anybody else is actually looking for that and needs to see it. The Russians, the Chinese, the Israelis, of course, they stole it out the back door. Hell, they were there when everything was put in and they stole it out the back door and they've got it already over in Haifa, Tel Aviv, and they probably sold it to China. But as far as taking images, well, come on. Anybody with a camera, anywhere that's within line of sight can take digital imagery with the best possible government provided from whatever government wants to see it. So the only people that they don't want to see it are the American people. And you're not supposed to know about it or think about it, although the other laser nacelles on Air Force One are quite obvious. But that tail gun assembly, if you pay attention when it gets farther out on the runway, you'll notice that the ascent of Air Force One looks very different now. And has for quite some time. But they're being so overt, and there's no purpose except that the American people are perceived as the enemy. Because every other spying organization, they've got pictures from below, from the back, from the side, from above, with satellite, with everything else you can imagine, and as close up as they want to be. Because don't you think that ground crews and anybody that's around that airport, that there aren't spies all through that mechanism that a government has allowed there? Because you know how many stinking illegal aliens are working on airports right now? How many illegal aliens they got working baggage and air air maintenance etc that they got snuck they've snuck in under the table So you're telling me you think that the Chinese spy with the high digital, you know best quality camera didn't already take all the stinking pictures from across the tarmac that he wanted to The only reason that they're blocking it is because the American people are considered the enemy That's why good call her jump in there work the weed of people. Yeah, that's the corp. Yeah, the corporation has already declared war on us back in 1933. Remember that, the War Powers Act, which is the other reason that the official series of war of executive orders are being generated to the level that they are and why neither side is talking about really getting rid of them. They might piss and moan about the executive orders. But the whole purpose of these executive orders existed because the corporation of the United States is implementing actions against the sovereign people of the United States as a warring faction. And so dictatorial orders by an imperial type liget are exactly what's being done. Because they have been and they know that they are at war with the American people and they ain't gonna stop. In fact now the kosher mafia that implemented this back in 33 by strong arming one part of the government is now permeating all the rest of the government creating a ZOG environment, Z-O-G. So I think everybody can see that if you step back and you know, look at the big image. Look at the big picture. I mean, we all do. And notice I'm not excited, but we all know this. We need to be prepared for it. So build another AR-15 or buy a rifle that you prefer. Some weapons are going to be parts hard. Let me put it this way. There are some very sophisticated new weapons. What happened to the scar rifle? It's still out there. If you had a scar, all the parts are proprietary. So how long could you actually maintain it? The AR-15, the AR-10, or many of the other older military arms for the purpose of longevity in service are a better choice than many of the newest weapons available. Now, if you do choose those, I'm not going to complain. Whatever you show up with, make sure you know how to fight with it. Make sure you know how to make it safe. That's what we need. We're at the top. Everybody out there, God bless. Out Republic. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And we are on the march for day and night. We're gonna kick him to the slaps, beat him down hard, and we'll let him get back up. And when they try, beat him down until they can't get up anymore. We're gonna have a fight. We fight to win. Go share tonight's Johnson's gadgets with everybody. The Trump administration got the decision they wanted from the Supreme Court. They show their anti-gun positions. They continue to maintain it because the mafia should have pulled that and it would never have been before the Supreme Court. They let it rise because it's anti-gun, which means it's anti-Americans, and that's what the kosher mafia wants. We're out of here for now. It's taking over for El Tarequeville. Thank you to WBCQ, 6.160, a regular shortwave for having us up. Bye-bye.
