Odds ‘n Sods:

I heard that James at Gun Parts Guy (one of our advertisers) is running a big Labor Day sale on FAL and L1A1 parts and manuals. There are some great items such as complete metric replacement spring sets, bolts and bolt carriers, scope mounts, and stock furniture. The sale ends on September 6th. If you own a FAL or L1A1, or clones thereof, then stock up! OBTW, for owners of other .308 Winchester / 7.62mm NATO rifles: one of the items that James has on sale is .308 ruptured case extractors. You should have one of these for each rifle that might ever be used for self defense. Tell him that Jim Rawles sent you.

John Adams mentioned: Honda to put focus on diesel, not ethanol

I just started reading the much-awaited novel Domestic Enemies“, by Matt Bracken. (He was also the author of the speculative novel “Enemies Foreign and Domestic“, which I greatly enjoyed.) This one is set slightly farther in the future and describes the “Reconquista.” I will post a full review once I’ve finished reading the book. Nothing but great stuff, thusfar!
