“Gun control by definition affects only honest people. When a politician tells you he wants to forbid you from owning a firearm or force you to get a license, he is telling you he doesn’t trust you. That’s an insult… Gun control is not about guns or crime. It is about an elite that fears and despises the common people.”? – Syndicated Columnist Charley Reese (1937-2013)
Many folks assume, when I tell them I was in the U.S. military, that I was in at the time when they still had a mounted unit– horses! Nope, I’m not quite that old just yet. Back when I was in the military, we had some boring OD green equipment. Everything was OD green in color– our uniforms, A.L.I.C.E. geat, well, just everything, except out boots, and they were all leather, which we had a shine on the toe that you could see your reflection in, plus something almost unheard of today. You could actually have your boot re-soled. In …

Do magazine springs lose power when loaded for years? o o o Among the more than 31,000 Wikileaked John Podesta e-mails, there is this gem, that shows the purely putrid perfidy of the Clinton camp. I think that is now time Mr. Podesta’s surname to become a noun. In honor of Washington DC’s new daily ritual, I’d like to coin a new word: Podestian.

My special thanks to SurvivalBlog reader A.P., who kindly sent me the gift of an autographed hardback copy of Robert A. Heinlein’s 1982 novel titled Friday.

I began my quest to become self-sufficient in a bug out situation sometime around the end of 2004 or the beginning of 2005. My first purchase, if I recall was a gravity fed water filter and a small solar battery charger. The old saying that one can live three weeks without food but only three days without water, in hindsight is what drove me to that purchase. I don’t regret buying it to this day, but the chances that it will be with me in a true bug out situation, are slim to none. Before I go any further I …
Dear Editor: The upcoming Presidential election is cause for concern. As an avid daily reader of your awesome blog, I would highly encourage those out there to buy those full capacity, or really any magazines that they need today. Not tomorrow, right now. Now! Stop reading the blog for a few minutes and find what you need. Some sellers are already selling out of AR-style magazines. Ruger factor-made 10/22 BX-25 (25-round) magazines are presently available at one of the major outdoor retailers online for less than $20 each. As an example: HK G3 alloy 20 round magazines (for HK91 rifles …

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: …
