***SOLD!***
I have a mostly stock, low-mileage SA Range Officer in .45 ACP for sale or trade. Round count is somewhere in the neighborhood of 50-70 rounds. Only modification is the standard 1911 trigger job, as the stock setup was in the neighborhood of six pounds, kinda gritty, and with...
In addition to essential oils, you guys may enjoy this light reading: Military Medicine
Most of this is focused on keeping your patient(s) alive until they can be evac'd and has been proven in the field countless times.
Winchester Model 12 and Ithaca Model 37 come immediately to mind. I've had several of both but only the Ithaca in an honest-to-God military configuration. Letting go of that one kinda haunts me. :nuts:
From Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part One we read, as spoken by Falstaff, "The better part of valour is discretion; in the which better part I have saved my life."
I would argue there is no material item in your home genuinely worth killing or dying over. Hence, many times it is better to...
Some of my thoughts on what's been posted so far::
However not including the rest of the family in your practice could prove harmful if you ever did need to put your gear and skills to use. The remainder of my my family will remain in a static defensive position. The wife will barricade and...
A contingency plan? I think a crowbar or broken mop handle against a shooter should be classified as a suicidal last-ditch effort. A contingency plan would be more along the lines of this:
The whole concept of "run for your lives" or "hide and wait to die" leaves a very unpleasant taste in my mouth. These so-called active shooters go about their business secure in the fear of their victims. What always seems to happen the instant they encounter an armed response? They turn the gun...
I'm fairly certain that crows are more intelligent than many humans. There's a large flock of them whose range includes my property and listening to the complex conversations they have amongst themselves and watching their daily goings on, 007's performance in the video isn't all that...
That is good stuff, right there. Thanks for taking the time to post pics! Can't say as I like winter camping, but I've done quite a bit over the years and it is fun to talk about when you're inside and warm.
I would sign up for anything beyond the standard Run-Hide model. I'm quite capable of handling myself in a hostile situation but as VERT pointed out, I may learn something new and innovative from any training I sit through!
At least we're dealing with these folks whose primary strategy seems to be shouting, flapping their arms, and babbling incoherently over something they know near to nothing about. The original AWB was as dumb as a bag of hammers and solved exactly nothing statistically, aside from tripling the...
Not really terrifying in any sense of the word. I think sad is a better descriptor. Sad the inhabitants of our nation have devolved to the point that many don't recognize the foolishness of his words.
Seems like "raise the floor" is de Blasio's "common sense." Say it over and over until the...
Clark State Forest. I've stayed there several times and don't recall ever seeing any kids. May be worth a shot for you, but it's right at the edge of your range, I think.
