Guess it does not matter in the end.
NWI is use to being 'left behind' on all sort of issues both at the state and federal level.
Im not knocking project appleseed over leaving us.
We are overall a 'depend on .gov help' population in this corner of the state.
Majority speaking...

I dont think we are left behind. I think the fact that many things don't come here to NWI because the people are lazy or just don't care. I am not one to be talking too much, but as a whole we can talk a whole lot about what we can and want to do, but how many do it? How many say that something cannot be done because of (insert excuse here) and when you offer to provide that it becomes (insert second excuse here). Honestly we are lazy and like to talk, but when the time comes everyone backs out.

Anyone have any wheel guns your looking to unload? I'm in the market for one, not sure what I want. I do know I'm looking for a 357. I currently have a Henry Big Boy 357 on order, not sure when it'll come in. I'd prefer stainless with wood grips, unless someone has something awesome like a royale Phoenix they're looking to sell.

My 74 charter arms in 38spl?

I just got back from helping set up the GP medium tent and the archery and airsoft range areas for the event... You guys should come on out...



There will also be a Front Sight Firearms instructor there and Guns Saves Lives are suppose to be there also... John Boch is their spokesman and another firearms instructor.. Jim Jones from Live Free will be there also and he is a EMT and was the Director of EMS for Scherwin Williams with the best OSHA record the company has ever had... Along with a gentlemen who is running a aquaponics farm locally that produces enough vegetables and fish to supply some of the food chains in the area...

Does anyone have a extra Butt Plate / Finger Extensions for a Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 9mm & 40 Caliber Compact that maybe looking to let go of?

Contact S&W. They should send you a free one if you have a mag without one.

Man, its too bad "three strikes of a match" is being told spread out in 3 sessions over a 5 hour period... I'd love to take my kids but their attention span won't last that long... I do want to take my son for some of the NWI prepares event while my daughter is at a play date...

Does any one have a schedule??

Meetup.com is where they post that if we are referring to the same nwi preppers. Or their email list.

I firmly believe that NWI is a black hole for training. Work, laziness, priorities, I don't know why NWI doesn't train. Other areas do train with all of those obstacles anyway.

This isn't aimed at anyone in particular, just an observation.

This sounds like fun. Hope I can make.

Watching WAKE FOREST -vs- ARMY football.

Neither team has a defensive line. I'd bet both teams would be challenged by a good high school varsity team. Its almost painful to watch.
