    Writing the post as we speak but getting tired will cut and paste it tommorow.

    Looking for a good pistol.....

    If you have a gun range where you can pay to try different firearms you might do that just to see what's comfortable. The important things are that you are comfortable with the handgun So you will actually carry it if you wish and that you get training. Hypothetically I'd rather have you carry...

    carrying a concealed weapon now that Christians are targets

    Ooh.....ouch. Yea that's a tough one. I think it's terrible that you are forced to essentially volunteer to be a victim at your workplace. The odds are of course slim that anything will ever happen but taking your right to self protection away is an ugly thing. Any free man who has not committed...

    The Tomahawk, the other blade you should carry

    In the last few years I've been suprised by how this ancient weapon has become so indispensable and useful. I first began training with and issuing it to my guys about 2006. At first it was just to those who wanted to carry one but I now really push having one on your side or back. It's use in...

    The FN FAL, the right arm of the free world

    The great thing about the FAL is that it turns cover into concealment. The 5.56 just doesn't get good penetration, even heavy foliage can create issues for it but the .308 will travel through a lot of things and do it farther out. The FAL does have a BAR personality that was a good way to put...

    The FN FAL, the right arm of the free world

    That really depends on what your seeking. The AR is a fine system, I'm not a fan of it but that's my issue from working in laces where the range if the 5.56 is to limited for me. I'm betting that the AR you have is just fine for what you want unless you want more power and range. If your...

    carrying a concealed weapon now that Christians are targets

    That can be an issue, if you park on public property you can keep a truck gun in the vehicle legally (depending on state laws). If your employer is a private one and not a government entity you might just ask to carry. If you show them your CCW and you have worked there for sometime they might...

    Straight men: Would you have sex with a Transgender "woman"?

    No, let's put aside that I'm married and it would still be no. Does this mean I couldn't be his/her friend? Of course not but I know he's a guy, he was born a guy, God said certain things that lead me to believe that's not a lifestyle he appreciates so I try not to make the creator of the...

    The grey man, operational security or OPSEC

    one of the things my company does is facilitate people or family's move from a bad state to a safe state. People often need to just get space between themselves an an ex or a stalker or they just realized when the grid gos down Los Angeles is a death trap. Often the folks we help are trying to...

    The FN FAL, the right arm of the free world

    850 for a FAL if it's in good shape is a pretty good deal. They are really simple operationally so If it's smooth to rack and looks like it's been cleaned I'd go for it. I do have connection though with a lot of FALS for sale (my company actually still employs them in field) and I get quantity...

    The FN FAL, the right arm of the free world

    Yup, adjustable gas block for various ammo and how dirty the rifle gets. Also (although I've never seen it) a grenade launcher supposedly so you would need it to essentially be a bolt action of sorts. I've shot everything through mine from cheap stuff to hand loads and I've used it over seas as...

    Inventory of the stocks

    I'm to super lazy to do it your way or the right way....I have so much to keep track of already that I got into the habit of buying Mountain House #10 cans by the case. Solved a lot of issues for me as MH#10 cans if stored correctly are good for 25 plus years but also each case has a date...

    The FN FAL, the right arm of the free world

    The FN FAL is classified as a Battle rifle, it fires the 308/7.62x51 which is a full size, full power round. Called "the right arm of the free world" because it was used by over 90 countries and often found itself fighting insurgent communist forces who were equipped with the AK47/74. The FAL...

    christians and guns

    This would have been better posted in the Christian prepping section. You are wasting time arguing with people who don't even have similar faith systems or any faith at all. If you want an honest talk about Christians and guns you need to post this thread in a Christians only section. If you...

    Why so much opposition to Prepping?

    Prepping reminds people that things can go wrong, people don't like that. Some people hate buying life insurance or writing a will, same reason it's reality. Many people thrive on a huge normalcy bias, anything that intrudes on that is to much to consider. Our society specializes in creating...

    New Prepper needs advice

    Food: Good, storable food that will last 30 plus years is worth the money. Wise foods isn't known for its quality, shelf life or taste. The gold standard of long term storage is Mountain House foods. They were a pioneer in freeze drying foods and they are great at what they do. The complexities...

I'm not going to cover...

    Scared I am not Born Again

    If you truly meant what you said when you repented and accepted Christ and became reborn then your fine. God heard you, he saw what was in your heart. Gods not a lawyer looking for a loophole to deny you his love, he wants you to be happy. Jesus said "fear not and be of good cheer" by living in...
