"Age and treachery will beat youth and hubris every time"... Beware of the "Boomer", he's seen and dealt with your kind before...

My point is YAWN- BORED WITH STRIKER-FIRED PLASTIC PISTOLS. Got a PROBLEM with that?

That's my plan too... wouldnt last a week "on the Road"... How some ever, one molotov to the roof would clear us out...

HAWHAW! Shoulda got Glock!

Yet another Glock-rip-off striker-fired... YAWN....

Now that you mention it, I have heard that windex works well but have never tried it IIRC. I have tried straight ammonia tho- and mixed with water- it worked well. I tried mixing it with straight water cuz the straight ammonia stench really gets to me.

I have read that the corrosive primers last longer than non-cor... is this the case? Any comments? I've personally fired some late ww2 nazi (Czech-made- steel case, steel jacket) corrosive stuff that was dyn-0-mite well into the 2010's.. anyone else?

Having fired a lot of mil-surp corrosive, (I collect and shoot mil-surp firearms, and stacked surplus ammo high and deep when it was widely available and cheap) I recommend the hot soapy water... run the patched rod up and down the barrel (breech-end) while the front of the barrel is submerged...

It certainly is arguable that the Panther was the finest tank of the war after Kursk when the bugs were identified and worked out in subsequent production. Hitler insisted that it be rushed into production the counter the T34 and was disastrously fielded too early at Kursk before the serious...

J-Frames are only ONE of my revolver/pistol types. They are small and still a relatively powerful caliber (.38sp). I pocket-carry a J-Frame as a rule, (when I go out). I don't carry at home- no need cuz a firearm is never far away around here- less than a foot from my hand as I type. My favorite...

That's a real nice unit- very clean.. even with the conversion it's a real piece of history.

Those Jap rifles, assuming they're in "cared for" condition, are actually excellent rifles.. used to see a few vet bring-backs in the deer woods in the '60's and early '70's. Generally accurate and hard-hitting even in the 6.5, one of the strongest actions out there. Wish now that I'da picked up...

I know where to get one of those, in working order. Brought home by a vet of the Pacific War. It's not an M60 (I date myself!) but it would dump a few rounds in a pinch, eh...

The old B.S. Handbook was chock full of woodcraft info I havent seen anywhere else- mine disappeared for parts unknown at some point in my life... Tappan was useful in picking a good rifle and stocking up on foods and other supplies we don't usually think about in our day to day lives- like...

The Boy Scout "Handbook For Boys"- early edition, probably later 1940's... I about wore my old copy out growing up. Later the Mel Tappan "Tappan On Survival", along with other of his writings... Tappan had a great effect on my prepping ideas and activities. Another book, a novel, was "Farnham's...

Useful choices in that environment!

Excellent advice^^^^^ Even a .22 rifle with that brick of 500 .22LR cartridges could make a difference. Even a functioning .22 pistol. Some suggest a .22Magnum, but at the cost of the rifle and ammo you would be close to what a 5.56 AR would cost... Anyway even a .22LR could make all the difference.

I've pondered the 10mm- Glock, HiPoint, or XDm... cash outlay for ammo has put that off indefinitely, besides I'm into .40S&W pretty deep.

What's not to like about the XDm 10mm?

Isnt it illegal to shoot at drones, even private ones? Something about FAA rules IIRC?
