I don't mean this to turn into a bash cops thread. But the next time someone says well only police can be trusted with guns....... Show them this video. This guy has no business being anywhere near a gun or in uniform of any kind. This guy is an absolute menace and danger to everyone near...

My BS detector is going off and I'm concerned why ice cream grandpa wants to suddenly make some sort of address to the country. Something bad is about to happen.

Interesting prediction he makes a pretty good argument for why we are heading down a very similar path that led to the French revolution. Honestly it's something I hadn't really considered. And this guy is "middle of the road" politically so his opinion is interesting since he isn't a strong...

The Ukrainian grain deal is kaput, so there goes 20-30% of global wheat and grain. Now, India is banning the export of rice (20-30% of global rice) https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/indias-rice-export-curbs-puts-contracts-2-mln-tons-risk-trade-2023-07-21/ And you have countries that...

So my brother showed this clip to me. Never heard of this guy before but I'm super interested now He's catching up to desantis in polling already Definitely love what he has to say in this clip. I'll be really paying attention going forward, he has piqued my interest.

I've never given much thought to a 5.7 pistol especially in the people's republic you can't take advantage of the awesome capacity but they sure do seem fun.

Holosun 407a on sale for father's day weekend for 189$ with discount code hs407 applied to cart I think it's essentially the same as a 407c but without the solar. Without the code its on sale for 219. With code its 189.

This case will have major safe act implications. The state in honor of the evil racist attack on the tops in buffalo is suing mean arms because their magazine locks are too easily defeated. I don't think it's much of a stretch to say this will be the biggest safe act case in years. God...

So... I'm really tempted to finally give in and buy my first Glock. I don't own any Glocks as of yet. I think I've narrowed down my choices to a g48 mos or a g19 mos. I think the g48 (in NY for us peasants) is just as capable as a g19 seeing as how I can't legally take advantage of the g19s...

The same "I hope they serve beer in hell" guy has evolved quite a bit. He makes a lot of really solid observations and thoughts. https://tuckermax.com/doomer-optimism-what-i-see-coming-how-im-preparing/

This channel has steadily been rising in my YouTube preferences. I have. Similar sense of humor and its a good informative channel. Lots of really good content

This might be worth watching. https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/ecuador-confirms-first-human-bird-020059675.html Avian flu is no joke. This would be devastating if it ever reached the level of community transmission.

What is wrong with these people, they are once again showing who they really are. They are big mad that there is a bill which would mandate providing care to infants who are born alive during a botched abortion procedure. Let that sink in. They are upset a living breathing American infant will...

Well it's been too quiet in this forum, we need some more doom and gloom. I want to talk about some weird maybe coincidental stories that no one is either talking about or linking. Some of these may be connected, some are not...

What is your one pistol that you own that you are planning on trusting in whatever type of SHTF, WROL situation you envision unfolding? I'm just talking outloud here but I'm starting to rethink that guns like a p365xl / 365 macro and the glock G48 might really fill a good role. They're bigger...

Many of us here have been talking exactly about this topic. We realize how big of a threat it is. IMO it's likely going to be the basis for ww3 and/or economic collapse.

Does anyone here have a g44 or p322? Just looking for some first hand feedback if you've owned them and your opinions. I'm thinking a .22 should be my next pistol purchase and they have caught my attention more than other models have.

I'm becoming more interested in the p320 series. I was initially very suspect of them and admittedly their trigger 'upgrade" issues freaked me out. But it seems to be resolved I haven't heard of any crazy incidents of drop firing or similar. I like that sig keeps innovating and staying at the...

I'm Bored so let's have a hypothetical discussion about SHTF zombie apocalypse. We live in NY and most of us are not LEO so our options are limited. What guns do you place the higher emphasis and importance on. Which guns do you see as being the most useful, practical, valuable. Pistols...

https://www.yahoo.com/news/ohio-police-fatally-shoot-unarmed-003757956.html Well it was nice knowing you Columbus.

I don't think we have a thread focused on homesteading yet, and from multiple other threads I think there are enough people interested in learning more so maybe a stand alone thread is a good idea. I think the concept is becoming much more appealing now than ever. I'll start

Beretta just released their apx gen 2/2.0 etc I'm hoping it gets some love. IMO the APX is almost criminally underappreciated. The A1 version seems to make some thoughtful improvements on an already good design.

Well guys it's time for our newest crisis to get worse. All the impending food shortages, baby formula shortages, farming problems and fertilizer concerns etc... Now the east coast is potentially days away from running out of or rationing diesel fuel. I saw diesel at a station near me for...

I'm currently in SC with family/kids for Easter break. We just went to a local range and had a great time. I rented a Glock 44 (.22lr) to teach kids to shoot a pistol. It was such a good feeling to just have a normal experience with them that was perfectly legal and normal. After they built up...

This is the same guy who went off at the Greensboro city board a few years back as a private citizen over gun rights. He's just crushing it. He's still doing great work. He is just a regular guy speaking truth all over the place and NC loves him.

This is the first I've heard of this alleged incident involving the oconee nuclear plant in SC I expect the more Ukraine/Russia/NATO/china tensions increase we will be hearing of more attempted cyber attacks

Just wanted to start a discussion if all the current world events are inspiring you guys to do anything differently? Has any of these events changed your plans or habits? Perhaps you have "speed up" a timetable of some sort, or bought some new gear specifically because of this. Maybe you've...

Because we need another thread to argue 9mm vs .45 Interesting results

I've been binge watching the crap out of this channel. They are former DEVGRU guys giving us free and useful information and knowledge transfer videos. It's outstanding. I can't believe this channel doesn't have more views. Lots of discussions and information sharing from their perspective...

I got into a discussion with one of my friends on the topic of "what to buy next" since he's one of the few other people in real life I talk to about prepping. Not counting the really obvious things like food, water, medical.... And just focusing on guns, ammo and gear. He got some money for...

Does anyone have an m17? I don't know much about them just trying to learn. I thought I've read that m18's were the better version and all the kinks were worked out with the M18, but what about the m17? I like the idea of a fullsize since that's something I need. School me up on m17...

I'm thinking my next purchase should be something of a battle belt setup similar to something like this I don't currently have anything like this and think it might be useful and come in handy some day. Ultimately looking for a belt to hold a pistol mag or 2, rifle mag or 2, ability to...

It's never too early to dream. Another thread got me thinking that maybe this would be a good topic. Let's start discussing the next nominee for 2024. Who do you want to see or think would do a good job?

Admittedly I don't know too much about this but I'm trying to learn. This is a bit sensationalist but it's still a real threat and apparently is becoming more active...

Well.... The school year is underway. Post up any experiences or interactions you have with your districts school board. I plan to be more engaged and observant this year. I'm getting the feeling many other parents will be as well. My wife is on the PTA so occasionally she has parents...

I found this (albeit very cruel) experiment totally fascinating. I think it's really a practical lesson that there is an instinct subconscious to do all possible to survive if the person/animal thinks there is hope to survive. Once the person/animal loses hope then they're done for.

https://news.yahoo.com/shooter-lakeland-florida-kills-4-164301916.html Oh crap. This checks off about every box the gun grabbers want. A veteran with PTSD and clear mental Illness wearing body armor as a self described survivalist kills a family and kids. prayers for the victims and...

I'm starting to have anxiety that I'm not doing enough and quickly enough. Many are now publicly stating or sharing their growing interest in a preparedness lifestyle This is the newest that I just came across. I find it completely interesting and alarming at the pace on which others are...

Looks like south Africa is in full out WROL right now https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/world/video-breaking-news-complete-societal-collapse-in-south-africa-rioters-being-shot-dead-by-armed-citizens-after-police-pull-back-looters-being-whipped-in-the-streets

https://news.yahoo.com/7-rural-counties-oregon-voted-063548513.html This is a fascinating idea. What if you can convince a heavily blue state it's in everyone's best interest to have a mutual divorce and split. Let the rural red counties join a bordering red state and then Oregon becomes a...

https://www.wivb.com/news/fbi-arrests-alden-man-for-alleged-participation-in-jan-6-capitol-attack/ I have a real problem with this story. The agents thought it prudent to raid his residence with flashbangs. Seriously?! Wtf. Why not just question him or pick up when they were surveilling him...

I feel like this is better suited to the preparedness subforum than off topic or politics. Good video worth a watch. I remember years ago watching John he wasn't really big into prepping but he's definitely changed his outlook. From the little he hints at I think he's turned into a pretty...

It's just starting now. Should be entertaining

I think there was a thread about this but I searched and didn't find it. If there is let me know and mods can merge them. What's in your get home bag? I have 2 get home bags I keep in both my car and wife's car all the time in the trunks so whatever car someone is in they can make sure they...

I'm looking into getting some rechargeable batteries that can be charged via solar. I'm a total noob at this stuff. I'm considering getting a kit something like this; https://www.amazon.com/BigBlue-Charger-Foldable-Waterproof-Compatible/dp/B07ZQXPP17...

This is an interesting idea. I think if you have a small group of people to give you and your guys a chance to go work together in a dynamic environment might really have some practical use to really gain some lessons and experience.

This story is now appearing to break in the news. https://realcenternewss.com/2021/01/24/beijing-biden-beckons-china-to-take-over-the-u-s-power-grid/ Put into perspective that one of the very first things biden has done is to rescind trump's order blocking china from our grid. Biden has let...

https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/active-shooter-s-in-tennessee-walmart Very few details but from the included video it's a pretty significant emergency response I am hoping for the least bad outcome here. I've also been in this exact walmart before...

So everyone remembers the riots and covid mess of 2020. I think this is a good time to stop and think about what we have learned and make future predictions. As crazy as 2020 has been it really hasn't been like full on SHTF without rule of law, do as you please. For the most part things...

Apparently there is supposed to be a pretty big rally of angry trump supporters in washington today. I'm hoping something good happens.
