20 Simple Steps to Basic Preparedness from Jack at The Survival Podcast
Just listening to this now while I bang out some emails for work. A couple days ago, Jack Spirko at The Survival Podcast published a podcast about the “20 Simple Steps to Basic Preparedness.” So far pretty good, and I am learning a few things. Here is the content of the Podcast: Step one – […]
4 x 32 Scope For My Henry AR-7
The Henry AR-7 comes with a small rail on top of the receiver for a scope. As I am not thrilled with the rear peep site, I have had this on my list to purchase for about a month or two. This past weekend, I spent a few dollars on a 4 x 32 […]
Another Post on EMP Attack
I will probably write about EMP attacks more than other types of attacks. The reason is that I think that this is one of the most viable attacks from a foreign power that we could see in the future. I also think that it is one of the most dangerous attacks that we could see […]

What You (and I) Need To Know About Knives
There are many types of knives out there. I have many. Probably too many knives, but each one has a purpose, so when I go camping or hiking I choose the right one to go with. I usually carry one or two knives pretty consistently. In my travel EDC I carry a Mora. If I have […]
