They make them for AK’s and AR’s

I’ve used ‘em on ARs, bu+t not on AKs.

Does anyone know why the mods would have pulled that story about the Maryland prepper who got raided after he drew attention by saying that he was upset about Obama’s reelection? I don’t want to make the mods upset with me by re-posting it, but it was from the SHTF Plan blog. Not sure if the offense was blog-pimping or if there was something wrong with the idea of posting that sort of information. The story made the DC television news broadcasts, so it did happen.

There’s video on my link as well. if the work well it could be a force mulitpler.

[Carriage Hill]

Holy carp; I was just reading that story at link, and watching the video, 10mins ago.

[easternsky]

I have been looking for it wondered if had been pulled.

[JRandomFreeper]

It was from Infowars. I suspect that was the reason.

Slide-Fire and Bump-Fire are the 2 brands I’m familiar with, and they’re good. I was impressed with the AR-15 & AR-10 units. I already own Class III units on both, so it’s more of a novelty. I heard about early BATFE *problems* with them, but I guess that’s ‘worked-out”, now.

Kartographer, could you add me to your ping list, please?

Thanks.

I imagine that if we ever get to a shooting war between .gov and the people, ATF approval of the weapon won’t matter. There are several semi-auto rifles that can be converted to full auto fairly easily. Changing the action can be done far more easily than 30-round magazines can be fabricated. Consequently there are only a few rifles worth converting, namely those that already have a full-auto cousin.

Ok don't flame me please. I have a product tip but can't post a picture right now (would take about an hour to try and remember how to do it). Since I can't abide peanut butter but love hummus I discovered a product from Wild Garden they have a case of 24 single serving hummus squeeze packs. No refrigeration required and one squeeze pack is enough for one person to enjoy at a sitting with a handful of crackers. Good hummus. The case is 17.50 from a website you'll have to cut and paste

I actually got mine locally through Amway where my hubby works. I think the Wild Garden website has a store locator where you can find it locally. Anyway It's a great pantry item for me.

Since we're talking guns today, I'll include this link: http://www.atigunstocks.com/
They were at my local range last weekend, and they had some real neat stuff on display. More Barbie toys for boys!

Also noticed at Costco that their Velveeta was not in refrigeration like it is in the grocery store. Since I have no freeze dried cheese stored I picked up a twin pack. Package says refrigerate after opening.

Good point.

I bought several cases each of Mil-spec 20 & 25-rnd AR-10 mags, and 30 & 40-rnd mags AR-15 mags, before the mag ban hits. Extremely well-stocked on ammo, too.

This is gonna get ugly.

If you’ve got a drilled well and the grid goes down you need one of these..
