So I saw this meme today and it reminded me of some of the stuff I talked about before. I think too many people focus on the gear and not the larger picture. Or just realize that their situation will probably be pretty miserable in reality. While it’s important to have good gear and ifContinue reading “Prep Rant: Let’s Argue”

It Came From The Footlocker
I thought I would talk about a few odds and ends from my personal hoard and give a few words for each item. First up we have here a Marbles vintage gun cleaning kit in its metal box. One of the higher end kits from its day, the rod was well made with a woodenContinue reading “It Came From The Footlocker”
The Suppressed M16 in Vietnam and After
“With the emergence of the M16 as the principal infantry arm of the US ground combat forces in South Vietnam, the major thrust of suppressor development was centered on the 5.56mm rifle. The USAMTU had been actively involved with suppressor testing during the course of Army revaluations. So far as the AMTU was concerned, ifContinue reading “The Suppressed M16 in Vietnam and After”
Colt Realtree Anaconda Review
In 1996, Colt came out with what is now a very rare variant of the most excellent Anaconda revolver. The Anaconda being a larger framed ( for 44mag) version of the Python .357 magnum revolver.

Precision Shooting Magazine
PS magazine has been dead and gone since 2012 and its sister publication The Accurate Rifle even longer. It was a real shame these magazines and the info they provided are now long gone.

NAPOLEON Trailer
One of the other boys at Last Movie Outpost has the scoop on the new Napoleon flick from Ridley Scott. In my opinion, Ridly has lost whatever it was that made him a great director in past decades but I am hopeful about this one, Ridley Scott knows historical epics, with big scenes and ragingContinue reading “NAPOLEON Trailer”
Moore Militaria ” John Wayne Dense” Tiger Stripe Review.
A couple weeks ago my set of the “JWD” tigers from Moore’s came in. This is an exact repro of the pattern used in the Vietnam war. Probably the most popular tiger pattern variant and certainly the most famous after being word by John Wayne in The Green Berets. The movie is how this versionContinue reading “Moore Militaria ” John Wayne Dense” Tiger Stripe Review.”
Book Review//Becoming a Barbarian by Jack Donovan
by Sunshine_Shooter at progunmillennial In-Depth Review Why Did I Buy This Book? Becoming a Barbarian is the sequel to The Way of Men, which I enjoyed immensely. The Way of Men is a good, yet short read about the psychological nature of men. Becoming a Barbarian was probably just more of the same and I’mContinue reading “Book Review//Becoming a Barbarian by Jack Donovan”
