Best Ways To Go Shopping For A New Gun

I’m shopping for a new gun. Many of you are as well I’m sure. Most of us would have more firearms if budget allowed.

Since I haven’t hit the lottery yet I have to find the best bang for my buck.

In the past, I bought guns in a variety ways. I don’t always just head down the gun shop.

Since I’m getting serious about shopping for a new handgun I thought I would document it.

With the growth of the internet, we have more ways than ever to buy firearms. But some online methods are being crippled by liberal censorship.

The free market always answers censorship though.

I came up with every way I could think to legally buy a gun. You can always make your own homemade guns though.

How To Treat Wounds First Aid Series II | episode 163

This week I’m back with the second installment in our First aid series How to treat wounds.

This episode focuses on wounds both small and big.

The scope covers both band-aids to sutures.

But this show is designed to help you build a First aid kit for times with rule of law not for the SHTF. This is for everyday life and injuries. Where you can go see the doctor if need be.

I have always said that medical training should come before buying an expensicve First aid kit.

This show will teach you how to treat wounds for now. A kit that will be used all the time in you daily life.

Not one that sits in the closet.

You will learn ways to close a wound and why you should consider leaving it open.

And why peroxide is not used on wounds anymore.

How Training with Airsoft Guns Can Help You During Dooms Day

Have you ever wondered how you’d do in a Dooms Day scenario? With various threats over our current way of living (nuclear wars, climate change, biological warfare, and more) it’s difficult to not think about grimmer days.

Are you prepared to bug out and keep safe in an SHTF situation? How about fighting your way towards safety? In every case, a Dooms Day scenario requires you using some sort of weapon to protect your belongings and your bodily integrity.

As an airsoft passionate, I feel a lot more prepared now, when I know how to use weapons and how to react in a battle/fight situation. The years I spent on the airsoft field taught me valuable skills that easily apply to an emergency scenario, and I think it’s time more people know about this.

That’s why the main topic today will be the skills you learn as an airsoft player. Keep in mind, these skills may save your life someday, so pay attention!

The Best First Aid Medicines You Need | episode 162

This week Mike and I talk about The Best First Aid Medicines You Need.

This first part in our First aid series we cover drugs in your first aid kits.

Most of the first aid medicines talked about are for minor injuries. More day to day comfort than the collapse scenario.

Medical care for the SHTF is beyond the scope of a level I and II first aid kit.

Not to mention the technical skills required for advanced medical procedures.

Also as a disclaimer, Mike and I are not medical professionals and this is not medical advice.

Towards the end of the episode, we discuss some stronger medicines to carry. And make a case for getting some fish antibiotics.
