So when the next Assault Weapons Ban Happens

And Barry outlaws such machinery (if he can,.... and the big question: if our legislators will roll over and let him...)...

What are you gonna do?

Bury 'em in the backyard? (We will get to that later).....

Turn 'em in like the Australians did?

Really, what are ya gonna do?

A lot of New Yorkers chose to Not Comply with the "Safe Act"...
Now, apparently, (and, illegally, I think) somehow the NY State Police have 4473's....the better to knock your door down with a search warrant some evening....

Unless you have done a great job of hiding 'em, they'll find 'em. And charge you...and fine or incarcerate you.  Best have a plan and have 'em (and the ammo) hidden well.....very well.





I, for one, believe that if the time has come to hide/bury those firearms, then it is past time to use 'em instead....

But I have also taken the time over the years to make several cache areas....some near my home, some elsewhere....in order that I have options and time to plan.

All cache areas are well salted with scrap iron. Steel and aluminum washers, short (and long) bits of rebar, and allthread....some an inch long, some a foot or two....some 16 and 20 inches long. Lots of buried wire that is (oddly enough) about 20" long...the same general length of a barrel and receiver. lots of aluminum cans and small blocks of aluminum.... Lots of empty cases buried or pushed into the ground. sometimes in groups of 20 or 30....(I pick 'em up from the trash at the public ranges)...even a few buried ammo boxes here and there....

How many false positives before the searchers give up? How many pieces of 3/8" or 1/4" steel pipe buried in PVC tubes before they choose other locations? (A posthole digger is your friend here, BTW.... And this is work. Hard work) I'm not saying that ground penetrating radar wouldn't be an aid to them, but I have done can do a lot to make even that form of detection harder.....

So. Can. You.

Laying false trails makes 'em waste valuable manpower...and if they are wasting time on your well-seeded possible stash areas, they aren't looking at your neighbors or compatriots. ....Giving them time to do something. Even giving them time to think how hard they are willing to resist.


Next time you go to the hardware store/Lowes/Home Depot, ask the plumbing department for their mistakes and cutoffs......Might be you can walk out with a bunch of scrap for nothing...Seed several areas. Same-same with your neighbors recyclables. Your workshop scrap? Same-same...

Yes, it is littering. Done in a good cause.

I figure over the years I have left thousands of false triggers for the metal detectors and GPR in many areas. Some also have the cache ready for when I need 'em. Some are ready to receive the stash when the time comes.

Are You Ready?

Or will you knuckle under?  Be like the Australians in 1996? Have your freedom taken from you because of one incident used by socialist politicians who want to control you?

Plus, Note that Kalifornia can now take your weapons "Just Because"....and you don't get any notice they are in court to do so....no chance to face your accuser or defend yourself until AFTER the confiscation has taken place.......   I think if I lived there, I'd have already buried one or two.....if I absolutely HAD to live in that state......

For those of you who remember:

Meadowlark Lemon has passed, at age 83.

Guess

'Cause there are actually pictures this time.....

McDonalds customer shoot another patron who told him his order was ready....

Those darned Amish....

Holy Fcuk!

Drove from NW Indiana to East Lansing Michiganistan today....and back.

Rain when I left.

Turned to freezing rain just past the state line. Then sleet. Rain, sleet. Ice, Freezing rain/Ice....then snow. Then more rain then sleet ....then snow.

Then, for the last 30 miles, nothing. Ran about a 50 MPH average where I often run 75

Loaded up my elderly passenger and his possessions, (in the sleet) and then made for home.

Sleet/slush/snow/rain...in every combination.

'Twasn't the roads, but the friggin' PEOPLE that made the drive so bad. Yes, it was slikkery, but I can deal with that. The morons? Not so much. 30 MPH on the interstate? Dude, get off the road. Fer sure, get out of the LEFT LANE. Don't be too skeered to pass the truck, either pass it or fall back and run behind it....But don't block the lane for the following 2 miles of people that can't get past you...

Grrr. 39 MPH AVERAGE...where 55 or 60 would have been safe much of the time.

But got my passenger to where he needed to be, safely, if a bit late.

So all is good.

But I HATE the first real weather because of the fools that cannot deal with it.

On the post below:

It was pointed out in an email that some might construe my post immediately below as racist.

Maybe it is. Doesn't change the facts.

But you and I both know what the media won't report.

'twasn't Amish yoots running round fighting, "Brawling" and acting badly enough to shut down an entire mall.

It wasn't psychotic Asian Lutherans, either.

Was Dindu Nuffins and their girlfriends. It is every time. Poor black yoots from a certain subset of the black race, Hip hop and welfare.

Face facts, deal with it.

From comments about this incident on another site:

"How many sons does Obama have?"

I'd like to see the video

Of the "Brawl" that this story covers. Oddly, over 1500 "yoots" fighting, yet not a single picture of even one of them........

I'd like to know the demographic of the "youths" and I'd like to know how much was stolen while people were paying attention to the "brawls".


'Twas bad enough to shut down an entire mall, yet....

"No arrests were made"....

"to ensure that the right to keep and bear arms is not unlimited"

Tar and Feathers:

Or , IMO, hanging for treason (after a good trial).

Read HERE.

(Similar to the New York ban, only without all the mistakes)

Here is the person who out his name on it. (I think he needs to be horsewhipped before the tar and feathers....)

I wish

all of you a merry Christmas.

May you spend it with people you love.

Remember the reason we give gifts.

If you aren't Christian, or do not celebrate Christmas, then take the wish of Merry Christmas in the way it was intended.

I'm out, gonna spend Christmas with my family.

Very very true....! I also feel that the current president so someone to be ashamed of.

Read

I further am ashamed that a majority of my fellow countrymen voted for him AGAIN, to a second term.

(Admittedly, the opponents to Barry O were....less than electable, but still....)

More islamic attacks in France, if on a smaller scale

Seems that folks in France have a LOT to fear from Islamic people...and not just recent asylum seekers.

Of course, both of them had "psychological issues".....but I don't think it matters to their victims who were run down by a man shoulting "Aloha Snackbar" "Allah Ackbar"....

21 Dec, 1988

Another in the long list of terrorist incidents by the Religion of Peace.

This one over Lockerbie, Scotland.

Pan-Am Flight 103.  243 passengers. 16 crew. 11 folks on the ground.

I knew a dude who lost his dad on that flight. I met him long afterwards....Worked with him for a time.

He isn't right to this day.

Remember. Say a prayer for the victims. The family members too. They have to live with the aftermath.

How many of those M&Ms are you willing to eat, again?

It is a good thing they are wrong:

Did the last of the Christmas shopping today (Saturday)....

It is a good thing that I (a legal Concealed Carry license holder and owner of many firearms**) am NOT the psychotic, bloodthirsty, maniacal murdering person the anti-gun people say I am......

Or the carnage when mingling with the rude, stupid, apparently psychotic and uncaring Christmas shoppers (and those driving to and from their Christmas errands) would have been incredible and spectacular. ....You'd be reading it on CNN right now.

But I am not, and you aren't.

**(I actually lost all but 3 in a tragic canoe accident just last week)

An example of why your vote matters not at all:

The 2000 + page "Omnibus Spending Bill" funds nearly everything the GOP promised to stop...

and doesn't fund anything they did promise to fix. 

It basically gives Barry O and the DNC what they want.

And, of course, fucks you, the middle class taxpayer/working guy. right hard in the ass, no dinner, no romance, no lube.

The GOP is aiding and abetting the rape of America "fundamental Transformation of America" by Barry and the DNC, with Paul Ryan helping.

He should be hung for his betrayal of his supporters. Beaten for the breaking of the promises he made to his constituents.  Tossed out of office for his lies and betrayal. For starters.

He can't spell worth a damn

But even so, he is correct:

No idea of the carnage

I mean, forget that such action would be precedent setting, and would, really, destroy the US, by destroying the foundation of this country....

READ THIS At the end of the day, it'd be hard to get 10%. And many of those folks who stockpile ammo aren't looking for a war, but they can bring one if that is what it takes. Yeah, we are all fat and out of shape, but there are a LOT of us. And we (some of us at least) can shoot. Well. Some very well. Rifle or pistol. I ain't the best, by any stretch.....but I am pretty good. Lots better than me.

And yes, I AM willing to fight for my freedoms..

The cops may be "Trained Professionals" but they aren't up to this task. And I strongly doubt the National Guard would do much besides refuse to follow those orders.

These fools have dreams, but they have no concept of reality. They judge us from what they see of themselves. They aren't willing to get their hands dirty(but are willing to pay others to do it)......We are willing to get our hands dirty.

I'd hate to see our country destroyed by people like this.

Since things have a higher chance of getting sporty....

I ordered a laser grip for my small pocket pistol....Lipstick on a  pig, you say? Maybe.....But yet:

Sadly, some places I go to, I just can't carry that Para-Ordnance LDA 3" .45 with great big 3 dot tritium sights and a spare magazine. Just doesn't work.

And yes, I do believe that if you are gonna carry a gun, if possible it should be in a caliber that starts with "4" and all that (not that I'd feel undergunned with modern 9mm rounds)....But still....

And, of course, if I knew I was gonna need a gun, I'd not go there at all, or if I had no choice, I'd carry a rifle or a decent shotgun.

Most of the time, I'd prefer to open carry a .357 revolver or a full size 1911 in a decent retention holster... (I actually have a most excellent 1911 drop leg holster made by Michael Hast for me a few years ago, but where I live it makes people nervous...so I don't wear it out much...)

So I carry concealed and as big a gun as my destination and activities allow....Either a short 1911 or a .32 Beretta Tomcat.

Laugh if you want. I haven't found a decent 9 mm that is significantly smaller and more concealable  than that 3"Para that I can shoot well. There are many 9mm pistols that I like, but not small enough to make the difference in concealability.....Not and have a decent enough trigger or grip (Or be safe enough) that I can shoot 'em well enough to want to use other than except in a last chance situation. Same same with the small .380's. Not much gun, poor triggers or worse grip ergonomics.  First shot ok,...maybe. Second shot likely low (or, oddly, for the LCP, high and right)... Then there is the whole 'No safety except on the trigger" trend in modern striker fired handguns.....I'm old school. I like either a really long DA trigger pull or a safety other than the one on the bang switch trigger of a Glock or M&P...

So sometimes I carry a Beretta Tomcat in .32. (wish they made one in .380!) I can hit what I aim at with the thing consistently, it carries well, and the sights are as good as any pocket pistol out there, if not better than most. Not target sights by any means, but significantly better than the sights on my TCP or my LCP or my LC9.

Yes, I know, .32 doesn't begin with "4" and all that. Having said that, modern ammo has come a long way. And the .32 all steel framed gun is a hell of a lot heavier and more controllable than those fantastic plastic (and very very slim) .380's or 9mm's. I can shoot it, and shoot it well. The Gold Dots that I feed it are a hell of a lot more effective than the original ball....

And remember, that .32 ACP in my belt beats your .45 in your car or that .357 in your home in your nightstand.... When I need it. If I ever do.

Having said that, I felt that since ISIS and the other radical Jihadi  Aloha Snackbar types  are increasing their activity worldwide, it might be that I would need all the help I could get with the short sight radius of the Tomcat.....

Do I bought a set of Crimson Trace Lasergrips for that diminutive Beretta...

(Now I gotta get another holster, 'cause the grips don't git well in the Stoner Holster that I currently have)....But the grips work well, and that laser is fairly bright. Indoors, it'll help. Outdoors, at reasonable distances, it will be better than the sights that are on the gun.

I figure we are all going to need every advantage with a pistol, especially a conceal;able one, if we are gonna ever have to go up against Johnny Jihad with and AK or an AR......Not likely to happen, but a lot more likely than when I first began carrying a gun 30 years ago...then it was more likely to be an "Urban Yoot" intent on evening the score for all the discrimination his grandaddy endured......

Gun show today

Saw a LOT of AR's for sale.

And AK's too.

All at approx 2.5 times what they had been for sale 2 weeks ago.

Capitalism at work. I support that concept strongly

I also saw VERY few buyers.

Market forces at work. Offsets the greedy capitalists and all that.

Balance will, ultimately, be found.

Lucky for me, ammo had not been particularly affected, except for 5.56X45. 7.62 x39 and 7.62X51....and, of course, their civilian counterparts.

I bought .32 ACP....Which has never been cheap, but wan't crazy expensive.

“hasn’t blown anything up yet.”

Yep, we, as a country, both need and want immigrants.

But, as Ann Coulter says:

"We want remarkable Americans, not immigrants whose selling point is: “hasn’t blown anything up yet.” What’s the upside of admitting 250,000 poor, culturally backward, non-English-speaking Muslims every year? When are we allowed to talk about what’s good for America?"

Maybe it was in the apartment.....

Since yer looking for that special hard drive in a lake , has it occurred to you that  it might have been in that apartment you chose not to secure?

Or is this just an attempt to make sure that everyone gets a part of the overtime from the investigation?
