Moped

That's all I have on both my AR's.  Scopes and break and and red dot sights the battery can go down.  Iron sights never fail.

It's on Kindle.

Oops!

This is a bit different, but I read Free Falling (The Irish End Games Series) by Susan Kiernan-Lewis.  Basically a family goes to Ireland for vacation when someone attacks all the major cities in the Western Hemisphere and they are trapped there.

If he sales that Hi-Point for $750, I'm going to invest in one, plus 6 magazines and try it myself!!!  If I don't sell it, I'll just keep it and shoot it!!!

The AK is a better weapon than both of those.

If it's affordable, I'd love to have one!!!

Seems like the actions of a tyranical government to me.

  So would I.

I would think the FAMAS would be a better choice, but then again, after owning two of Mini 14s, my opinion of them is pretty low.

I think you need a small tractor with a mower.  You need to figure out what you want to do.  I suggest laying out a garden.  You can go with raised beds if you don't get a tractor right off.  Gardening is a lot easier than it looks and it's something you can get a lot of satisfaction from in short amount of time!  Just think of the veggies you will be harvesting come the late spring and summer!    Next you need to decide on some stock. Cows and chickens come easily to mind, but something else that comes to mind is goats.  More and more people are getting into raising goats.  Apparently, there is pretty good money in it too!    A good place to start would be your local UT Agriculture Extension Agent. There is one in just about every county in the state and they are a great resource for you and really help you out a lot!  Here is a link.  https://extension.tennessee.edu/Pages/ANR-CED.aspx   Also, I don't know much about feeding parrots, but I suspect they eat millet and such. I bet you can easily raise alot of the stuff that they eat, right there on your farm.

Specifically, Iran. The Saudis are also worried about the Russians becoming the No. 1 oil producing country in the world as well. They've already fell behind us. They do not want to fall behind Russia too. So by cutting oil prices the can kill three birds with one stone. Honestly, OPEC being a scary world dominating entity is no long a big issue. As a group, they really don't like each other and don't play very nice together.

They are replacing coal burning plants with gas turbine plants now.  Also TVA is bringing more nuclear units online as well.  That is not endangering the grid.

Actually, the Government does not fund the upkeep of the electrical grid. The money for that, comes from the rate payers. Our large regional electrical company is constantly working to keep everything running smoothy, now that the ash spill at Kingston is behind them.

I had them both!!! Got the Johnny Seven when I was 4 for my birthday! Had two the M16's when I was 9 or 10. Broke both of them pulling back the "charging handle". Both times they came off track. They were cool as hell when they came out and were a "must have" with us boys that played war in Broadacres! Wish I had them both now. :)

  I would second this.  It will scare the hell out of you, when you realize how devastating it could be!!!

I've seen a few Walking Dead episodes and I have no worries about handling a bunch of zombies.  All you need is a good .22, lots of ammuntion and a 2 ft long piece of rebar with some duct tape wrapped around one end and the other end sharpened to a point.  They are pretty easy to kill.   On the other hand, I can't repair a downed grid easily, so I will chose to worry about the grid more.

I had the safety break on my Scallion (which my daughter found in a gravel parking lot).  I called Kershaw.  They took my name and address and sent me a new safety, a tool to change it and instructions, within a week, free of charge.  Customer service is first rate!!!

I'm with you on the mag capacity problem, especially with the carbines.  I understand it was designed for the Clinton Magazine ban,  Well that's long gone.  Time to upgrade a bit Hi-Point and increase the capacity.  One easy way they could do it is change the grip design in order to use Glock mags.  Now that would be SWEET!!!

In order to prepare, we must know what the threat could be.  Here is another article about how vulnerable our energy grid could be to a cyber attack. In light of the cyber attack on Sony, I think this has to be our country's No. 1 Defense Priority. 3   http://news.yahoo.com/cyberwar-erupts-americas-electric-grid-prime-target-150319790.html

Right now it's almost a two year wait for a new 500kV transformer to be manufactured and arrive on site.  Takes a specialized tractor trailer to get them where they need to be.

Been pocket carrying mine the last two days, along with a Wenger L.L. Bean Edition Swiss Army Knife (a TSA special that I picked up in an antique shop in Eufuala, Alabama back in August).  You seriously do not know you are carrying it!  So far I have opened a few boxes and cut ip my lunch with it.  Works great!!!

Para has been running this promotion for a while now.  Locally in Knoxville, Harvey's Pawn and Loan has been selling them for $399 after rebate for the last couple of months.

I thought the DoD wanted to get away form the 9mm.  Is Beretta going to make this in .45ACP?

Went up to SMKW this evening to get my dad a new Case pocket knife as a Christmas present for my dad.  Got that and then started looking around.  Finally made my way to the CRKT counter.  Checked out the Hissatsu and it's big brother the Otanashi Noh Ken. Really like the style, but they are a bit bigger than I like to carry, especially the Otanashi Noh Ken.  This may be the biggest practical EDC folder I've ever handled!  Absolutely a wicked looking blade!!!  Definiteky looks like it would do the job it was designed to do, which is a tactical folder, designed for SOF work!  $99 was a bit more than I wanted to pay though.    I moved down the counter a bit and there was the Little Folts Minimalist with the Warncliffe blade.  I asked to see it and was really impressed!  This is a super light and handly little blade!  Very sharp too!  I suspect the steel is a little on the soft side, but that's ok.  I like to sharpen knives.   It relaxes me.  :)  It really fits my hand like a glove. Long store short, I walked out with it for a total of $21.94, tax and all. I have it around my neck as I type this.  I'm probably going to replace the cord with some real paracord.  This is a stiff.
