I’m interested in expanding into the realm of AR-10 ownership in 2017. I have zero experience with these and have performed little research as of yet. If any of you out there have experience and first hand knowledge I would be very interested. Prices today are getting more attractive with the DPMS Oracle rifle… Continue reading AR-10 experience?

Panhandle Rancher: Reloading Basics and Equipment Recommendations
Why reload your own ammunition? Two reasons: reloaded ammunition may be much cheaper than factory and reloaded ammunition has the potential to greatly increase the accuracy of your rifle or pistol. I have reloaded rifle, pistol, and shotgun ammunition, and cast pistol bullets and big heavy bullets for the old black powder rifle… Continue reading Panhandle Rancher: Reloading Basics and Equipment Recommendations
Thoughts on guns, ammo, spare parts
Loyal reader Lightning recently commented that it is better to have a few guns with lots of ammo than lots of guns with little ammo. I agree. For many of us and I include myself in this group we are gun nuts at heart. We “collect” guns and often use the excuse that we need… Continue reading Thoughts on guns, ammo, spare parts
Cheaper Than Dirt boycott continues
Remember when Cheaper Than Dirt jacked up prices on ammunition and magazines right after Sandy Hook? I do – and have avoided them like the plague ever since. Of course they had every right to charge whatever they wished and I – and countless thousands – have every right to tell them “Keep it!!”… Continue reading Cheaper Than Dirt boycott continues
Panhandle Ranchers Jeep Weapons Mount
I’m of that generation who drove old pickup trucks to school at age 14 (yes, we had paper driver’s licenses at that age and before, way back then) with rifles and shotguns suspended from a rack behind the seat blocking the rear glass. There were no crew cabs and the pickup trucks had single… Continue reading Panhandle Ranchers Jeep Weapons Mount
Orlando mass shooting
Terrible event that happened in Orlando. If you need the details see this news story here. Several of us have been talking and like other similar events the Liberal Left is coming out aiming directly at guns rather than placing blame where it belongs – radical Islam and the Muslim shooter. There is little doubt… Continue reading Orlando mass shooting
VIDEO: Training day with Dave from Wolf-Fire
Here is a video from last weekend when Prepper Ralph and I took a firearms class from Wolf-Fire Firearms. I cannot emphasize how much I get out of these classes.

What Did You Do To Prep This Week?
The most major accomplishment this week was a “Tactical Response” class I attended with Prepper Ralph(my co-host on The Patriot Podcast). This class was offered by Wolf-Fire Firearms based in Mooresville, NC. The class was held Saturday. Weather was extremely hot (over 90 degrees) and humidity was high. Four people total took the class. Safety… Continue reading What Did You Do To Prep This Week?
The argument FOR uncommon calibers
It is often professed that a weapons stockpile should consist of firearms in common calibers for one very important reason: Resupply. Due to the sheer volume of rounds with calibers such as 9mm, 45ACP, .223, .308, and .22LR if things get bad these calibers will always be readily available. Well, maybe not. Remember the months… Continue reading The argument FOR uncommon calibers

Tactical ear plugs. ……and yes….even Tactical Bacon. Since Obummer… Continue reading The most overused term in firearms….”tactical”
