As I was going over my final checklist for both my “Shelter-in-Place” and “Bug-Out” Plans, I came across something I have been meaning to work on for some time but never got around to it: improving my perimeter security. Now being I am in a very rural area, my perimeter security is a bit unorthodox…

Making the Tactical Flashlight Practical Again
It is amazing to me the speed in which technology moves. And whats more amazing is it is not just the technology that we see and hear about everyday like computers and cell phones, but the technology advancements not readily apparent to most everyday “sheeple” types, like in flashlights. Being kind of a tech geek…

The “Written in Blood” Rule Proves Correct Once Again…..

As a young whippersnapper, I did not quite understand what that meant, until I saw, first hand a man get electrocuted due…
What the CO can Learn from the Eric Frien Manhunt
I started watching the story about Eric Frein with only casual interest at first, because I thought, this being a civilian cop killer, they would find him in no time and it would most likely end in a one-sided shootout with Frein in a bodybag and SWAT cops giving high fives. It has been over…
