New American Truth

When we talk about survival preparation and equipment, where living or dying can hinge on what we do or don’t have, can we afford to take a less cautious approach? I think not.

With 23 different variations of Glock available you’d think they make something for everyone. I have to confess that, at one time or another, I’ve owned six of their handguns in 9mm, .40S&W and .45ACP. Certainly their handguns are reliable, simple and “convenient:” easy to handle, easy to maintain. Still, I find myself wishing Glock would make two more variations – and I readily admit that it’s all about me (as I write this) although I’m sure some folks out there would also take an interest in the fictional weapons I’m going to describe.

If you could only take one long gun and one handgun with you out in a survival situation, what would those guns be? The responses were interesting.

Out “in the sticks” a rifle is all but mandatory not only to provide food through hunting, but also to prevent varmints (the pest variety) from becoming a nuisance or threat. What am I talking about?

Each “expert” had their own feelings and opinions, all based on their own knowledge and background. The one thing we all truly agreed on by the end of the conversation was this: ALL survival gear is personal.

In fact, the FBI reported that guns were a BIG gift during this past Christmas season with over 1.5 million background checks done as buyer’s picked up new weapons.  SOME of those weapons are “bargain basement” surplus guns such as the topic of this review:  The Mosin Nagant bolt-action rifle.

I expressed my belief that if the government ever banned the private ownership of firearms we’d see the beginning of the 2nd Civil War. He actually laughed at me and reassured me that any citizen dumb enough to take on the government would be easily overcome.

It’s time to re-harden America. It’s past time to bring back the reality that no country will want to mess with us if the average every day citizen goes about his daily business armed, ready and willing to fight against any and all threats from foreign or domestic sources.

A Nuanced Approach That Liberals (and RINOs) Will Have a Hard Time Disputing

I AM talking about what (in my opinion) every AMERICAN should have stored safely in their home. Why?
