      People Sneaking through your backyard...or back 40

      I see people posting all the time that they have their Get Home Bags in their cars, and that they plan on staying off the road in a SHTF situation while traveling home. However, I don't know how thrilled I would be having people sneaking in behind my house or through my fields in a real SHTF...

      Removing Odor from Plastic Containers...

      I have tried washing, rewashing, scrubbing, rinsing with bleach, then washing again, etc. to remove the odor of the previous contents of my PETE plastic container before reusing. After many failures, Google came in handy. I came across a site that recommended putting a little vinegar on a...

      Bacon used to Cure.......

      I did't know where to post this, so I hope that this is the place. I worry about the bacon obsessed here, and you're in my prayers each night!!! I am kidding of course, I'm sure your all good people. However, I heard a news story today that stated a bacon sandwich is better at curing a...

      How do you keep water from freezing...

      I know that someone is bound to post, "Keep it above 32 degrees!." However, my question is serious. i did a quick search of the water storage posts, and I have read the posts for quite some time in this survival category. From that reading, I know that many store emergency water in many...

      Rifled and Smooth Bore Ammo--What to use?

      I thought that I had all this figured out, then my brother-in-law stopped by and offered his wisdom. Now, I am uncertain about what to use in each type of barrel. I have both a smooth and rifled barrel. Any help clarifying this for me would be greatly appreciated. This is my first...

      Does your child's school really care?

      As a school administrator, I have worked in schools where fire drills and lockdowns were treated as just things that had to be done every month, twice a year, etc. The teachers just went through the motions, office staff only half heartedly tried to account for every student, etc. They...

      Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA)--Yikes!!!

      Found a mention on another website of more international legislation coming down the pike. Three "accusations"---not convictions--of illegally downloading copyrighted content can have you permanently banned from the internet. While this is not law YET, this could be one more way to ACCUSE those...

      Walmart Ammo Purchase by Dealer....

      I was in a Wal-mart in Central Indiana about a couple of weeks ago. I was able to buy a few boxes of ammo, and I was considerate of the guy behind me and inquired if he was after the same thing I was. He told me "No, he was good." Then passing by he loaded up on his limit, then someone, I...

      Dealing with Family Non-(Prep) Believers....

      I have been encouraging family members to be ready. Put up a little extra food, consider how they will protect what is theirs should things get really bad, to watch the news, be informed, and just basically be ready for whatever comes. My parents are beginning to take positive steps, and my...

      Hiding Generator Noise...

      In the event of a real SHTF scenario, it seems that running a generator outside, so you don't kill yourself with carbon monoxide, would telegraph the message that you have what those wandering around hungry and cold would need. How have you planned to dampen or eliminate the sounds coming...

      Your pick for the best AR Lower...

      I am considering purchasing an AR. Most likely, I will start with just the lower and build from there. What would be your top three manufacturer recommendations, and should I go stripped or complete. (I have a go to person to help with assembly if need be.) I only have the money to go at this...

      My Range is now usable.....

      I posted awhile back that I wanted to see pictures of other peoples home ranges. I wanted some idea of what measures other people took to ensure that they were firing in a safe and responsible manner. Thanks for the posts they helped me to get a picture of what I wanted and where to put it. I...

      Anyone have their own backyard range?

      I ask the question to see how many people shoot from their own backyards, and if they do, I would like to see some pictures and descriptions of the downrange area and the improvements made to ensure that they are being responsible and safe while practicing. I live in the country, and I have a...
