    Public toilets?

    I refill at 3/4 or half, never less unless I'm on a road trip. Do you pump your own gas, or is that also part of your maid's duties? ;)

    Freeze Dried / MRE survival food reviews

    Of the MREs I've tried, the macaroni and beef / chili mac (2 different brands have different names for it) and the Spaghetti with meat sauce tasted like actual food, the beef stew from both takes a close second. Worst overall for MREs has to go to any breakfast egg or "omelet" dish..... I'd...

    Freeze Dried / MRE survival food reviews

    A thread to discuss your opinions on the Freeze dried / dehydrated pouches & MREs currently available on the market. While canning and dehydrating your own food is much more economical, this thread will focus more on opinions of the store-bought items. Why review the store-bought stuff? Well...

    Your First aid / medical / trauma kits

    Let's hope I never encounter that .... but I did receive training as a child by watching a M*A*S*H* episode ;)

    Your First aid / medical / trauma kits

    I thought about adding a suture kit, but I think that's as far as I should go for now until I get some real training

    Your First aid / medical / trauma kits

    I hear ya, I'll probably add one when I order up an Israeli bandage and a set of good shears; never hurts to be over-prepared .... even if I did stay at a Holiday Inn las night :D

    Your First aid / medical / trauma kits

    No tourniquet currently as I always wear a belt or have some paracord, but as I mentioned in another post, I might go ahead and add one in the event someone has to use the kit on me and just hope they know how to time it correctly so I don't earn the nick-name "nubs"

    Have you thought about a katana as part of your SHTF gear?

    Don't get me wrong, I have several different multi-tasking tools already; A machete (not sure of the brand as I bought it over 20 yrs ago and would have to go look at the stamp), a light weight camping hatchet and a hooked bush knife. Overall, I was just curious if anyone had looked into a...

    Riddle me this...

    But match prices from where? You'll never get a big-box to match the price unless it's another astronomically high priced big-box store (or there will be some caveat that it has to be an in-store & not internet, or it has to be within 1.5 miles or some such nonsense) ;)

    Riddle me this...

    Or you could always opt for a G23 for $699

    Riddle me this...

    It appears I was mistaken, $759 for a G21 gen 4, sorry about that
  13. AirOpsMgr

    Riddle me this...

    Both must be pricing errors, last time I looked at gun prices at Gander, they had Gen 4 G21s marked at $699, so a used G17 would have to be at least $599 ;)

    The growth of NFA in America

    Give it until the next election and I bet we'll be paying for a $200 stamp to purchase a 30rnd mag or reload our own ammo :smash:

    The growth of NFA in America

    But I guess we should look on the bright side, at least it doesn't cost us $12,000 to own a suppressor or SBR

    The growth of NFA in America

    Meh, if it was about the money, I seriously doubt it would have stayed at $200 for the past 81 years; it's all about "control"

    Public toilets?

    Might want to touch base with @dougiemac and see if his supplier could offer something similar; maybe he could strike a deal for some other types of stickers :noidea:

    shut-up and take my money !!!!!!!

    Yeah, working from home makes you lazy; I only pull the 36-48 hr straight shifts when I do the race charters; what can I say, I'm spoiled. By the way, we have World Endurance coming up in Austin in a couple of weeks ... want to come out and pull a 48hr shift with me? I'll give you my VIP pass ;)

    shut-up and take my money !!!!!!!

    Is your maid bringing it to you in a frosty mug, or will you actually have to get up and go to the fridge under your own power?
