Re: Ultimate Survival Rifle Build

I will add the Keltec CP33, with a Farrowtech brace. Very small and accurate, 33 rounds inside the grip or and extended 50 round mag option. You have to be careful loading the quad stack magazines, but if you do that part correctly mine has been very reliable.

Re: Ultimate Survival Rifle Build

I don't think the Ruger integral will fit the Magpul backpacker stock. Thompspon machine Operative Takedown, Gemtech Mist-22TD, Tactical Solutions X-Ring TSS or Innovative Arms R1022 would be good options.

Re: Rio Salado Swap Meet 1 April 2023

Small but good. All Joe schmoes looking to unload stuff they don't need anymore. Unlike other shows which are mostly a collection of gun stuff resellers businesses. It felt much more like a gun swap meet.

Re: .22 Shorts and Pistol Suppressor

Didn't know shorts would feed from the magazine of a P22? I have shot shorts through a suppressed rifle without issue.

Re: Seeking Advice: Emergency Insulin Refrigeration Solutions for Power Outages in High Heat

Idling a car for a long time would need similar precautions to running gas generator. It should be as far as reasonably possible from an enclosed living space. Consider Carbon Monixide alarms to be extra safe. As for how to keep the car from being swiped that is going to depend on your situation, If...

Re: Seeking Advice: Emergency Insulin Refrigeration Solutions for Power Outages in High Heat

Most people don't consider it, but your car is a excellent backup generator. It can produce 500-800W at idle and does not consume much fuel at idle. A smaller 4 cylinder car is on the order or 1/4-1/2 gallon consumption per hour. If you are good about never letting your tank run low you could have s...

Re: Videos of engagements

Glad I wasn't eating Sonoran Dogs at Moreno's that day. Where did he get a FA MP5, guessing that one came north over the boarder.

Re: Easy friction fire

O and another fun fact, real ping pong balls are made from nitrocellulose, a close cousin of modern smokeless gun powder. The are very flammable and leave nearly no ash behind. Unfortunately some modern ping pong balls are moving towards being made from a plastic and unfortunately are not as fun.

Re: Easy friction fire

Potassium Permanganate reacts with Glycerin or Glycol and starts on fire. Antifreeze has a very high Glycol concentration. The forest service actually buys ping pong balls filled with Potassium Permanganate and then they have a launcher that injects antifreeze before launching them usually from heli...
