Today we had a great discussion with Matthew Facas of Ares Tactical on concealed carry and how the carry space has changed over the last two decades in America.  We talk about carry options, when to actually use a weapon vs. not.  We also discuss training, gear and a ton more. Matthew is a custom holster maker with over a decade of experience. He draws on a vast range of work experiences to design holsters and help people choose the right solution. After getting out of the Marine Corps he spent a decade in the sporting retail market before transitioning … Continue reading →

Today we are going to talk about the shotgun.  My goal is to give the listener a fundamental understanding of exactly how shotguns work.  What all the jargon like shot size, choke, gauge, etc. means and more importantly why it matters.  I also would like to dispel some myths and explain why in my view, the shotgun is the ultimate prepper gun. Join Me Today to Discuss… What exactly is a shotgun and where did it come from What is “shot” and what do those numbers mean What exactly is a “gauge” and what relation does it have to caliber … Continue reading →

Jason Schaller was an FFL for 10 years before concentrating on online firearm content. On his YouTube Channel (The Rogue Banshee) he breaks content down to it’s simplest form allowing for gun owners of all skills maintain their firearms. He joins us today to discuss being a firearm content creator in the “non-firearm friendly” YouTube platform.  We talk about guns in general, the psychological and political cycles that drive gun purchases and how that impacts the infomation space in the firearms industry. We also discuss internet trolls and how they can be used to grow a business in spite of … Continue reading →

I can hear some of you already, “hey Jack you big jerk, just read those bullet point below, three of em are pistol rounds”.  Simmer down there partner you will find examples of rifles firing all of them below.  And as we will discuss today, they are all in a way “different rounds” when fired from a rifle then when fired from your 4 inch wheel gun. Anyway I have been thinking that we have not done a lot of stuff on guns lately.  If you are new to firearms or new to ballistics and components you may want to … Continue reading →

I recently got an email about getting new guns, not to pick on the guy but here it is to show the problem I want to fix today, some specifics redacted for privacy. I have a different take on a gun build question. I would like your help in building the ultimate prepper / hunter / red neck arsenal starting from near zero. Based on your expertise and the objectives I outline, I’d like you to tell me how many guns I should have, what calibers, what accessories, etc to most efficiently accomplish what I’m trying to do.  Your budget … Continue reading →

New Videos – Converting a Sig 239 – Planting Bloody Dock and Baby Bird Updates

The Survival Podcast Posted on May 18, 2017 by Modern SurvivalMay 18, 2017

In the first video I show you how to simply swap out the 40 S&W Barrel in the Sig 239 to 357 Sig.  To get a barrel like this the only source left seems to be directly from Sig Sauer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the next video we are hanging out with the aquatics system and planting “Bloody Dock”  (rumex sanguineus). I also discuss  Endo Mycorrhizae Fungal Inoculation from Sustainable Agricultural Technologies, Inc along with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 Fertilizer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Then in Episode 19 of season three of The Duck Chronicles we start off with the babies.  They all did … Continue reading →

Episode-1860- Fun, Training and Family Time With Airsoft Guns

Today we delve into the misunderstood world of airsoft.  I think airsoft has an unfair and undeserved stigma among many of the “tactically minded” due to the majority of enthusiasts being gamers.  While I have no interest in the game aspects of airsoft I feel even this community is misunderstood and many unfair assumptions are made about them. Today though I will focus on what I call “Airsoft for Practical Training”.  By that I mean real world training that benefits the average civilian that either carries a gun for defense or keeps a gun in their home for the same … Continue reading →

Today I was supposed to have an interview for you but due to a technical problem, that has to be postponed.  As this came up late in the day doing the Thursday show today isn’t really an option either, so you get two just Jack shows this week. I feel this subject is very important and it is why I created the Granddaddy’s gun club recently.  I think too many in this nation who are pro gun rights are in a false sense of security today, seeing only “liberals”, “progressives” and politicians as enemies of the 2nd Amendment. The truth … Continue reading →

With a title like 10 Gun and Ammo Combos you may think of this as a top ten list type of thing.  As in Jack’s top ten guns, it isn’t.  I personally love guns and the science of ballistics.  I love the art of the gun, the design that goes into everything from a tactical AR15, to a lever action design that is more than a century old at this time. No these are guns that in general are simply great guns, have a real role if put to proper use and the caliber or gauge that I feel really … Continue reading →

I grew up with guns.  Got my first BB gun from a grandfather at 7 and was running though the Florida swamps alone with it by 9.  Moved to Pennsylvania at 12 and was turned loose alone with a 22 rifle and a 20 gauge shot gun, only conditions, do nothing stupid and pay for your own ammo with chores. Shot my first deer with a bow that fall, another with a rifle that winter.  I have a 22 I got that Christmas that likely had 100,000 rounds through it before I left for the Army at 17. I learned … Continue reading →
