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 →

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 need a bit of a fun change up today after the recent server issues (which are now solved for a while) so I though I would break out with some lesser known rifle calibers.  In out current world shooting seems to revolve around the 223, 308, 30-06, 30-30 and a host of the magnums.  Sure there are quite a few 270s, 7mm-08s and 243’s out there too but what about the other roughly 500 cartridges, is there any place left for the oddball or the old classic that is no longer innovative? Join me today as we discuss… Why … Continue reading →

Today we have some really interesting listener questions and feedback.  We will discuss subjects like casting lead bullets, The Appleseed Project, Permaculture, harvesting roadkill and Monsanto’s role in the global warming scam. I will also dedicate today’s show to James Kavanaugh who passed away on December 29th after a long illness.  James Kavanaugh was an amazing writer and among my favorite books by him are “God Lives“, “A Modern Priest Looks at His Outdated Church” and “There Are Men Too Gentle to Live Among Wolves“.  Many of you many have never head of James Kavanaugh but when I was 21 … Continue reading →

I am broadcasting from home today (very early by the way) because I have to go out on a location to do some film work and won’t have the option to upload the show from my office.  I didn’t want to leave you with out a Friday show so I knocked one out at the house before I left. Today’s show is all about ways you can start to become more independent.  My challenge to you is to pick one or a few of them to do right away. Tune in today as I discuss… Buying an ounce of silver … Continue reading →

We talk quite a bit about tactical stuff around here but hunting is a very different world especially when it comes to the shotgun.  Join me today as I give you a rapid fire overview of the shotguns adaptability and utility as a sporting arm and something that has been putting meat on tables for a very long time. Today I also name Kenny MacAskill as “assclown of the day” for recommending the the release of a terrorist who killed 270 people by blowing up a Pan Am aircraft over Scotland in 1988.  Hero of the day is granted to … Continue reading →

I don’t do a lot of firearms centric podcasts simply because there are a lot of great podcasts about guns and their use, training and customization.  Yet it is a major component to modern survival philosophy so today I attempt to bring some practicality to that subject. Today in the intro segment we discuss the 33 million dollar fine to Bank of America and why it pushishes their shareholders (whom it is supposed to protect) and doesn’t punish the company at all.  We also discuss a small group of senate democrats that recently stood up for the second amendment.
