Jade Helm Early? – NY Guard Training Civilian Imprisonment

Sun, 06/14/2015 - 15:50

Is there a human being in the United States who is not aware that something is going on? At this point, I don't know how you could deny it. And we are all tired of hearing that this is normal military training. The US Marines wouldn't be building 90 million dollar mini towns with soccer fields and church steeples to train on their bases if that were true. I explained last week what my take on the situation is, and it isn't a good prognosis.

Prepping 101: Triaging The Wounded – Mass Casualty Incidents

Sun, 06/14/2015 - 14:34

What would you do if survival arrived on your doorstep? Would you become part of the rescue effort? Or would you just hunker down and wait to see if the next wave is coming to wipe out the people who did rush in to rescue the survivors of…whatever? I recently got a sample of a really cool product from our friends at BriteStrike, and their multi-colored APALS personal light system made me think about the subject of triage. Back in August I wrote an extremely substantive article on “Survival Medicine,” in which I copied the title of a book you absolutely have to get. My approach is meant to be a compliment to the book, because I go through where you can actually buy stuff. Good intentions and knowledge are great, but you need the tools to do the job. And like everything for this column, I try to find useful stuff on the cheap. These APALS lights are not cheap, $50 for 10 of them (retailers discount them some), but even if you can only afford the much less expensive alternatives, this is a good chance to talk about triaging the wounded. It is hard to admit to yourself that someday you may have to label someone as “Expectant,” because that means expected to die, but that is the reality we all face.

Sat, 06/13/2015 - 12:51

Let's assume you have some rimfire rounds on hand--and I know some of you do--what should you do with them? For those of you with an M9, I'd suggest this conversion kit. If you have the ammo, it makes training with the Beretta practical and economical.

Gun Review: Springfield Armory 1911 TRP

Sat, 06/13/2015 - 10:56

Since the centennial of the 1911, the market has been flooded with new twists on the classic Browning design. But not all 1911s are created equal.

The Springfield Armory TRP is one of those guns, and it can hold its own against a lot of custom single actions. Looking for a 1911 to carry everyday? Here it is.
