What States' CCW permit do I want to get?
Thinking of taking the UT course at Cabella's next month. Would that be all I need, or would I need to take a live fire course?

RTSP Firearms
I've always had a good experience there, if there is a line, they'll give me my 2 min warning, and I wrap it up. When there's nobody waiting, I never hear my time called, and always stay well over an hour.

World War Z
Loved the book, CG zombies look horrible, "The Battle of Yonkers" will be Michael Bay style, probably won't even play "The Trooper" in it. It's a "wait for cable" movie.

Will a Zombie freeze solid in the winter?
According to WWZ (again, I know, I swing by that books nuts), yes. I'd give all the theory's/examples, but don't want to spoil it for those that want to read it. Also seen in "The Land of the Dead"

Get Home Bag, what's in yours?
Wife & I have near identical GHB's (LA Police Gear Bailout bags): 550 cord (and pro-knot cards showing different knots) Gorilla Tape Zip ties First aid kit Sewing kit Light sticks Bics/waterproof matches/firesteel/tinder Flashlights(Surefire Fury w/ 2 sets of extra batteries) Rite in the Rain pad with pressurized "space pen" Gerber multiple tool CRKT Eat N Tool Bug Spray Sun screen 2 ponchos SOL Survival blanket Travel Wipes Deck of cards with survival stuff (realistically to fight boredom) 3 pouches of Datrex water 1L of water in metal water bottle (change daily) Eyes & in-ear protection Otis Zombie gun cleaning system (great field kit) HK (benchmade) folding knife (wife has a Ka-Bar folder) 2 Cliff bars & small bag of mixed nuts Mini-TP rolls all that, and I still have room for my USP 45 in it's box Just added hand warmers and gloves. We tailor clothing in these for the season. We started out with a BOB, but decided these are more practical (I use the multi-tool, knife, and flashlight almost daily). Our BOB, when coupled with out GHB's has become our INCH bag.

According to World War Z they will. Great book, but imagine the Hollywood treatment will be horrible.

Blackout Post-Mortem - What would you do different?
We only had a few small blackouts that lasted less than a minute, but we were ready for the worst. We usually use candles in candelabras instead of chemlights/flashlights in the house, at least this time of year. The candelabras hold 4 each, so light isn't an issue, plus they give off heat. We have taplights and headlights for the bathrooms, dishes, and other hands-on activities. Other than that, we stocked up on the usual bug in stuff. The majority of my town was evacuated because of what happened during Irene, so we just made sure to have our bug out stuff by the door.

Sig Sauer ACP
I wouldn't think so because the manufactured weight is 45oz, and the light shouldn't be taken into consideration because it's an accessory.

NJGF music thread
We're gonna get along just fine... Misfits-horror punk from NJ (Danzig was their original singer for those not familiar with them) The Clash-the only band that matters Hank 3-son of JR, grandson of SR...does honky tonk, punk rock, & metal Portishead-only their album "Dummy"...great trip-hop Ghost-newer old-style metal band from Sweeden...like Blue Oyster Cult meets Black Sabbath meets Mercyful Fate I went to college on a classical piano scholarship, while playing metal/punk guitar throughout high school, now playing in a Muse-like band. My taste ranges from Slayer to Mozart. Weird.

Back Packing/Camping/Bugout - What to duplicate?
My wife & I have GHB's we carry everyday that, when put together with some packs at home, we have an INCH system. Some duplicates in me & mines GHB's: TP, multi tools, Gorilla Tape, 550 cord, poncho's, Rite in Rain pads, "space" pen, sharpie, eat-n-tools, flashlights, Cliff bars (or other long lasting snacks) etc... As far as a FAK, we started with off-the-shelf Adventure kits, and added what we needed (stuff to make you poop, stuff to stop making you poop, feminine hygiene products, prescription meds, etc...) I just ordered a Biolite stove to keep in our main packs at home with a small mess set, but we have MRE's for on-the-go meals.

Whats in your Bug*Out*Bag (B*B)
I've found some good deals at LA Police Gear. Their house brand stuff has been met with mixed reviews, but it's always done right by me. I, too, like 5.11 gear, although it can get expensive. As for looking like a mall ninja, most of my gear is black (anyone that knows me knows that's pretty much all I wear), and most of my stuff is black. I keep a small camo poncho and blanket in my gear for general use that I can throw over my bag(s) should the need arise. Currently, I'm looking for an inconspicuous longarm to add to the bags (10/22 takedown or AR-7). Nothing flashy, just another tool.

Wojo, very nice! I'm about to re-do out GHB to accommodate fall/winter weather.

Dick's Sporting Goods Gun Deals - 08/12 - 08/18
They always treated me really well when I would/do go there for other sporting goods. Their soccer, sneaker, and hockey staff is pretty knowledgeable, but the guy at my local Dick's firearms Dept is an ass.
