Price of gas
it was last time gas was this high. people were punching holes in gas tanks. we had one of our CAP vans hit, but thankfully they only siphoned....so we just lost about 40 gallons. golly.....who was prezident when this happened last time? it escapes me........

Price of gas
they're suggesting locking gas caps.....dumb idea. if they want the gas outta your car, they're gonna siphon it or punch a hole in your tank. better to lose a couple hundred in gas than a nearly 1k fuel tank.......

Prep for Russia Ukraine backlash

which is why i've emptied my checking account down to only just barely have bills covered. here's a fun thought about mass transit going down. more people'll be on the roads. and just think......how many of the traffic lights are controlled through the interweb too?

sadly most police don't know the laws surrounding this either. we can't blame them though, 'cause that's the same as expecting me to know everything about every car that comes in. officer tried to take my critical defense the night of my burglary. when i told him i thought the statute said i could possess, he checked, and came back in and left them with me.

m1 garand ammo pouch
probably the wrong place(i seem to do that often). looking for ww2 style garand ammo pouches. i'm not looking for the entire belt, but rather pouches that i can put on a ww2 style web belt....which i'm also looking for. i have a post-ww2 web belt with plastic clip, but i'm looking for old style with the metal fastner. don't want or need 10 ammo pouches on the belt.......... thanks!

Portland Shooter Quickly Stopped by Gun Owner Carrying Concealed at the Scene
they can't print that at the top of the article. they know most people won't make it past the first couple of paragraphs......and they can't destroy their desired narrative.

youtube channels
yea. there's a few i like to watch....but the only one that i think i'd deem worthy of support(that's not meant to be a dick towards any of the ones i watch) is frogman tactical. i kinda like the way the guy talks and explains stuff.

youtube channels
i know there was a thread about different training and prepper channels somewhere. can't find it right now. but....stupid question......do any of you guys support any of the channels you like?

Who has an at-home shooting trainer product they'd highly recommend? (electronic/laser/other)
friend of mine did that with "expired" soft body armor as the backstop. customer tole me he tried it with a piece of wood as backstop. was shocked when the bullet penetrated then ricocheted all over the place....

glock 19 with dot
i mine isn't co-witnessed. but i have gone back to the irons occasionally. i wanna shoot my ruger that i just got....but with limited time at the range for now, i'm spending it all shooting this to learn the dot. something else i noticed.........when i'm on the dot, i'm more focused on the target than i am when i'm on the irons....when on the irons, i'm focused on the front sight, with the target being there but blurry.....

glock 19 with dot
ok.......i wasn't really sure where i should put this, but i figure @Mrs. Peel will put it where it belongs? please? if you guys remember me looking for the slide for a dot...this one..... sooo.....i bought the brownells slide that H.E. had suggested, a brownells parts kit to assemble it, and the holosun 407c with green dot. my eye seems to pick up on green a little better than red. bought a pretty cool barrel and comp from h.e., and put it all together. installed ameriglow sights for now, and thanks to mrstu for the front sight installation tool! just came back from the range. this is the third week out with this pistol. she shoots great. i am however finding it a little harder than i'd expected to get used to it. first week out, while trying to zero it(i zero'd at 10yds), first shot was on the dot, secoond and third, i went back to the irons...didn't realize i did that till that third shot. cleard the gun, put it down for a moment, then got back to it. took me about 15 rounds(was using 3 round groupings, adjusting, repeat/rinse) to get it to where i was happy. my grouping with this is about the same as with the 92fs on irons, but i can do it slightly faster for now. i had found myself fishing around for the dot the first week, and half of the time last week. by the end of the night, i was picking the dot up much faster. tonight, no problems picking up the dot. found(with help from a couple of youtube videos that it was much easier to pick the dot up if i positioned the gun so that the dot came down from the 12. tonights drill was to use a silouhette target with bullseyes at center mass, head, and at each corner of the paper. i'd load up mags, then shoot chest/head/corner to corner, and repeat in random order. started slow, got faster. did the same with the 92 on irons. was just as accurate on the irons, but much slower. overall, i'm liking it. soonz it warms up some, i'll get to an outdoor range in the bright sun to see how it is.
