End of the World

Back in the day, when I was working the 8p to 4a shift, riding around in a Crown Vic looking for miscreants (people with a criminal intent), trolls (anyone looking to take advantage of any situation) and zombies (folks strung out on crack, meth or who had been huffing gold paint), there was a fellow we called “Bush” who was a perpetual ride along with several of us.

Bush was what us here in the hills call a “Big ole-boy” and while he never got out of the patrol car, there was an occasion or two when he got on the radio to let dispatch know his chauffeur might need some assistance.

Bush up and moved to Florida where he made good selling time-shares. But he got bored with that and decided to sell guns instead. You can find him at a Florida gun show every week with tables full of ammo, guns and related paraphernalia. He called me the other day to let me know a buddy of his is running an End of the World special; one box with all the goodies you need to start your post apocalyptic recovery.

Check out this Doomsday box of goodies from Tactical Weapons Solutions Company.If you have two-grand in your pocket and either believe in zombies, that the Chinese are coming or that your neighbor is part of a terror cell just waiting to get the call, this kit, a good handgun and a bottle of Jameson should be all you need.

An Interesting Blog

“Out of every hundred men, ten shouldn’t be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle.  Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.”

Found this quote and other interesting stuff at: Art of the Rifle

New Book in the Works

I am in the process of putting a new book together. The project will cover a hodge-podge of topics centered on guns. It will offer a no nonsense, truthful and in some cases behind the scenes look at things like junk guns, cartridge comparisons, ballistic myths, concealed carry, firearms training, gun magazines, gun blogs and even gunwriters. I can’t reveal the format and all the details right now (We have not even settled on a title.) but I would like some input.

What I would like to know is if there are any topics you would like to have addressed? Are there things you want to know about that you feel get glossed over by gun magazines? Are there things you think are kept secret from consumers? Things like gun and ammo pricing, custom firearms and the ATF.

Give me your ideas and your questions and I’ll start the investigation to find the truths, lies and misconceptions.
