Thu, 05/18/2017 - 12:15

Big Boar Buster: Going Hog Wild with the New Savage MSR 10 Long Range .308

Thu, 05/18/2017 - 10:11

If your goal is to exterminate as many pigs as possible, your best bet is to shoot as many as you can very quickly. That’s a task best suited to an autoloading rifle. I also prefer something more powerful than a .223 Remington, and that’s why I chose Savage’s new MSR 10 Long Range rifle for a recent Texas hog hunt.

Medium Radiation – MyGeiger Pro v3 – Hanford Nuclear Accident – Prepping 101

Sun, 05/14/2017 - 18:39

I decided to return to radiation again this week because of the accident at the Hanford nuclear storage site in Washington state. I know that even with a nuclear war potentially looming over the conflict on the Korean peninsula, most people will absolutely refuse to prepare for a high level radiation event no matter what. So this week we'll take a look at a low level event. This meter, MyGeiger V3, is roughly $150, and it is a worthy investment to be able to measure what I would call "medium level" radiation.

Got No Draco? – Century N-PAP AK Pistol w/Brace – Review & Discussion

Sun, 05/14/2017 - 11:31

There has been a good deal of hoopla of late on the Draco AK pistol. Century can't get enough of them out into the market, mostly because they appeared in some hip hop songs and videos. Needless to say, the rappers involved don't practice appropriate gun safety, but you can't take away from these guns that they just look cool. But are they effective weapons? Right now this Century PAP AK pistol and brace combo are available for under $1,000. Compared to an AR in .300BK, I think it beats it.
