I would wonder why they want you in the basement? Concern about gunfire?

That would be the first assumption. I've heard of the suggestion from police a few times in my life.

Ah, hadn't even thought about waste, a couple more 5 gallon buckets for sure. We use sawdust up at the hunt camp, so my wife's used to the process. Excellent call. Maybe 3 or 4 shower curtains to make a "room" or two which will be warmer than the full footprint.

As I recently posted in WWYD, the family and I recently moved to a small older house. Since finishing college, I've rented in low-rise or high-rise concrete buildings. This past week I was scrolling through social media and found a local article where police had advised a neighbourhood to shelter in...

Back in March or April 2020 I set out make a killer manhattan. I've never been well versed in the world of bourbons, so I started with a google search and settled on woodford reserve. I experimented with the ingredients I had on hand, which weren't all traditional, but I ended up with a killer manha...

My wife is anti glue trap, pro snap trap, I considered carrying an airsoft pistol around the house, since they're only field mice, but they've yet to present themselves in waking hours, so I haven't tried that yet.

Poison bait in hidden places works wonders. Tom cat is the brand I use. OP mentioned dogs, so poison bait probably isn't a great idea. No matter how well you hide it, dogs and cats are still at risk of of catching a rodent trying to flee from its own burning, melting guts. When said poisoned rodent...

Ah, metal garbage can. Thanks guys. Definitely the easiest solution. Sensitive electronics perhaps? How so? Alternative idea, secure hooks and or floating shelves. Anyone know if mice could scale drywall? Something I heard about EMP. Oh okay. Suppose it would serve double duty, yes. Each of our bag...

Mice can scale pretty much anything if it means getting free food. We had that problem years ago before I started at the railroad. We moved into a shitty little apartment in Kansas City that was apparently a magnet for mice. We found that any holes patched with metal mesh was great for stopping mic...

Been a busy few months. Mrs, baby and me moved out of the apartment in the big bad city to a small rental house in a slightly better city nearby. Shortly after we started to move stuff in, we discovered the house had a mouse issue when we lost a small amount of shelf stable groceries. We threw a bit...

Just ordered a second Tasmanian Tiger SW Tac25 pack for my wife. This will be (part of) her Christmas present. Life is crazy busy right now by all standards, let alone in the middle of a pandemic. I'll be happy to have our family bug out bags squared away better than they have been.

As a new dad, time. Everything takes much longer with a baby. Even content infants need to be checked on regularly in car seats and any sleep space that isn't a crib or bassinet.

Figured this is topical;

And also, if you've paid into a survival compound, you should expect notice that they'll be opening their doors by November 3rd. If you're a member of one of those places, you probably have more money than all of us schmucks on ZS combined. https://www.theblaze.com/news/survival-camps-to-activate-op...

Even Canadians are being told to "brace for disruptions"

I think it was in ZS (maybe the last FA chat) we talked about a protective cover for the interlocking bits of a takedown rifle. I finally got a bit of time to make up a crude set for my '92 take down. Aesthetic will be improved over time, but they function for now. https://i.imgur.com/zFbtUfd.jpg ht...

I want to give this Q a bump. Obviously photobucket is done. Imgur doesn't allow size adjustments on mobile ... What are others using on ZS? Other apps I'm on automatically resize photos when linked from another website, makes image hosting a non issue, can the techies behind the 1s and 0s do that f...

A few years ago, I went to the home of a gentleman from my gun club to borrow something. Upon arrival, he lead me to the basement, into the unfinished laundry room. Shifts a box a few inches to the right, reaches up above the exposed drywall panel and slides a bar lock out of the joist, the whole 4x...

My wife's birthday is coming up this week, so in celebration we decided to go for a family road trip. Definitely our longest drive since our daughter was born seven weeks ago, just a day trip through some cottage country where the forests are thick and lakes are plentiful where we can take in some t...

So I bit the bullet and ordered the bag of choice from a german backpacking site this morning, but only one. If I like it, I will order a second later.

I BO'd here recently. What I found was: I don't have a "...i just need to get a hotel room for a few days..." bag. I ended up with core needs, & a lot of things I didn't need. 1/50th U$D. That's the purpose of the "Urban BOB" in my signature, the 20L bag I'm referring to. It's a change of clothes, ...

I'm thinking about changing my bug out bag. The bag I have is great in size* at 20L (tactical tailor removable operator pack). The bag was built by me for me to evac my apartment building with nothing on, preparing for worst case scenario, leaving in the middle of the night, stark naked. My wife has...

Thanks guys. I'll wade through the US dealers list. Neither botach or walmart have the SW TAC 25 listed. Maybe it's too new. Seems a perfect balance for the size of bug out bag and grey man without compromising on tactical features I love in other bags.
