The best way I've found to prepare dandelions is as follows: 1) Pull several plants up (the root and all...just wrap your hands around all/most of the leaves, and remove the wholeplant from the ground) 2) Cut the root/stem section off and discard (although they are edible, but, I haven't ate them ye...

Tagged for awesomeness! I did a similiar set-up in my man cave for SHTF, but also planned on hooking up a trailer the same way. I went with 12v deep cycle. Anybody here that can validate the 6v vs 12v debate??? I'm mean, the obvious advantage with the 6v is easier replacement, but...??? Anyways, wil...

@angelofwar Good job on the shelving. I did a similar type setup with the shelves in my office, starting off the back wall like that. But, I used eight foot 2x4's for the sides, as well as a center post support. The shelves I made are 8' wide, so that middle post was definitely needed. I'm eyeing a...

Got my ultimate BO rifle... what rifle is that? This: http://www.chiappafirearms.com/products/136 Mine is the black model with the skeleton stock. I should have said "survival rifle"...Ha! I'll still have my AR, Boom-stick, and pistols, but this is something I can easily through in a back-pack, and...

A few more details...looks like a lot of the more "advanced" techniques didn't work...just a simple ol' waving of the hands... http://www.wistv.com/story/28710191/sailor-rescued-after-66-days-missing-at-sea?clienttype=generic http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/angelofwar7/SC%20Rescue%206%206da...

Do not want. I dont really have much beef with the maker or the cost. My beef is its a rather one-dimensional approach to survival, in that its all "weapons". Its only the sexy part of survival, nothing of the dol-drums. Id be more impressed if it came with a ferro rod, para cord, lengths of snare ...

ZS:SC 045 Should be proud...maybe we need to invite this guy to a MBO!

Nice to see a cookie-cutter survival scenario play out with success!

Which one did you get?

If you're willing to sacrifice on the AA/AAA Req., nothing beats the simplicity of the Surefire 6P. You can get bodies pretty cheap, and throw a Malkoff Drop-in in there, and your set. Even better would be the Surefire LX2...my go to EDC forever. Nice two way pocket clip. One setting really, but def...

Good stuff woods! Plenty of chaga around my parts, but I prefer tinder fungus. Although harder to find, it seems to work better than chaga. What's yer preferred method of getting the chaga to catch a spark? Bust it up into bits? My last 30-40 fires have been started with a spark or the sun...no matc...

While I've heard of several over the years in the media, specifics skip...but, I will share a few of mine...most of them seem good timing... Ice Storm two years ago. I had just bought my generator, finally, a few months prior. Ice covered everything, and we lost power for 4 days (a lot for SC, consi...

My Chiappi Little Badger .22LR survival rifle...Done looking!

I go with the "multiple kit" approach. I have a "trauma center" at the house, with plenty of gauze, ace's, tape, cold packs, etc., for a larger centralized disaster (i.e. a tornado rips throguh the hood). I keep 2 decent kits in the vehicle, one for vehicle accidents, and one for bug-out purposes. A...

In the past, my answer would have automatically been a shotty...but, as I've matured in "all things gun", I have learned that the maneuverability a pistol allows makes it the go to option for home defense in an intruder situation. Don't get me wrong...my 870 Marine Magnum will always be there just i...

Welcome from the Swamp Fox Zombie Squad of South Cack-a-lackey! Definitely find a local chapter and get on some camping/hiking trips. Tons to learn, and a friendly environment (as long as you stay out of the firearms section...Ha!)

Got pretty lucky in the Knife Realm... http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/angelofwar7/IPhone%20Mar%2015%20380.jpg Smith & Wesson Tacitcal ($3), Kershaw Ken Onion ($2), SPyderco Delica ($2), Shefield Tactical, and the two Bucks, $15, and the coveted Camillus Paratrooper ($10). Not bad for a nic...

Water is a real issue...and, like the decline of oil supplies in ~2050, seems to be an issue we'll just "pretend doesn't exist". While I have no current catchment system/recycle system, I did build a simple one using some tin roofing and PVC to channel the water to a collection and then purification...

If you have a multimeter, you can use it. Just read the voltage off the side of the battery, put the 'meter in DC voltage mode, and see if the output is close to the rated output. NiMH are rated 1.2V, I think Alkalines are 1.5V. I like the multimeter option because you can use it for things other t...

I think the elephant (gun) in the room is this: Are we bugging out on foot or vehicle? On foot, I'm not bugging out with my "battle rifle" unless it's complete nut's outside (i.e. LA Riots,, etc.). I'll have two pistols and the .22 folded up in my bag. Vehicle....definitely bringing the battle rifle...

Everything you said is logical...and as others have stated, running around with an AR in a most likely BO situation will only land you in trouble. Where they do excel in purpose is in sentry/gaurd duty, such as a large scale BO/SHTF event, where you may actually have to pull "Guard Duty". I'd rather...

These scenarios of these cities running out of water is scary, but interesting at the same time. I try to be a good steward of the earth, and work more and more towards it every day. I try not to waste water...ever, but having a family and having continuous water supplies, it's hard to get them on t...

My thoguhts... 1) What bothers me, as others have hinted at, is that the FBI/ATF could really provide no credible evidence/statistics that this round being used was an issue...there was no "increase in cop deaths by M855". 2) On the flip side, if a lack of M855 ruins your TEOTWAWKI plans, those plan...
