With tomorrow being the 22, are you going to be loading up the BOB and the SHTF weapon in to the Bug out Rig.
Are you going to be traveling out and about a bit more well armed? Or just another day? |
|
Considering they're about 11 hours ahead of us, shouldn't it be later today?
|
|
By 4pm central time today Aug 21 it will be 12am Aug 22 there!! So if anything is more then likely going to happen its going to around the time when your asleep tonight or as your going home from work today! |
|
|
Holy crap!! My poor planning and lack of taking in account of time zones has left me way out gunned!! Looks like I run home at lunch and get my shit! |
|
|
Why are you not prepaired now? |
||
|
I always travel appropriately armed so I guess it's just another day.
Suppressed midlength in the trunk and .45 on the hip |
|
Aren't you a gunsmith? Surrounded by guns at work? How many more do you need to bring in? |
||
|
Who had that little animated stick figure that was running around going "OMG OMG OMG"? We need it now
|
|
You can never have enough! ETA: damn people want to talk to me while im typing... |
|||
|
Well enough. Carry on. |
||||
|
Hell yes, I'll bring my Ruger Mini 14 with aftermarket mags, WOLF ammo, and TAPCO accessories to work.
|
|
I was thinking the same thing...... BTW....I always carry, but yes I will make sure my other stuff is handier than usual. |
|||
|
Depends on if I have to take a dump in the morning. Most of the time I do but hey, You never know, It is the 22nd and heard strage things might happen.
|
|
I'm home and armed to the teeth, if that counts. Will be tomorrow too, my car is being fixed.
|
|
I knew there was a reason I left my shooting bag in my truck.
1 Glock 17 150 Rounds 9mm 1- AR-15 200 Rounds 5.56 1-870 30 Rounds of Slugs 1 Pistol Belt 1 Chest Rig I think I can make the 5 miles to my house with what I have. |
|
From the sound of it nothing more than the usual arfcom panic.... |
|
|
Same thing I have every day. Glock 19 with loaded 15 rounder and backup 17 rounder.
Hard to carry much more on a motorcycle. |
|
Iran has hinted that they might attack/nuke Israel on 8/22. |
|
|
August 22nd is a date with religious significance in Islam, and Iran has been making noises lately. Also, Iran in in the middle of some war games, a classic cover for military action. If you want to be paranoid, Iran has been visiting a bunch of bad actors lately, including Cuba, Syria, North Korea, and Venezuala, as if they're trying to coordinate something. |

It would have been nice if you wrote heavier instead of heaver.

With the site down for a while and a bit of heavy thought. I have figured out how to carry 14! 30 rnd ar mags on my body buy using duct tape! I have been jumping up and down for over 30 min now and they have not budged once! Still concealed on my body.. I'm am thinking though that it might hurt a bit putting them to use.. Do I need to unload the mags before I shower? Or just hit them with the hair dryer after they get wet?
|
|
If something does happen do you really think that there's going to be an enemy to shoot at?

Well, I know that this is a silly tongue in cheek thread, but you have asked a legitimate question. Considering how certain members of our society react when a favorite sports team wins or loses a championship game, it is not beyond reason to expect those same members to react in a similar fashion after a major news event takes place. If such an event takes place, would you rather be prepared or not? |
|
|
I'm off this week so it doesn't matter to me As long as the crazies stay away from my house they'll be ok. |
||
|
|
|
The thing about crazies...Well, they are crazy. You can't predict what the ROP has in store for you next. I'd rather take minor precautions, personally, but then again, I am generally prepared to expect the unexpected. |
|||
|
nothing you can carry can protect one from middle beastern blather mouth (other than common sense)... |
|
|
|
|
Yup looks like a normal day at the shop! |
|
|
hair dryer |

Eh...threw the AR in the truck with some mags. Not too worried.....more worried about the crzy doomsdayers than any terrorists.
|
|
That's MR. Roper to you! ByteTheBullet (-: |
|
|
+1 if there way really something going to happen we wouldn't know it anyways, the fact they you're all talking about it shows that tommorrow is probably not the end of the world. i do think its prudent to fill up your gas tank etc, because youre going to use it anyway it cant hurt. iran couldn't reach us with a nuke with their technology anyway even if it did have nukes |
