With all the shit goin on in NO, now with gun confiscation and all, that just isnt going to happen to me. I havea 9mm pistol Taurus PT-99. Its accurate and i havent had problems with it. I need more mags though, any ideas to where i should get some? Im in Orlando if anybody knows of some here localy. I have a kit built AK, i havnt test fired it, but i finished it. Does anyone sell mags and ammo for an AK in Orlando? Anyone else putting together a bug-out setup? I should have had one already, but i 18 and can barely afford food.

check out that shoot straight place up there, if not next time you are home  I know that we have mags for that at Guns & Knives...better go test that AK boy and make sure it works, all 3 I make function fine, just need to finish the stock on one and the rec on the other 2

Yeah its  pyro5k19. I had no idea about this, a year or so ago i posted about some survival stuff. Now that i think of it, it was right after 9/11. I was interested in gettin some survival stuff together. I have alot of outdoor stuff from my days in CAP. Damn, this has gotten me excited.

Thanks Protus, I just wish I knew what would be happening with me in Feb. I am in the Coast Guard now and have finally squared away everything for my training. If I am free I would love to go and learn some new things.  I will post some questions in the survival to find out more.


1BMF you mention that you have a Taurus. While that is good I dont think you should consider it part of your BOB kit. It adds weight, and needs (ammo, maintance, and some good conditions) which is that last thing you need in a "shit hits the fan" situation. A good knife will go a long way. It will start fires, kill prey, protect you and make some of the grueling task seem easier. Being in Florida I also have in mine. Fishing hooks, Fishing line, Compass, Topo Maps of the area, 550 cord, Salt, Chicken Broth Cubes, Flint Stone, Iodine, Mirror, Magnifine Glass. I think there is more but I would have to go and look. In the long run you will need to know what makes you tick and what you couldnt live with for week. I once knew a guy who needed to brush his teeth everyday and packed a toothbursh and paste in his kit.

regnar no problem we do a few trips each year. the feb trip is a big open invite where its bring what you can carry.  last year we did the feb trip, and a ultra light weight BOB trip with a 20lb gear limit in may. we will prolly do the same thing this year and maybe  one other trip.
