what did you do this week to prepare

[Wildthang]

I bought 400 rounds of .22 magnum ammo for my new Ruger Single Six, and that's about it!

[Stiffy]

Went by a local thrift store and found a stainless, one pint pot for a dollar. I'll toss it in one of my packs, it's perfect for Ramen or instant oatmeal.

dried 50 lbs of onions last two days in huge wok on woodstove ... they toasted up nicely ... also canned several jars of whitefish and bass ... 23 small jars total ...this preppin stuff ain't cheap but it happens to be on top of our priority list !

Bought a signaling mirror and a Gerber Gator Machete.

[gunaroo]

Couple bricks of Federal .22.
A pile (100) CR123A batteries.

Spam was on sale @ 2/$5.00. I bought 40 cans.

Also, 20 lbs of quinoa. Balanced amino acids in a grain. Awesome!

Hey Guys! How is everyone?

I just picked up an evening job at a local grocery store. My 9-5 temp office jobs keep cutting me loose for lack of work. Hopefully, this little part time job will help us stay afloat better in this economy. And even though I cook a lot for my family, I have never formally had any jobs with food service/deli/bakery areas so this means new skills and an increase in my network!!!

Good luck with the new job.

I cut and split a couple weeks worth of wood.

I put a tin can stashed with a few essentials at the allotment. If the house burns down, or the sky falls down, I have copies of stuff there.

Found a Bulk box of .45 APC Brazer Brass, 200 rds.
Had a rule two little boxes or one big box, .....well duh.

Anyway, they did have CCI Stingers, .38 rat shot, .45 APC, .380.....that I was interested in.....\

Also, 9mm, .223, .357, .38's.

But had to pick one......what a PITA.

I got a brand new Rambo knife with the handy little survival kit in the hollow handle. A friend got it for a gift and thought I needed it worse that he did. He thought he was giving me something quite valuable and I tried really hard to act like I was way excited about my new knife. Man it was all I could do to not laugh after all of the posts on here about those knives!
So I threw it in a drawer out in the shop, and will give it to somebody else some day

Throw it in your truck......so if TEOTWAWKI happens you can impress all the wannabes on how cool you are and sell or trade it.....LOL

This week has been replace gas lines on several gas powered tools....chainsaws (2), weed whips (1)....and added 2 ft of spare gas line to the carry along tool box.

Ruger has BX-25 mags in stock as of yesterday. That's 25 round mags for 10/22 family. Got four more just before the ban on 1 July.

Spent a few hours yesterday cleaning all of my guns, and then spent another hour doing an inventory of my ammo supply.

And wouldn't you know it? I woke up this morning and discovered that both of my 600 lb. gun safes had been stolen.
