what did you do this week to prepare

[KhonHd]

Attention people. Wal-Mart no longer stocks ammo. Sorry. They've had such a tough time stocking it that they called it quits. Go on home. Nothing here to see.

I just picked up another 100 rounds of shotgun ammo and 333 rounds of .22 from Walmart this weekend. Lots on the shelves. So they still stock it here in Canada. Got to like those bulk packs of 100 shotgun rounds

In fact the Wally World here has Winchester .270's for about half the price I've seen them anywhere else, unless they're just clearing out stock and not re-stocking, no problemo.

I found a propane turkey fryer at the thrift store for $10.00. Brand new. I don't think it's ever had the first blaze on the burner. I'm not crazy about deep frying turkey (although it's great) but I thought it would make a crazy soup pot if I needed one.

And, hold on to your hat for this one, a Shakespeare Spider Man spin caster for $1.99. I'll have to hang on to it for a day or two just to play with it (Hey, I like Spider Man, too!) then I'll give it to my oldest grandson.

I've never tried to fry a turkey with mine but does a real fine job boiling crawfish or frying fish for get togethers. My mom borrows it every year when canning. She don't like a pressure cooker in the house. Would rather be outside when canning.

shhhhhh tennecedar, you're making me HUNGRY! I haven't had a decent crawdad boil since I moved up here.

That made me laugh so hard I farted.

Some of the best turkey I've had has been deep fried with about 1/2 bottle of italian dressing injected beneath the skin. Nice score Rick.

That's like "Spider Man. The Bad Years".

Gosh! Do you smell something. Pee U!

Found some deals this week, picked up two new 24 round shotgun shell belts for $5.00, going back for more if I get the chance before they run out. Also picked up another speedloader for the .44 mag, tent pegs, water proof (resistant?) matches, lightsticks, small container of bug repellant, and a 250ft roll of black nylon twine (it ain't paracord, but for lighter tasks). Can't wait until Sunday, going to the gun show....

My neighbor lost he house to all of this , so I stopped to say good by and he gave me a generator ( still in the box ) , a 10" miter saw , 20 lb. bow of 16 pen. nails and I don't know what all.. I have been thinking that Nails and plywood are all good things to have on my list , right there with food and water you can do a lot with them . But like ammo right now , when we need it may not be able to get it ..

Picked up a Mossberg 500, It's the 12ga black home defense model. 6 shot, heat shield, synthetic stock and forend. Its nice. I put my 5 shell holder on the stock and it is a beaut. sunday I will go to the range with her.

[Rick]

I'd like to see some pics. I've been looking at the Mossberg 590A1 series. You might like the looks of this one. It's called the Mossberg Tactical. I've never seen one in the States. This one is from Denmark.

If you posts pics you can post them in the gun forum.

I have a 500 - good shotgun. Is the Mossberg 590A1 legal in the U.S.? Barrel length?

Moved up my three day trip to this Sunday through Tuesday.

Practiced my at home bug out routine. I was using my new internal frame pack, it's so new it hasn't seen the woods yet. Ten minutes is nice from nothing packed, But I want it back down to three.

Now I have to wait for work to finish my bug out scenario. The scenario is society falls apart, the usual rioting, looting, whatever occurs that I want no part of. But it happens as I'm leaving work at 7 am. Since I have never been to Cherokee National Forest, it's a perfect chance to run off to an unknown area, to see how well I hold up for three days.

After checking the extended weather report they're calling for thunder showers. for those three days. At least the bears will leave me alone.

I have a 500 as well. Plain ole black, pump, 12ga - nothing fancy. Stopped at a yard sale today on the way home from work. Picked up a 20lb propane bottle for $3.......and it was full!

Very good score. I noticed the other day a new blue rhino brand tank is $60 without a trade in.
