Well like we have said, it's a journey we are on, just like the rest of us. We try to work on ourselves as much as we can, so thanks for the advice. And hopefully one day you'll see us on a video in shape and can congratulate us on our hard work!
@@LuckyManSurvival i’m not here for external validation nor should you be…. But listening to a fat survivalist is like listening to a skinny chef… I honestly do like some of y’all‘s videos though. I’m just big into fitness and if you suffer now and get in shape you’ll suffer a lot less later
I’m glad to see that my comment got a reply and until you have 100,000 subscribers or more, you really shouldn’t talk about who has more subscribers or likes because when you have 90 subscribers, you shouldn’t use it as a pawn on your shelf of achievements because it’s not one yet I’m not here to achieve anything other than learn stuff from videos like yours and others. I do talk some shit here and there. Yes if it’s not allowed on your channel, let me know and I won’t do it anymore here, I’ll respect your boundaries and your boyfriends.
Me and the boyfriend appreciate it lol 😆 and we are not here for validation, we are here to spread knowledge that we feel after years of learning can help others that's all. And trust me we both know we need to get into better shape, but if our weight is the only thing we are doing wrong I'd say that's a decent victory. Appreciate the apology.🤙
Thanks for the laughs! I love firearms and I appreciate good advice, but…you could have cut to the chase by sitting around and fire pit and just debating the available options for each category w/o going into brands and calibers, which tend to distract simple minded people.
You know I heard myself say that during the edits and you are absolutely right, it's about 4 thousand. I do have a PSA rifle however that has had 10K through it but I've had to do regular maintenance.
I Thank both of you gentlemen for sharing your knowledge of firearms and accessories. I definitely appreciate the time and effort that you both put into this video. A definite thumbs up and sub from me. Keep up the awesome work and I look forward to you guys next video 💪💪👍…………. FYI…. The individuals with the negative and profoundly ignorant comments about this video is the main reason why any person should prepare themself… people are ignorant for free in this world and more than likely will become expired or quickly become a victim of their own ignorance.
We thank you for your support and your sub!!! 🙏 We hope to keep putting out content you guys enjoy and help you guys on your journey of preparedness same as us!!!!! And we really appreciate the kind words!!! 🤙🤙🤌
@@thomasholohan4090 I wouldn't say long range, but the option of a bolt action rifle is going to be more proficient as well as have the added benefit of barrel length over the AR pistol mentioned later. An AR rifle could also be considered long range if there are parts to it such as a long range optic, a bipod or other things that accommodate for the longer range.
@@thomasholohan4090 the reason I put it as a long range option is the accuracy a bolt action rifle gives, the fact that the rifle is created as a long range option for example I would be more confident shooting 5 or even 6 hundred yards with that rifle in comparison to a red dot optic on an AR 15. It's not so much the caliber as it is the way the rifle is set up to accomplish long distance. Hopefully that helps
Good job in making a video about the SHTF. I think we need to make more videos about this topic. A couple of pointers: 5.56 / 223 is not a Long range round. Long range starts at around 700 to 800 yards and beyond. 10.5” AR SBR may go up to around 200 to 300 yards, but that short barrel will not allow the 5.56 round to perform how it was designed to at longer distances. I agree with the 308 guy. 308 is a great option for SHTF. I respectfully disagree with your opinion about the 1911. It is not a reliable platform. Glock has been proven to out perform the 1911 platform and has been in service for a very, very long time. If you do like metal guns, the Sig, Beretta, and S&W are a lot better choices compared to a Kimber. But if you like your 1911 platform, you do you, but just know that the topic is about SHTF, a 1911 is not a SHTF gun. But a Glock is.
Thank you so much for the information and the very helpful knowledge!!!! I agree with the Glock platform especially 19. He has his preference but don't let that discourage you from the fact he does have other handguns including Glock for both of us as well. Your information will help a lot of people!!!!!
Since a SHTF scenario has so many variables, you need a truckload of items. Nuclear war, zombies (?), pandemic, China invades, Russia invades, US Govt. invades, economic collapse, meteor strike, environmental disaster, weather disaster, and so on. That means you may need to be armed to repel a military or simply repel hunger. So are you fighting armed soldiers, other preppers, or simply finding squirrels and rabbits for food? And in a world like that, odds are gas ends, so vehicles end, so all of this stuff you need to carry on your back. Don't forget you need to carry water, food, protection from the elements, first aid gear, tools, and such. And you are going to carry an additional 50 lb. of guns and ammo? Are you held up in a protected location or on the move? The only real preparation is to be flexible and adaptable.
Don't forget knowledgeable! Knowledge weighs nothing and like you said being adaptable and knowing skills can make you an asset instead of a liability, like the great Yvonne Chouinard says, the more you know the less you'll need.
A shotgun is not best for home defense, will it work yes, but there are much better options these days. Anyone saying shotguns are the best home defense weapon have no idea what theyre talking about. Oh and a 22 will easily go thru and thru a human head at 400 yards, thankfully these are your opinions but you're telling people wrong.
Although we love feedback, there is a few things in your statement that is false. First, a 22 has an effect range of 150-200 yards at the most, it barely taps paper at 400 and the drop the bullet will have will be so much that you would have to be an expert marksman for the shot and it still most likely wouldn't even go through a shirt at 400 yards. And if you think shotguns aren't great for home defense talk to Clint Smith who will have a big difference in opinion than you.
@@LuckyManSurvival perhaps you should test that because many have and proven what you've said both times is wrong about the 22, I myself have taken game at distances further than you claim it can when I was a young teenager 🤣. I said it's not the best, reffering to the shotgun, and you can point to any "expert" that will corroborate your opinion. Let me guess you don't have to aim with the shotgun either right🤣. Something with less recoil and higher capacity will ALWAYS beat a shotgun in such a situation. Can a shotgun be used effectively? Yes it can, im not saying it can't but I am saying it's not the best. Do some testing and research on these claims so you can see for yourself, I won't hold it against you once you see the error in your ways 🤣.
@@alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548 Well I'm glad you are good with a 22 at long distance, and yes it can be somewhat effective, but it would have to be a precise shot either in the head or a major artery and even then you are really reaching. Secondly, shotguns for someone who knows how to run and gun a shotgun well will be more than effective at close range for home defense. And you absolutely need to aim a shotgun, you can poke fun but trust me when I say this, a rifle inside the home will be 10x louder and more disorienting than a shotgun and if you are using the right load you can ruin someone's day without over penetration and is much more devastating at close range than a rifle. Inside the home you have to seriously be concerned with over penetration, that's why we choose shotguns. But hey, I hope your home intruder is a squirrel for your love of 22 🤙
@@alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548 I will say this however, we are both survival channels and we have our differences in opinions but I've seen some of your videos and can say you seem to know a lot about survival. So I won't be continuing this pissing contest because at the end of the day we have the same goal, getting people into survival and bettering our viewers for bad times. So thanks for the fun back and forth and have a good day, maybe we will do a 22 video and see if we can find out who is actually correct! But until then have a good day 🤙
So, there's actually a reason for that. His picatinny rail is too short for a good fit with eye relief, but luckily this cantilever mount is a level mount so there's no degree change between front and back. So his scope is as level backwards as it would be forward on this mount. But good catch, don't worry I mounted that scope myself and insured it was level, no degree change and is zeroed perfectly. But damn good catch, hope to hear from you again!
@@LuckyManSurvival wouldn’t it be better to just use a set of rings then, instead of a cantilever mount? I think that may make more sense to go with a good set of rings. Would bring down the height over bore a bit too.
@@Usmc0341 absolutely great idea! At the time it was pulled off a previous rifle to save a bit of money, but I think that is a good idea I think he would like that too since he's had that for a while now is the best time to upgrade
A .22 lr, barely rips through paper: lmbo! Has to be; one of the silliest things I've ever heard of, the lowly. 22 has been doing it's job since it's inception. Moreover anyone in the dirt from it, would tell you; it was enough... Great video, but that; made my ears perk up!
@@LuckyManSurvival lol right on bro; I call it the magic bullet: within a couple hundred yards from my 10/22, loaded with CCI Velocitors or mini mags (solids) bx25's (zero recoil). Certainly, in my top five as well.

Solid option on the bolt gun. You should try some 75 grain match ammo and see how they perform.
That's actually what parker uses on a normal basis
But thank you for the information!!!!!!!

Is the .223/5.56 really a "long range" rifle? I don't believe so.

Hi Raz

Don't forget knowledgeable! Knowledge weighs nothing and like you said being adaptable and knowing skills can make you an asset instead of a liability, like the great Yvonne Chouinard says, the more you know the less you'll need.
the last things you want are slow-arsed bolt actions, short-ranged, low penetration shotguns or anything NOISY.
Why do you say that? Can you elaborate? 🤔
