The EFJ 5100. Shares battery, antenna and accessory connector. Versions with the 380-470 MHz range are Federal government spec and likely contain the AES encryption module. The 5100ES with firmware major version 6 are the most recent and robust.
I’d consider something like that, if I didn’t enjoy my firearms quite so much. If my later life plan was to disappear completely and be a hermit in a foreign country, though… this looks very promising.
The only thing actively preventing me from considering an expat situation is my kids and my guns.
The XTS is a P25 radio, different digital protocol than DMR. I wouldn’t worry about firmware updates… if it works and functions as you need they’re a set and forget kind of thing. I’ve got the cousin to the XTS, EF Johnson 5100’s. They’re my grab a radio and go solution, I have encryption...
From the article…
Owens is spot on here. Veritas without O’Keefe is flatlined. Likely some or all of the other board members got a fat envelope of bills and instructions.
I’m not sure what sort of plumbers they’re hiring out in Oakland, but when I was growing up blue collar trades were the ones you had to watch out for if you stole from them. I’ve seen more than a few guys on sites who looked like they’d have no problem whipping a 4’ pipe wrench like it was a...
Agreed. A permit to exercise a right de facto makes it not a right. Rights do not involve permission.
NICS is a slightly more sticky wicket… by and large the citizenry should be presumed innocent, and this should apply to purchasing guns as well, thus there is no need for a background check...
I’ve seen NYSP and CBP stopping buses on NY-17 aka I-86. From inside the bus… I was riding the grey dog to a trucking job. That’s almost there, and it’s common practice.
I did exactly that with a 2004 Suburban. Bought in southern MD so still some salt exposure but minimal… hauled kids dogs and the kitchen sink, then unloaded it last year for what I paid for it 8 years ago. Still didn’t have nearly as much rot as a local one.
Screw all that. I’ll look on Craigslist or Bring a Trailer for a reasonably well cared for Chevy square body or Ford Highboy. I don’t need a tall car, I need a damn pickup truck, just like grandpa had.
Ouch, that’s a damned if you do damned if you don’t hot potato for sure. My biggest concern would be that the gun was stolen or the serial number defaced.
In America, I’d likely call the cops to inquire if it were stolen and if it was not, keep it myself…. But we don’t live there, and being...
Officer safety would be jeopardized by going after likely-armed criminals. Better to continually chip away at the tolerance of the populace in general with soft targets like vehicle and traffic, and once in a while score a big bust as a byproduct to keep the public from questioning too much...
I’d hazard a guess that birds with avian flu taste the same as birds without, when barbecued, roasted or boiled. But, poultry being one of the least expensive non plant proteins, needs to be curtailed. We can’t have the plebeians eating meats, remember?
Oh and on the egg note, ducks are...
Sometimes I think shooting is too good an end for these people. Perhaps drawn and quartered, with the pieces shipped to their accomplices, would be a better way to get the message across.
Where are these supposedly oppressed and penniless migrants getting ahold of a BMW to drive around, fake plates or no? While you can get used and abused but still ok looking examples for mere thousands on Craigslist, that still requires cash on hand, something I wasn’t aware these migrant folks...
There are not even close to enough truck stops to accommodate the truck traffic in any given corner of this state at any given point in time. Even with trucks hanging out in shippers, receivers, gas stations, empty lots and anywhere else they can conceivably find to get off major roadways, there...
I expect that’s inevitable anyway, I’m just not sure 3 months is enough to injure Schwab, Soros and friends. I want them to experience pain and suffering, uncertainty as to where their next meal will come from or if they’ll even be alive to see it.
Not long enough. 6-9 maybe. It’s got to be long enough to severely stifle the limousine liberals current freedoms to do what they want and walk all over everyone else. Just waiting for their Tesla batteries to die isn’t enough. When they start attempting to subsistence hunt/fish/farm maybe then…
My Jewish friend used to call this “zetzen”… left a welt to remember on my rib cage one fine day when I was completely minding my own business.
On topic…. In this post George Floyd landscape, what are these idiots doing? I feel like we’ve established that no matter how much of a cretin the...
My current top 5…
1. Browning BLR Takedown in .30-06
2. A Garand, as close to showroom condition as I can afford
3. A Mosin M44 Tula or Izhevsk
4. Mossberg 940
5. Sharps .50-90 rifle, granddad had an original production model that I sadly missed, he sold before he passed.
If the age of majority becomes sixteen it must be across the board. Military service, legal responsibility, access to jobs, alcohol and firearms, the whole lot. It isn’t an a la carte menu.
And an infant who somehow miraculously survived an abortion is “their body” how exactly?!
How about, if you don’t intend to reproduce, tie that shit off, rather than killing your child so it doesn’t inconvenience you further? Fucking sadists.
Horse shit. There are no routine traffic stops on the Meadowbrook… if you are unlucky enough to attract a trooper’s attention you were either driving like a rabid asshole (well, more than the usual assholes that seem to populate that roadway) or you hit something.
I’ve been on the Meadowbrook...
Eek. As you’ve sadly discovered, the answer to “Can we go inside” regardless of reason is “No”, absent a warrant. If the shotgun wasn’t in play already, no reason to put in there. Though, if they were aware of it somehow and you refused them entry, they may have come back with a warrant to pick...
As a lefty in a world of right handed pistols, I can confidently assure you that hot brass causes warming on only a very local level, along with occasionally irritating minor impact.
Down the shirt collar with a tucked in shirt is the worst!
My BMW had a cellular box with remote connectivity. Useful for warming the car, checking if the windows were open, doors were unlocked from further away. But, it was based on 3G and hence is no longer operable.
IFTA and apportioned plates for the win. Nothing saying I have to register it in NY. Many companies register in OK or IN for equipment that doesn’t ever leave the state, my current gig included. There will always be holdout states that will plate damn near anything.
When I buy my own truck, I’m not getting anything newer than 2004. I think that towing the broken down newer trucks or electric trucks will be a lucrative niche.
Vote Cthulhu! Why settle for the lesser evil?!
Ok, all kidding aside, I like Mike Rowe. Down to earth, gets hands dirty, probably wouldn’t even dream of running for President. I’m also a big fan of Candace Owens… she’s got tons more potential than that ignorant bat in the Veep chair now. Also...
I find it exceedingly alarming, if Putin has in fact been to the front, and in a boots on the ground fashion as opposed to a flyover or similar. The top dog doesn’t come out for nothing.
Remdesivir and straight up neglect after being hospitalized could certainly be counted as COVID deaths, though from the treatment not necessarily the disease. We could also roll in the after effects of the array of shots and boosters.
All I see in that picture is a bunch of stabby things, a few wrenches, a dummy pistol, power tools and a rolling pin (?!). Oh wait, there’s a nondescript magazine…. Gun parts, eh?
