    "Loose Lips Sink Ships"

     

    Easy;

    Co-workers, neighbors that have a axe to grind or are anti-gun, gun club member (we have a member in our Gun Club that strongly believes in gun restrictions and will provide a list of club members to the Police if such a law was passed in Kansas. It won't happen in Kansas. Just a example that other gun owners are not necessarily your friend)), children, Grandchildren, Discussion Forums such as this one, repairman that come into your house, hunting and fishing licenses.

     

    Don't forget angry ex-wife or girlfriend.

     

    When they want to get really serious about confiscation they can offer a cash bounty for turning in gun owners.

    Why is that guy allowed to remain a member?

  2. THE KELLY HUNTERS’ - 1880

    More than 200 police were engaged in the two-year manhunt for Ned Kelly and his gang but in all that time there was only a handful of his pursuers the outlaw truly feared: six Aboriginal trackers brought down from Queensland. Five of the trackers are pictured

  3. Scout, I'm so very much enjoying this thread. I'm only so far up to July 2025, I only come on to it when I really have the time to do it justice and have the ability to read a post and go over all the photos in great detail.
    I have it bookmarked, I don't think I will ever get to the USA, that's why I'm enjoying this thread so much.
    I know how much work is in making it and put up all the info and pics, and for that my thanks and gratitude.

  4. This will be the Last Steam Engine Torture Vid for a while pards (I promise) but I do appreciate you humouring me and watching them. 

    Thought I'd post this up after Dave posted the vid of Blondihacks using a small genny running off a steam engine to power her phone (if you watch much YouTube she's well worth subscribing to). 

    This is a plasma ball I wired up to a genny I bought off a guy in Germany (another fellow in Sweden helped me out with wiring the circuit) I routed the Aussie hardwood plinth and routed paths underneath for all the wiring, turned up the brass bolts on my lathe, cut the brass plate on my guillotine and turned the two brass risers for the wires.
    This is one of the grandkids favourites!

    It's an ever-evolving cycle of have and have not.

     

    When they come up to highways and there's literally hundreds and hundreds of abandoned cars with everyone's belongs who had tried to escape,l surely some of those cars would have been packed with weapons?
    Starting Season 3 and I haven't seen one AR15.

    It's a great rolling story and as Bob posted above "It’s about the humanity and inhumanity of people faced with the apparently impossible task of surviving in a changed reality" its what keeps you wanting to watch the next episode.
    Rick spilled to the group what the guy at the CDC whispered into his ear in the episode last night, that changed a few things for me.

    I shot a match with Squints yesterday, he's still kicking along. He and Bonnie just celebrated their 65th Wedding Anniversary and Old Gringo was up in Queensland shooting matches at a few clubs.

    You do have an incredible hobby. Do you have insurance in case of fire or theft? Is it even available? Have you ever run an inventory to see just how many and different kinds of steam engines and related equipment you have in your collection? If you ever get to the states you need to visit the Craftsmanship Museum in Carlsbad, California. I’m guessing your collection would far surpass theirs and they have a lot of them.

     

    They are listed under the content's insurance.
    I've watched a few walkthrough vids of the Craftsmanship Museum.
    This is another that's on my bucket list -
