Re: Legal Self defence in the home

In the military our instructors like to keep things simple cos soldiers are, as everyone knows, as thick as two short planks! :lol: That being said, I have always though the basic rule we get given to 'control' escalation works in most situations: You can only match the level of force used against y...

Re: Sourdough Bread

The stuff that's being stored, can/should it be sealed i.e. in a jar?

Scratch that, found the answer in a different thread! Cheers, all.

Really!? You have a RIF that has a muzzle velocity greater than a Sig P226 (1150fps) and only slight less than half that of an SA80 Assault Rifle (3084fps)?

Re: Dogs.

I have a Staff too and he's exactly the same! Soft as anything, but you wouldn't know it to look at him; looks like a right bruiser! :twisted: He's a bit of a scrapper when he wants to be (despite being a huge coward), but he's learning that it's unacceptable behaviour most of the time. He's a great...

Re: Nuke Bunkers Website

A facility called Dounreay perhaps? http://www.dounreay.com/ Since the 1950s it has been the site of several nuclear research establishments, including a prototype fast breeder reactor and a test for submarine reactors. The problem with deploying nuclear weapons against nuclear facilities is that t...

Re: Home Security Plan

I live in the upstairs flat of a converted house; the front door opens directly onto the stairs. Due to the proximity of the town centre, we get the drunken 'knock and runs' on Fri & Sat night and on 2 occasions have had the door kicked in. Fortunately, on both occasions, I was home and responde...

Re: Nuke Bunkers Website

I found the Target Areas map quite amusing. Who would want to nuke Jophn O'Groats!? The targets appear to be random, they haven't highlighted military locations or, even, population centres. You know, things that military forces might actually aim at. As for their facts, they're just wrong: 1. 'The ...

Re: My new car GHB

Thanks FC, can't believe I forgot socks! As a professional soldier, I am suitably ashamed. :oops: I've also added 48hrs rations for the dog, as he's with me most of the time and would turn his nose up at the stuff that comes out of an MRE! I tend to wear some varitation of combat boot, even when off...

Re: My new car GHB

Having read though the replies, I seam to have much the same as has already been listed. Although, as is my preference, I think I'm running a bit lighter than other. My kit consists of: Day Sack Lightweight Sleeping Bag (3 Season) Karrimor Emergency Bag (Orange Heavy Duty Plastic Bivi) - Can be cut ...

Morning all.

New to the site, just thought I'd say hi. Actually found the site when I googled a make of Xbow which was mentioned in one of your discussions, had a look around and decided to stay. I'm looking at fairly low level prepping, at the moment. Mostly EDC, GHB and 1-2 weeks of Bug In stores. Being in the...
