SHTF needs to happen .

My "adventures" have left me partly disabled and scared. Those are the "side effects" that I could do without. YMMV

Similar. I'm not disabled, but I have multiple scars and attendant nerve damage. I don't care for any more, nor do I want my family to bear any.

OK... EVERYONE, cheer the HELL up already!

Haha.

Good call. And what better way than seeing what we all secretly want to do at the airport.

Did someone say Savage? How about a 99 in .300 Savage, built in 1943?

My model 44 Stevens looks in line with those somehow.

Meds take me regularly Im just looking for advice on a certain project I'm fairly eager to start.

First, heat up the bar to non-magnetic and quench it in oil. Then, set the bar in a vice and try to hammer the tip to see if it bends or cracks. If it cracks, then it is a somewhat suitable blade steel.

Draw a design and transfer it to the bar. Use an angle grinder or bench grinder to rough out a shape. Then use an angle grinder/files/belt sander to rough in your bevels. Once your bevels are a few mm thick, heat to non-magnetic and quench. Temper until straw color, finish bevels, sharpen and slap a handle one of your choice.

Good luck to you!

I watched the videos of your countrymen's guns being chop sawed and dumped into the shredder back in the 90's.

Just sayin

From their warm alive hands!!

SHTF?

Chain saw bar is too soft. Usually won't harden.

@Deviate6 google Selco and also FerFal. Read their experiences in Bosnia and Argentina respectively, then tell us how great SHTF is.

Do prepare for disruptions as the world changes. Be ready for when bad things happen, but never, never wish for it.

Don't assume that the "good guys" will win because when pressed for survival a "good guy" will put you down as fast as anyone else. Also, don't assume that whoever "wins" that it will be the people you want or that even f they do it will solve your problems.

Lots of lessons to be learned from this in other countries, practicle real world lessons. Very sound advice, be prepared, but don't wish for it.

I know many want to hit the reset button and restore this republic, me included, but rest assured it'll be messy, bloody and will most likely tear us apart, rather than put us closer together.
