    What many non-Americans don't seem to realize is that the US has a lot of undeveloped wilderness. (Not as much as Canada or Australia, but still.) If, for whatever reason, you're out in the middle of nowhere with no help around, you have to take charge of your own well-being by providing for your food, water, shelter, warmth and protection from animals. Guns can play a role in that situation, and that's what this video is focusing on. I hate having to spell out the obvious, but apparently there are a lot of oblivious people out there.

    Like the Boy Scout motto says, "Be prepared." It's a philosophy that applies to EVERYTHING. For example, when I ride my bike, I wear a helmet and have a saddlebag with a first aid kit. Does this make me an extremist, or lunatic? Nope; because if I need it, I have it. So, this is why one should have a basic survival kit. One who is prepared doesn't seem so extreme after the unprepared person finds themselves wanting in a dire situation.

    • @TheWhiteGuy82
      @TheWhiteGuy82 10 років тому +5

      Indeed. I see people talk poorly about the idea that our society could be thrown into chaos, and the need for survival knowledge would make itself useful....however, if there's one thing that history teaches us, it's that there's good times and bad for mankind. Do modern industrialized nations have it pretty good? Sure, but does that mean that a natural disaster couldn't change that in a heartbeat? Of course not. There are many plausible scenarios in which the "SHTF": supervolacnoes, wide-scale earthquakes, a comet striking the planet, an unusually strong solar flare could destroy the electric grid, economic meltdown, etc etc. Why is it that people tend to think that these things could never happen when they DO happen at regular intervals on our planet? With so many plausible situations in which law enforcement and Walmart cannot guarantee our safety/sustenance, I'd guess it's better to be prepared just in case.

    • @Gottaculat

    @cz2906 5 років тому +8

    The AR7... From my own experience, I would recommend sighting it in using a bench and support, and, using a good quality epoxy, secure the front sight blade with the epoxy. Over time, the plastic front sight blabe will tend to loosen and drift. I've had 2 and had the same malfunction with both. The last one moved out of adjustment when I bumped it pulling out of the stock.
    OH! And, unlike James Bond, I haven't haven't had an opportunity to shoot down any helicopters with mine... YET!

    Am I the only one that thinks a mosin nagant is a VERY good survival rifle? It can take down just about anything: deer, elk, moose, hog, cougar, brown and black bears, and if you need to people. Its very rugged and reliable. To clean it, you can tie knots in some paracord, and dip it in motor oil and just yank it right though the barrel, hell that's what the red army did(a plus side to that is, dogs can't smell it like that, they smell for gun cleaner not oil). Ammo for it is still very cheap, I can get a spam can of 440 rds for about $100 give or take, and most of them are under $250. Yea you will need a shotgun for some game, but a shotgun won't hit a deer at 20p yds.

Light wgt too. When i was growing up in Fairbanks i got a MARLIN 39A LEVER ACTION 22 FOR my 8TH 1956 BIRTHDAY..IF my DAD BOUGHT ME a 50RD BOX of 22 lr AND i ONLY ACCOUNTED FOR 48 CRITTERS killed to eat I GOT SPANKED. 1 shot 1 kill.

  • @flyingninjafish1558
    @flyingninjafish1558 3 роки тому +1

    Watching this reminded me about a gripe I had with shotguns in survival situations/SHTF scenarios. They are kinda impractical for long term use unless you are working out from your home due to the amount of ammo you can carry. Shotgun shells are not small and take a lot of room in a pack so carrying them about is kinda impractical for long term. They do make good guns to have if you have a place to store a lot of shells and have easy access to them, but not for any long term bug out stuff.

Have killed a buttload of pheasants/chukar/sporting clays with it. Have since gone to a cheap over/under, much easier on my bad back, so i'm thinking of converting my 870 to home defense shotty.

It is more accurate than my 10/22 so it has replaced my 10/22 for hunting purposes. It's also allot more fun to shoot!!!

      H. C. The bowie is good for cleaning out a horses hoof if need be, that’s what the clip is for on the tip. It’s not actually as useful today as say a drop point. From a nostalgia standpoint it’s pretty neat though.
      The point of a bowie is also found near the front of the knife.

    Good video!
    I've been interested in WW2 history for almost as long as I knew what it was and I'ld like to point out that there seems to be no historic evidence of any of any Japanese landing on the mainland of Alaska during the war.
    There was a small fleet that was sent to the region in an attempt to draw the Americans away from the actaul combat areas as a decoy measure that failed for the most part.
    One of the most significant things that occured during that time was the loss of a Japanese Zero fighter that crashed on an island off the coast and was later recovered in almost perfect condition by the Americans which lead to a greater understanding of how to build a fighter that later ruled the Pacific Theater of war.
    If there is proof of Japanese soldiers on the mainland I would love that information as I know that I learn new things almost every day!

      That is the decoy action I was talking about but those arent really considered mainland Alaska. That Japanese task force wasn't an invasion force in the proper sense, thier mission was the take main elements of the US fleet out of the real combat zone.
      The Zero Fighter that was recovered from the Aleutian Islands helped changed the fighters of the day that the USA were fielding in the pacific Theatre.

      Good choices, but, Mossberg 500, because if the extractor breaks, the Remington 870 must be sent to a gunsmith. Mossberg can be replaced by the user. And the Remington 700 is too expensive. The Remington 710 or 770 provides almost as good accuracy (for the non-sniper trained) for half the money. The 226 is perfect. AK ditto but I also have a 7.62X54 AK (VEPR), that kicks a$$. But I would definitely stay with the Russian made AK.

      @johncisney15 8 років тому +6

      If it was an island (I'm assuming of the tropical persuasion), then you're probably not going to be dealing with large animals anyway. Mostly birds and smaller animals. Also, I would most likely forgo hunting in favor of fishing most of the time, as the ocean can often be a much better provider than the land, and I won't have to move inland, allowing me to also look for a rescue boat while fishing. The bow can be used for hunting small game and birds (which, again, is most likely all you'll find on an island), and it can also be used for fishing with enough practice. Meanwhile the gun's bullets would ricochet off the water, and lose most of their power if they did go in. So the bow is much more versatile. And as previously mentioned, you can reuse the arrows and craft new ones. And if by some stroke of luck there did turn out to be larger game on the island, then you can always set traps or deadfalls for them, or you can simply make a larger bow from the resources around you.

    Good point on the chamber inserts for a break open 12 or 20 ga. The most practical ones would probably be 357 and 9mm, since those are very common handgun rounds and likely to be found everywhere. I think the inserts are about 8" long. So u are liable to get some ballistic gain. Once the bullet leaves the insert i am sure it stops accelerating, because the gases spread out into the larger bore. Still a useful item though, and compact. I've been wanting to get a single shot specifically to have fun with that. Good point on the flare gun inserts too.

In a survival type situation (I've done a lot of backwoods self sufficient camping) I stick to Small Game, because a Deer is 2 days of work, while a Pika is done with in less than 2 hours. In those situations, my weapon of choice was a Baikal .22 Air Rifle, because I can carry 500 rounds in a hocky puck, and recast them (Gas check Minnie Balls) in the field. .30-06 is a fine round, no dispute. If it works for you, stick to it. That's why there's so many choices...
