I use the Beretta 92FS and Colt M4 due to DoD Standards. I know that most National Guard Armories and Reserve Base Armories have said firearms, parts, amgazines, and ammunition that would be usable by me. I wish DoD issued GLOCK 22s but since that is not the case I stick with what DoD issues.

Your gear is great, but I like your library better. Is that a bound copy of "Signal" magazine I see among your collection, next to the Guinness book of records? I have been on the lookout for copies for years.

p.s. Here in my part of Australia you would need water filtration and purification gear of some sort. (Charcoal filters) It may not be necessary where you are.

Here's some Signal issues but they're pricy. This company is where I buy all my used books.

5.56 and senojekips, this is about as good as you get in the hardcover and dust jacket. All are used of course. There are also some first editions but they run about $30.00.
Serendipity Books in Colorado also has a good collection of hard to find books.

Best of Signal: Hitler's Wartime Picture Magazine

why a copy of the US constitution. IMHO, at least where i live for the most part, if the SHTF, the constitution would be null and void. anyways, in a national emergency, the constitution is rendered invalid (and has been invalid since FDR declared a national emergency during WW2. my source is a book my mother bought me entitled secrets and lies, has a bunch of conspiracy theories and other things that are unbelievable, but this one seems pretty accurate)

Talk about bringing back the dead.... this is over two years now.

I carry a copy of the Constitution to remind myself of what my rights are and those of my fellow citizen..... I'f I'm going to rebuild society.... then why not from the best guide book out there.
 
Memo to self....Do not attempt to enter 5.56's house without his express written consent........


Very nice set up! :)
 
Awesome kit, though I'd also recommend Collins Gem SAS Survival Guide.
Also, a vest without so much black might be better.
