The question echoes: ‘Will there be a civil war by 2028?’ Some argue it’s already here. Not North vs. South, but a war of insurgency, a clash of ideologies where violence erupts, and people are hurt. The battle lines are drawn. #CivilWar #Insurgency #PoliticalClash #CurrentEvents
GMRS radios sit idle, but mesh radios, even uncharged, boost network strength. A small battery pack makes them active participants, unlike Baofengs. Grow the mesh by getting more people involved. #MeshNetwork #GMRS #RadioCommunication #TechTips
500 rounds of 9mm weigh 8-9 pounds. A pocketful of .22 LR? Much lighter. Is .22 Long Rifle the ultimate CCW round for you? #CCW #SelfDefense #Firearms #22LR #9mm

Debating the top ammo calibers for survival bartering. While 5.56 is popular, the discussions lean towards 9mm for its commonality and .22LR for its underestimated utility and suppressed quietness. The consensus? .22LR might be the surprising dark horse. #SHTF #Bartering #Ammo #Survival #Prepping #9mm #.22LR
This is one of the coolest pieces of gear I’ve tested in a long time. The PowerFilm LightSaver Max is more than just a solar panel — it’s a solar generator in a roll-up tube that can charge itself, power your rig, and fit inside your backpack.
In this video, I put it through a real-world torture test: running my Icom IC-705 on 10 watts FT8 for over 4 hours straight. No wall power, no gas — just pure sunlight stored in this portable battery.
Whether you’re into POTA, emergency comms, or off-grid ops, this setup proves solar QRP can be both simple and reliable.
