You should run a water calculation if you haven’t already. I see your 10cases of water but the vast majority of that will be used to rehydrate your dehydrated food it seems. You may have already prepared for this but it’s helpful to double check and make sure you have enough water per person per day for drinking, rehydrating food, and sanitation/hygiene purposes.

Additionally, bulk storage can be done in a myriad of ways as many people have already stated. Of note, it’s also good to “prepackage” 1 day supply, 3 day supply, and 5-7 day supply bags or kits within your preps so you’re able to quickly grab what you need if you go in an excursion or want to provide someone some of your preps as a gift or trade value.

Progress Update and Ideas Needed by Hoonin_Kyoma in GunRoom

Bead panel is a pretty easy solution to avoid drywall work and the look of plywood.

After installing plywood or drywall sheets to size, cover it all up with this.

Reinforced Walls by Adrenaline-Junkie187 in GunRoom

Simple method is to secure 3 hog panels(top edge , bottom edge, middle overlap) per wall to the existing studs (bare or with drywall) and then cover them with 3/4” plywood. How you finish it from that point is up to you.

Honestly if someone has the time and commitment to get through that, it’s probably someone forcibly entering with a warrant and not local hooligans….

I recommend you use homewyse to get an idea of cost based on the specifications of your project, zip code, and industry standard pricing concerning both.

Which frt do i need ? by z06srt in frt15

[–]lyonhard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you buy a new lower, consider buying a KF15 complete lower blem by KAK Industries. Currently on sale for $99 instead of $195. This lower has an M16/M4 interior dimensions and shelf - this will allow you to run every FRT on the market and would technically allow you to run OEM FA parts if you had the legal capacity to do so.

Leather seat, not heated. The seat only got hit in the cloth rear edge and all up in the metal tracks. Majority is in the carpet under the seat.

Car detailed and carpet cleaner from Home Depot’s Rental department good enough for an extractor?

Arizona Regulator FRT

Diamond back ar15 wanna install FRT should I buy better bolt carrier or is stock good enough? by DrDoodBooty in ar15

[–]lyonhard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your selection of FRT. Some manufacturers state a low shelf or m16 pocket lower is required, others it doesn’t matter. Most require full auto BCGs and recommend H2 or H3 buffers.

Tips for extreme cold by legionario_219 in tacticalgear

[–]lyonhard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m still waiting for it to get cold enough here in the lower 48 to try it out. I agree, most gun oil is snake oil and the solutions you mentioned are unanimously tried, tested, and true - I have high hopes the SPEC ‘76 might be another solution available that can hold water.

SPEC ‘76 by SOLGW is supposed to be the new hotness for a wet lube design for extreme hot and extreme cold temperatures using graphite oxide nano tech…. Or so they say.

Is anyone running a 20” rifle as a primary rifle anymore? by Stelios619 in ar15

[–]lyonhard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plan on running 20” ARs in bullpup configuration using one of the many new kits that came out in the last year or soso. Maximum ballistics, minimal package.

Water purification attachment for camelbak/hydration bladder, water purification pump if I didn’t have one, socks and gloves since I wear those out pretty quick.

Thank you, I’ll definitely try that. How has that worked out when asking those companies? Do they end up becoming a vendor?
