So if you own more than just a basic folder (Case, Buck), you likely have a few options to use. One becomes your EDC, the knife you grab on a daily basis. Maybe one is your heavy-duty knife, when you need something more robust (this may be your EDC) But then there's the budget folder, the one...

As prices increase on food and other basic living expenses people have to get creative in order to live well, which is not the same as living in poverty. I am interested in seeing what the group can put together for living well on a tight budget, and maybe shed some light on things we all spend...

Hey all. I'm still a prepper on a very low budget. Recently, I used up the last single-dose packets of ibuprofen and acetaminophen in my EDC FAK. Refills of the said packs are pretty pricey ($10-$15, depending on the kind, for ~100 tablets.). I've seen some people just purchase the bulk...

We recently moved and our new areas closest grocery store is an Always-Save. I had never shopped there before. Its my favorite store now. It took me a few trips to get used to the layout and most especially to the store brands. In just a few trips, we found the store brands to be better than...

Thinking about getting an AK pattern rifle, I like the ak 74. Pros and cons of the 74 vs the 47? Thanks. Any advice on good brands, ammo, mags, etc? Don't know all that much about aks and I'm on a small budget but want quality. Any help is appreciated thanks

I'm certain it's been asked before however, I am on a limited budget and I would like to start prepping. I would love advice on what to save up for and what I need to buy and what isn't worth getting etc. If you have answered this sort of thing before perhaps handing me a link? :) I'm excited...

Made a video on my DIY Budget Medical Kit. I feel like its missing some supplies but I'm not exactly sure what. Please let me know what you think

I have noticed that a lot of times when reading other people questions regarding urban preparedness that there seems to be some good responses and ideas but most still do not answer the basic questions of "What can I get to start prepping on a low budget ?". A lot of people who want to get into...

Hey folks, I've got an old Remington model 700 .308 that belonged to my dad. He bought it sometime in the late 70's and it was left to me when he passed. It currently has an old Tasco 3x9 on it which he mounted when he bought the rifle, the glass is actually pretty good on those older Tasco...

I'm sort of new to the website.. I'm 15. I have grown up with my father around weapons in the Las Vegas area. I learned a lot of things about what's going on around us. Not until about a few months ago did I take everything for granted and think life was perfect until my mother the only one who...

Ok guys I've been wanting to start hunting. I am currently saving up for a hunting rifle, in the mean time I will be hunting squirrel to "get my feet wet". Right now I own a 10/22 (for squirrels and zombies) that I have done a little work to upgrading and what not, and I have my savage model 320...

Micro houses, shipping containers, yurts etc. I have a preference for something underground due to hidden and controlled temperature characterists. I'd like to have an idea of what I will need to spend to support a family of four. Thanks

Im going pheasant hunting for the first time in a few weeks. This will be my first ever hunting expedition as I try out my new Remington 870. However I need some new hunting clothes so can anyone recommend some stuff? I know its technically upland game but in the future I dont want to have to...

As of right now, my MBR for when the SHTF is my SKS. Im pretty comfortable with it, but most people have suggested that I get a mag fed semi auto and use the SKS for backup. Now I see that would be a wise choice. If I get one ive decided to go with the AK platform in 7.62x39 for...

I tend to frequent Thrift Stores a couple of times a week. You never know what you'll find, and at a pretty good price. I did a search of this topic and found one hadn't been done. (If so I apologize). I for one like to explore and "hunt" for stuff that others think is junk and I don't want...
