Thanks, Keith. The Guidesman lights look like they are worth checking out.

Menards has a 110 lumen metal flashlight by Guidesman that is very durable and very very bright. Powered by two AA batteries and led bulb. I keep it by my nightstand . Only around $20.00. Worth every penny.

Penelope, Thank you, I’m glad I could help! Try to find a range that rents guns and shoot as many as you can before you buy. If you have any questions then email me (see the Contact page). When you find your perfect gun, come back and let us know what you bought. Keep the faith and welcome to the world of guns!

Thank you for this! I’ve been trying to find the perfect gun for myself, and after reading countless blogs saying that because I’m a woman, I should buy a small, snub nosed revolver (or other ones like it), I was getting tired of it all. This is just what I needed to read!

Comment on Food Storage: MREs, Freeze Dried or Real Food? by SchemaByte

My general suggestion to new preppers is to work up two years of food supply by building a rotating first-in-first-out pantry with canned and dehydrated foods before getting into longer-term storage. At the same time, start gardening and sprouting on your own.

Adding in longer-term storage of things like dehydrated beans using Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers and self-canned vegetables are good things to do down the road, of course.

Comment on He Came Out of Nowhere… by SchemaByte

Good points and well-written, thank you. The only addition to it I would make is to note that vulnerability is also a function of where and when you choose to conduct your business; you’re far more likely to be targeted visiting an ATM at 3am than noon. So in addition to being aware of what’s around you, have a bit of foresight so that you can avoid having to, for example, stop for gas at that lonely little gas station between towns.

Or, put another away, let your awareness cover a bit of the future too, eh. =)

Nicely done! Supplementally, folks might want to check out the official FEMA list:

This (your list) pretty much mirrors what I’ve got going down, only of course I have to have a pistol and first-aid kit alongside. =)

Justin, The open carry laws have not changed. You do not need a permit to carry either open or concealed as long as you are not a prohibited possessor. You can read my post on the Arizona gun law changes HERE.
