Liberty Ammunition Celebrates Veterans Day with 20 Percent off all Ammunition Purchases

Posted on Thursday, 10 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

10 percent of all proceeds from the Veterans Day Sale will be donated to Racing for Heroes.

Bradenton, Fla. (November 2016) – Liberty Ammunition is pleased to honor the men and women who’ve fought for our freedom, and the families who have supported them, this Veterans Day with 20 percent off all online ammunition purchases Nov. 11, 2016, only at www.libertyammunition.com. In addition, 10 percent of all proceeds from this very special sale will be donated to Racing for Heroes (RFH), a charitable organization focused on helping veterans with PTSD and TBI deal with the challenges they face as they attempt to assimilate back into society.

“Liberty Ammunition thanks all veterans, active duty, and their families for the service and sacrifices made on behalf of our great nation,” commented Liberty Ammunition’s VP of Sales and Marketing Matt Phillips.

RFH was founded by CW3 Mike Evock, USA, RET. as an “alternative therapy” for the veterans of North-Central Pennsylvania affected by PTSD and TBI through motorsports therapy programs. Many warriors only find their way on the path to recovery with other warriors. The focus of RFH is not primarily about racing cars, but about connecting vets with a purpose and saving lives. These programs have provided camaraderie among veterans who have found a level of recovery through auto racing.

Ammunition available on the Liberty Ammunition website includes 9mm, 40 S&W, 45 ACP, 380 Auto, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, 10mm Auto, 45 Long Colt and .223 Rem in Liberty Ammunition’s Civil Defense line and .308 Winchester and 30-06 Springfield in Liberty Ammunition’s Animal Instinct line.

UPDATE ON THE REMOTE PILOT IN COMMAND sUAS CERTIFICATION

Posted on Monday, 7 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

RPIC

We’ve just completed taking the FAA’s knowledge exam. The exam is advertised as a 2 hr., 60 question test; however, the FAA includes 5 or 6 additional questions to  validate them so plan on sitting for a 65 question exam. The only electronic aid authorized is a simple calculator – nothing with internal memory – just basic register memory. The examiner will provide the exam supplement, which contains VFR sectionals, paper and pencil. The exam is computer based and all of your answers are manually entered using your assigned workstation. There is a $150 charge to take the exam and the exam is graded immediately upon you submitting your test for grading.

The exam is not easy and you’ll need a score of 70 or higher to pass. I’ve listed areas that you should focus on, in order of most often encountered.

  1. Using VFR sectional charts, you’re going to need to identify Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E and Class G airspace. You’ll need to identify Victor Airways, Restricted Areas, Prohibited Areas, MOAs (Military Operation Areas.) You will need to identify airports with and without towers along with their communications frequencies for obtaining clearances, weather or UNICOM. You will need to locate an airport, obstruction or other landmarks given Lat & Long. You will need to determine the Lat & Long for similar items using the sectional chart.
  2. You will be asked numerous questions on weather, cloud formations and their general characteristics and you will need to have a good handle on density altitude and be able to read a METAR and TAF report.
  3. You will be asked a number of questions on center of gravity, stalls and angle of attack, as well as loading when your not in a straight and level attitude.
  4. The rest of the exam, I’d say about 20 question, will be on 14 CFR Part 107 regs, physical and emotional concerns, CRM (crew resource management) and Risk Management.
  5. You may see 1 or 2 question on airport operations (i.e. where do you hold, right of way, entering a pattern etc.)

If you don’t have a license, you may not operate in controlled airspace and you will not be able to use your drone for commercial applications. For example, if you operate a training facility and you plan to use an sUAS to document the training session, or in conjunction with the training curricula, you need to be licensed. If your use of the sUAS is compensated in any way or used in connection with your business, you’ll need a license.

If you are a mom or dad taking your kids out for a flight, make sure that you are using the FAAs B4UFLY app. Deviations from 14 CFR Part 107 will get you a felony charge.

THIS NOV 8th LET’S GET OUT THE #GUNVOTE

Posted on Friday, 4 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

GunvoteBillboard_2_Weeks

With just 4 days to go until the most important election in current history, we’d like our Friday shoot-the-shit topic to be about getting out the #GUNVOTE. Between now and election day, we are going to be working with our friends to ensure everyone gets out and votes. We are going to educate and motivate.

Voters will surely encounter lines at the polls, but not voting brings our country closer to a government that interprets public displays of faith as offensive and an infringement on the non-faithful. A government that views the 2nd Amendment as applicable to only the military. A government that will undermine the 2nd Amendment through the implementation of regulations that restrict gun rights. A government who’s unenlightened position on energy policy will drive energy costs through the roof crushing disposable income. A government with a long established history of influence pedaling. A government that didn’t care about the lives lost in Benghazi and a government that places its convenience above the demands for national security. How do you elect a Commander In Chief that was part of the Students for Democratic Society (SDS) movement during the Vietnam Era?

Talk to your friends, family and neighbors; give them the straight skinny but just as important help them get to the polls. Inform and motivate them!

Have a great weekend, be safe and spend some quality time with your buds and family!

WIND IS ALWAYS A CHALLENGE TO PRECISION RIFLE SHOOTERS

Posted on Wednesday, 2 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

Other than fundamental marksmanship skills, determining the right elevation and windage for accurate shot placement is a challenge; there lies the great success of the HORUS reticle. Elevation is by far the least problematic given today’s laser range finders which are capable of 1 meter accuracy in the popular commercial brands. Military and high-end commercial range finders will get you consistent sub-meter accuracy. However, wind remains a major factor in precision shooting.  The problem with wind calls is that unlike range finders there is no instrument that will give you the shooter an aggregate wind vector acting on your projectile in flight. Therefore good wind calls are really best guestimates based on increasing shooter experience. Wind meters like the Kestrels are indispensible tools but they only provide wind data at the shooting position and a lot can happen between the shooter’s position and your 800 meter target. The fact is that people are better at judging distance than they are at calling wind. So, we’re putting out this little horse that you can ride to success.

Wind corrections are all right triangle trigonometry. Take a look at the figure on the left. “A” is the shooter’s position, “C” is your target and “B” is your bullet impact. Line “a” is your eyeball estimate of how much correction you need to have POI and POA coincide. Line “b” is your range to the target measured with an LRF, given to you or measured optically.

What we need to do next is calculate the angle formed by line “c” and “b” the multiply that value by 17.45 to get the millradian correction. I’m not going to make you calculate all this out. You’ll use your smart device for that. I use Android so I recommend that you download and install Triangle Solver.

Here’s what the screen looks like…

Screenshot_2016-11-02-18-48-39

Let’s try a scenario. You fire at a 650 meter target and notice that your point of impact was right of the POA by approximately 22 inches. Enter 650 for your “b” value and enter 0.56, which is 22 inches in meters, for your “a” value. The app instantly calculated “A” which is the correction angle of 0.049 degrees; now multiply that value by 17.45, the result is .855 mills. To correct your fire apply .855 mills Left or Right  to what is already dialed in or use your horizontal stadia and hold .8 mills.

The entire process takes 30 seconds from start to finish. If you’re working with a spotter it’s probably even quicker.

As we mentioned earlier, this is a little horse you can use to help you out but it does not substitute developing and maintaining wind estimation skills.

A VERY POWERFUL MESSAGE FROM OUR FRIENDS AT DANIEL DEFENSE

Posted on Wednesday, 2 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

 

Dear Second Amendment Supporters,

On November 8th, we all have some difficult decisions to make. The country is very much divided on which candidates best represent our values and beliefs…on which candidates will lead us into a bright and prosperous future or a dark and unpredictable one. But, unfortunately, instead of focusing on the issues, the narrative of this election has been primarily about character assassination or who’s leading who in the polls. So allow me a moment to break through the façade of this election and address one issue I believe is vital to ensuring a free and prosperous America: The Second Amendment.

The Second Amendment guarantees our right, as U.S. citizens, to keep and bear arms, yet it’s under a constant barrage of attacks. Many incumbents and challengers believe this important amendment is outdated and should be ripped from the Constitution, the very foundation of what makes this country a beacon of freedom to the entire world. But we cannot allow this to happen. We must make our voices heard and elect officials who have the moral fortitude to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.

In just a matter of days, you and I will be called upon to perform our civic duty by participating in the electoral process to decide our leadership. Regardless of whether or not you personally like or dislike the candidates seeking office, the only way your voice will matter is if you allow it to be heard.

Recently Cindy and I had the honor and privilege of spending the day with a true American icon and patriot, Mr. Charlie Daniels. This remarkable man is a booming voice for patriotism, with a no-fear approach when speaking out in opposition to the tyranny of government and the hypocrisy of our elected officials. Charlie Daniels possesses a profound love of God and country, and he believes the Constitution is a living, relevant document that needs to be respected and defended. We were inspired by, and grateful for, our fellowship and conversation with Mr. Daniels. He’s a great example for us all, and I invite you to experience some of what we did with this educated, informed, and wise man by viewing a video of our time with him by clicking here.

 

Before casting your vote, I strongly encourage you to first educate yourself and research the candidates in order to make a more informed decision on the issues and potential elected officials that will have the greatest impact on your life. The National Shooting Sports Foundation’s (NSSF) GUNVOTE.org is a great resource for identifying your candidates and contains links to their individual websites.

Now is not the time to be complacent. We cannot make excuses for not taking action. Protecting the Second Amendment and our very way of life are at stake.

White River NEW Survival Knife Line for 2017

Posted on Wednesday, 2 November, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

White River Knife & Tool–www.whiteriverknives.com

Earlier this year White River Knives debuted their NEW Survival Knife line releasing prototypes to actual survival experts and a very limited few to the general public for use and abuse feedback. Their recommendations are the basis of this new knife line and its final design. Designed for heavy-duty use in real survival situations these also make excellent camp, hunting, backpacking or utility knives. Every part is 100 percent U.S. made.

The five-inch-long full length slab handle is heavy canvass green Micarta with an orange liner. The handle is contoured to make heavy cutting or chopping easy. The deep index finger choil cut allows for high pressure whittling and precision cutting. The grooves at the top of the blade (called jimping) are course for additional thumb traction even with gloves or mittens on and also form a rasp like surface for making fine sawdust for ease of fire starting. Just in front of the finger guard area is a cutout for efficient striking of a ferro rod fire starter rod and one is included with each knife and is part of the tough Kydex sheath.

Handle slabs are adhered with a super epoxy and three brass lined hollow handle pins. The three brass lined hollow handle pins make possible the lasing to a stick to turn this knife into a spear if necessary. The most rearward lanyard hole is larger for heavier mountain gear rope if desired.

The hand honed flat profiled stonewashed finish blade comes leather stropped razor sharp and is thick and deep for efficient cutting or chopping. One side of the knife handle features a polished stainless steel metal dish like cutout (divot) for use with a fire bow.

This is a well-designed great looking and robust knife intended for serious work.

White River survival knives come in three blade lengths; the basics for all are:

  • Blade: S30V steel with a stonewash finish.
  • Handle: Heavy canvass green Micarta with three hollow handle pins.
  • MSRP:

    $240, $280, $320 depending on model–see below please

  • Sheath: Kydex with ferro fire starter rod.

Individual model specifications:
 
Model FC-4                             Model FC-5                               Model FC-7
4-inch blade with 5″ handle     5-inch blade with 5″ handle       7-inch blade with 5″ handle
Blade thickness: 0.130″            Blade thickness: 0.158″             Blade thickness: 0.200″

NEW .45 ACP Civic Duty Round From G2 Research

Posted on Friday, 28 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

ConsidG2 Research– new .45 ACP round means nearly instantaneous stopping power. Consider an already large .45 ACP round which has proven over many years to stop fights quickly and render it 2-3 times more effective. That is a serious stopping power!

Old news: The 230 grain .45 ACP at 850 FPS was designed to stop or wound people quickly on a battlefield. A benefit on the battlefield but not for civilian self-defense due to over penetration of the intended target and becoming a danger to others. Newer and hotter .45 ACP hollow point rounds in the 185 grain 1,000 FPS range are an improvement – they expand up to .65 caliber (16.51 millimeters) yet still produce over penetration harming property or innocent people.

Good new news: The new G2 Research Civic Duty .45 ACP + P round solves several problems. It is designed to penetrate 6 to 8 inches in ballistic gel, depositing all its energy into the target. The design prevents it from passing through the target, instead quickly and fully opening inside the gel or fluid to prevent over penetration. It will expand to nearly 11/2 inches (nearly 38 millimeters). The large copper petals open like airplane propellers causing a large wound channel. It will stop the fight–quickly!

MSRP $59.99 a box of 20. These G2 Research Civic Duty rounds are individual CNC machined bullets. This level of engineering is needed to predict performance and maximum consistency for civilian self-defense.

       Specifications:

  • Caliber: .45ACP +P
  • Bullet: 164 grain solid copper CNC machined petal pealing hollow point.
  • Velocity: 1020 fps from 5-inch 1911 pistol

SPEAKING LIKE A CAPTAIN OF INDUSTRY WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT

Posted on Friday, 28 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

Ladies and Gentlemen, Friday is once more upon us and it’s time for our weekly shoot-the-shit topic. If you are anything like me, by now you are completely fed-up with the Presidential campaign. My disenchantment comes from a realization that a career politician, with as much baggage as Hillary Clinton has, can run as a Democrat for the highest office in the land. However, rather than surrendering to depression, excessive drinking or eating exceptionally gassy foods until Nov 8th, we’d like to have a little fun with you all. So, for this week’s shoot-the-shit we are going to share some techniques that will help you sound like a captain of industry when in reality you are clueless. As with all shoot-the-shits, we love your participation and remember that you can make any unsupported statement, use profanity, insult anyone you wish or change the subject completely.

Let me begin by convincing you not to allow academic affiliation impress you. A Harvard, Yale, Columbia or Chicago graduate has the same probability of being a moron as a Pepperdine graduate, or any other institute of higher learning. Quite often, parental donations to Ivy League Schools are sufficient to secure the acceptance of their offspring. So don’t get all “farklempt” when confronted by one of these graduates. Using the techniques that follow, we’ll help you sound like a captain of industry when you don’t know what your talking about.

To begin, you need to learn a few phrases and words.

  • franchise
  • stakeholders
  • key players
  • leverage
  • the data does not correlate
  • vision
  • leverage
  • value proposition
  • those numbers don’t add up
  • experience
  • lackluster
  • accordingly
  • position

With just a few of these words and phrases you can redirect any attempt to expose you as an idiot or steer you into discussing specifics you know nothing about. In the video below, watch former New Mexico Governor get trapped by an MSNBC host looking to shift him into specifics.

Here’s is how Gary should have responded…

Aleppo is a lackluster experience. There is no value proposition and the numbers simply don’t add up. Aleppo is not consistent with my vision for this great franchise we call the United States of America. My responsibility is to our American stakeholders but I will leverage my key players to correlate all of the available data on Aleppo and I will position us accordingly.

The MSNBC host would have immediately changed the subject to Donald Trump’s cuchi grabbing!

We’re 12 days away from the most important election in modern U.S. History. Get to the polls and vote Trump / Pence for America!

Have a great weekend and as always spend some quality time with your buds and family. If the spirit moves you, let us hear from you.

IWI US Galil ACE Rifle in .308 Now Shipping

Posted on Monday, 24 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

Harrisburg, Pa. (October 2016) – IWI US, Inc., a subsidiary of Israel Weapon Industries (IWI) Ltd., is pleased to announce that the new Galil ACE Rifle  in 7.62 NATO (7.62x51mm/.308 Win) is now shipping to distributors everywhere.

“The 7.62 NATO (7.62x51mm/.308 Win) is an extremely accurate cartridge with a lot of knock-down power and penetration. It’s a fantastic round for everything from big game hunting to long-distance shooting. It’s a cartridge that is worthy of the Galil ACE and we know gun enthusiasts everywhere are going to be excited to get their hands on this just in time for hunting season,” said Michael Kassnar, vice president of sales and marketing for IWI US.

Many improvements have been made since the original Galil was first developed. Weight has been reduced due to the use of high-impact polymers. Reliability has been improved by sealing the internal mechanism with a reciprocating charging handle cover, adding additional protection from sand and dirt. A full-length 2-piece Picatinny top rail has been added and a tri-rail has found its way under the plastic foregrip. Plus, slide on/slide off rail covers with pressure switch access have been incorporated. The Galil now has a folding adjustable stock with a 2-position removable cheek comb. The charging handle was moved to the left side of the receiver and the magazine release was made ambidextrous so that a shooter could change magazines without having to take the gun off target. The Galil ACE geometry was modified so that it could accept standard SR25 style PMAGs. It features a trigger borrowed from the Galil sniper rifle and an improved gas tube that decreases barrel vibration and increases accuracy. The barrel is chrome lined and cold hammer forged.

EXPLOITING CAPT. HUMAYUN KHAN

Posted on Friday, 21 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

There are very few things that piss me off more than someone capitalizing on battlefield gallantry for political gain and this Clinton ad hit my tilt override. So here’s what I’d like to say to Mr. Khizr Khan.

Mr. Khan, I’ve spent 12 years in military service. In that 12 year period I’ve had the opportunity to interact with a great many officers. Your son’s gallantry was exemplary; it honors him and was in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Army. However, that gallantry was his and not yours to hijack for political gain. I can assure you that as God has him in heaven, he is deeply disappointed with you.

Your speech at the DNC was geared to intentionally distort Mr. Trump’s comments, as awkward as they were, and suggests that Donald Trump’s comments were geared  to discriminate against all Muslims. The reality is that most of the industrialized world, Muslim countries included, are at peril from Radical Islamic Terrorism. If you are honest enough to accept that precept, then it should make sense that as a country we exercise extreme caution when admitting individuals from areas of the world  that expose the country to higher risks. That caution benefits you, all Muslims Americans, as well as other members of our society.

Now, I know that you like waving your copy of the Constitution and positioning yourself as an experts but you neglected some very important points.

First, there is no Constitutional requirement that any religious or ethnic group be admitted into the country.

Second, as Commander In Chief, it places an immense burden on the office holder to uphold the laws of the land, provide for national security and protect the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. This mandate means that if law enforcement and intelligence sources identify specific groups as presenting a higher risk to national security, then a President is required to act accordingly.

So, please stop using your son to your benefit or someone else’s political gain. The best way to honor your son’s gallantry and bravery is for you to conduct yourself accordingly.

Fallout Ammunition Now Using Shell Shock Technologies’ NAS3Casings

Posted on Friday, 21 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub


b410cec6-3d6d-4326-b64e-7c45207ce9c5.pngWestport, Conn. (October 2016) – Shell Shock Technologies, LLC., an early-stage technology and manufacturing company focused on developing innovative case technologies for the ammunition industry, announces that Fallout Ammunition’s 9mm rounds are now available with Shell Shock’s revolutionary NAS3casings.

“We discovered Shell Shock during our continued search to find the best components for Fallout’s ammunition line. The technology was intriguing. Though we were skeptical about deviating from traditional brass cartridge casings, we ordered a few test pieces to load up and take to the range. As we put these rounds through the paces we noticed that our groupings were tighter, our guns were lighter and even the sounds of the discharging cartridges were more satisfying,” commented Darren Johnson, Fallout Ammunition.

Johnson continued, “using our chronograph substantiated Shell Shock’s claims as the tested rounds showed a much more consistent velocity versus standard brass casings. Due to our positive testing experience, we decided to use Shell Shock’s casings exclusively for our new product line. Since using Shell Shock cases, we have had many compliments about how well these rounds fire and many of our customers have told us that they have also become believers in the superiority of Shell Shock’s case technology.”

“We’re excited to partner with Fallout Ammunition. They do a great job of delivering exactly what the shooting industry needs: excellent ammunition at competitive prices. Their commitment to quality is outstanding,” remarked Craig Knight, CEO of Shell Shock Technologies.

NAS3 Technology:

NAS3 alloy cases are 50 percent lighter than brass cases offering greater lubricity and will not abrade, clog, foul, wear-out or damage breach and ejector mechanisms. The cases offer greater corrosion resistance, tensile strength (2x stronger) and elasticity than brass. NAS3 cases will not split, chip, crack or grow (stretch) and are fully-reloadable with S3 reloading dies. NAS3 cases have been tested successfully with pressures over 70k psi. NAS3 cases eject cool to-the-touch and can be picked up with a magnet. The head can be colored for branding purposes and easy load identification.

NAS3 is “Best in Class” for maintaining consistent velocity between rounds. In an independent test performed by H.P. White Laboratory (a major munitions testing facility), rounds fired using NAS3 cases achieved a velocity standard deviation of 0.93 fps (124 grain FMJ bullet, 4.2 grains Titegroup powder, 10 rounds, extreme variation 3fps).

Loaded Fallout Ammunition rounds featuring Shell Shock’s cases can be purchased here. Pricing details are below:

 9mm 115gr FMJ (New Alu/Nickel 2 Piece Casing):
     9mm 124gr FMJ (New Alu/Nickel 2 Piece Casing):
$24/100 rds.
$230/1000 rds.
$26/100 rds.
$250/1000 rds.

What The Hell Is Happening In The Philippines?

Posted on Friday, 21 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

Image result for philippine mapIt It’s Friday and time for our weekly shoot-the-shit. We’ve been busy doing a little clean up after Hurricane Matthew rolled in and are just now catching up, so we apologize for the conspicuous absence of last Friday’s shoot-the-shit topic.

For readers new to the site a shoot-the-shit is an unstructured dialogue where we present what we believe to be interesting topics that aren’t necessarily consistent with the blog’s central theme.  Readers are encouraged to participate by making any unsupported claim or statement, use uncensored profanity, insult anyone you wish or change the subject all together. We don’t charge for this opportunity, and unlike some jackass who studied psychology so he or she could better understand themselves, our approach will always leave you knowing something you never knew before.

Readers there is so much crap going on that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to broach an interesting topic. The press, more specifically the New York Times and Washington Post have degraded their standing from press to propagandists for the Clinton Campaign. I’ll leave that thought by encouraging all of you to get out the #GUNVOTE.

To give you an idea of just how bad the press is, how many of you know about what is happening in the Philippines?

The Philippines and the United States have been great allies  since the Spanish American War. We collectively defeated the Japanese in World War II, they were a major asset during Vietnam and more recently in our Global War on Terror. Filipinos are hardworking, decent, family oriented and all around wonderful fun loving men and women. The strategic importance of the Philippines to the United States can not be underestimated. However, that relationship is on the brink of collapse. Recently President Rodrigo Duterte announced his “separation” from the United States stating he had patched things up with China and the two have agreed to resolve their South China Sea dispute. His comments were made during a visit to Beijing, where he is visiting with at least 200 business people.

“In this venue, your honours, in this venue, I announce my separation from the United States,” Duterte told Chinese and Philippine business people, to applause, at a forum in the Great Hall of the People attended by Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli.

“Both in military, not maybe social, but economics also. America has lost.”

He continued…

“I’ve realigned myself in your ideological flow and maybe I will also go to Russia to talk to (President Vladimir) Putin and tell him that there are three of us against the world – China, Philippines and Russia. It’s the only way,” Duterte told his Beijing audience.

The writing is on the wall in both the Middle East and Asia Pacific and we need to get our act together tightly and swiftly.

We hope you had a great week. Be safe and get some quality time with your buds and family it is perishable.

Be safe and have a great weekend and let us hear from you.

UZBECK MILITANTS TRYING TO GET SYRIAN GOVERNMENT SNIPER TO EXPOSE HIS POSITION

Posted on Friday, 14 October, 2016 by twobirdsflyingpub

These guys were having a little too much fun. If they didn’t have that sniper position identified within the third or fourth shot there’s a very good chance they ended up on the receiving end of a Syrian airstrike. This footage is from the early stages of the Syrian Civil War.
