Carbines, Shotguns, Rifles, and The New Prepper, Part Two, Contributed by Cameron Green of GAPPNJ.COM
This is the second installment in a series of papers to educate the new prepper about what weapons they should have on hand. I’m approaching this from a SHTF scenario, and while I’m not advocating using any firearm in an offensive manner, I stress that being able to use one to defend yourself is imperative… […]
September is National Preparedness Month
Our government has designated September as “National Preparedness Month“. This contrasts with the FBI’s profiling preppers as potential terrorists. I imagine the message is “be prepared”, but don’t be too prepared.

Everything you do is either useful camouflage or dangerous attraction, from the cloths you wear, the car you drive and how you gather and store […]
CCW Class with GAPPNJ and Cameron Green
I arrived early to the location where GAPP was holding the Utah and Florida CCW course, or at least I thought I was going to be early. It was 30 minutes before the class was to begin, and there were already a half dozen people waiting outside the front door to gain admission to the building […]
Interest in CCW Classes in NJ, NY, or PA? An Interview with Cameron Green
Cameron Green is a local instructor for personal protection. One of his services is CCW training for “non-resident” Florida and Utah CCW’s. I will be taking a Florida CCW course in the spring by Cameron. In the process of discussion, I asked him if he might care to be interviewed about why someone might want […]
Wow, What a Week. A few Updates, a Passed Up Savage, and More…
