Re: Fortifiying Your Bus Against Intruders Or Attack?

Today I drove the bus 104 miles on 11.5 gls of gas. 9 mpg! Plenty of power from IHC sd240 six and 6.16 gears. Should get a little better when I replace the rears with 9 x 20 tires. Has 7.50s on it now. 9s are 4.5" taller. Should equate to 5.70 gears and much tougher tires. Also got a chance to fire a box of .38s from my new Traditions [Pietta] case hardened Single Action Army in .357/.38. It is an awesome piece. Grips are walnut. 7.5" barrel. I also got a new black leather Meana holster and cartridge belt. I can open carry in Nebraska. A cowboy rig like this is pretty cool, I've always wanted one, but they are kind of bulky and sort of clumsy to every day carry. I nearly always have my Ruger LCP on me. Don't let anyone tell you .380 acp is not a powerful round. Stay away from losers and don't be camped in an urban Walmart parking lot when the SHTF.

Or maybe just put a "HELP WANTED HARD WORKERS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY!" sign in your bus window. That will repel most urban zombies.
