Right now, patriots and 2nd amendment supporters are cheering the fact that the ATF recalled their proposed ban on green tip M855 AR-15 ammunition. However, I came across a VERY interesting article this morning about a Supreme Court Ruling which may be directly linked to the reason the ATF stopped their pursuit of the ban. Is […]
What gear comes to mind when you think of a bug out bag? I would argue that the majority of us relate the term bug out bag to outdoor survival gear: shelter, water purification, fire making, bushcraft, etc. However, what about survival gear that can be applied strictly to an urban setting?

A couple of years ago, I used to own a Jeep Wrangler which was my pride and joy. I outfitted the vehicle with a 4″ lift, 33″ tires and all the bells and whistles. The last item which I wanted was a nice winch. Winches are great tools to get your vehicle unstuck, get other […]
If SHTF and it ever comes down to defending your property, you need to give yourself advanced warning of threats. This can be obtained in a variety of ways: Using radio communications, you can network with other homes in your area and get forewarning of threats.

When I started this website back in June 2014, I had no idea how many people I would reach or how successful it would be. More or less, I started the endeavor as a personal hobby to educate others on current events, self-reliance, and the bushcraft that I had learned throughout my years. I was happy to […]
After coming down with a one / two punch of the cold + flu over the past week, it has given me much thought about how to prepare for medical emergencies in austere conditions. Particularly with the flu, I lost an immense amount of fluid via vomiting & diarrhea. As the “3/3/3” saying goes, water […]
For those of you who are followers of On Point Preparedness, you might have recognized that I haven’t written articles or updated the daily news as of the last couple of days. The reason is that my wife just brought into the world a new baby boy this week and I’m a busy dad of two!! […]
[img cred – crazybridgestudios] In the past year, I’ve watched at least 8 raw & uncensored videos of the Islamic State (ISIS) murdering innocent men, women & children.
