Editor’s Introductory Note: I’ve had many e-mailed questions about buying, transporting, and storing gasoline and diesel fuel in recent days. I also had a question about the available blends of gasoline. So, I thought it would be apropos to re-post a few fuel-related articles from SurvivalBlog’s deep archives.  This article dates back 16 years, to April, 2010. It was written by an anonymous reader in the fuel refining industry. Background Fuel supplies are essential for many aspects of modern society. Complex supply chains rely on hydrocarbon-fueled trucks, trains, and planes to deliver food and other supplies in near real-time. Natural…

On March 13, 1639 Cambridge New College, Massachusetts was renamed Harvard in honor of clergyman John Harvard. The College was founded as a Christian institution. All students were expected to be proficient in Latin before acceptance into the college. Scripture reading and prayer gatherings were held twice each day, for all students.  Harvard College was founded with the motto: “All for the Glory of Christ.” It was changed to “Truth for Christ and the Church” in 1836. But the words “for Christ and the Church” were dropped from the motto in 1880, leaving the now familiar motto: Truth. (Veritas.) Pictured…

Carbon Fiber: A Quick Material Science Detour Carbon fiber starts life as thin strands of carbon filaments, each about 5 to 10 micrometers in diameter. For reference, that’s roughly a tenth the width of a human hair. These filaments are woven into a fabric and then bonded with an epoxy resin to create a composite material. The result is something remarkable. Carbon fiber composite offers tensile strength in the range of 3,500 to 7,000 megapascals. Steel, by comparison, typically ranges from 400 to 1,200 MPa. Even high-strength steel alloys only reach about 2,000 to 2,600 MPa. So carbon fiber can…

The U.S. Army has awarded O.F. Mossberg & Sons a contract for approximately $11.6 million dollars to supply the U.S. Army with additional Mossberg 590A1 pump-action shotguns. “Mossberg is honored to receive an additional contract from the U.S. Department of Defense for the battle-proven 590A1,” said John MacLellan, Mossberg’s vice president of Sales and Marketing. “This award reflects our long commitment to supplying rugged, mission-capable firearms,” added MacLellan. “[It also] reinforces our pledge to provide timely solutions that support the effectiveness of U.S. service members.” First adopted by multiple branches of the U.S. Military in 1987, the Mossberg 590 met…

Every year at SHOT Show, Canik always showcases a new product spotlight. For the last three years, I’ve ended up reviewing these guns for NRA Media. In 2023, it was the all-steel Canik Rival-S. In 2024, it was the Canik TTI Combat. This year, the company introduced the Canik Mete MC9 Prime, a large-but-slim carry pistol that lies in the same peer group as other models like the Glock 48, SIG Sauer P365 X-Macro, IWI Masada Slim Elite and Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro. In addition to being Canik’s premium carry-gun offering, the Mete MC9 Prime also holds the distinction of…

Most hunters are not familiar with javelina, a unique game animal often referred to as “Collared Peccary” by the same people who say “Cowz Deer.” This native pig-like critter thrives in the dusty Mexican borderlands, where it is an iconic symbol of the American Southwest and Mexico.Unfortunately, javelina are sometimes considered more of a nuisance than a coveted big game animal worthy of pursuit. Don’t let these misconceptions stand in the way of a good time. If you’re contemplating a javelina hunt, here are a few things you should know before hitting the desert.Biology Basics for Better HuntingUnderstanding javelina biology…

Hunting rifle cartridges come in waves. When my grandfather got out of the Army in the 1950s, military cartridges like .30-06 and 8mm Mauser dominated the woods. World War II and Korean War veterans knew firsthand about their potential, and there were plenty of cheap surplus sporter rifles on the market.Next came the magnum craze of the mid-20th century. Hunters wanted big cartridges that shot flat and hit hard. This reached its peak in the 1970s, when hunters started to remember how much less it hurt to shoot a .270 Winchester than a .338 Winchester Magnum, but continued somewhat into…
