Click to read ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Introducing a brand new book on the subject of preparedness;  Survivalist Family by Joe Fox.  Unlike others, the focus of this book is on your family and home.  It's all about how to get your home-life (and the people in it) in order......in case of emergency.  This is a very well laid out book that covers all the bases.  It's very well balanced for a family and is exactly what a person needs if they want to know how to get ready.  It isn't about a few links, it's about the whole chain.  Often, in the world of survival and/or preparedness, only certain facets are covered.  This book sheds light on some of the glaring gaps.  In addition, if you've ever wondered how to bring your loved ones up to speed so you are all on the same page, this is the book for you.  Highly recommended and makes a great giftClick on the photo to read about this highly accomplished author.  Get yours today.....the first 15 get a signed copy!

Gunzilla.jpg

Wow!  You'll say it too!!  Gunzilla™ BC-10 is a patent pending gun cleaning formula which was developed for the military, made from natural based products.

Gunzilla™ can be used on everything from small handguns to 16” wide cannons. Gunzilla™ is a one step cleaner designed to clean, lubricate, and protect, all in one formula.   

Gunzilla™ removes rust, lead, copper, plastic, carbon and even cleans corrosive ammo. It performs this quickly with a natural-base chemical which is faster, more effective, and safer than water based formulas or petroleum based solvents.

Gunzilla™ can be used on all smokeless and black powder guns, and eliminates the need to use soap and water when cleaning black powder guns.  It also eliminates oiling after cleaning.  IT'S THAT GOOD!!  To read more, click on the photo.  You'll be very glad you did!

Ferroandmagnesium.JPG
Shown with magnesium rod, sold separately.

Your core temperature is tantamount to your very survival.  Death can occur in hours, without some help against the heat stealing elements.  One of your best friends beside adequate clothing and shelter is fire.  S.S.I.G. is now offering 3/8" X 4" long ferro rods for creating hot sparks for fire.  Even if you have a lighter, matches, fire piston and/or bow drill, this little item is worth bringing along.....just in case.  At only 2 ounces, you've got a healthy insurance policy against all odds.

Along with the ferro rods, we're proud to be offering magnesium rods as well.  They are a great accompaniment to go along with the ferro rods.  Regardless of any fondness for petroleum jelly cotton balls, the possibility of an unexpended stay and a finite supply in less than hospitable elements exists.  Magnesium rods are easily scraped, the shavings ignited and burn very hot.  They have no shelf life and water is a non-issue with them.  Their scrapings are very light, which means taking a little care.....but then, so does a small spark and a small nest with which one desires to build a fire.  You can never have too much in your corner when it comes to the elements.  In a pinch, these could be just the ticket you're looking for.  The mag rods come with a lanyard hole.

Sooner or later, your focus has to shift to your drinking water.  That's where The Frontier Pro filtration system by Aquamira buries the competition.  The Frontier Pro is a small, compact, easy to use, filter that can compete with the “big boys.”  Here's the ultimate in ultra-light, compact portable filtration that fits in the palm of your hand.  

Connect to almost anything, using the universal connectivity system.  The Frontier Pro filter will connect directly to any water bottle with a 28mm opening such as a Platypus® or standard spring water bottle.  Using the tube connection feature you can connect to the drink tube of your hydration system, or drink from any open container or water source.  Since you drink directly from the unit there is no chance of confusing inlet and outlet tubes resulting in possible cross contamination.  The Frontier Pro can also be set up in a “gravity flow” mode to filter water unattended while you pursue more enjoyable uses of your valuable outdoor time. 

Since Miraguard suppresses the growth of bacteria, algae, fungus, mold and mildew in the filter media, you can use the Frontier Pro on multiple outings without worrying about nasty things growing in the filter between uses. The patented Bite Me valve provides drip free easy drinking and the integrated cap and Cap Strap™ keeps the drinking end clean and contamination free.  MADE IN THE U.S.A. 

Hotwatertankadaptor.jpg

You ought to pick up a hot water tank adapter while you're at it!  Virtually every home has water stored in the water heater that can be used in the event of an emergency. The difficult part is getting the water out of the heater tank when the water pressure is off. Water can be collected from the drain valve, but it must be filtered to remove harmful sediments that have built up in the water heater before it can be consumed .

This ingenious device will turn your Frontier Pro Water Filter into a water heater filter. Simply attach your Frontier Pro filter to the water heater drain valve to provide safe clean water for you family in the event of an emergency.  Also MADE IN U.S.A.
