I'm not sure this qualifies as self-defense equipment, but this is being shipped to me today - 37 months after it was paid for:

The way the weather has been going, if it gets here in time you may be able to use it on a polar bear🥶

Mack Bolan in the Executioner pulp novels called his "Big Thunder", but I don't name mine.

I remember when you first posted about ordering it on the other forum. I have to admit to wondering if it would ever materialize. Congrats! That is one very cool new toy. I would love to have one of those. We will need pictures of it blasting concrete blocks into gravel.

You probably mentioned it on the other forum but its been so long since you ordered this, are you planning on cutting down .308 based brass to reload?

I have Starline brass but also have the dies/reamer to make the brass from 270, 308, etc cases if I need to - I've made some but it's rather tedious.

Mack had to machine his own brass. ;)
