Glen is an Attorney turned Author. During his time serving in a governmental roll, Glen realized, one day when noticing how fragile the United States supply chain is, that he needed to get better prepared for an inevitable collapse. We talk about Glen's "299 Days" book series, his own personal life-and-death obstacles he has faced over the past 2 years that have made his resolve to be prepared even more a priority. The 299 Days ten-book novel series written by Glen Tate, is a about the collapse of the United States.  The main character, Grant Matson, has a job that allows him to see what's wrong with government. He realizes he needs to prepare for what's coming and he does so.  His wife, Lisa, is reluctant to prepare because she thinks things are just fine.  When the civil unrest and political collapse hit in a dramatic way, it is undeniable that they need to leave their Olympia, Washington home and head to their cabin. Out at the cabin, a collection of amazing people assemble. They create their own community. There are no zombies or cannibalism; 299 Days describes a much more likely partial collapse scenario.

https://chtbl.com/track/118312/traffic.libsyn.com/talkinglead/akk_s4_ep2_vz58_final.mp3 This episode of the Talking Lead AK Korner is presented by Century Arms. Our topic is the Czechoslovakian vz. 58 (some times wrongly called the "CZ-58" as CZ did manufacture them) also known as the 7,62 mm samopal vzor 58 ("7.62mm submachine gun model 1958"). Joining Lefty this episode are guests: Paul Markel, Student Of The Gun; Curtis Halstrom, VSO Gun Channel; Andrew Breneman, Century Arms. Although the vz-58 externally looks very similar to the AK-47, it is it's own rifle and is nothing like the AK-47. Internally the vz-58 has a substantially different design that is based on a short-stroke gas piston. In fact, internally the vz-58 rifle has more in common with the Walther P38, Beretta 92, Brens, and Glocks than it does with an AK-47. No parts between the two rifles are interchangeable, not even the magazine. The vz-58 is smaller than the AK-47, the barrel (in non-US imported versions) is shorter and the width is narrower. The original furniture was made from a wood and Bakelite mixture known affectionately as "beaver-barf". Another feature the vz-58 has that the AK-47 does not is it's bolt hold open operation which allows the weapon to be reloaded from the top with striper clips without having to remove the magazine.
