I’ve narrowed down what I’m looking for in a lever action rifle legal in every state as well as Canada 

A 45 Colt lever action rifle with a 17.4 inch barrel loaded with Garrett 405grain hammer head ammo hits harder than the original black powder 45/70 out of the Springfield carbine 😳

Propane vs Kerosene heater for emergency prep

Hey, got a question about emergency heating for my house. So here's the deal, my house is all electric unfortunately. The last ice storm blindsided us and I'm trying to get ready just in case it gets ugly this year. Small house, 1500 square feet. Which would be better to go with, a kerosene heater which supposedly can heat a 1000 square foot area, or a propane BIGBuddy heater which only does 450? May only be used once every who knows when if we were to have a power failure in an ice storm which doesn't happen often here. I know the right answer seems to be the kerosene heater for the space considered. Anyone have experience with either of these? It would cost more to get going with the propane heater because I'd also have to buy a propane bottle and a hose. Really seems like the kerosene would be the better deal, except I'm afraid it will be an issue with the fuel smell inside the house?

So, will the next chief do battle for the 2nd Amendment? …or will they continue to line their own pockets and run from the real fights?
