    Default Book for sale

    So I was at Barnes and Noble getting a fantasy football magazine in preparation of the upcoming draft when I saw this book, "The ultimate guide to US Army survival skills, tactics, and techniques". They had four left and I bought them all. It's almost 3 inches thick and absolutely filled to the brim with some great info. I flipped through and read the chapter about taking out a sentry and I was impressed. I'm keeping one for myself and I want to sell the other 3. The books were in the clearance and I have a membership so I saved a little money. Original price was around $25. I will sell at my cost, plus shipping to you. Not sure about what shipping will cost, its a big and heavy book, so might be a little spendy. Anything you want to know, just ask and I will do my best to answer.

    I'll get right on that, smartguy. Not. I apologize, but I'm using my cell and I'm somewhat limited in my capabilities. Perhaps someone else could fix it? Wink wink.

    Looks big enough to cause brain trauma when applied manually.

    Ooh, excellent selling point, book can be used as a weapon when all else fails. It may also shield against small caliber firearms, but I'm NOT liable if it doesn't.

    I think I'll have to take you up on one of these catfish.

    Books are always good, especially technical books! It's a little more expensive than the books I usually get ($5 or less ) but, it is new.

    As for shipping I think you can probably fit one in a Flat Rate envelope. I'd be surprised if you couldn't.

    If you want to send me an IM with a total and a PayPal address, I'll send you a payment.

    Only 2 copies of the survival/weapon/bullet stopping book left. $20, that includes shipping to anywhere in the continental USA.

    Got my copy from catfish.

    Looks like I could put this thing in my plate carrier and substitute it for one of my Level IV plates!

    Seriously though, I haven't had a chance to dig deep into it but it looks like $20 is a good value for this book. Lots of information in there.

    You got it Phil, I will do it tomorrow. I've looked through the book a little more, been very busy lately, lots of info.

    Ryan, glad you got it so soon, I was expecting maybe Wednesday at the earliest so that's cool.

    Rick, I'm charging a 100% surcharge only to old, beer drinking, old school nerds from Colorado. You will like the large size, easier for your old eyes to see.
