Have returned to writing “The History of World War III” and it has progressed past 23K words. This story is coming along nicely as the research is getting easier, somehow. Probably just familiarity with the subject and the locations of relevant information. Book Two in the Pilgrim’s Trail “Casualties of War” is in the final…

The 6.5 Kurz by Floyd Getchell Not another AR-15 Round! Why would anyone design another AR-15 round? The answer is obvious to some and will be obvious to you by the end of this article. 6.5 Kruz has been designed for several reasons; First, the cartridge is designed to overcome the feeding and extraction issues…

BushRangerOverland #1 is under construction. It is an Outback Model Truck Insert for a Ford F-250/350 8′ Bed. It is being built in a pickup bead that my son Marcus began converting in to a trailer and I completed. The base of the frame is laid out with 2″ angle iron. The roof at full…

Writing Been writing a lot lately, it just hits you. Been really happy and that helps with the writing process. “The History of World War III” made its way to the forefront as I received some help on some silly issues involving German Ammunition crates and a 1945 map of southern Germany, as well as…

As Promised, I revealed my huge discovery at the CoKoCon on Sunday in Phoenix, Arizona and it seemed to be somewhat anticlimactic.

While the second Pilgrim’s Trail novel ‘Casualties of War’ still lacks cover art for paperback publication and is only available on Kindle, the third novel in the series, ‘Devil’s Ride’ nears completion. 6.5 Kurz development continues with an AK Rifle now ready for testing and 6.5kurz.com has been acquired as a domain name so that…

Have not updated my writing in quite some time but I have been writing. Losing several works was VERY depressing and it took quite a bit of willpower to dive back in and start rewriting these works. Not saying that some of them didn’t need to be rewritten anyway. World War III – 1945 was…

Questions about the 6.5 Kurz accuracy have been asked and I was able to get to the range and answer these. I have never had questions about the accuracy of the round as I purposely designed the cartridge to be accurate using 6.5 mm bullet which has always been accurate as well as making the…
