I am not a known nor influential actor — there’s A-list Actors and B-List actors…well, I’m a Z-list actor — an unknown with several film credits, but nothing to brag about, and ~20-some-odd television commercials (mainly locals and one national). As of November 2018, I started my career as a full-time actor based out of Los…

Alfonso Faustino: Actor: Phase II
BLUF: Before heading to Los Angeles to pursue my acting career, I wanted to accomplish the following goals: obtain a reputable commercial and theatrical agent, obtain a reputable manager, get acting reel-clips, get new head-shots, execute scene-study processes, update my website, gain membership with SAG-AFTRA, and obtain an audition coach. After achieving these goals, I would…
Alfonso Faustino: Benefits Of Dry-fire, Range, & Learning From Legitimate Firearm SME
(Sidebar: I am not an SME with firearms — I am a student. The reason I drafted this BLOG is to show you my shooting experiences and progress. Until otherwise proven, the information in this BLOG is my OWN reality and truth as a shooter — this STUFF works for me. If you find something…
Alfonso Faustino: Be selective with your SME
The Internet has brought about lots of SME (Subject Matter Experts). Because the Internet is easily accessible, it has become the speaking platform for people without voices — a place to voice their thoughts on all kinds of subjects for free and without restrictions to do so. Like you, the Internet has been my resource…

If you’re looking for a HAM hand-held transceiver (HT), the Ailunce HD1 GPS is the way to go.

Alfonso Faustino: Motorola XTS 5000 Transceivers Model III and Model II
I really enjoy these two Motorola XTS 5000s: Model III and Model II (pictured above). I use them to listen to law enforcement officers and fire fighters in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York. Wouldn’t it be less expensive to just purchase a scanner? The answer is, “yes.” A scanner would be less expensive…
Alfonso Faustino (K6ASF): Maxpedition Falcon III
I dig bags — I have so many of them — yeah, it’s a fetish of mine, and I’ve put them all to the test — from EDC to bug-out survival bags, I’ve deployed them on land, sea, and air excursions. Based upon my experiences thus far, I must say, unequivocally, the Maxpedition Falcon III…
Alfonso Faustino: Used Motorola Transceivers: eBay: SnarlingRabidDog5150: TalkWave Communications
Generally speaking, I don’t trust sellers on eBay; hence, I seldom make purchases on eBay — I prefer Amazon. In my opinion, eBay is a cesspool and a petrie dish of scammers and products of questionable origin, make, and quality –ESPECIALLY, sellers that write, “No refunds due to people swapping out parts” in their product…
Alfonso Faustino: Couples Therapist: Jessica Harvey, MFT
I have never been to a therapist as an individual; because, thanks for my father, he gave me the mental tools to figure stuff on my own; and, he gave my strong self-esteem and strong PMA (Positive Mental Attitude); hence, as a result of my father and the Trinity, I am proud to claim as…
Alfonso Faustino: San Francisco Police Department: Auxiliary Law Enforcement Response Team
After extensive background checks, references, and training, I am finally part of the San Francsico Department team and brotherhood. This is one of my most proudest accomplishments; because, I support the San Francisco Police Department and all law enforcers — regardless of the media negative spins on LEOs (Law Enforcement Officers), they can do no…
