Alright, so I won't go too much into it, but as I'm sure you've all noticed, there is a distinct lack of competent organizations and combat readiness in the left. While it may just be a stereotype, the idea of the skinny and weak anarchist can sum up most of the left that wishes to engage in direct action, mostly by using outdated manuals and romanticized ideas of war. As such, I had, a few years ago, taken it upon myself to release training videos to some of you in order to get you up to speed on the basics of the basics. That, unfortunately, seems to have fallen through on the account of my job, which often has me traveling and doing other things that I won't go into because they are totally uninteresting and unrelated to the topic at hand. As such, we will go into a few key steps you should be taking in order to prepare yourself for introductory training, should it ever be offered to you. Yes, you read that correctly, you must train yourself to be trained. You do not have the luxury of being part of an organized military force, though I would not critique you if that is the route you are wanting to take, as it would be hypocritical. I will limit the topic to individual training, equipment, and self-selection because the whole of military science is a broad topic that is not wholly known by any one individual. Please understand this so that my limitations do not become a hindrance to your growth as a potential combat soldier. Seek training from experienced individuals, even if you have to hide your power level. Consider me just another voice on the internet. I do not intend to use credentials or authority on the subject to get you to do as I say, but I would appreciate it if you thought about a few things. Thank you for reading.

AR's are cheaper in the US, they will have parts and training compatibility with most other people, furthermore, they are more ergonomic(safety, bolt, ease of mounting optics and lights) and ballistically superior (hence everyone moving over to a 5.56-like cartridge from EU to China).
The AR-15 is the people's weapon of the United States. You will get an AR like everyone else and you will fall in line.
>>2349>Should I get a concealed carry permit in my state? Essentially they want fingerprints and Id and whatnot, so I'd be handing all that info over to the feds.As you said, you already have a driver's license. Get a concealed carry permit, and use it! Get something compact, Glock 19 or smaller, and actually carry it around with you.
Nothing makes me more mad than guys with a concealed carry permit that just leave their guns at home.
Uhh so I was watching some Iraq firefights and the army was using 50 cal and just destroying the shit out of wherever fighters were positioned.
They werent even aiming really, just blasting 50 cal bullets through everything. How the fuck does one survive this shit or even fight back? The only thing I can think of doing would be run like a bitch to a new location and hope you dont get obliterated

Never engage unless you can win, never engage on your opponents terms, etc.
>>2386They're a bit of a meme but if you can get'em go for it or like
>>2387 said. I got a pair of waxi boots in combat boot length and they're great.
>>2775Yes. Joining later makes you less susceptible to drinking the kool aid and you can focus more on getting the most out of training. You'll find good people but you'll also find shitty people like any other job.
Military training promotes cohesion, you'll get close to people and learn how to deal with challenges that you otherwise won't face in other forms of LARP.
>>2257This is ok advice but not great, I want to make note of the gulf wars as one gap frequently noted in the Americans arsenal was the 500-1 mile range
American assault rifles where incapable of putting effective fire on targets in that range, but you know what wasn't? Bolt action rifles used by the Taliban.
A common tactic of the Taliban as such was to just pitch up snipers in mountains and have them take pot shots at people within that ranging then fucking run, rinse repeat.
Know your enemy
I've heard from some people that "strikeball/paintball helps you train for real combat".
It doesn't. If you don't believe a random anon on the internet, believe actual combat vets.
To translate their quote:
>Neither airsoft nor games help you complete a combat mission in reality. I will say more, on the contrary, they do harm. When airsoft players come, you can see them. You can even tell by their manner of entering a shelter or a room. A person who has never played airsoft, he is very careful, while an airsoft player flies in right away.Why is this bad? Because if you're dashing around on a battle-field, not only does the rapid movement get attention from any surveillance, but it runs the risk of hitting mines or trip-wire traps or any other number of fucked shit you'd otherwise be able to avoid if you're slow and careful.

Your experience is very atypical to be honest.
>>5042 Did you wear thick clothing?
>>5044These don't really simulate what a real claymore is like however, same problem as what
>>5046 describes, you don't feel what is closer to real conditions, so you get used to it, and it's so much worse after. In the soviet army they had "Взрыв Пакеты" made for combat exercises, absolutely harmless but with a bang and force that simulated real mines and grenades, scaring the shit outta you. It made you look underfoot for sure. Russian army may still do this but I'm not sure at this point.
>>5047Yeah I the claymores are kind of lame. Hard to launch the bbs at velocity from an inch of space.
>made for combat exercises, absolutely harmless but with a bang and force that simulated real mines and grenades, scaring the shit outta you.That's a good idea. I was just thinking they need a mechanism that makes loud bangs when you fire the gun too.
