rifle set-up for insurgency effectiveness

what does /k/ think would be an effective set-up for a homeland insurgency. lets say the blue helmets really do show up and our military is in shambles/spread all over the globe. we'd be dealing with bootlicking feds, foreign UN troops possibly loyalist militarized PDs.

i think the guys with scoped rifles and woods experience will be far more effective than guys tricking out ar's with aimpoops and eotrash's. once they realize that after they pull the trigger on their iron sight ak that the opposition will hit the dirt/get in cover, and they cant verify their hits and can no longer see the enemy because they have no magnification. then their only option is to start dumping rounds in the enemies direction (giving their position away) or retreat after 2-3 quick rounds. america isnt the vietnam jungle where firepower will be king. we have massive infrastructure/roadways/interstates/developed areas with long lanes of fire.

as a poverty 20 something year old i got a ruger scout with a leupold 1.5-4 scout scope. i wouldnt feel outgunned if some brazilian UN platoon came operating in my area with their iron sight fal's because id prone out, drop 2-3 and bug out to set a new ambush. meanwhile you guys who spend your time shooting steel at 25 yards will miss your shots and get melted by return fire.

short version: scope your rifles retards, only poverty 2nd world countries dont run magnification. do you even acog?

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

NGfag here, if you're going to be doing some stupid shit please just volunteer at your local armory, or at the very least tell them you're going to be doing stupid shit so they can talk you down and you don't get thrashed on thermals.

At the end of the day, after the weekend warriors jokes and laughs are exhausted, it is kinda the ultimate purpose of the NG to work for and coordinate with the state government, which you are part of as a citizen.

To be honest, at this point, you'd be drafted anyway.

Apparently.

However rather than giving OP the ability to just go "HURR, NO KONTRIBEWSHUN!" I'll say this.

That logic only applies to non-powered sights (think the old scopes from Vietnam and earlier). You get the benefit, without having to fear batteries running out and shit, however you also don't have to have glass for your rifle. Why? Because irons are just fine for firing into a platoon of blue helmeted fucktards standing in the open. Open fire, empty a magazine and run like hell is the best strategy for anyone doing that shit.

Assuming the UN said "fuck America" and didn't get nuked, mostly because of cucks, the only good set up ir rig would be comradery. Really, working together as one mind is what will defeat those fascists.

>the only "real" threat would be our own military, or the FFL/UK/Germany themselves

All if this really is dependant on what was going on before the Insurgency, what led up, and how they perform.

A good kit would be any AR/AK that can accept scavenged ammo and a good PC/CR and a good set of camp or some type of good looking pattern.

there would be no front line troops for the NG to supply assuming the NG defected to join the rebels

Why dies anybody think this? Sure, its a long way, and most places will resort to that. But what about the cities? And the surrounding areas? Farm land and wooded areas would be OK for snipers/DM's...theref be plenty of frontal engagements. Such as Washing DC. They'd come marching in and where would everyone hide? In buildings? To complicated for snipers who are also up against tanks/apc's.

You're an idiot and here's why.

Historically, Germany cannot into logistics. It was true in WWII when they tried to use their Wunder Waffens to overcome logistical shortfalls.

Spoiler Alert: It didn't work. Today, they have rifles that melt and suffer permanent POI shifts after sustained firing. Naval helicopters that don't like salt water, Vietnam era F4 phantoms and 100 operational Leopard II tanks with zero replacement parts.

If you can't do this you need to practice your marksmanship. An acog won't improve this.

Use a longer range cartridge, in which case use an optic with more magnification than an acog.

"The destruction of an entire NVA company over the span of 5 days. Hathcock and corporal John Burke pinned down a fresh company of NVA regulars in what was known as the Elephant valley. Craftily facing amazing but unskilled odds, the two snipers forced the company to sit in place while they slowly decimated the enemy, one by one. Interestingly, few if any of these kills are counted in either snipers' tally."

with a scout rifle id say you can drop 5 or 6 before you get taken out if youre in a good position and have secondary hides. if you want to survive, get a hit or 2 and run.

>>
>>28248954
you obviously have no idea what youre talking about. we're not talking about shooting at a static white piece of paper on a barren range. we're talking about shooting at camouflaged moving targets who dont want to be seen. magnification is used for recon/observation as well as making shots easier at distance.
>>
>>28249158
You realize the majority is combat kills from both sides have nothing to do with rifles right? You realize you'll be fighting people with night vision and thermals right? You realize you'll be fighting people with tanks and air support right? You realize technology, tactics, training, and equipment have advanced since the 70s right?
>>
>>28249185
Except insurgents use caves/tunnels/canopy forests/structures to escape and hide before air support shows up.

What is artillery, what are morters, what are the designated marksman in the platoon you just opened fire on.
Your strategy of killing a few men and running may work a couple times. Then they are going to catch on and a gunship is going to show up at your next "ambush" or that platoon is going to have a strike fighter covering them that will blow you away after you fire your first shot. I'm not saying an insurgency can't be successful but being a one or two man army doing direct engagements is Hollywood bs

I've actually fought in counter insurgency operations.

There is SO much autism going on here. Some of you make sense (and you know who you are) but holy fucking shit.

You think you will just grab your SKS, AK, or AR and go all red dawn on thier asses?
Fuck no. Because even the most incompetent military doesnt just line up in single file for you to effortlessly shoot them.

They will come hunting you. Your house will be watched for 3 weeks by a drone, and then 15 MRAPs full of guys with real hardware will raid it. They WILL expend these kind of resources just to capture a box full of rusty SKS's too. I know they will because I HAVE been on ops like that.

And when some faggoty autsomethought hed get clever and shoot and scoot the gunship would slam him with a hell fire while he ran away. Im not kidding, an entire hellfire for one guy with an AK.

We lost some guys, yeah, but the first airstrike I ever witnessed killed more of them than all of my guys ive seen get hit in my whole career.

Every time they directly engaged us they were either killed, captured, or fled. The closest they came to being effective was IED's and we got pretty fucking good at avoiding those too.

There ARE ways to effectiveley resist occupation/conduct rebellion against a superior force, but I have yet to hear somebody not trained and expierienced in such things ever say anything approaching workable tactics.

You all wanna hear some simple shit that WAS effective against us? I can tell ya. But its the typical dumb boring shit that comprises 90% of war and has nowhere near the visual appeal of going out in a blaze of glory when the hellfire blows you into pieces, but it works.

Naw, that life is behind me. But if you want to tone down the butthurt edgyness for a bit I can give you tips for how to fuck with armed patrols and walk away.

Or atleast tell you how they used to fuck with us and get away with it.

Cuz pissed off edgy faggots like you are the easiest to fight. We just had to use our intel sources to figure out who you knew, fuck with them to get you mad and shooting, then drop a himar or hellfire on your position.
The bonus to it all was that we got to see thier family watch us bait and kill thier hot head daddy/brother/son and say "yall still think its a good idea to fuck with us? No? Well I guess you guys have a funeral to go to. Need help picking up the body parts? We can lend you a body bag, well trashbag really. Theres not enough left to fill a real body bag. Oh sorry, insensitive? (Offer trashbag) dont get mad, get glad!"

And, yes, finding out who somebody is and who they associate with is easy as hell. There is ALWAYS somebody around who will tell you for a few bucks, especially the loud angry types. You can usually get that info for free because those kind of people have a habit of pissing off thier neighbors.
>>
>>28251178
No, its placement.
Think like this: us mil operations.
Recon, planning, logistics and supply, rehearsal, conduct mission, debrief.

So you wanna place an ied. You dont just build one and toss it in a hole.

You watch your enemy. What patterns do they follow, when and where do they tend to get complacent? What kind of gear do they have? How far apart is thier dispersion? What prompts a search? How do they react to a threat?
Simplified scenario:
So lets say that you have been watching this units patrols, and you notice they have a highly agressive response to a threat, you fired a few pot shots and they straight up rushed the house to clear it. You ran away, but now you have something you can use.

So you either obtain an ied, or build one. You place it right under the floor inside the door.
You shoot at thier patrol and run.
They rush the house, and set off the device.

You just fired wildly long enough to trigger the predictable response, but you managed to kill the point man, and severely wound the two guys behind him.

Terrorist: 3
Counter insurgency: 0

Obviously they are going to be looking for patterns too, so you cant just be a one trick pony. You go back to watching and waiting, testing the waters even. Place hoax devices to see how they respond, poke at em a bit with harassing fire to see if they still react the same way or revised thier tactics etc etc.

Dont think of it like "wire everything" or "put em everywhere" think of it like hunting.

Well its actually pretty rare for them to have a sniper with much more skill than "guy who can hit targets beyond 500 meters"

We didnt really run into too many "snipers"
Weve had guys with bolt action rifles take pot shots, we DID lose a guy to a sniper once though.
Shot him through the head, so we unloaded on the area the sniper fired from with a MK 19, wounding him, followed the blood trail to a nearby shack, and kicked him to death.

I can tell you one tactic they used that was frustrating as fuck for us was murder-holes.

Basically theyd cut a 5-7 inch hole in a wall and set up the rifle with the muzzle a few feet from it and shoot through it.
(Building is in a cluster of buildings) so we KNOW the fire is coming from a cluster of buildings 600 meters away, but you are taking fire and cant even see which one specifically that it is coming from.

Cant call in a strike because it would cause civ cas to surrounding structures (something theyd learned from observing us, like I talked aboutstructuresand if we move on the area hes got plenty of time to hide the weapon and run, or just pretend hes a civilian if hes in good enough with the residents for them not to snitch. But like I said, not very many snipers. Probably because any time one actually starts being effective their removal becomes a priority.

>>
>>28251464
You and I have already spoken about this before actually, unless theres another phil ossifers stone on here.

It was discussed a lot in the unit, and we all agreed that at the least we wouldnt fire on american civilians. About 1/3rd would state they would side against the government, another 2/3rds stated that they wouldnt side with anyone unless thier loved ones were hurt, and the side they chose would be against whoever provoked them.

Im in the latter 2/3rds. I wouldnt get involved unless my family was hurt, in which case I would go after whoever did it.
>>
>>28251464
Fuck off
>>
But all of this just brings me to my main point.
Americans tend to view revolution positiveley because thiers turned out alright.
But revolutions have historically been more likley to end up being led by people like chairman mau, castro, or stalin.

Revolutions tend to be made up of angry gun wavers with little real ambition beyond an excuse to shoot people. Who do you think an angry gun waver wants as a leader? (Himself of course!) But barring that, your average revolutionary wants his leader to be an angry gun waver too.

At which point we are just flipping the coin of human nature and hoping a washington or a ghandi is going to pop out instead of another hitler or che guevera.

So if a revolution comes I think I will keep my head and not get caught up in the excitement, atleast long enough for me to determine that im not helping install the next genocidal maniac into power.

Has his head screwed on straight and knows what he's talking about, if you ask me.

There's a few possibilities for how a guerilla war could happen in the US, but most of them and the ones most likely to happen won't be in the form of guerillas resisting the government or another nation, but **guerillas versus guerillas** with the government trying to keep the peace and figure out who's who and what's going on.

>just remember the government is the one that wants to disarm the populace
Which is why all guns are completely banned in the US and everyone is disarmed, right? They're not? Whoops!
You're confusing a minority of politicians and demogogues for "the government". Here's a tip, kid. If you vote, you are the government.
>>
>>28251981
Has it ever ocurred to you that a people vs the government ground war could just as easily turn into a chinese or russian backed proxy war against the US and by the time all the cities are rubble and all involved are tired and demoralized the foreign army swoops in to "restore order" and "conduct humanitarian missions." Hell, those nice young chinese men, boy they sure are swell, they gave us rebels guns n bombs, and they even helped us set up a new government!
What great guys, I for one am glad I helped the chairman of the north american chinese territories get rid of them pesky feds during the revolution!

War is always portrayed as two sided, in reality there will always be more going on behind the scenes than the grunt in the trenches is privvy to, or can even have any say in.

And I DID say that the advice I was going to give is mostly boring crap. Because thats what works.

What? Did you think I was going to bust out an infographic showing how to build an anti drone radar guided missile with some beer cans, gasoline, and a walkie talkie?

There are countless elaborate ruses, gadjets, and tacticool operator lore. In reality a simple solution enacted in an intelligent manner will be the most effective every time because you can read "the operators operational guide to operating operationally: The special operators edition" written by a navy SEAL but that doesnt mean you will be a SEAL with his budget and training.

Average joes trying seal team six shit WILL die. Simple murder holes placed to exploit enemy ROE's and IED's emplaced to take advantage of observed weaknesses and security lapses is not just good advice, but something you dont need to spend 18 months practising to learn.

Unless some Canadians are crossing the border to fight then the term "insurgency" is a misnomer.

If a war were to happen between the US gov and US people it would be an "insurrection".

the terms are similar, but there is a singular important difference.


>then their only option is to start dumping rounds in the enemies direction (giving their position away) or retreat after 2-3 quick rounds...

this is actually how you fight as an insurrectionist though.

you say this:

>I think the guys with scoped rifles and woods experience will be far more effective than guys tricking out ar's with aimpoops and eotrash's...

and then follow it with this....

>America isnt the vietnam jungle where firepower will be king. we have massive infrastructure/roadways/
interstates/developed areas with long lanes of fire.

so where is it you think people should be fighting, innawoods or innacity? Because you just named 2 very different types of warfare and then applied the OPPOSITE infantry solutions to both.

All of that "infrastructure" is in and around cities that to take would require Close Quarters Combat where eotechs and aipoints excel because of their ability to transition from intermediate range to close range

innawoods is where you want high power scopes.


>as a poverty 20 something year old i got a ruger scout with a leupold 1.5-4 scout scope. i wouldnt feel outgunned if some brazilian UN platoon came operating in my area with their iron sight fal's

you're saying that because you have a 1.5 power optic, that you feel you will have an advantage over a trained soldier with backup, logistics support, communcations, and CAS?

lol, ok.

>because id prone out, drop 2-3 and bug out to set a new ambush.

I like how he talks about enemy combatants almost dismissiveley too. Like they will just stand around long enough for him to kill 2 or 3 of them effortlessly and that he will just breezily exfil to a secondary site, and they will just obligingly march right into his zone of fire instead of trying to flank or call in indirect fire.
Almost like hes dealing with....... video game NPC's!

I'm guessing this means you know how to target and sabotage supply lines. Sure, you could just use Formula P to take care of anything, but then what 2nd and 3rd order effects will that have? how fucked are the rest of the non combatants now that you just Destroyed a bridge instead of limit its threshold? No such thing as speshul tactics you fucking nigger. SF is SF because they can destabilize without fucking the country up for the next couple years. Once the job is done everything should be a smooth transition back to the way it was and only have minimal repairs to get everything back to normal.

I can see it now. A guy takes a shot with his 0.308 with a 3-12x scope at a patrol, misses to the left by an inch, then gets crushed by artillery. It's almost as if he would he be been better off strapping a bomb to his chest. Stop trying to convince people that your small arm is to resist a tyrannical government during an insurrection. It just makes other gun owners look bad. The only weapon that is effective in the hands of an insurgency is an ied, which is why destructive devices are outlawed but your gun isn't.

You don't engage in the cities. More damage can be done in the countrysides because supply lines aren't going to be only by air, and in order to control a region you have to control more than just the city in it. The Grab SKS, go Innawoods is more than just a meme that's spouted, it's an effective tactic as eventually the opposing force would have to try to find the defectors, and bombing the entire countryside isn't a good tactic when food isn't a commodity during mass civil unrest.

No.
People dont leave stuff like armoured vehicles unguarded in dark shadowy easy to sneak around in garages like in the movies.

They will be guarded and in a well lit area and there will be atleast two or three sentries and an entire barracks nearby to respond to noises like you shooting them.

You arent an operator, or a plucky movie hero who can just quietly neutralize sentries with nothing but a piece of piano wire as a garotte before stealthily placing your charges and slipping away through a convieniently placed sewer grate that the enemy even more convientiently forgot to padlock.

If you really wanna fuck up armoured vehicles with minimal risk to yourself you use ieds.

Graffitti is a source of intel and tells an occupier who is there, how the public feels about them, roughly how many of them there are, how much area they control, and what places they frequent.

We used to read taliban grafitti all the time for such purposes.

"Welcome to sangin, this shall be the grave yard of the Marines" was painted across a banner in front of a shop in pashto dialect, which a few of us had learned to read. Guess which building we raided first?

Another good one
"Allah bless all of the taliban fighters trained here for they are holy martyrs"
In bright red spray paint across the top of a compounds gate. Huh, guess thats a taliban training compound. Lets put them under surveillance and raid the shit outta them, capture 15 recruits and 4 instructors complete with HD color photos of them training to be terrorists.

The one factor of major chaos that is not mentioned is what happens when the meds run out? The US has the largest population of chronically medicated people in human history. Some of these people dont even tell their partners what they are taking.

It's something you realistically could expect. Take it from us yuropoors who were occupied in WW2. There are people out there who only think about themselves (specially during war because it's very hard times and they got kids to feed etc.) and the occupying force will have collaborators everywhere. The nazis didn't have fancy surveillance drones, but they had all sorts of people spying for them. The waiter in your favorite diner, even the beggar on the street and so on.

This.

Having guns doesnt make a person heroic or stalwart defenders of justice. That shit comes from charecter. In every occupation of one country by another, or by a totalitarian regime there have always been collaborator spy networks and even armed supporters of the occupiers.

The nazi gestappo brigades comprised of locals being used to hunt other locals comes to mind, or how hitler used french arms plants to arm the vichy french nazi collaborators and used them to fight the partisans.

During an insurrection one would always have to be wary of thier neighbors selling them out.

Polish occupation comes to mind, the Nazis created a famine and people would sell out thier neighbors for stuff they didnt even do in exchange for food.

Its entirely possible that you could just be minding your own buisiness and get fucked over, either somebody who just doesnt like you reports you as a rebel sabotuer, or told the rebels you are a collaborator.

Saw that in afghan a lot too. Farmers having a dispute would try to tell us that thier rival was taliban just because they wanted to see his house get raided, or theyd accuse him of helping us to the taliban so they could see him get his ass beheaded.

What is with you fucking morons thinking you're going to get long lines of sight?

I literally CAN'T shoot at several hundred yards, because outside of an airstrip or ONE private range, there's literally no unbroken lines of sight that long anywhere near me if I don't want to climb a fucking fire tower.

A considerable portion of the country is a mess of forest, urban sprawl, suburb, wetland, and hills.

If you're arming yourself to fight on US soil, you should be preparing for short to medium range fights, and planning for light weapons with good ammo commonality.

And don't give me this "MUH ROADS AND HIGHWAYS" shit.

They're not straight out here either, or entirely flat for more than a mile.

If you're posted up trying to snipe da gubbement as they drive down the highway, you're a RETARD. You'll be taking a rifle to engage vehicles moving at speed in an area where you are completely exposed.


Interstate highways often feature trees up to the side of the road, hills or dropoffs on both sides, and buildings in the only flat areas.


Welcome to New England. You're probably not shooting at more than 100-200 yards unless you're elevated, hitting an airstrip, or exposed.

Exactly.

Plus collaboration would be incentivized.

Our own CIA did some sort of operation in viet nam where they essentially used rape and sexual deviancy as torture methods to extract information, and basically payed perverts to live out thier rape dungeon fantasies.

I cant remember the name of it but they did all sorts of sadistic shit, shoving eels up peoples asses, genital mutilation, electrocution, gang raping family members in front of people they wanted info from.

And yeah, the director of the program was japanese-american. Go fuckin figure.

Point is people talk tough, but when you are tied to a chair and some local freak on the federal pay roll is getting ready to shove a lit road flare up your daughters ass you are going to tell him what you know.

He gets to do the shit he used to only be able to think about while masturbating and gets paid to do it, so long as he keeps a steady stream of "intel" flowing to his handlers.

And his handlers dont really care if its accurate or not, because the fear of what can happen to them just for being suspected or accused of helping the insurrection is just as useful a tool as actual info about who is helping them.

Our government has a lot of practice with being the evil occupiers, all that wierd shit happening in gitmo and cia black sites are nothing new, i garuntee that they have contingency plans in place for dealing with an armed american popular uprising.

Im not saying that we shouldnt activeley oppose such things, or that fighting back would be bad or useless. Im saying that most people I talk to who propose it seem to think it would be exciting or entertaining, fun even.

There would be a lot of blood, and probably quite a few atrocities comitted by both sides. Im sure the rebels would have thier own trained sadists doing horrid things to collaborators families too.

"The problem was, how do you find the people on the blacklist? It's not like you had their address and telephone number. The normal procedure would be to go into a village and just grab someone and say, 'Where's Nguyen so-and-so?' Half the time the people were so afraid they would not say anything. Then a Phoenix team would take theinformant, put a sandbag over his head, poke out two holes so he could see, putcommo wirearound his neck like a long leash, and walk him through the village and say, 'When we go by Nguyen's house scratch your head.' Then that night Phoenix would come back, knock on the door, and say, 'April Fool,motherfucker.' Whoever answered the door would get wasted. As far as they were concerned whoever answered was a Communist, including family members. Sometimes they'd come back to camp with ears to prove that they killed people."

In the case OP brought up, fighting an insurgency here in the US, you need to realize you're probably going to lose a rifle or two. Being an optic elitist means that once that happens the first time you're gonna lose a good amount of your effectiveness as a fighter.
>>
>>28266661
Yeah. Now imagine them turned loose in the american countryside.

It doesnt matter that you have a rifle and 600 rounds of ammunition buried on the back 40. You will be hungry, tired, miserable. You will have no idea if your loved ones are going to be set upon by feral animals working for the CIA, and even worse, you have men just like that sleeping and eating right next to you doing the same shit to supposed collaborators.

You risk your life for little gain, watch good men die horrible deaths while sadists prosper, lose loved ones. Guess what im saying is that this is what a war on US soil is going to look like and this giddy anticipation that people put forward is sickening.

We had real-deal snipers in Iraq. Ramadi specifically. Chechens, Saudis and I think one was a Jordanian. Those guys wrecked havoc on our machine gunners in mounted patrols. An effective sniper, combined with IED's and ambushes can be an extremely dangerous combination because of the stress factor placed on the patrol. Even though tactics can be changed after some good AAR and such, but for a short time they are extremely effective, and really can only be countered with an effective and confident command staff/well trained soldiers (Marines, in my particular case).
>>
>>28266837
Yeah, our sniper that I mentioned was chechen too.

Is chechnya some kind of fucking sniper factory?

I think the iraqi guys had to deal with the juba sniper, did they ever figure out of that was just one guy or a network claiming to be one dude? Last I heard there was some contraversey over that.

Also, no offense to you guys but standing bolt upright head and shoulders out of the turret? every time i watch footage or see pictures of iraq every gunner is doing that. Makes me cringe. SOPs and force pro posture has changed a lot. When we were on the gun turret our heads never came more than high enough to peek over the top. Pain in the neck (literally) to have to be hunched/crouched low all the time but it certainly makes a difference. Had a guy put a burst of fire 4 inches over my head once. Had I been standing upright like I had wanted to all morning it woulda caught me in the face.

Then again, they were sending privates fresh from infantry school straight to war back then, and putting cooks and mechanics in gun trucks and expecting them to be just as capable as grunts.

I had a company of salty Marine NCOs to share knowledge and expierience with me as a boot, and who spoke often of thier times in iraq and thier hard earned lessons.

Getting caught standing upright in a turret would result in a pissed off corporal climbing up there and kicking you in the face. Amongst other lessons and teaching methods. I think they call that "hazing" now.

"Juba" was a myth, a poor one at that.

Juba was supposedly the sole shooter for every PSAF shooting in the Iron Triangle for like 5 fucking years.

The only people that believed in him were people that never left the wire, or had never been in country. No offense on the latter point.

We stood in our turrets on the move, depending on the neighborhood.

SAF and PSAF weren't really a thing we had to worry too much about since local hajj liked to save that for the IP and IA since they were complacent corrupt douchebags.

My faith in the protection of the turret shield/& chicken shield was kind of destroyed when a guy I knew was killed down-low in his turret seat by an RPG.

On-topic

We talked about this a lot in Iraq (Oh hey 2007, damn near civil war).

Of the lower enlisted, there was mostly a consensus against combat on American soil against Americans. Killing some asshole on the other-side of the world was acceptable to us all, killing our quintessential neighbors?

No.

Most said they would desert, or join a resistance movement.

Career guys who indulged the conversations (NCOs), based their loyalty off their families protection ( a pretty Hobbesian and rational concept).

There was of course the 2+/-% edgy group of possible sociopaths who said they loved the idea of civil war, and really believe and want it to happen in their lifetime.

Honestly if you see how fucked up Iraq is, you see very little reason to begin an armed resistance in the United States with our present civil liberties and prosperity.

I'm drunk, and that was a really long sentence. But the last thing I would ever want to see is the type of shit happening now in Syria, or any lower level of what I witnessed in Iraq, occurring anytime soon in the United States.

Yeah I get ya. Pogs used to try to tell us stockpiles of 80's stinger missiles were floating around and that they could use them to shoot our helos down.

Ya know, ignoring the fact that stingers have an un-replaceable battery inside the missile itself that only lasts 5 years and if theyd had a way to take our aircraft out they surely would have fucking used it by 2012.

Or flak cannons. Every fucking mission "oh and there are rumors of technicals armed with old russian quad mount anti air cannons"

Like I said, if theyve had anti air capability they would use it, because our air slaughtered the utterly uncontested every day. If they had it, they would have used it, its not like they are helplessly being gunned down by almost stationary hovering apaches because they want to.

You are literally retarded. If you're extremely lucky, you may actually get one kill before your ass gets smoked, hard. Real life isn't anything like CoD. After your first shot, there will be a hail of lead all around you. The air will fill with flying bullets from dozens of rifles and several machine guns. While you're pinned in place, unable to even stick your hand out without getting it demolished, another group will flank you and shoot you down like a dog.

And that's just basic training tactics, standard "braindead ordertaker" bullshit. If there are gunships on overwatch, they won't even bother flanking, they'll just double the number of guns pinning you down.

Secondly your 'red dawn' scenario is bullshit from the 80s. FLIR, ballistic radar and drones mean that you and your Ar15 are about a relevant to open warfare as a bushman with a stick. Gruella warfare is obsolete and a fuckwit like you can't grasp asymmetric fighting.

You are no threat to anyone. Just a dickhead with a fantasy and no clue..

That guy is also assuming we did stuff like use doors.

Our SOP was to blow a hole in the wall with a rocket as soon as the assault team was in position to move through the breech.

Driving a truck through the wall worked when civ cas or collateral was a factor.

Which brings up another piece of advice, the easiest way to get somewhere isnt always the best, because your enemy probably anticipates you to use it.

Just because theres a door doesnt mean you HAVE to use it.

Goes the same for concealment. Hiding behind the only tree on a ridgeline isnt effective, following a road or readily available path to your target isnt either.

Think like this when planning an assault: "if I was in his position where would I think the enemy would come from, or hide behind"

Because i garuntee the most obvious solutions have guns pointed at them before you ever got there.

They had a pkm pointed at the door we hadnt known about, we just went "if it was my compound I'd have a gun pointed at that door" which is why we came through the wall behind it.


Obviously common sense plays in to this as well, the most retarded way to do something is still the most retarded way to do it, just dont make the assumption that the easiest is always actually the easiest.

Currently, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 14 offenses are punishable by death. Under the following sections of the UCMJ, the death penalty can be imposed at any time:
94 - Mutiny or sedition
99 - Misbehavior before the enemy
100 - Subordinate compelling surrender
101 - Improper use of countersign
102 - Forcing a safeguard
104 - Aiding the enemy
106a - Espionage
110 - Improper hazarding of vessel
118 - Murder (including both premeditated murder and felony murder)
120 - Rape (including child rape)

Four provisions of the UCMJ carry a death sentence only if the crime is committed during times of war:
85 - Desertion
90 - Assaulting or willfully disobeying a superior commissioned officer
106 - Lurking as a spy or acting as a spy
113 - Misbehavior of a sentinel or lookout
