Given all of the happenings that have occurred in the first quarter of 2016, can we please have a SHTF/Survival thread?

Post your survival infographics, links to PDFs, schematics, etc.

No because /k/ is terrible at this. Their idea of surviving is romping through the woods playing DevCAG and arguing about how Steel trauma plates are clearly better than ceramic because they're $20 cheaper.

You need to have what ever hygiene products the women in your family need as well as things for every day use.
Get a piile of ammo even if you use credit to do it.
All the ingredients required for the perfect storm to start the Marxist revolution are in place. Soros has a few ten thousand paid agitators already hard at work, all they need is the match. Just one blatantly bad cop shooting on a hot day and the BLM movement will do their thing, maybe it's the promised "largest civil disobedience rally" in recorded history promised by Soros' move on commies....I don't know exactly but you can bet your life, and will be if not prepared, they are in position for this plan they have been working on FOR FUCKING DECADES.

a good .22 lr rifle
>>

>>
>>29350469

you can take down most animals (and people) with a .22 if needed. You can shoot a bird or squirrel or other small game for food without blowing it up. You can carry a backpack filled with .22 easily, .223 .308 and 12/20ga is harder to carry large amounts. .22 rifle is $150-300 brand new, ammo is like $6 for 100. A child, woman, or noguns can easily master the rifle. etc etc

First step is to have a plan in place. If shtf, have an agreed-on communication procedure and plan for her to get to your location.

Assuming you have smart phones, communicate by texting. That takes less bandwidth than voice. Use a very simple code format to maximize information. Single word codes only.

Assuming that the goal is to get her to your location, her first priority is to get out of the affected area. This may require moving along a series of safe spots in the city as she works closer to the urban boundary. You should be waiting at a rendezvous location, as close as possible.

Your gf should notify you when she leaves and when she arrives at each pre-selected safe spot. A rudimentary code will suffice. Something like "L2T3 detour". Leaving spot 2, travelling to spot 3, I have to get around a roadblock.

You should have a change of clothes, toiletries, food, and water at the meeting point.

Keep current copies of your identification and financial documents encrypted on a flash drive. If you want to be really paranoid, encrypt them again and back them up to the cloud. That way, if you need to uproot and leave the country, you have the essentials for a new start.
>>
>>29350469

During new year's eve, messaging services that go over the internet like whatsapp, usually get overflowed and go offline, is sms something that is more reliable? i can imagine that in case of happening people start messaging like crazy.
Idea is now, since goverment probably locks the city down it's going to be hard to get in, but she probably can go out, would it be a good plan to let her walk/evacuate out of the dangerzone and than pick her up by car in a safezone and bring her home through rural area's?
Or am i thinking about this to simple, i can imagine that during an evac people go crazy, and it's not safe for her to be alone

Minimum is a concealable handgun that will absolutely penetrate a couple heavy layers of clothing with thee or four extra magazines and 3 or 4 hundreds rounds stored. Best is a 16 to 18 inch barrel length semi auto rifle that has proven reliability with extra magazines and ammo.

BUT...none of that matters if you don't get proficient and fucking stay proficient with the firearm.
>>
>>29352382
Shit is happening in every first world nation on the planet idiot. We have had more violent civil unrest in the US in the last 18 months than we have had in the last 2 decades.

>>

This. You could pull off a .22 rifle or handgun if you were very proficient with it and had enough ammo to last. But even an AR-15 or AK would be worthless in the hands of someone with no firearms experience.

>would it be a good plan to let her walk/evacuate out of the dangerzone and than pick her up by car in a safezone and bring her home through rural area's?

Yes. I was assuming that her travel options would be more limited than yours. That's why I suggested using a series of safe spots. She might have to spend several hours or overnight in one or more spots. These safe spots don't have to be some kind of CIA safe house like you see in the movies. An all night cafe, a laundromat, bookstore, or any other place where she can take a break. It's preferable that safe spots have at least 2 exits, but not mandatory.

Regarding SMS communications, it's the simplest method and relatively reliable. There's a chance that even SMS will go down in a crisis, but it's likely to stay up longer than voice comms.

If she has to walk to a spot where you can pick her up, you want her to have some means of defense. Something as simple as 3 golfballs in a sock will work as an impromptu flail. A pistol would be ideal, but that might get her detained. A walking stick or hiking staff would be a good option. You can also make pepperspray with vodka and cayenne.

Set her up with a bug out bag, one that's tailored to her urban environment. You don't want a bulky pack, but something like a messenger bag that can be slung under an overcoat. Be very careful to not make it look like a suicide vest, though. She might have to settle for stuffing her pockets with an assortment of carefully selected items, and maybe carrying a sizeable purse.

I don't think we should destroy them or give them to the police... Maybe to the Border Patrol due to the drug hostilities still happening, but I don't think your average police department needs an armored assaulr vehicle, not even NYPD.
If you ask me, we should just keep the vehicles in the military, as like a reserve. I know it's considered "surplus" as in we already have enough, but they could prove useful if we run low on resources in a future war. Unless the vehicles themselves are compromised or otherwise unsafe to use in military situations where they are using full auto, higher caliber, and explosives, then it's probably best to repair them and give to border patrol or donate to friendly countries.
>>
>>29363263
Not that anon, but if grils would wear cargo pants for once, stuffing their pockets could be a good thing. When you run empty the pockets it leaves more room for looted food/water and supplies. But literally every girl I've met hates cargo pants. I know they're not $100+ fancy jeans, but at least they have a function and don't look totally hideous like most functional clothes, and they're cheaper too.

If you want to do that right they have deep freezers designed to run off low voltage solar powered batteries. Some of them use as little as 300ish watts a day and properly insulated can go a week before they come close to thawing even in warmer months. They may not be cheap but are a fantastic way to lay in a veritable shitload of fresh meets and used at higher temps also make perfect cold storage for medicines and things.

Maybe those aren't, but there are waterproof bottle that size and smaller. The point was what you could do,not necessarily what

It's better protection, the tradeoff being the additional bulk. If you can get it into your BOB so it doesn't get mashed, go for it. If the sealing surface gets distorted by being too tightly packed, it'll take a permanent set which makes sealing very difficult. You can crank the straps down tighter, that'll make your face go numb in 10 minutes and give you a screaming headache in 20. It also makes your jaw ache from being so tightly cinched up.

Half mask and splash goggles are a BOB compromise that should get you through whatever respiratory hazards you encounter on your way to your BOL.

Guess you never had to get home through a riot when the police target masks. Which has become a policy.
