How would you upgrade a protest to a revolution? The setting is a european cuckcountry, so people have no guns by default.
Your forces: Protesters from different groups and trades, numbering in the thousands. Some willing to sacrifice themselves for the cause.
The opponents: Police, increasingly better armed as your revolution is gaining momentum. If you are slow a modern but very small army.

Didn't Putin do something along those lines a few years ago? With Russian special forces inciting the violence that probably wouldn't have started in the first place

Home made explosives.
Cell phone cameras everywhere for when the police overreact.
Friendly news media to take footage and help deligitimize the government.
Community organizations to help people live their lives in the midst of the madness so that you will simultaneously build support among your neighbors (free supplies, intel, and safehouses) and provide them with a viable, tangible alternative to the government, helping them accept your claim to power much more readily.

Do you think it can't be done with only 'normal' revolutionairies?
Most revolutions don't involve foreign special forces.

Read "The Sling and the Stone" by Ltc. Thomas X. Hamm USMC. He explains fourth generation warfare in great detail. He really is the best.

Do what the Ukrainians did- sack the police stations and government buildings. Molotovs and sticks my burn and bruise but guns and gear will kick some rear.

Go to Bosnia and fill a truck with a metric ton of recoil less rifles, grenades, and automatic rifles.

CHAPTER 5 A PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE FROM SWIMMING POOL CLORINATING COMPOUND ( H.T.H. )
This explosive is a chlorate explosive from bleach. This method of
production of potassium or sodium chlorate is easier and yields a
more pure product than does the plastique explosive from bleach
process. In this reaction the H.T.H. ( calcium hypo-chlorate –
CaClO ) is mixed with water and heated with either sodim chlorate
( table salt, rock salt ) or potassium chloride (salt substitute). The
latter of these salts is the salt of choice due to the easy
crystalization of the potassium chlorate. This mixture will need to be
boiled to ensure complete reaction of thc ingredients.
Obtain some H.T.H. swimming pool chlorination compound or
equivalent (usually 65% calcium hypochlorite). As with the bleach
is also a dissociation reaction. In a large pyrex glass or enameled
steel container place 1200 g. H.T.H. and 220 G. potassium chloride or
159 g. sodium chloride. Add enough boiling water to dissolve the powder
and boil this solution. A chalky substance ( calcium chloride ) will be
formed. When the formation of this chalky substance is no longer formed,
the solution is filtered while boiling hot. If potassium chloride was
used, potassium chlorate will be formed. This potassium chlorate will
drop out or crystalize as the clear liquid left after filtering
cools.These crystals are filtered out when the solution reaches room
temperature. If the sodium chloride salt was used this clear filtrate
( clear liquid after filtration ) will need to have all water evaporated.
This will leave crystals which should be saved.
These crystals should be heated in a slightly warm oven in a
pyrex dish to drive off all traces of water ( 40 – 75 deg.C. ). These
crystals are ground to a very fine powder ( 400 mesh ).

If the sodium chloride salt is used in the initial step, the
crystallization is much more time consuming. The potassium chloride is the
salt to use as the resulting product will crystallize out of solution as
it cools. The powdered and completely dry chlorate crystals are kneaded
together with vaseline in plastique bowl. ALL CHLORATE BASED EXPLOSIVES ARE
SENSITIVE TO FRICTION, AND SHOCK, AND THESE SHOULD BE AVOIDED. If sodium
chloride is used in this explosive, it will have a tendancy to cake and
has a slightly lower detonation velocity. This explosive is composed of
the following:
Potassium or sodium chlorate90 %
Vaseline10 %
The detonation velocity can be raised to a slight extent by the
addition of 2 – 3 % aluminum powder substituted for 2 – 3 % of the vaseline.
The addition of this aluminum will give this explosive a bright flash if
set off at night which will ruin night vision for a short while. The
detonation velocity of this explosive is approximately 3200 M/sec. for
the potassium salt and 2900 M/sec. for the sodium salt based explosive.
You can then make a simple shaped charge with a conical-bottom wine glass.
Cut the bottle several inches from the bottom (string+rubbing alcohol+ice bath method is very effective) and fill with the plastic explosive.
Secure popsicle sticks/pens/sticks/whatever to the bottle to provide standoff legs.
I'd use a crimped spent casing or small lightbulb detonator, either with visco fuse or electrical wire and a couple of 9v batteries in series.

people do have guns, although they're mainly for hunting, so shitloads of bolt actions and double barrels.
So, saw down the double barrels for urban hit and runs. While the bolt actions are used for assassination and ambushes in mountainous terrain.
IEDs everywhere.

Yeah, but without heavily trained Russian forces doing most of the heavy lifting in the revolution it probably would have ended at a skirmish, pretty obvious when you see video of an overweight mid 40 year old blindly dumping mags hiding behind a brick wall not hitting shit
And a guy in some new looking jeans, and an AK54 dropping police forces on a grainy CNN video running around like he's been training everyday of his life
If you want to incite the protesters you don't use homemade explosives it gives the cops justification for whatever they do.
You need to impersonate a police officer and be caught on tape stepping out of bounds.
Also need a good target.
Probably start beating a protester almost to death then shoot his pregnant girlfriend when she tries to interfere.
When he comes out of the hospital he'll be a revolution leader.

IEDs
What is the reaction time of police and army to stuff like this?
It seems to me that with some planning and the cover of a chaotic riot, you could storm government buildings and take a large part of the government prisoner. Would an army even fight if that happens?
