6/10 for concept; I like that you're trying to force some self-reflection in your target audience.

where is the rest of your crew?
Or are you telling me in a SHTF situation, you're going out alone, with all that valuable gear?
>>
>>30104220

Thats way to many mags on your rig. I carry 6 +1 in my rifle and any spare ammo or mags in assault pack that can be easily grounded to facilitate maneuver. Pistol is a weapon on last resort I wouldn't carry more then 3 spare mags + 1 in the weapon.

A full combat load (if you were in the military) should be no more than 22 pounds of ammunition on your person.

Get a different camo pattern, for the green environment pictured I recommend either EMR/Digiflora, DPM or Green-Dominant ERDL if you can find it.

In a legitimate SHTF situation, you really need the following:
Rifle, max 200 rounds
Side arm, max 75 rounds
Radio (please become a HAM, not just a CB fag)
2-3 days water and food
Medic kit
Large fixed blade
Medium folding blade
Blanket
Flashlight
Matches

That's a great load out
don't take more ammo than that, if the shit hits the fan, you need to be moving a lot, so you shouldnt have more than 100 pounds or gear

>>
>>30104525
In SHTF it's about wearing the most practical durable shit you have because that's all your going to have. Nowadays anybody can go buy some multicam and wear it, it's not going to matter or cause you to get in anymore gun fights than you're already going to be getting in and if you're trying to avoid conflict and going Inna woods your best option is to wear durable BDUs. And either way if you're carrying a weapon you're going to be seen as a combatant to everybody so who gives a shit about what you're wearing?
>>
>>30104767
In my opinion it's best to carry at least 500 rds in your main rifle more if possinle because that's generally what Marines take on patrols and such. In a shtf you're only going to have what's on you and granted you should be avoiding conflicts whenever possible and not spending a tin of ammo it's not hard to spend 200 rds in a single firefight especially if it's a long firefight or your vastly out numbered. Better to stack the odds in your favor where you can and I don't think carrying 500rds is that obnoxious especially of you already got a plate carrier.

Are you for real? In SHTF there will be plenty of people left, those who go innawoods and wear BDU will get BTFO by groups of people. Wearing weapons will be a big kill me sign if you are alone. Having concealed weapons will be key, not getting in fights will be key, its not a fan vidya game. "Not getting in more gunfights than your already getting in" should be zero, becase gunfights are pretty fun final, if you get shot in the gut in SHTF the chances of you getting g treatment are slim to none. Just because you can buy multicam and wear it doesn't mean should unless you are part of a military unit militia unit trying to stay concealed in an attack, any regular should just be trying to not die and that means being part of a community. You lone wolf innawoods faggots are gonna get hunted down and smoked out.
If you can't see someones weapon than you arent an obvious combatant are you slick?

So basically everyone should just give up, throw away their shotguns, ARs, bolt actions and other primaries because people will suddenly want to kill the guy WHO CLEARLY FROM SIGHT HAS THE ABILITY TO EASILY KILL YOU?

>>30108908
Why not keep them in a backpack? Broken down? Unless you are part of a militia... because "from sight" implied they have seen you first, unless they have really bad accuracy it's not a fucking game. They got you. If you don't have a gun you are not a threat. It depends on the situation, if I'm with a group I wouldn't be scared to hold a gun in the open.

The OP has medic strapped to himself, does he know more than how to tourniquet himself?
Do you know how to find cover in a firefight?
You DONT want to be in a firefight , and if you are in a team that's in SHTF that's not lone wolfin it, then your likely training and trained for this by a vet and wearing cam anyways. But for the general dude. You want to look uninteresting and general, not like OP

TOP KEK

OP first let me just say that 10/10 bait.

But in all seriousness, dressing up like a soldier/militia is pants on head retarded. You're basically wearing a big "I'M A THREAT" sign.

I don't even advocate walking outside with or without a gun unless you have back up or if you ABSOLUTELY need to.

In SHTF bugging in and barracading your home is the smartest thing to do.

Dressing like a normal fag is the smartest thing to do.

Avoiding fire fights is the smart thing to do.

Not killing random people (even the LARPers) is the smart thing to do.

The smart thing to do is observe and take notes, while avoiding any attention from your home.

If possible try to establish a truce or friendship with your neighbors.

Avoiding violence is crucial, of you're out there killing people you're only going to gain enemies out for revenge or turn yourself into "that crazy guy who shoots at anybody"

No sorry I like prefer quality rifles over gimmicky bullpups, AUGs are great tho I'll give you that.

If I needed it in a split second I'd have to say "woah hol up faggot I need to get my long shooty out of my book bag and put it together gimme a sec". Furthermore why should I look like easy prey?

You should do what is applicable to your given situation

Personally I'm all for the gray man concept while having armor and a rifle hidden underneath a coat if the weather allows it and I have proper back up/being in a group.

There is no right answer for everything.

Of course I also think being able to survive via water purification,food, and shelter is more important than rolling around in full battle rattle.

Depends on what you want to do in a SHTF scenario... What if he WANTS to get himself into horrifying running gunfights with looters... what if he WANTS to attempt to shoot his way out of ambushes. Honestly, survival is a pretty specific mission. If I'm gonna be traveling in a SHTF, im gonna be carrying enough shit to get me through some serious situations. If Im gonna be surviving, then Im gonna find a mine shaft to live out of.

Me? I'll be hauling ass to get as far away from civilization as I can. I've got land and a nice little garden and well far enough away from people that it will do fine by me. When I get tired of just surviving and not actually LIVING, I'll figure out what I want to do from there.

You wouldnt live long enough to squeeze off a single round.

There was a guy who wrote about his firsthand account of being beseiged in a city in Bosnia during the civil war in the 90s, a SHTF scenario. Nothing coming in or out of the city, an apocalypse for survivors. The guys with expensive houses with high fences, cameras, dogs, wire, looted within the first weeks. The guys rolling around looking like they had anything valuable, gear, clothes, expensive rifles, eventually picked off by snipers. The way for the avergage man to survive, and you are indeed average, was to look inconspicuous, hole up, form a group with family and neighbors to protect your own. Lone wolves were killed, you cannot always watch your back.

Unless you are planning on living so deep innawoods that you dont have human contact, in which case its camping. But do not pretend your imaginings are anything beyond fetishized fantasy.

Army surplus store had a sale. Wearing plain, well fitted clothes that don't look tactical would allow you to better blend in. SHTF most of of your time spent would be finding a way out. You would look like a high dollar tacticooler and a target.
I'd want the ammo you have on display, your upper if an AR twerp and your tooled up glock and mags. (Depending on cal) I would take most of the ammo trade the gun for some food. I bet I could trade some other airsoft fag for a lot of food with that get up in my possession.

Yeah, but it's an even bigger weight saving to just not carry a rifle on your person 24/7 because "SHTF".

The most likely disaster scenarios in the western world are all weather-related; why do you need a gun for that?

inb4
>HHRRURR DURRR *****NEED******* GGTFO NOGUNS SHALL NOT INFRINGE

If you're hoofing it around town trying to look for shelter or aid stations or whatever, an extra five to ten pounds is a lot. There's also the issue of responding police/national guard/aid workers reacting negatively to you (whether it's as simple as just refusing to help you or as fatal as opening fire) because you're carrying a firearm. And if you're worried about looters and shit, why are you going outside? Stay home. You have door locks and hopefully robust doors and windows. You can lean your gun against the couch or something in case you hear glass shattering.
>>

You wouldn't even need a gun, my friend. The Amish are the friendliest people on the planet, and very accepting, too. If SHTF and a lot of infrastructure went down, they probably wouldn't even be affected. Just stick around with them and you'll be fine.

>l-looters

Like I said, most "SHTF" situations that are actually likely are going to be weather-related -- a tornado or hurricane, heat waves, major snow/ice storms, etc. People aren't going to be looting much in those conditions, because everything is destroyed. There's no sense robbing a house when the house is underwater.

Even in katrina, most of the "looting" was played up by the media and was mostly mercenaries popping off shots for no reason. Or that one great story of a "raging firefight" that turned out to be a car repeatedly misfiring.

Or better yet, the 98 ice storm. Barely any looting or other crime happened during that period, because it was too fuckoff cold to go looting, and there were police (and military, in some spots) out who could easily stop you. Most people just stayed home.

It really sounds more like you people are the real criminals -- you just call it "scavenging" instead of "looting" even though your plans literally come down to knocking over a grocery store with an AK as soon as the power is out for longer than five minutes.

Katrina had minimal looting.

The LA Riots were not "SHTF". Nothing was broken. It was a riot. And an even better example of "Just stay home". Live in an upscale area with police coverage? Fug it. Stay home. You're less likely to be targeted for being white if you're not in public. Live in the hood where shit's going down the hardest? Also stay home, because that's where all your stuff is and you can probably more easily protect it than you can if you're going around joining the other hood rats in robbing koreans for no reason.

What do you mean by this? That you'd be able to just blend in with a unit by wearing the uniform? Most people in the military work with eachother for ages; they'd spot a newcomer very easily.

it makes them look as unimportant as possible from a distance so that if whoever is trying to engage them who just have a second or two at a time to decide who to fuck up they wouldn't be able to accurately distinguish who the secret squirrels are.

I dunno, if I saw some asshole in full battle rattle walking down the street during an ice storm or whatever, I'd think that some shit is about to go down.

If you want to look unassuming, why not just dress like a normal fucking person?

>they wouldn't be able to accurately distinguish who the secret squirrels are.
Who is "they"?
The marines? They'll know eachother and instantly know who you are and probably ask you a lot of angry questions on why you're dressing like them.

Some invading force? They won't care and will cut you all down with automatic weapons anyway because it's not really their concern whether someone who looks like a hostile combatant is actually US-affiliated or not.

If you mean LE LOOTERS, then it's just like above. They'll treat you the same way they would anyone else in uniform, which could go any number of ways. They could kill you for your ammo and weapons like in /k/ fantasies, or they could just cross the street away. You'll never know.

What does this have to do with SHTF scenarios in the western world? And how does it conflict with anything anyone has said against wearing BDUs for no reason? (i.e., it will make you a target and cause you to stand out more in the eyes of people who would target you anyway)

No you fucking retard.

Great, now you can freeze to death like all the Talibs who did the same shit.
