I mean competent enough to fight a government army or law enforcement, either as a militia or as a lone wolf. Asking for a friend who thinks the government may soon become tyrannical.

Outside of the army, where can you get this type and level of training?

I am vaguely aware of some private training companies like the one Chris Kyle had, which train ordinary civilians in weapons and tactics but something makes me skeptical about this. Would they sincerely teach a civilian everything they know, or just enough to give them a fun weekend and get paid? And also, of course a 2 day course doesn't compare to a whole boot camp.

Another option is military videos/training manuals. Of course these are accessible but you don't have an instructor to show you what you're doing wrong. Also you may not get a full picture of what information you need and may only study an incomplete list of techniques, "You don't know what you don't know".

To me the best option seems to be finding an antigovernment militia with ex military members who do training exercises for their members.

Thoughts?

A random shit hit fan situation is presented to you, you have one and only one rifle you can have by your side to survive.
which do you choose? Why?

Can't go wrong with an ak obvs,
1. reliable
2. easy to use
3. easy to maintain.
4. stopping power, for any and all obstacles.

but the fal is a very close second.
For anybody underestimating its durability:

An AK's reliability depends on a lot of factors. There are some AK's that are shit, and some that are not.

FAL's are great guns too, but a lot of variables factor in to what I would carry in a SHTF situation, and after a lot of deliberation based on my particular environment, I wouldn't go with a .308.
And more than likely not an AK.

In my area, which is an urban environment, I'd need something that could be concealed easily enough, with versatility in terms of caliber and application.
I would probably go with an AR-15 with a 16 inch barrel for regular movement, and have a 10 inch .300 blackout upper receiver with a detachable suppressor stowed in my bag.
In this way, if I needed to, I could go hard-hitting suppressed with the change of an upper, and switch back to the more commonly available 5.56 platform if needed.

I don't really believe in the "scavenging" thing as far as ammo is concerned. It will probably be extremely unlikely, and you'd probably have to get into some deep shit just to get to ammo and supplies in general.

But IF I found ammo, it would probably be .223/5.56, 9mm, or 12 gauge.
But most likely, a person will be stuck with whatever they had stocked before an SHTF situation came down.

The FAL, because it's the only one I actually have.

Also because I live in Texas, and there are plenty of wide open spaces.

Where do you imagine all of that happening?

If WW3's going to happen it's likely to happen largely in N. Africa and barely affect the US at all outside of costing us an assload more money.

defect to the Russians

I've seen this about 4 years ago in London, all black no windows or anything, no logos or signs. The presence of the fighter jets made suspicious. I've never seen anything like the thing attached to the top of the plane. When i saw this I immediately took the pic of the 3 planes.

Alright. Let's talk about Weapon Manipulation™. When you're running your Carbine™, you're going to want things such as Power Authority®, Retention® and your gear (D3® Chest Rig) 'Working Around You, Not the Other Way Around™'. This applies whether you're Military®, Law Enforcement or if you're just a Responsible Armed Citizen™.

No worries. I've been recently running™ a lot of the Trijicon® MRO studying the human eye and Saccadic Eye Movements™. Shot around 100,000 rounds through my BCM™ .300 BLK Carbine™ over the past few months.

The key to success is Never Being Absolute™. Be Dynamic®, things will change along with concepts and new ideas.

Does the Textron AirLand Scorpion stand any chance at all of being successful with so many competitors for the trainer/light attack market?

>Hongdu L-15 is cheaper and will only get cheaper as production scales
>Yakovlev is cheaper, in wide use by Russia, and has Russian market connections
>Aermacchi is already being sold to client nations and has Raytheon and Finmeccanica involvement
>KAI is already proven with several countries and has less diplomatic hangups than Russian, Chinese, or American aircraft purchases

Is the Scorpion going to be successful? They seem to want to position it as a low-cost, long-loiter light attack jet. Will anyone buy into it even with the propeller-driven Super Tucano out there and the above jet options? Will the program even finish?

i dont even know why the scorpion is so expensive in the first place

>>30653411
>Is the Scorpion going to be successful?

I wager it'll come down to the flight readiness, operational endurance, quality of the avionics, and what weapons systems of each aircraft. Either that or the biggest political and economic bully in each competitor's sphere of influence.

>>30653411
The Scorpion is principally marketed as an ISR platform, then light attack then any possible training applications.

I never wanted a SIG, and all these nightmare stories I've heard have made me want one even less. If want was numerically quantifiable, I would now have negative levels of want for a SIG.
