@CharlieCoks More and more folks are starting to realize that some of the worst shooters are police. Most are absolute trash and only shoot a couple times a year.
@glangley If the police didn’t need a warrant to search a house or probable cause to arrest a suspect we would likely stop a ton of crime.
We don’t do those things because we value freedom. It doesn’t matter how much safety you have if you live in a surveillance/police state.
@ProblemAddicted@tjmorris_bear I have thousands of hours under night vision. Take it from me, this is LARPing pure and simple. The fact that they have artillery simulators tells me everything I need to know.
I’m not saying it’s not going be fun. What I am saying is it’s not going to be training.
@ProblemAddicted@tjmorris_bear Here’s the problem, patrolling under night vision isn’t intuitive. Driving under night vision isn’t intuitive. Shooting under night Vision isn’t intuitive. There is no way in hell a single night can even give you the basics. $1.6k for 1 night is nuts. Especially w/o live fire.
@meirakofficial The problem is that leftists treat non-acceptance of their worldview or even “mean words”, and physical attacks as violence.
In their twisted worldview, those are equally harmful.
That’s how you can have this level of cognitive dissonance.
@ProblemAddicted@tjmorris_bear It’s a LARP. Pure and simple. I don’t care who the cadre are. GBRS teaches multi-day pistol or rifle courses for about that price. And those dudes are all former Tier 1 and I still think that is over priced.
Hell, you can almost get a PVS-14 for that $1.6k.
For one night? Nuts.
@j40online@Topgoykm@theMakarioz I don’t disagree with you at all. These people are gross. They should stick to screwing with police.
That said stress testing constitutionally protected rights is a good thing.
@_JesseCinco@marvinarms6 100% to just kill as many of us as possible.
We also never had protracted fire fights. It was always short mostly due to us having a mortar team with us at the COP and Apaches almost never more than 5 min away. Those ambushes were quick and dirty but always at a distance (100m+)
@_JesseCinco@marvinarms6 Hell, we normally suppressed the crap of of them until we could get an Apache on station. But yes, we absolutely got kills out to 250+ meters. We had one guy at an OP get a 600 meter kill with a non-magnified M4 with a red dot. A luck shot but the dude dropped.
@_JesseCinco@marvinarms6 Listen, I was definitely not SF. Just a normal grunt, but we took a ton of contact and got hit a ton. The Iraqi learned early not to hit us up close. That’s why they used IED‘s and ambush tactics. I’m not sure how you didn’t experience that unless you were solely an assaulter.
@_JesseCinco@marvinarms6 I really am interested in finding out where you got your information because in Afghanistan, it was even further. That’s the reason why they started issuing LPVo’s.
@_JesseCinco I was in Iraq and we never had a tic that was closer than 100 meters. Usually further.
Also, with overwatch and PID with the ability to engage longer distance targets in an environment that isn’t a free fire zone.
You’re welcome.
Btw I run a red dot and a flip away magnifier
