@thatgoonsteve42 one day soon my dude. At least I have a pistol course under my belt and can runf more that 30ft without being winded lmao

I will help you improve if you want

But yeah 3per readiness is a joke

That's a good start lol

I've been looking for someone to teach as to see how well I can do it

I put airsoft above 3per tbh

At least they have cooler looking gear, might know some tactics, aren't boomers, and usually aren't obese

you can argue loot and whatever - but if I'm talking respect or preference in terms of what I'd rather be doing with who. . .

Unpopular opinion, airsoft isn't a terrible way to learn and a lot cheaper than doing live fire movements

Not unpopular at all

thats how I got my knowledge of some stuff

Also good for force on force to an extent

we were told we actually did fairly well for some dudes who just internet'd shit

yeah - even just practicing weapons handling/drawing etc with airsoft is a start

fuck yeah! We used to time ourselves reloading

@thedarkness05 yeah if you aren't playing with fucking PUGs

Imma train with simunitions

spensive

I know some 3pers who brag about their gucci'd out ar, but its basically a safe queen. Zero trigger time

Forget airsoft

It's easy to teach battle drills with dudes using airshit guns.

Yea I like me some airsoft but it gives people a false confidence

@One Shot Paddy where some thick clothing them shits hirt

I bet

I caught a sim round in the throat back in 2011 fuck that noise

Bruh that’s actually death

Reminds me of that part from band of brothers

My company was using them for force on force to get ready for a deployment

Thankfully I had that mandarin collar up on the ACUs but damn if that didn't take me down for a bit

I can only imagine

I did active shooter training with my SO, and they made me the school shooter. I was essentially the target dummy for about 50 officers. Sim rounds sting and will always find that one place not covered, gauranteed

Wear a cup

Idk man I kinda wanna go military but don’t agree with the war in the middle way rn

I mean we got our revenge for 9/11

Their soldiers not diplomats

That’s not their job

Eh. You're in high school still. Not knocking ya. You probably weren't born when 9/11 happened.

But you're right, as a member of the armed forces you're part of the US foreign policy, not a diplomat

But I've been in some shit countries and there's a lot of love for us over there doing what we're doing.

Like building infrastructure, digging wells, some of these people never saw electricity until we showed up

You don't have to be "for" a war to join up and enrich your life or the lives of some strangers
