This is why I don’t care about MAGAts. They are enemies of the human species and we should all be preparing to over throw these people when they try stealing the next election.
I am walking 12 miles a day at time just to get my millennial bones in shape. Pushing almost 300lbs on the bench and curling over 145lbs for sets. Get ready people. We need to defend this world.
I bought a shotgun, and once a month aim to do a gunnery drill for 150 shells. It is exhausting and expensive, but should be a good benchmark for the results of my swimming exercises: About an hour and a half of water weights, walking, and swimming. Probably another 20 minutes in the steam and hot rooms. Figure I need enough strength and endurance to patrol and wield a rifle.
If there is a 2nd American Civil War, the good guys will need infantry, and I intend to be part of the ranks. I won’t excel, but at least it frees up skilled people to hack, drone, or spy on the MAGATs.
My back was fucked. But forcing myself to do manual labor has basically healed my vertebra. I do 12 miles of walking a shift. So my whole core is in its best shape in decades.
I need to go to the range with my rifles and shotguns. My dad was a sniper and trained me how to shoot. I hope to get something that can put a bullet through an engine block. Soon.
On my end, I picked a shotgun for three reasons: 1, to shoot drones, because buckshot has a spread. 2, common and flexible ammo. 3, ease of maintenance. The way I figure, a novice like me won’t ever be able to do sharpshooting, that requires good eyes and lots of skill.
I assume both drones and armored humans would both be potential targets if fighting breaks out. If that is the case, I don’t want to juggle munitions on the field, so it needs to be deadly against both. 00 Buckshot is what I use for practice because it costs me about $14 a box for 25 rounds. 000 is what I am figuring to use as ‘serious’ ammo for live combat, but that costs about $10 for 5 shells.
The way I figure, 000 would be able to hit unarmored limbs, and consequently remove combatants from the fight. Dunno if a slug can beat armor, but I am almost certain that my accuracy is too crap to land a slug on a person. I can regularly land hits at 25 meters with a reflex sight, but that is with plentiful time, an immobile target, and no pressure.
Hopefully, if I join a militia, we would be able to hire a Ukranian veteran to instruct people. My guesses about how to prepare for conflict are probably wrong.
Yup, it was some rather insane actions by the right which finally convinced me to get my PAL/RPAL. I was always going to get it because I like shooting and the history, but this was the final nudge. Got myself a real beauty from the early 20th century that was once used to kill fascists.
I’m thankful for my eye sight. I’m nearing 40 and still have 40-20 vision. I used to hit running deer with my 30-30. When I lived in the Appalachians. I also know shotguns don’t do well against drones as you would hope but they are better than a rifle. Check out what they are doing in Ukraine with drones.

Bird shot works on ducks, maybe it’ll work on drones?
