Now ask yourself how many hunters are prior military......And also keep up on the marksmanship skills and have more than one box of ammo.

Yep, and there are 10,000 military from all branches retiring each and every day.
These will be be the new civilians.


“What good is it for citizens to have guns when the government has tanks?”
by Bob Owens

In the event of an American insurgency, it wouldn’t be a straight-up fight of partisans with rifles fighting against regime tanks, helicopters, and drones.

It would be a war where “killing” a fighter jet occurs by assassinating aircraft mechanics, or burning the homes of employees of the companies that make crucial replacement parts. It would be a war where every elected official, government employee, and skilled worker in the supply chain would be a target, every day of their lives.

In short, it would be a nasty, brutish conflict full of atrocities with no battle lines, no rear areas, no retreat, and little chance for government forces to survive over the long term.

As long as the American public outguns the military—and they do by more than 90 million firearms—no sane government would dare turn on the American people. That is the reason it is so important for the citizenry to jealously guard their Second Amendment rights.

counting the number of hunters in the us hardly comes close to accounting for the armed citizens in the us.

that number is probably closer to 100,000,000 with enough guns to arm every other american if we wanted to.

Same old stupid "everyone is too fat and stupid to fight" blah blah shit.

I guess all police, firefighters, construction workers, factory workers, athletes, hunters, etc, use hover rounds to do their daily tasks.

I guess "Air support" will go around bombing suburban neighborhoods that has homes every 100ft, and bombing bridges, and factories, and so on in the hopes of taking out the 10% that might fight who happens to be blended in with "neutral" people.

I guess all fighters will gather at one spot to be an easy target.



Reality. How do you stop the fat out of shape untrained normal person from shooting at aircraft while they sit on the tarmac with his bolt action rifle?
How do you stop him from car bombing the local water treatment plant?

Why would you even mass to fight.  Go to work.  Pay your bills.  Be a good little serf.  Fire one shot a week.  Or a month.  Don't form squads.  Don't




form armies.  Go to work.  Fire one shot.  One guy here in Montgomery today.  A guy in Birmingham in two weeks.  Another dude in Nashville a day




after that.  So one and so forth.  If you mass against the U.S. military you WILL die.  So don't do it.

Most of the game I've shot here in the west has been farther than 100 yards. Most of my hunting riffles are set up assuming a point blank range of 290 yards. Besides only a fool would attack an airbase directly.

Take out a couple of pipelines at the right locations, and a few tank farms, and those jets are done flying after a few sorties. Domestic fuel and oil supplies are interesting and involve transporting the fuel to the bases.
done properly, you would never even need to see the airfield.  drop a few overpasses and any fuel trucked in has a bad day. shoot the tanker trucks en route. there's only so many ways they can travel.

Airlift the fuel? cool, that makes the logistical costs ever higher.


Our infrastructure, or lack thereof makes some of this far easier than it should be.

but it will never come to this and everyone knows it. it's an interesting mental exercise, but nothing more. If it ever got to the point where we are in a civil war, the military would be split. It would also mean we as a nation fucked up so bad it is unthinkable.

Does the truck driver hunter have a designated doctor hunter to go to when he's injured?  Does the weekend pilot hunter have a designated civil engineering hunter to go to when he needs a DFP or shelter built?  Again, they're personnel of their own lives.

Just as the part in blue tries to explain, you're taking the sentiment personally.  Nobody is discrediting the skills of the individual hunter.  Neither do I dare to say hunters wouldn't fight for their own.  But they're not an army.  They're individual people.  If hunters are considered an army because they'd fight, then why wouldn't you just name the biggest army of all and pick all of the people in China.  Was owning a gun the qualifier for being a fighter, or do you have to harvest animals to qualify?  Couldn't anyone with a fist be a fighter?  If they're not organized, they're not an army.  It's simple.  Hunters certainly have backgrounds and most would certainly fight at home.  They're still not organized with required attendance to fulfill roles, and I still don't understand why you don't just say, "Americans:  318,900,000."  Why are hunters the only group of people that are considered an "army" that isn't an actual country's military?

In WWII the Us army did a study on the actually hits done by members of infantry squads and IIRD it was only around 10% of the soldiers could/would accurately and willingly place sights on a person and fire. What it came down to is that 90% of the people in the US couldn't bring themselves to the situation of "ok sight in on a person and pull the trigger" . Just to freak your self out and get a feeling for it take a a gun, unload it, point it at your foot and pull the trigger. WTF BBQ OMG you moron!!! Is what your saying right, but how is your foot more important that "that guy's" head. If killing people was easy to do mentally why do so many people NEVER talk about OIS? medals for heroism? "nam"? It is a traumatic event. The military instituted actual training about this, dehumanizing the enemy, silioutte shaped targets, non human nicknames(nips, japs, huns, VC, Charlie, and propaganda to the effect)   There is a reason that people defending their homes from attackers historically have had a significant win ratio when compared to attacker mental justification. Sniping from a distance would be pretty hard to do mentally when compared to stand up fight/hot blood situation p[particularly against support personnel vs fighters.

I would wager that hunters who had bagged a big game animal before would be better than 10% simply because they had prior mental preparation. Maybe up to 20% but still a very low percentage.

Same old stupid "everyone is too fat and stupid to fight" blah blah shit.

I guess all police, firefighters, construction workers, factory workers, athletes, hunters, etc, use hover rounds to do their daily tasks.

I guess "Air support" will go around bombing suburban neighborhoods that has homes every 100ft, and bombing bridges, and factories, and so on in the hopes of taking out the 10% that might fight who happens to be blended in with "neutral" people.

I guess all fighters will gather at one spot to be an easy target.



Reality. How do you stop the fat out of shape untrained normal person from shooting at aircraft while they sit on the tarmac with his bolt action rifle?
How do you stop him from car bombing the local water treatment plant?


Most of them are too stupid and not skilled enough to really get anything done.    

The people who ARE, are smart enough to know better, because they know dumb ass shit like that will bring EVERYONE down on them like stink on shit.




LOL, Only plane some seasonal hunter is going to be able to hit is little planes and the local strip...  because big boy airplanes are farther than 150 yards from the fence... which means their fixed 100 yard zero won't hit shit.


Most of the game I've shot here in the west has been farther than 100 yards. Most of my hunting riffles are set up assuming a point blank range of 290 yards. Besides only a fool would attack an airbase directly.

(snip for thumping of chest)
News flash.    



If you're posting on here, you're not an "average hunter" by ANY stretch of the imagination.  Anyone posting on here is an ultra minority of gun owners and is about the farthest thing from a representative sample as can be.

But how many of those would have the balls to stand up against a foreign military?
