I bet I wasn't the only one who looked next to the bed at the rifle on standby while watching this. Great points and solid advice. Keep em coming and I'll keep watching.

Times change. Bought a very nice ar15, Aero Precision, for $550 during the glut of supply and low demand. Timing is everything. Training to learn how to use it? $50 per hour, 5 hour class, professionals. Follow on classes, 3 more levels same same hours and money. Weapon acquisition, ante. Training, $1,000. Plus ammo. Reid, I totally respect you. Emphasize price of training and it's value. You have the cred to address it.

Here's another option. Have multiple weapons in multiple calibers for those times when ammo might be scarce or overpriced ( like in 2020 ) Train with each, stock up on ammo, mags etc. When times get tough and lawlessness becomes widespread, you and your neighbors can protect your neighborhood. Very good video Reid, all SOLID points.

Solid advice.

I prefer my SKS. I love surplus weapons.
-
My $500 wasr works just great. Even put together slightly crooked. Never had a failure with steel case ammo or any of the 3 different mags that I run. Puts the lead down range and on target.
-
My time with the M16 really left a bad taste in my mouth for the AR style. First weapon I ever bought was an AK, reliable, and accurate enough for what I need it for, up to 300m's with iron sights.
-
I just spent $519.00 plus tax on a Smith and Wesson M&P AR15 Sport II. The prices for good guns have come down a little.

The way I choose my rifle was to find one that came close to what I had in the Army. I choose civilian version Colt LE6920 M4 Carbine. Bought it back in Dec 2012 and it cost me over $1,200.00.The rifle is worth every penny and glad I bought it. This rifle came very close to what I had and the only difference is my civilian M4 carbine cannot fire three round burst. Everything else on the rifle is the same. So no learning curb when it came to using the weapon and cleaning it.

This is my rifle: there are many like it, but this one is mine.

built a rifle for 500 from the ground up, same parts used on the mcx and ruger ar15s. im in college and this is reliable. 3000 rounds downrange with no issues or malfunctions. 800 bucks in it with light, mags, optic, irons, and sling. watched all of your vids and they are great with good information.

My $175 Marlin 30-30 will have to do.

You're the man,Reid. I really enjoy your demeanor toward others.

AWESOME VIDEO I have been a Saiga 7.62 man since I bought my first one for $125 out the door, USN Retired

I have an AR-15 on the main floor in my bedroom. I have an AK-47 In the basement. Both have 5 loaded magazines ready to go. I also always have an M&P 9 on me with two spare mags and various stuff in other rooms. I really need to mount a flashlight on them though. I can't rely on my hand held lights, and possibly forget it or fumble using it or not be able to properly control the weapon.

Haven't been on YouTube in a while, but man the channel has grown and your content is outstanding. This is one of my favorite channels out there. Love hearing you talk and teach about things. Can't wait to train with you one day. Very goo video Reid! Keep up the great work man!
-
The best caliber is the one you are most effective with.
-
I love how you truly keep it simple Reid, well done!
-
My first AR was a POF Renegade plus, worth every penny. Got a a great deal on it too.

Reid, I just want you to know how glad I am to see you starting your own business. The morals behind your teaching are top notch. Good luck in your future endeavors. As soon as I can afford to ill be coming down for your classes. Semper Fi brother.
