Not good for opsec, but this thread might be helpful for everyone; we’ve got a lot of knowledgable gun nerds on here. I don’t think I’ve ever held a firearm in my life but it’s time for me to get trained and git good at firing at random objects. So what would be the course of action for me, a silo’d individual in rural new England? How do I get a license? Which gun should I get (ngl I want the HK MK23) How do I get better at it, and at selfdefense?

The best OpSec practice is to assume that all orgs have been infiltrated by the feds.

Go for the training. Don't talk in a way that could get you dragged off to some dungeon or before a judge. Beware of anyone who encourages others to take things to the next level. Don't share recipes for how to make IEDs.

You'll be fine, just keep your head on your shoulders and guard your words. (Also maybe consider Pink Pistols or whatever the successor org is?)
