    This is good, but my concern and critique of the SRA and other left wing gun related communities/subreddits has been how they eventually just turn into “what should I buy/hey check out what I just bought” types of discussions.

    I ran a virtual dry fire program during the pandemic with my local SRA and basic proficiency was … lacking.

    Like everyone paid lip service to dry fire and practice but, I don’t know it just didn’t really seem to go very far.

    I’ll hang out in this community and try and contribute what I know.

    I like this chart generally but I would worry about layering it in such a strict way because it could prevent someone from doing something that is practical for them simply because its further up the chart on what to get

    Quick example set because I feel like this dosent make sense how I said it

    Say someone is In a state/location that restricts pistol ownership but not bolt action rifles, then it would be more practical to get a rifle or even more restrictive and you can’t get rifles say then get medical training , survival skills and a radio license.

    Another example is mesh nodes, you can get a heltecv3 or something for like 30$ So I dont see why it is in the tier below a multi thousands dollar nvg

    Basically get what you can and dont go for night fighting before you can hit shit in the day but still get any of those basic skills no matter where they show up as long as they are obtainable by you.

    But this chart would be amazing for basic training given out by a specific chapter or as a baseline for any organized group but as an example for an individual I feel that level of structure could be detrimental to education
