Loadout: Rifleman vs Direct Action Kit
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 2024
- In this video, I attempt to explain the differences in what you might see on a rifleman’s gear list versus what you might see on a direct action team member’s gear list. 
It’s important to note that everything mentioned this video is a generalization.  for example, I use the word infantry kit on Instagram. It was immediately flamed because I didn’t include grenades, rocket launchers, beltfeds, etc. 
People often lose their grip on reality when they have something small they can focus on, especially if they have some experience with the topic. This video is not meant to be a perfect representation of what every single rifleman would use, or a perfect representation of what every single direct action team uses.
This video is really just meant to highlight the differences in equipment as the mission differs. It also shows how a rifleman is completely capable of direct action, and can/should be able to scale their equipment to perform conventional and special missions.
As always, this video is not meant to be the end all be all authority on this topic. It is simply meant to generate discussion for people that may have not thought further about the topic.

Miss your vids!
Plenty of "Direct Action" Missions have turned into overnighters or longer, always bring more than you need. Famous last words "We hit the target, in and out..."
Could not agree more
Water/electrolytes, nutritional calorie dense snacks, extra mags and some cold/wet weather gear are a good start. Water is always the essential
@@TacticoolVIKINGBeardOne of the reasons I have a thermal tarp strapped to the back of my plate carrier. Cover from elements as well as thermal optics.
@@petrimakela5978what thermal cover do you have?
@@jacklocco layered nylon/aluminium/nylon mesh
Oh, dang! Eight magazines and four liters of water? I can already hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth! 😂
Needs more mags, they are only one pound you should have like 20 or more
@@Kinetic.44or get a bunch of stripper clips, even lighter
First rule of night fighting is to assume everyone has night vision. People need to practice passive aiming as active aiming just gives your position away. Also check all of your gear under night vision to make sure nothing glows.
You all glow under my thermal clip on. 😂
The first rule of night fighting is to make sure your patrol base or safehouse is good to go so that you can go to sleep and not run on 2 hours of sleep everyday because F fighting at night or even moving through the woods from A to B at night.
@@originalpastaman5470 correct. A couple guys in good positions with thermal would absolutely decimate a team of dudes with NV trying to make a move on your place.
And easily
“Thank you boomers, no rockets 🚀 for me” lol
Love the COD 2019 vibes
Amazing to wear the French lizard camo
Been watching Mayor of Kingstown (great show) and now Jared looks like the SWAT sergeant
and they're both left handed!
We got rifles and we got men babyyy
During my time as an 0351, I constantly adjusted my gear to keep it as slim as possible. Initially, I used the issued double mag pouches, then switched to the 10-speed triple mag pouch, which eventually lost elasticity and had to be destroyed during the Yemen evacuation. Toward the end of my service, I used HSGI taco mag pouches. Now, I use Shaw Concepts quad mag carrier.
You ever lose a mag out of the tacos? I have 2 pistol and a single rifle taco on a belt. Haven't lost one yet but I'm constantly checking to make sure they're still there whenever I run.
@@johnc5330 with pistol yes but only because it wasn’t tightened enough. Other than that no problems…..but I also do constantly check.
This guy has no idea what he's talking about! Nothing will ever replace M81!
Love the video game gear selection screen
As always love the content! Keep it coming. Peace.
Love that camouflage.
One of the pattern I'll be getting.
Thanks for sharing.
Most of my gear has been altered to fit me. Chest rig to body armor.
Hopefully, your armor is more than a basic just front and rear plates...
@@Kinetic.44 it is
His whole point was a DA plate carrier isn’t going to be loaded the same way because what your intentions are, are likely different. Going fight? Plate carrier. Going patrol see what’s going on maybe little “recce” action. Cheat rig. Especially if you’re gunna be out for a while. The whole point is they’re 2 load outs for 2 “missions” or tasks. Merging them tends to be the worst of both not the best.
@@Kinetic.44 My plates are front and rear. I took my side plates and shot them to test the armor itself. Seemed smart at the time, and even now, I trust my plates to do what they need to. Utilize cover. Put shit that stops bullets in the door panels. If the door gets hit you won’t.
Stuff always makes up for
6 min mile 😊great content young man 🤙🤙🤙!!!!!!!
Love the insertion of the cool video and gear list 🤓👊
While I love any and all knowledge you guys produce, can you please continue the terminology, training, and tactics videos? Recommendations on places for Civilian training down here in FL?
Thanks for what you guys do. God bless.
FYI, Avon direct sells the FM54 to the general public now. There are some retailers that are carrying them now, like Galls.
I’ve subscribed to you 3x
Thank you.
That's how I always looked at it.
But there always day hike like the river trail and we did a few at wisky town with Jack and the puppers
Hahaha just stuff stuff stuff….lol so true. Keep at it
Cool
the c50 can still host a voice box and coms leads etc, the big difference is it doesnt have a positive/negative toggle for PAPR's
SOILEATER MENTIONED🔥🔥
YES!
The FM54 is available for civilian purchase from AVON its $878 you can’t get the vpu from them yet but it can be purchased on eBay the C50 also can take a VPU it’s the old one but you can equip a VPU to the C50
What perk gets you the primary, secondary, AND shotty?!
This question may be a little too hard to answer, but what would you say a good and slightly minimal kit for a starter would be?
I would suggest focusing on a good pistol, conceal carry, and train religiously with that. Get medical trauma intervention training and supplies and train with them too.
@@oriontraininggroupllc2782 Thanks.
Pistol, rifle. Bandolier, backpack, chest rig (even if it's just an Amazon special that holds a few rifle mags.), hopefully a belt to hang a pistol and rifle mag on. Fixed blade. Flashlight. Exercise and train. Hopefully you have at least 4 pistol mags to train with, you'll need at least 6 rifle mags just to start with your rifleman training. If you have actually no money, just run around with a bandolier. 550 cord to make a ghetto waist strap so it's not flying everywhere. You'll want another bandolier for your backpack. 6-9 magazines minimum really. Surplus double mag pouches are cheap. The triple mag shingles are cheap too. Another cheap way is with a FLC or other load bearing equipment. You absolutely need a poncho tarp and a canteen. Hopefully you can get a canteen cup. Medical gear is very important. That should be the first thing you buy with your first handgun. Basic medical response is easy. Practice. People talk useless bullshit. rhino rescue tourniquets work. I've been testing them for 4 years now. Don't let retards make you spend 40 bucks per tourniquet for your beginner/training setup. Packing gauze is cheap but you can bleach almost any cloth, now it's sterile. Trauma shears are important. Get a fannypack. Hopefully one with a small front pocket as well. You can tie your compass down into that pocket and throw medical in the main pocket.
Wow this is some next-level LARPing
COD MW2019 - Solid 👌
How do you carry the smoke grenade? I have the same chest rig and have been trying to get ideas of where one fits while carrying everything else I need
Shoulder straps have some good mounting potential. Bang hangers from a few different companies are good too. JTACtical solutions has some that I have used on other rigs.
It is the 2024th year of our lord, the light infantry vs shocktrooper loadout is still being discussed
The rubes will watch anything
People are so dense that they can’t tell their ass from a hole in the ground and need to be explained all the details of “mission dictates gear”. Part of what we provide is easy reference material like this to help get the point across.
@@oriontraininggroupllc2782 to quote the great warrior poet “Cube”.
I fux with it
Pissing off people who can’t read or hear. Too funny.
Do riflemen really need a sidearm?
Need is a relative term. On the whole, no probably not.
No. It’s the most useless thing you will have on you. A pistol and 2 mags weighs the same ish as 3 rifle mags.
They don’t get one. Maybe E5s and above that go out.
7:55 Yeah you don't need that stuff....just use a throat mike bro. For that matter, you don't need that fancy mask. Nothing wrong with the venerable MCU2P! $85 instead of $350! 12:00 HEH I was about to say: the ultimate breaching tool is 40mm HEDP 🙂
So… mission dictates gear. Got it.
Well believe or not a lot of civs with no military background think you dress up like a f in DEVGRU guy to do a long range patrol mission
@@notundermywatch3163 Dudes at that level prep for the mission at hand. So, yet again, mission dictates gear.
Civilian or not, you bring mission specific equipment in addition to a base loadout.
@@notundermywatch3163yea I’ve never seen that😂
Most of my time I wore a pajama top and gap chinos, addias forums on my feet.
What is the reason for putting your plate carrier under your field shirt?
Didn’t want the clash of camo patterns and bright white plates
"...the most controversial top I could find in my closet."
Now we all know that you own no Belgian Jigsaw tops.
At the time I did not, but now I do 😉
I been waiting white devils. Awesome video.
So this was a really long way to say:
“Direct Action means the Assault Element of a rifle unit.”
Why y'all waiting a whole day in advance?
Why aren’t you?!
A level of patience you don't understand.
CoD relaunched with a banger in 2019 and the follow-on games were trashhhh
Grug want unga bunga
Where's the akimbo loadout
RockSTAR ☄️☄️☄️😂😭🖤🖤
Genuinely curious. Why did those guys have to rip off their strobes and throw them away. Can’t the just … shut them off..?
Wouldn't it be better to draw enemy fire to a distraction?
@@oriontraininggroupllc2782 that’s a good point
What's the matter with stuff? He who dies with the most toys wins, so serious boomers like me need to really ramp up getting toys, since dying is our next great adventure, and it's coming soon! 😇😜
Wearing a lot more armor for direct action would be smart... look at SWAT.
That’s more of a department thing than anything. The extra armor they wear isn’t rifle-rated protection, and echoes archaic ideas from the early GWOT. You’re not likely to experience the same issues in the US
@@tristanhicks9824 plenty of shotguns throwing buckshot and PCCs using 9mm in the US. You can get level 4 rifles rated upper arms/shoulders (important, shots through the upper arm into thoracic cavity hapoen a lot) , forehead plates are made now and danglers are very basic. It's really not that hard to make something that has plate pockets...
@@Kinetic.44 but at what cost of weight? And a lot of those soft armors have dubious levels of protection at best. I’d rather be quick to maneuver with armor covering the thoracic cavity. Just my 2 cents, I’m not saying soft armor is bad through and through
Never go off what cops use.
Can we go back to calling it web gear like was doing since the 60s. 😅
thermal is king
Your advice on the ruck packing is definitely misleading. First off a ruck definitely needs to be more than 50 liters. The sustainment load needs to fit in there. Which can be altered because of someone’s fieldcraft experience. But it’s still going to take room. It’s going to take up almost all of that pack and we haven’t even begun to look at team equipment. Do you mean assault pack instead of ruck? I don’t want to sound like some keyboard warrior but people are definitely going to get the wrong idea.
Doesn’t matter, these people dress like this and go to a public range.
@@HWG-wm8ld what are you saying? I don’t understand what you’re getting at.
This is the cringiest tacticool shit I’ve seen on the internet to date. Congrats.
Sorry to crush your narrative but "Boomers" had nothing to do with the NFA or Gun Control Act. I was 13 years old in 1968 when that law was passed. Before you make a sweeping indictment of a generation, do some research.
Boomers did it
Yeah the NFA was passed in '34. I don't know you but that might have been before even your parents' time.
Boomers also have a poor sense of humor🫵🌞
Well they sure never did anything to repeal it, did they? There's also the Clinton's assault weapon ban that came through under boomers watch, as well as that commie Reagan who boomers love that made full autos near unobtainable for the average civilian. I guess what I'm trying to say is he's right. Thankfully us millenials doing the best job at getting gun control scrapped compared to anyone before us.
