Gulf War 1 was literally the king of all curbstomps and the Taliban fell just as fast to a swarm of CAS, even though they had the NWA completly surrounded.
Only Vietnam survived because surprise surprise they had a hefty mechanized supply line provided by the USSR via China.
Gulf 2 and the aftermath in Afghanistan was still a ridiculously long occupation that all hinged on the idea that the US no longer had any meaningful interest to commit resources and would eventually leave.
Point is, if you wanna go down the route of “I need 2A for an oppressive government”, you’ll quickly find yourself getting into the same situation as everyone else. Unless you form a side via a civil war, you’re gonna suffer heavy losses in the initial stage just like everyone else, and commit to long term attrition just like everyone else.









Nothing, i’m just saying that most people don’t understand this and don’t know that their individual skills with a firearm just won’t matter much if you don’t organize into a proper group with modern vehicles at your disposable.
Not saying it’s a bad idea in any way, but there’s a significant portion of the American community that I could not imagine being able to walk 10k despite stockpiling a platoon’s worth of ammo.
