@Ivan Strader I disagree - it's all about mindset and scope. On PC, it *can be* great for focusing on theory (especially without some distractions that field training may have), planning and leadership skills. One has to realize the both limitations and advantages of said tools and apply them correctly. a shit attitude in the best training environment will still result in sub-part skill attainment.
@Ivan Strader You seem to mis-understand the wide variety of people that exist in the world and their hobbies. Games and Sims when used in the right setting have plenty of uses - again, when used in the right frame of mind. Programs such as Games to Grunts as well as Sim enabled Exposure therapy also say otherwise. I mean - I've served. So I'd say I know a thing or two. There are entire veteran communities out there that use such things as KAT Medical to better iterate TCCC concepts. Like most things, video games *can* be a tool, it entirely depends on how you use it. I shouldn't really have to point out that VBS, the professional; big brother version of Arma is in use with more than 25+ militaries around the world.
@Ivan Strader Congrats, no need to be a dick though - and no I mean, KAT Medical; the mod, since Arma is largely a sandbox, and mods are additional tools. You're extrapolating and expecting excessive results beyond the limitations of the tool in this case. No one said, PC games makes anyone a "warrior". What I'm saying - is you're over simplifying and over generalizing. Limitations exist in all forms. It does in MilSim in the airsoft aspect, as is does in training in all forms. Combat is the most encompassing teacher (but not the most efficient), but that's not always an option for everybody and also introduces some undesirable risks. I'm also a rated flight instructor, and I 100% agree with the old adage that the aircraft makes for a terrible classroom - There are certain things that are better/can be taught in a different environment. *edit* - Also, Americas Army back in the day had a pretty thorough training for first aid and casualty triage. KAT Medical - adds everything from Airway Management (Pneumothorax, tension pneumothorax and Hemopneumothorax), through surgery concepts down to Alpha Factors and a pH system.
I told my fellow military friends in law enforcement friends about this 14 years ago and all they did was say that's ridiculous... so I trained anyway... I got good at my craft and use it in the real world ironically finally there using this training simulation to benefit their skills
If I even mention Airsoft mil-sim or CQB (which i have) to some of the gun community as a training tool, i generally get negative feedback or just get ignored. Thanks for driving the point home.
They got some valid points tho. Airsoft turns concealment into cover (which means if the bb hits a bush or fence you may not get hit at all but same cannot be considered for bullet) and since the projectile velocity is so low (max FPS i have ever seen is 330 for cqb) so you don't hurt anybody in theory.) it cannot get very far. Max distance I know is 30 35 meters... at the finest. What I'm saying is, they are not completely wrong. But since you cannot shoot an alive person with a live round (unless you are Russian, I have seen their confidence drills in a video by Larry Vickers and the guy shoots another guy who wears a plate carrier, with a 9mm FMJ ball round, in the vest.) airsoft makes sense.
@@burhanettinhasdemir4964 30-35 meters? I've seen airsoft pistols capable of hitting a man sized target with reasonable accuracy even at 50 meters. And there are some sniper rifles that can hit someone up to a 100 meters, but that's really pushing it. As for the other limitations, then all training systems also have their own issues and turn concealment into cover all the time. It doesn't matter if you use airsoft, simmunitions or MILES, you always have to face boundaries, so it's just "pick your poison" kind of situation. Airsoft is definitely the cheapest and most accessible option and that's why it's so great for training.
I must say as someone who has been getting ready for years you guy's are on point. You really hit home with what you are saying. I can't wait to see what else you all have for us.

Please God, let this channel blow up and take off. I have followed you two for years, and I did milsim for about 15, and this is so refreshing to watch. GG boys.
@@Valorius i'll have to agree with you - also when it's SHTF all the ethics go out of the window - what happens when you're raiding against barricaded enemies and there are civilians in the mix?? reality is there are some people who will kill anyone and everything just to get a peek inside... besides - i get they are making a video but taking ground like that would be a much slower and more methodical process . especially when you're risking receiving fatal fire..
I've done a lot of room clearing with flagged/safe weapons and airsoft. Super useful for learning how to move and cover angles with a team. It is a very good training method for cqb.
I've been playing airsoft for years and everytime I hit the field I'm reminded that training my body and with my gear does make a difference. When I first started, it was just for fun. But I was fat (still am, but everyday getting better) and was getting winded and tired. I went to a milsim last year after a ton of training and losing some weight. Luckily, it was enough to do pretty good. I still got some heat sickness though. It was 94 degrees F out all day and I did not eat properly and drink enough water on the day of. I drank tons for the month before, but I did not properly hydrate the day of. That taught me a lesson. In combat, you don't just have to manage your gear, you gotta manage your body. Also, for any of you new guys trying to get into airsoft, if money isn't a problem and you REALLY want a realistic gun experience get a Gas Blowback Rifle (GBBR). It has a realistic cycling bolt and realistic mag capacity at 30. Be warned though, you can't really use it in the winter cause the gas airsoft guns use doesn't work in cold temps.
I don’t comment at all on any videos. But…this has moved me to. I’ve found my people here. Thank you. This has given me the inspiration I’ve needed. Keep it up. Proud to call myself a “dirty civilian”!!

This Dirty Civ movement gives me the best chills down my spine. I'm genuinely proud of you guys for bringing this kind of train of thought to our attention. History will rhyme again and you guys are doing your best to prepare humanity for it, thank you and God Bless you all 🤝🏼🙏🏼

Not only are you sharing real information but the videography and editing is excellent and very professional. I’ve been saying the same thing about airsoft for years and most guy guys blow me off. It’s great to see more and more big name TH-camrs encourage it as a viable training tool.
Garand thumb and blue Jean operator are a couple off the top of my head that are both prior military and I believe were both pretty elite that practice with air soft and show the younger crowd battle drills and how to actually fight. They always dominate too in air soft. But they both have videos. You can also set up your air soft rifle just the same as your battle rifle and in some cases the company that makes your favorite rifle also makes a copy for airsoft. If anything guys use airsoft for this. Use it for putting miles on gear. Testing your gear in the field. Find out that something doesn’t work for you like you thought it did. Test out that new holster and assault pack or weapon mounted light so on and so forth. It’s really great for that
I have done one day events with an armor steel shield to see how practical it might be with all the usual equipment and, yes, the weight does add up if you're trying to run around all day. Although, I would never really find out how to adapt with something weird like that unless I got really expensive training, which would be ideal if I had the time and money, but it sure beats finding out the hard way. I know airsoft doesn't need real ballistic sheilds and plates but it's important to know the limitations of your gear and how to work around it. For example, a handheld sheild might be useful for a quick response around home if a plate carrier cannot be put on quick enough or to hand off to family to barricade a doorway or if you respond to an urban business in places that do not allow open carry firearms. Or maybe I'm just retarded and spent too much for an armored doorstop lol

I attended my first MilSim West event last weekend. Attended, not completed. I thought my kit was sorted. I thought I had my rucking down. I got my butt handed to me fast, I found hundreds of tiny issues that added up to me being in excruciating pain in hours. Now, two months to prepare for the next one.
I've attended and completed 2 MSWs so far. What stuck out to me was how little kit you actually need to "survive" 40 hours. The most difficult part, in my opinion, is the lack of sleep. 90% of "surviving" a MSW event is all mindset.
That's the biggest take way from milsim west. Knowing what prep you need, what is weighing you down, what you are missing, what is comfortable to wear, how many socks you need, toilet paper, snacks, how much water you need, how long can you be uncomfortable (sleeping in your own sweat), etc. It definitely puts you in a different mindset and brings you down to earth
As a guy who is into firearms and is just getting into airsoft in hopes of going to milsim events this spoke to me in every way. How I have been building up my airsoft guns to match the real steel down to optics, lights, peq15 this just gave me positive reinforcement to how I am approaching this entire thing. Thanks!
Dont be afraid to wear real plates too. Alot of guys at MilSim West wear them and helmets, in exchange the event staff give them 2 “revive” tourniquets as opposed to 1. It helps get you used to your gear and how you should run it. Airsoft honestly is a great tool at configuring and fitting your kit

I really appreciate you guys reinforcing this idea, and changing my mind about airsoft. I’ve been wanting to do something since I got out of the Corps to keep positive training habits, and after this video I know that I have an option to do that now.
Like the straight forward approach here zero BS. I didn’t have this type of training in military outside of rifle and pistol qualification. I’m 55 and wish I had.

Day one. Sunday the 26th 2023. Woke, Made a cup of Joe, Sat down to enjoy that. I sleep with TH-cam on. Usually it's a black screen with Blizzard or Thunderstorms. So I go to home page and the first thing that catches my eye, "What is Dirty Civilian".. Watched it and now just started Mil-Sim.. I'm 52 and have to say so far I'm am incredibly inspired and intrigued. Aside from my day job, I have been paying close attention from as many different perspectives what's going on in politics, culture, foreign, domestic policy and events. I've been doing this since shortly after 911. My first passion was of course re-learning some history to try and figure out how the US ended up being attacked on the day. I was less than one hundred miles as the crow flies from ground zero, Stuck on an Island at work when the planes hit the buildings. Second was becoming a legacy media watchdog and learning more about the history of the legacy media, Because something felt off how everything was being covered. Also knowing that a Country and a People can only survive and live free and prosperous if they're informed properly. It's been an incredibly surreal twenty plus years to say the least. Throughout that time the bulk of my time has been building up my network of independent media/journalists, trying to find those representatives that seem to see what's happening to this amazing country and are working to try and save it. Trying to spread the message and get others to take notice and an interest. To encourage others to please break from the traditional propaganda outlets and dig deeper to get closer tot the truth of what's going on. Anyone that's also tried this probably can attest that it can be a very lonely place breaking from the mainstream culture and not just accepting the usual authorities. So far what you guys are doing at DC is spot on. I dig your commitment and passion for Truth, The scriptures and our Lord Jesus Christ, The fact that you encourage men to constantly THINK. Not just to take a trip to an event and go hot once you've arrived. You go hot the minute you decided to go and approach it as a mission. First thing I thought was instead of finding the quickest root to the event, Treat it as an occupation and that the main roads would be watched and to instead navigate through back roads off the beaten path. Use old school navigation. I live in New England in a small town on a family homestead passed down from my grandfather to his kids where we all have homes spread out on a combined 25 acres. Blessed to be raised around do it yourself men and women, To have chosen a life of working as many trades as I can rather than choosing one career, That the care of Family, Friends, Community, Country and our planet is paramount and that there is no higher purpose than service to others. Service not Slavery. I am older but am in total support so far of what you are doing and am going to pay close attention and share what you have to offer. My brother and I have been on each other to get back out in the woods and I want to start sharing learning more and sharing survival skills with my 12 year old daughter. I don't want to sound demeaning but It's sad to witness just how incapable todays young men have become, At least from what I've witnessed around where I live and those that have come and gone in my field of work in the Tree Service Industry. Time to put some time in money into the FJ getting it back up to snuff and start selecting gear in preparation. I have a lot of gear and experience in outdoor survival but not from the military tactical perspective. Probably not going to get too far in modern warfare with a lever action 30 30.. Keep up the great work, Thanks for taking a stand and God Bless..
You guys are crushing it. You guys have been an inspiration to me for a long while now. I'm stoked to see how you guys have grown and am excited to see what's in store for you. 👍🏻👍🏻
I am so filled with happiness, motivation, and excitement for the future because of this channel. You are being both education, yea, but also something that I think a lot of the gun community is missing that Dirty Civilian fills the gap in: purpose. You are providing a lot of purpose to people by your content. Keep going and don’t stop.
Now THATS some serious stuff, I'M really glad you made it clear and official on your chanell for everyone, I spent 18 years on my Airsoft hobby, and always said to my friends, if i have oportunity to train using airsoft replica, it should replicate training with a real firearm. it makes no harm to anyone, only adds adidional knowledge in case IF. Navigation, Communication, Survival, Hunting, Shooting, Tactics and overall prep stuff, should be learned by much more ppl, especially right now. Better be prepared at minimum to what may come and it never comes, than be bare naked and got wiped out bcos you wasn't prepared... Great Video! thanks!
Tuning in from north west Arkansas. Amazing to see what you guys stand for and what you are built off of. Your foundation is strong and carried by your faith. You have my support no doubt thank you. You guys are changing things for the good of the people. I love your mission and hope one day to be apart of something similar! There is still hope! Still figuring out my calling and I am drawn to this way of life/industry. Keep up your knowledge transfer guys!
The quality in your videos is just simply amazing. Don't focus on your subscriber count (Not that I think you are), keep the quality coming and everything else when fall in place. With the way the boarder has been getting, and not knowing what bad people are coming in. This is a good wake up call.

This is the America I want to live in! Thank you for the time invested in this video. I appreciate you guys a lot!
This is amazing yet again! I hear yall mention COD or Warzone close to the end, and on the subject of training, if yall have not tried it, pick up a quest 2 vr, buy Onward and Ghost of Tabor. They can help engrain that movement, communication, planning and other things far better than say COD and the immersion is second to none in the gaming world. I know it sounds crazy but seriously give it a try. Alot of real world training translates well to those titles and as i said it can help get those reps and engrain the movements like clearing a room or even just comms. Watched through most your vids in the last couple days! Moment of silence for Nicholas Jones
As someone who's done airsoft and milsim for about 18 years now... I personally can say it has helped withing my current career as well. I learned fantastic communication skills, navigation, how to appropriately use coms, firing while moving in multi directional fassets, how to safely pie corners and how to safely breach windows, doors and doors. I also learned how to identify cornerfed and center fed rooms, I learned situational awareness, and also how to combat tunnel vision. Not to mention the fitness it helped me maintain. The sport is worth it
You guys have given me a completely different view of all the larpers out there. I may never join you (or maybe I will) but I will at least have a new respect for what you do.
Guys, You are amazing, I am enthusiastic of Airsoft MilSim and your perspective was really amazing, and aligned with what I use do have fun and "sharp the axe"!! Congrats, I am a huge fan!!👏
26:40 Know the limitations of your weapon system and work around them to accomplish your task. The principal still applies with your standard kit. Great video. I look forward to seeing what comes next.
New to the channel, and massively impressed so far. Commenting today as im a UK based airsofter, with over 20 years playing, 16 of those attending games that are more milsim based. We're very lucky that we have access to MOD OBUA ( operrations in built up areas) facilities, which adds that extra level of realism. Events run 24 -36 hours, and depending on your choice of sides depends on the facilities youll have in game. As a die hard OPFOR player we dont have the luxuries of electricity and running water the oppo have, so, as youve mentioned.more forward planning comes into play before the event starts. With some events theres also an element of roleplay involved, interaction with civ pop and task force players. I could go on for hours as to the ins and outs of the events, but instead ill share a video from a recent event, which gives a good look into the shennanigans we get up to. Keep up the great work, guys, look forward to seeing the channel grow. th-cam.com/video/u2brQTFXO6k/w-d-xo.html
You guys rock. An inspiration. I’m out training every weekend. I watch you guys and it gives me hope that there are others out there like me. Keep up the great content. I’ll keep watching.
Thanks for giving this to the world! Doing a grand job of informing people like me who want to be more prepared but don't know how or what the next step that would actually yield improvements.
Having a Gas-Blowback Rifle helps… Their not cheap but they do add some snappy mechanical experience as well as enough recoil to transition over to a real firearm. If you own blank firearms, some Mil-sims allow it. You can setup your own scenario with Simunition rounds, have a big group of buddies or family members to train against will help also.
Can’t tell you how grateful I am to see other people with the same passions. Isolation is the devils playground, seeing this is encouraging. More, please.
You do realize that in this fictional red dawn / invasion USA war scenario you're all getting ready for you're going to end up fighting each other on sight?
Man I haven't got goosebumps about something like this for awhile this gives me a ton of hope for the community. Thank you for sharing the knowledge and outcomes of your training experiences. Keep up the great content. 🙏
Intro gave me chills. I hope that never happens in our country, but if it does, we need to be as prepared as possible. That includes training in our kit.
My local friends and I went to our first milsim event right out of high school around 10 years ago. We met a great group of guys that are a state away from us but we have all become ridiculously close friends and plan to go to different events throughout the year together. Those are my guys, wouldn’t trade them for anything.
This channel is gonna get really big. Airsoft community used to just have to try and be like operators. Now with this channel appealing straight to them looking* the same as operators... this may get bigger than any other "like" channel. THey got the good editing, expenisve gear, and the proper rhetoric to appeal to this scene. Good for them!
I'll admit , I haven't ever thought about Airsoft like you guys just conveyed it.. I knew some guys used them in their self-defense classes , just as they do with Blue Ammo. ... I greatly appreciate the different perspective . 👍 I'm sure I'll be searching Airsoft online tonight, lol... Thanks for the video, Great job!
In the military, we trained flaged weapons in a glass room ( tape on the floor ) till we couldn't get it wrong, then moved to an empty room, then empty house, blankbad guy in empty room, house, furniture in room, house, bad guy with furniture in room, house and months later a live shoot house. Number 1 man is never wrong on entry ( path of least resistance). The slow is quick fast is dead. Remember you have the rest of your life to clear that house. And we did use green gas training weapons sometimes. And it takes 1000 repetitions for your body to start to understand the movement. It takes millions to make muscle memory. And I definitely agree train as you fight.
If you're anywhere near Memphis, sing up for T1G's Op4 roles and get paid to train. There's an event happening March 7th-10th that still has a few openings.
Awesome content keep it up. Spot on with the concept you prepare every day every minute. A soon to be 62-year-old kind of a lone wolf in my town, but I keep working every day to learn to get better be ready and encourage my sons, both ex guardsmen, and everybody that has sensibility, that I speak to it for nothing else than peace of mind be prepared thank you
Airsoft is a very fun hobby, it quickly became a gateway to real steel shooting and preparedness for me. All the cringe aside it is an excellent training tool... everything is a learning experience in these milsims, most people won't admit it but it really comes down to the mindset. You can run around with an HPA or AEG and just sling plastic all day for fun... but for the concerned citizen it can easily become viable option for force-on-force training, moving under fire, small unit tactics, CQB, sustainment, comms and so much more. Most of which is just the flat range training but wayy more enhanced and dynamic. There are plenty of videos from MSW or the huge european games where they have technicals and large camping excursions. When you're in the big AO's you really start to learn about sustainment and whether your kit is sorted. Food, hydration, extra batteries, sleeping bags, toiletries, extra clothes, bb's and gas, all of this becomes a huge factor to consider and is very transferrable to other activities like hiking and camping.. I always imagine the 24hr+ milsims as an awesome camping trip with guns. Keeps me positive about the whole thing and I know I can learn a lot when I'm out there either alone or with my team. The biggest limiting factor in airsoft... are the guns themselves. In simplest terms, you are a grown dude playing dress up and shooting toy guns at eachother. If you can understand that and still move forward using the mindset of being a 'dirty civilian' and realize the training value it has, you will go a long way... That's why airsoft is an excellent tool for CQB training, they wont hit shit at range but for room clearing, interior movement, breaching, pieing you name it, airsoft can provide that. Obviously the caveats are cover/concealment and bullet penetration, but at the same time you are shooting a 6mm projectile so the notion of aim small, miss small in a CQB environment definitely applies.
I absolutely love the amount of training you and your team are doing. The amount of skill it takes to do what you ask are doing, is not easy, so, good on you all. But I will tell you something ,that most don't think of. Psychological. As a combat vet,I will tell you that that, is gonna hurt more people, then people think. While you can't train for 100%, you must train you brain for the things you will see and be called to do. Sign up for a SERE school. Go out in the woods and hunt. Ride along with a local ambulance company or fire department or a local law enforcement. The amount of things you will see and do, in a shtf evolution, well, let's just say, I hope it doesn't come to it. Keep it up guys, keep adding to your toolbox.
You guys are clearly on my level with the use of mil-sim and motorcycling to prepare for the worst. While I haven't been to any airsoft events, I have been to some large paintball events, including mag-fed only. I also play Squad and Arma 3 a lot with a curved ultra-wide monitor and, for Arma 3, a TrackIR motion-tracking controller. That's how I've been getting any combat experience for the last 4 years. It cost a pretty penny in the short run but it has saved me a lot of money over the last several years. I've been getting an itch for some physical shootouts lately though.
i love milsim, done a few events that were a lot of fun, but also realised i would probably be dead if i did live fire training with the people i was with.

@Ivan Strader I disagree - it's all about mindset and scope. On PC, it *can be* great for focusing on theory (especially without some distractions that field training may have), planning and leadership skills. One has to realize the both limitations and advantages of said tools and apply them correctly.
a shit attitude in the best training environment will still result in sub-part skill attainment.
@Ivan Strader
You seem to mis-understand the wide variety of people that exist in the world and their hobbies.
Games and Sims when used in the right setting have plenty of uses - again, when used in the right frame of mind. Programs such as Games to Grunts as well as Sim enabled Exposure therapy also say otherwise.
I mean - I've served. So I'd say I know a thing or two. There are entire veteran communities out there that use such things as KAT Medical to better iterate TCCC concepts. Like most things, video games *can* be a tool, it entirely depends on how you use it. I shouldn't really have to point out that VBS, the professional; big brother version of Arma is in use with more than 25+ militaries around the world.
@Ivan Strader Congrats, no need to be a dick though - and no I mean, KAT Medical; the mod, since Arma is largely a sandbox, and mods are additional tools. You're extrapolating and expecting excessive results beyond the limitations of the tool in this case. No one said, PC games makes anyone a "warrior".
What I'm saying - is you're over simplifying and over generalizing.
Limitations exist in all forms. It does in MilSim in the airsoft aspect, as is does in training in all forms. Combat is the most encompassing teacher (but not the most efficient), but that's not always an option for everybody and also introduces some undesirable risks.
I'm also a rated flight instructor, and I 100% agree with the old adage that the aircraft makes for a terrible classroom - There are certain things that are better/can be taught in a different environment.
*edit* - Also, Americas Army back in the day had a pretty thorough training for first aid and casualty triage.
KAT Medical - adds everything from Airway Management (Pneumothorax, tension pneumothorax and Hemopneumothorax), through surgery concepts down to Alpha Factors and a pH system.
I told my fellow military friends in law enforcement friends about this 14 years ago and all they did was say that's ridiculous...
so I trained anyway...
I got good at my craft and use it in the real world
ironically finally there using this training simulation to benefit their skills
If I even mention Airsoft mil-sim or CQB (which i have) to some of the gun community as a training tool, i generally get negative feedback or just get ignored. Thanks for driving the point home.
They got some valid points tho. Airsoft turns concealment into cover (which means if the bb hits a bush or fence you may not get hit at all but same cannot be considered for bullet) and since the projectile velocity is so low (max FPS i have ever seen is 330 for cqb) so you don't hurt anybody in theory.) it cannot get very far. Max distance I know is 30 35 meters... at the finest. What I'm saying is, they are not completely wrong. But since you cannot shoot an alive person with a live round (unless you are Russian, I have seen their confidence drills in a video by Larry Vickers and the guy shoots another guy who wears a plate carrier, with a 9mm FMJ ball round, in the vest.) airsoft makes sense.
@@burhanettinhasdemir4964 30-35 meters? I've seen airsoft pistols capable of hitting a man sized target with reasonable accuracy even at 50 meters. And there are some sniper rifles that can hit someone up to a 100 meters, but that's really pushing it. As for the other limitations, then all training systems also have their own issues and turn concealment into cover all the time. It doesn't matter if you use airsoft, simmunitions or MILES, you always have to face boundaries, so it's just "pick your poison" kind of situation. Airsoft is definitely the cheapest and most accessible option and that's why it's so great for training.
I must say as someone who has been getting ready for years you guy's are on point. You really hit home with what you are saying. I can't wait to see what else you all have for us.

Hi
Hi

Please God, let this channel blow up and take off. I have followed you two for years, and I did milsim for about 15, and this is so refreshing to watch. GG boys.
@@gsactotube sorry, Please Bob?
@@gsactotube Dude this channel glows so hard it attracts moths.
@@Valorius i'll have to agree with you - also when it's SHTF all the ethics go out of the window - what happens when you're raiding against barricaded enemies and there are civilians in the mix?? reality is there are some people who will kill anyone and everything just to get a peek inside... besides - i get they are making a video but taking ground like that would be a much slower and more methodical process . especially when you're risking receiving fatal fire..
@@Sneed1488v2 It is patently obvious why it glows. But keep on keepin' on, LARPer.
The MilSim footage is amazing. Where everyone was running towards the building looked better than most movies.
I've done a lot of room clearing with flagged/safe weapons and airsoft. Super useful for learning how to move and cover angles with a team. It is a very good training method for cqb.
I've been playing airsoft for years and everytime I hit the field I'm reminded that training my body and with my gear does make a difference.
When I first started, it was just for fun. But I was fat (still am, but everyday getting better) and was getting winded and tired.
I went to a milsim last year after a ton of training and losing some weight.
Luckily, it was enough to do pretty good. I still got some heat sickness though.
It was 94 degrees F out all day and I did not eat properly and drink enough water on the day of.
I drank tons for the month before, but I did not properly hydrate the day of.
That taught me a lesson. In combat, you don't just have to manage your gear, you gotta manage your body.
Also, for any of you new guys trying to get into airsoft, if money isn't a problem and you REALLY want a realistic gun experience get a Gas Blowback Rifle (GBBR). It has a realistic cycling bolt and realistic mag capacity at 30. Be warned though, you can't really use it in the winter cause the gas airsoft guns use doesn't work in cold temps.
Yeah, this channel is gunna be big.
As long as you guys keep going.
I don’t comment at all on any videos. But…this has moved me to. I’ve found my people here. Thank you. This has given me the inspiration I’ve needed. Keep it up. Proud to call myself a “dirty civilian”!!
OK fed.
@@nomorerainbows Ok then…
@@Opisthocoelicaudia2 Either you're a fed or you're a complete dupe.
Channels with 42k views and 3 videos that are 3 weeks old with professional level production values dont just drop out of the damn sky. This channel is an obvious honey pot.
I've been many years on Airsoft, never shoot a gun, and this video almost brings me to tears, couldn't be more proud of my sport. You nailed it with this video.
This Dirty Civ movement gives me the best chills down my spine. I'm genuinely proud of you guys for bringing this kind of train of thought to our attention. History will rhyme again and you guys are doing your best to prepare humanity for it, thank you and God Bless you all 🤝🏼🙏🏼
Dude this fking channel glows. Are you serious? This is the most cringe fedbot BS I have ever read.

@@bullheadedgideon1673 Do you know what "it glows" even means?
@@bullheadedgideon1673 It definitely screams fed
@@bullheadedgideon1673 There are many good private trainers that you can seek out and get training, My purpose here is to let gullible fellow citizens know that hey....you're on a honey pot site. I don't like seeing my fellow defense minded citizens get entrapped by the government.
Not only are you sharing real information but the videography and editing is excellent and very professional. I’ve been saying the same thing about airsoft for years and most guy guys blow me off. It’s great to see more and more big name TH-camrs encourage it as a viable training tool.
Garand thumb and blue Jean operator are a couple off the top of my head that are both prior military and I believe were both pretty elite that practice with air soft and show the younger crowd battle drills and how to actually fight. They always dominate too in air soft. But they both have videos. You can also set up your air soft rifle just the same as your battle rifle and in some cases the company that makes your favorite rifle also makes a copy for airsoft. If anything guys use airsoft for this. Use it for putting miles on gear. Testing your gear in the field. Find out that something doesn’t work for you like you thought it did. Test out that new holster and assault pack or weapon mounted light so on and so forth. It’s really great for that
I have done one day events with an armor steel shield to see how practical it might be with all the usual equipment and, yes, the weight does add up if you're trying to run around all day. Although, I would never really find out how to adapt with something weird like that unless I got really expensive training, which would be ideal if I had the time and money, but it sure beats finding out the hard way.
I know airsoft doesn't need real ballistic sheilds and plates but it's important to know the limitations of your gear and how to work around it. For example, a handheld sheild might be useful for a quick response around home if a plate carrier cannot be put on quick enough or to hand off to family to barricade a doorway or if you respond to an urban business in places that do not allow open carry firearms. Or maybe I'm just retarded and spent too much for an armored doorstop lol
The importance of AARs can’t be overstated. Thank you doing an AAR of this event.
The production level is so damn high it’s absolutely amazing seeing this kind of content and this level of knowledge transfer going on channels like this should be encouraged and acknowledged for the much needed work they are doing good on you brothers as soon as I saw the first video and mission statement I felt immense joy knowing that this will only grow we collectively thank you both for doing this Bellum romanum boys Bellum romanum🔜
i mean theyre connected with Trex Arms and the best of them guntubers so i already expected it
@@2crakd I assumed by there whole attitude towards civilian training and honestly the film style and filter lol I’m here for all of it though there going to be up there as far as sub count before summer pretty dope it seems like there going to be geared towards long form content which is what we all want
42k subs in 3 weeks.....professional production quality.....came out of nowhere. This channel GLOWS like the sun.
This channel is something that is necessary for the survival of our community. This, whether we meet conflict or not, is the message all free men must here. I’m so proud of you boys, and can’t wait to see what you put out. If you need anything hit me up, I’d love to help on the back end.
I attended my first MilSim West event last weekend. Attended, not completed.
I thought my kit was sorted. I thought I had my rucking down. I got my butt handed to me fast, I found hundreds of tiny issues that added up to me being in excruciating pain in hours.
Now, two months to prepare for the next one.
I've attended and completed 2 MSWs so far. What stuck out to me was how little kit you actually need to "survive" 40 hours. The most difficult part, in my opinion, is the lack of sleep. 90% of "surviving" a MSW event is all mindset.
That's the biggest take way from milsim west. Knowing what prep you need, what is weighing you down, what you are missing, what is comfortable to wear, how many socks you need, toilet paper, snacks, how much water you need, how long can you be uncomfortable (sleeping in your own sweat), etc.
It definitely puts you in a different mindset and brings you down to earth
My pack gets five pounds lighter every game
@@danielconquer909 so far...I lost 11 pounds out of my kit, 8 of it from the ruck for the next event.
Awesome to see how fast the channel’s growing, can’t wait to see where it goes but I think it’s gonna be a wild ride for you guys. Best of luck!
thats what botted views are for lmfaooo
Dude you got to be kidding me. This is a honey pot fed boi channel.
As a guy who is into firearms and is just getting into airsoft in hopes of going to milsim events this spoke to me in every way. How I have been building up my airsoft guns to match the real steel down to optics, lights, peq15 this just gave me positive reinforcement to how I am approaching this entire thing. Thanks!
Dont be afraid to wear real plates too. Alot of guys at MilSim West wear them and helmets, in exchange the event staff give them 2 “revive” tourniquets as opposed to 1. It helps get you used to your gear and how you should run it. Airsoft honestly is a great tool at configuring and fitting your kit
So pumped for all of your knowledge transfer and hopefully some merch soon!
Thank you! Though I'm not sure we have much knowledge to transfer but we certainly do aim to point you to people who do. Check out the resource page on our site to find some of those people.

Fantastic video guys! Loved seeing a couple hundred subscribers on the first video and now already over 12k! Once I got out of the military I lost contact with most of the boys and it's just hard finding good reliable people with the same ideals.
I really appreciate you guys reinforcing this idea, and changing my mind about airsoft. I’ve been wanting to do something since I got out of the Corps to keep positive training habits, and after this video I know that I have an option to do that now.
Thanks!
This was the exact video I was hoping you guys would make next.
Damn I'm excited to see you guys and the movement blow up!
Inspiring and well done. We have this in our blood!
Like the straight forward approach here zero BS. I didn’t have this type of training in military outside of rifle and pistol qualification. I’m 55 and wish I had.
Glad to have found this channel. Very grateful for the opportunity to listen to the knowledge and motivation for teaching what you are doing yourself. Quality info looking forward to the rest of the journey. Thank you.
Day one. Sunday the 26th 2023. Woke, Made a cup of Joe, Sat down to enjoy that. I sleep with TH-cam on. Usually it's a black screen with Blizzard or Thunderstorms. So I go to home page and the first thing that catches my eye, "What is Dirty Civilian".. Watched it and now just started Mil-Sim.. I'm 52 and have to say so far I'm am incredibly inspired and intrigued. Aside from my day job, I have been paying close attention from as many different perspectives what's going on in politics, culture, foreign, domestic policy and events. I've been doing this since shortly after 911. My first passion was of course re-learning some history to try and figure out how the US ended up being attacked on the day. I was less than one hundred miles as the crow flies from ground zero, Stuck on an Island at work when the planes hit the buildings. Second was becoming a legacy media watchdog and learning more about the history of the legacy media, Because something felt off how everything was being covered. Also knowing that a Country and a People can only survive and live free and prosperous if they're informed properly. It's been an incredibly surreal twenty plus years to say the least. Throughout that time the bulk of my time has been building up my network of independent media/journalists, trying to find those representatives that seem to see what's happening to this amazing country and are working to try and save it. Trying to spread the message and get others to take notice and an interest. To encourage others to please break from the traditional propaganda outlets and dig deeper to get closer tot the truth of what's going on. Anyone that's also tried this probably can attest that it can be a very lonely place breaking from the mainstream culture and not just accepting the usual authorities. So far what you guys are doing at DC is spot on. I dig your commitment and passion for Truth, The scriptures and our Lord Jesus Christ, The fact that you encourage men to constantly THINK. Not just to take a trip to an event and go hot once you've arrived. You go hot the minute you decided to go and approach it as a mission. First thing I thought was instead of finding the quickest root to the event, Treat it as an occupation and that the main roads would be watched and to instead navigate through back roads off the beaten path. Use old school navigation. I live in New England in a small town on a family homestead passed down from my grandfather to his kids where we all have homes spread out on a combined 25 acres. Blessed to be raised around do it yourself men and women, To have chosen a life of working as many trades as I can rather than choosing one career, That the care of Family, Friends, Community, Country and our planet is paramount and that there is no higher purpose than service to others. Service not Slavery. I am older but am in total support so far of what you are doing and am going to pay close attention and share what you have to offer. My brother and I have been on each other to get back out in the woods and I want to start sharing learning more and sharing survival skills with my 12 year old daughter. I don't want to sound demeaning but It's sad to witness just how incapable todays young men have become, At least from what I've witnessed around where I live and those that have come and gone in my field of work in the Tree Service Industry. Time to put some time in money into the FJ getting it back up to snuff and start selecting gear in preparation. I have a lot of gear and experience in outdoor survival but not from the military tactical perspective. Probably not going to get too far in modern warfare with a lever action 30 30.. Keep up the great work, Thanks for taking a stand and God Bless..
You guys are crushing it. You guys have been an inspiration to me for a long while now. I'm stoked to see how you guys have grown and am excited to see what's in store for you. 👍🏻👍🏻
The channel is new, is it not?
I am so filled with happiness, motivation, and excitement for the future because of this channel. You are being both education, yea, but also something that I think a lot of the gun community is missing that Dirty Civilian fills the gap in: purpose. You are providing a lot of purpose to people by your content. Keep going and don’t stop.
Well, you guys clearly know how to make quality content. Thanks for this. I look forward to more.

Much appreciated!
I just want to thank you guys for starting this channel and sharing this knowledge with us looking forward to seeing more and practicing more 🔥
Now THATS some serious stuff, I'M really glad you made it clear and official on your chanell for everyone, I spent 18 years on my Airsoft hobby, and always said to my friends, if i have oportunity to train using airsoft replica, it should replicate training with a real firearm. it makes no harm to anyone, only adds adidional knowledge in case IF. Navigation, Communication, Survival, Hunting, Shooting, Tactics and overall prep stuff, should be learned by much more ppl, especially right now. Better be prepared at minimum to what may come and it never comes, than be bare naked and got wiped out bcos you wasn't prepared... Great Video! thanks!
Tuning in from north west Arkansas. Amazing to see what you guys stand for and what you are built off of. Your foundation is strong and carried by your faith. You have my support no doubt thank you. You guys are changing things for the good of the people. I love your mission and hope one day to be apart of something similar! There is still hope! Still figuring out my calling and I am drawn to this way of life/industry. Keep up your knowledge transfer guys!

This is amazing yet again! I hear yall mention COD or Warzone close to the end, and on the subject of training, if yall have not tried it, pick up a quest 2 vr, buy Onward and Ghost of Tabor. They can help engrain that movement, communication, planning and other things far better than say COD and the immersion is second to none in the gaming world. I know it sounds crazy but seriously give it a try. Alot of real world training translates well to those titles and as i said it can help get those reps and engrain the movements like clearing a room or even just comms. Watched through most your vids in the last couple days! Moment of silence for Nicholas Jones
As someone who's done airsoft and milsim for about 18 years now... I personally can say it has helped withing my current career as well. I learned fantastic communication skills, navigation, how to appropriately use coms, firing while moving in multi directional fassets, how to safely pie corners and how to safely breach windows, doors and doors. I also learned how to identify cornerfed and center fed rooms, I learned situational awareness, and also how to combat tunnel vision. Not to mention the fitness it helped me maintain. The sport is worth it
So far you guys are killing it. A lot of good points keep up the good work.
You guys have given me a completely different view of all the larpers out there. I may never join you (or maybe I will) but I will at least have a new respect for what you do.
Guys, You are amazing, I am enthusiastic of Airsoft MilSim and your perspective was really amazing, and aligned with what I use do have fun and "sharp the axe"!! Congrats, I am a huge fan!!👏
Really excited for the growth of the message. Keep up this work. Thank you for the push
26:40 Know the limitations of your weapon system and work around them to accomplish your task.
The principal still applies with your standard kit.
Great video. I look forward to seeing what comes next.
New to the channel, and massively impressed so far. Commenting today as im a UK based airsofter, with over 20 years playing, 16 of those attending games that are more milsim based.
We're very lucky that we have access to MOD OBUA ( operrations in built up areas) facilities, which adds that extra level of realism. Events run 24 -36 hours, and depending on your choice of sides depends on the facilities youll have in game. As a die hard OPFOR player we dont have the luxuries of electricity and running water the oppo have, so, as youve mentioned.more forward planning comes into play before the event starts.
With some events theres also an element of roleplay involved, interaction with civ pop and task force players.
I could go on for hours as to the ins and outs of the events, but instead ill share a video from a recent event, which gives a good look into the shennanigans we get up to.
Keep up the great work, guys, look forward to seeing the channel grow.

You guys rock. An inspiration. I’m out training every weekend. I watch you guys and it gives me hope that there are others out there like me. Keep up the great content. I’ll keep watching.
Thanks for giving this to the world! Doing a grand job of informing people like me who want to be more prepared but don't know how or what the next step that would actually yield improvements.
Having a Gas-Blowback Rifle helps…
Their not cheap but they do add some snappy mechanical experience as well as enough recoil to transition over to a real firearm.
If you own blank firearms, some Mil-sims allow it. You can setup your own scenario with Simunition rounds, have a big group of buddies or family members to train against will help also.
It's awesome to hear you guys talking about this stuff. I just finished setting up a GBBR to mirror my real rifle.
Outstanding the best I've seen, don't stop.
Can’t tell you how grateful I am to see other people with the same passions. Isolation is the devils playground, seeing this is encouraging. More, please.

Amazing production video quality
These videos are amazing! Keep making this content, much respects from this Canadian
My local friends and I went to our first milsim event right out of high school around 10 years ago.
We met a great group of guys that are a state away from us but we have all become ridiculously close friends and plan to go to different events throughout the year together. Those are my guys, wouldn’t trade them for anything.
These tactics are absolutely beautiful, I gotta edge to this.
The quality of you videos is amazing.
It’s good to have civilians train like this, you never know when these skills and countless hours of training will pay off
This channel is gonna get really big. Airsoft community used to just have to try and be like operators. Now with this channel appealing straight to them looking* the same as operators... this may get bigger than any other "like" channel. THey got the good editing, expenisve gear, and the proper rhetoric to appeal to this scene. Good for them!
I never thought of it this way. This was eye opening. Subbed. 🤙
I'll admit , I haven't ever thought about Airsoft like you guys just conveyed it..
I knew some guys used them in their self-defense classes , just as they do with Blue Ammo. ...
I greatly appreciate the different perspective . 👍
I'm sure I'll be searching Airsoft online tonight, lol...
Thanks for the video, Great job!
In the military, we trained flaged weapons in a glass room ( tape on the floor ) till we couldn't get it wrong, then moved to an empty room, then empty house, blankbad guy in empty room, house, furniture in room, house, bad guy with furniture in room, house and months later a live shoot house. Number 1 man is never wrong on entry ( path of least resistance). The slow is quick fast is dead. Remember you have the rest of your life to clear that house. And we did use green gas training weapons sometimes. And it takes 1000 repetitions for your body to start to understand the movement. It takes millions to make muscle memory. And I definitely agree train as you fight.
A lot of this is actually great advice for life.
I love what you guys are doing. Keep it up!
If you're anywhere near Memphis, sing up for T1G's Op4 roles and get paid to train. There's an event happening March 7th-10th that still has a few openings.
Awesome content keep it up. Spot on with the concept you prepare every day every minute. A soon to be 62-year-old kind of a lone wolf in my town, but I keep working every day to learn to get better be ready and encourage my sons, both ex guardsmen, and everybody that has sensibility, that I speak to it for nothing else than peace of mind be prepared thank you
Airsoft is a very fun hobby, it quickly became a gateway to real steel shooting and preparedness for me. All the cringe aside it is an excellent training tool... everything is a learning experience in these milsims, most people won't admit it but it really comes down to the mindset. You can run around with an HPA or AEG and just sling plastic all day for fun... but for the concerned citizen it can easily become viable option for force-on-force training, moving under fire, small unit tactics, CQB, sustainment, comms and so much more. Most of which is just the flat range training but wayy more enhanced and dynamic.
There are plenty of videos from MSW or the huge european games where they have technicals and large camping excursions. When you're in the big AO's you really start to learn about sustainment and whether your kit is sorted. Food, hydration, extra batteries, sleeping bags, toiletries, extra clothes, bb's and gas, all of this becomes a huge factor to consider and is very transferrable to other activities like hiking and camping.. I always imagine the 24hr+ milsims as an awesome camping trip with guns. Keeps me positive about the whole thing and I know I can learn a lot when I'm out there either alone or with my team.
The biggest limiting factor in airsoft... are the guns themselves. In simplest terms, you are a grown dude playing dress up and shooting toy guns at eachother. If you can understand that and still move forward using the mindset of being a 'dirty civilian' and realize the training value it has, you will go a long way... That's why airsoft is an excellent tool for CQB training, they wont hit shit at range but for room clearing, interior movement, breaching, pieing you name it, airsoft can provide that. Obviously the caveats are cover/concealment and bullet penetration, but at the same time you are shooting a 6mm projectile so the notion of aim small, miss small in a CQB environment definitely applies.
This was great, I was debating going to events like this but this convinced me.
I absolutely love the amount of training you and your team are doing. The amount of skill it takes to do what you ask are doing, is not easy, so, good on you all. But I will tell you something ,that most don't think of. Psychological. As a combat vet,I will tell you that that, is gonna hurt more people, then people think. While you can't train for 100%, you must train you brain for the things you will see and be called to do. Sign up for a SERE school. Go out in the woods and hunt. Ride along with a local ambulance company or fire department or a local law enforcement. The amount of things you will see and do, in a shtf evolution, well, let's just say, I hope it doesn't come to it. Keep it up guys, keep adding to your toolbox.
There has been a close correlation for years! It’s nice to see the hun guys starting to realise that now let’s learn from each other
Definitely a good watch gentleman, I learnt heaps. Thank you. 👍God bless 🙏
you guys are amazing im so glad i found you when you were relatively small im sure you'll blow up and im here for it.
Got to practice making a bough bed and slept in a crap bag at iron horse last year. On the ground. In sub freezing. Bad choice but learned.
Keep it going, fellas. This will definitely take off. Very well done
I love your guys' channel. This is exactly what me and my small crew are working towards.
Great information. On point. Never played airsoft but I can see how one can learn tactics, mission planning, movement with a squad, etc etc.
I love your guys attitude and outlook, keep killin' it! Train Hard, Fight Easy.
You guys are clearly on my level with the use of mil-sim and motorcycling to prepare for the worst. While I haven't been to any airsoft events, I have been to some large paintball events, including mag-fed only. I also play Squad and Arma 3 a lot with a curved ultra-wide monitor and, for Arma 3, a TrackIR motion-tracking controller. That's how I've been getting any combat experience for the last 4 years. It cost a pretty penny in the short run but it has saved me a lot of money over the last several years. I've been getting an itch for some physical shootouts lately though.
An amazing video. Something every new shooter and people getting into firearms needs to see.
i love milsim, done a few events that were a lot of fun, but also realised i would probably be dead if i did live fire training with the people i was with.
