16:25 May I suggest that the trash bags can indeed help with camouflage in an urban setting? I’d recommend black trash bags to minimize transparency, but in an SHTF scenario, you can use trash/trash bags to hide your gear (or yourself) to facilitate a better position for reconnaissance or to aid in evasion.
Not a bad idea. I was a police officer in the bay area years ago. What I thought was a pile of trash was actually a 5150 homeless woman who blended in PERFECTLY.

Binos & a note pad. Reconnaissance is observation at it’s core. I know that carrying multiple things is bad (ounces equals pounds) but I feel that even in an urban environment carrying a pair of small binoculars is is critical. Yes, the phone & phone scope with a small spotter is great, but there’s many times that is simply too slow to set up, too narrow of a field of view, much more. Notes can be taken with the phone as well. But phones can and will go belly up at the worst possible time and all that vital information now stored on that brick is useless. Binos and a notepad. Number one item.
Been working on an SPR build, your content is fantastic. Informative without being boring or neck beardy, and there’s a lot of that out there. Thanks man
Having spent a little time in an STA/Sniper platoon in the Corps I can tell you that observation is very taxing and will quickly wear you out. I recommend you purchase some inexpensive dollar-store caffeine pills and stock up on your nicotine supplies if you are so inclined. Also, you're going to be on your belly a lot so invest on some good elbow and knee pads or at least get some that slip into your uniform or reinforce what you're going to use as it will quickly wear through.
@Brass Facts In a combat environment you're going to need two things : ammo and water. Obviously, in a Recce environment, you're trying not to get into gunfights. Food is kept to a minimum so a few snack bars/ protein bars and water. It weighs a ton. I have a bit of combat experience in Iraq and every ounce counts...
in the field i always brought peanut butter. maybe secondary water purification system. 2 is 1. 1 is a none. n yes ur not trying to get into gunfight but if it happens the one who wins is the one who has more ammo.
100% agree with this. Even if scenario is SHTF everyone wants to gear up and get ready to get some. Sexy but not advantageous. I'd rather keep my distance if I'm not in a group. Going solo you're not gonna close with and destroy. I'd react to contact just enough to break contact.
Moving quietly at night on foot by yourself or in a small team in a populated city or suburban environment is a pipe dream. In this scenario you mention, lots of people will be watching from their houses or apartments at night, specifically looking for military aged males carrying weapons and will spot you unless the illumination levels allow for extreme darkness. Even if there's no electricity and the locals don't pay attention, stray dogs and cats will likely give you away. And, if you're detected you have no helicopter or QRF to extract you. This will leave you looking like a potential looter to any onlookers, inviting paranoid residents to attack you. Even if this is somehow well-after population levels have been reduced to ghost-town levels, you have to understand that the dominant strategy among the remaining badguys will likely be to camp, snipe, and wait for days on end before collecting the items dropped by victims. So what is a good idea? I would suggest strength in numbers. Rolling around in small convoys of 20-30 dudes in 4-6 vehicles, such that anyone who sees you knows that an ambush would invite a response they would be unlikely to survive. A group that size would be better positioned to negotiate with bandits manning roadblocks, community groups, etc that they may encounter. And provided you don't come off as too aggressive, rival groups would be more inclined to merge with you, absorb you, or work out a truce than to pick a costly fight. People form groups very quickly, and the lone-wolf or small-group/family mindset is a starting point before you begin integrating into larger groups; it is not a sustainable strategy for long-term success. I would encourage you to study post-soviet Afghanistan to see how people behave when reduced to subsistence and feudalism in the modern age.
The alternative mentioned “convoys of 20-30 dudes” doesn’t seem realistic for many reasons, first and foremost when you run out of gas within the first week. Having night vision won’t make you silent or invisible but it will cut down your signature, make it hard for people to spot you, make it hard for anyone to engage you. Having the ability to move at night is a game changer, 99% of people won’t have nods, most won’t even have a flashlight worth a damn. Moving at night to collect water or food, set up an OP, logistics etc seems like it makes a lot of sense.
@@jamesharding3459 are you brain dead dude? No one is debating that if you have fuel and 20-30 dudes (who you’ve previously trained with and have comms with) that you can roll with then obviously that is a superior to a single guy with nods. The question is whether that is viable in most or any actual scenarios? Do you actually think about what you say?
I think he brought up at some point in the video that it is far from an ideal situation. And while I was in the corps we always heard stories about people in combat zones getting complacent. Is it ideal trying to go through an urban area because there may be people but if you're lucky nobody is going to be paying attention and if you're really lucky you will never need to do a mission like this. A mission like this is more guerilla force vs. military not so much end of the world fallout style shit anyway.
Pet your Dog you monster! lol. but on a real note, great information, I've started implementing some of the things that you do like making several maps of my local area. Not something I would've really considered if not for your videos
Oh, and you couldn't pay me enough gummy bears to walk across that huge basin into a major metropolitan area in a WROL situation. I can only imagine two things happening, one is that somebody in an elevated thermally shielded position surveying the basin with a good thermal imager will spot me and then get a little dopamine squirt from shooting me in the groin with their .338 Norma magnum rifle and the other is that Randal Flagg will know I am coming even before I do and have his people make a pit trap right where I am going to walk over near the city. Come on, man! I ain't goin' there.
I have found the best boots for anything outdoors tends to be Nick's boots personally, though I have heard some good things about Whites boots. As long as you regularly clean and oil them, they will be extremely waterproof no matter what you step in. Also thats an adorable dog.
Thermal detection systems are more common in higher populated areas than most think! Most don't talk about scenarios of resting or waiting for opportunity with means of thermal mitigation. I would love to get your thoughts on this. I have been looking at Beez Combat Systems' Spectralflage. Could be a decent start!'
I like the idea of just keeping that backpack fully loaded with plenty of stuff, then when u grab it, you can decide then what to take out and leave, vs trying to load the backpack with what you think you may need when time matters.
Don't know if you're aware of this, but if you can keep a cell phone powered, you can use ATAK (real time strategic planning and mapping instantly with other members, think Intel briefing in real time). It also does not need cell towers to operate, but uses cell phones as a processor and touch screen. All the software for this is currently free, just need about $30 for the transceiver and any old Android phone (can't use Apple because program wipes OS and runs it's own). If you're interested in more info, check out S2 underground.
Its way more than $30 for the LORA device. They're pushing $50 for a 915mhz device. Which app are you saying wipes your OS? ATAK or Meshtastic? Because I don't think that's true for either of them. ATAK runs as an app, so does Meshtastic on an Android. I have both on my Android phone. There is ITAK for Apple products and Meshtastic also has a beta app for Iphones now.
If you ever run down to to your last few rounds with 3 mag set up in a 1 on 1 gunfight without back you will change your mind forever. It's a life changing feeling.
You waste no time sharing info. You speak in an easy tone for background at work and you hit keypoints multiple times for the slow ones like me. Your content is like the unsung hero reason TH-cam actually works.
I like it. Mine is a canvas over the shoulder bag that looks more like a college student's book bag or a frumpy old lady's purse. It also is mostly empty. Food and water load out depends on the time factor, weather, and other environmental factors. It can go with only a hand gun, a pdw, or a full blown rifle set up. plainly visible stealth is still an option. Great video. Great info. I really like the way you think. Thanks.
I like wearing a rain cover over my backpack to minimise snags. You can keep and use your external pouches for quick access, etc., but you're dead right about snag hazards and shit flying around catching on door handles, window frames, branches, etc.
Definitely good info regarding survival gear for that 30 hour mission that turns into 72 hours. I would swap out one of your Nalgene bottles for a stainless steel single wall bottle that your can boil found water in.
I’d advise storing your nods in a pelican case, lenses covered and battery removed when not is active use. Even when not “on” ambient light can damage the image intensifier tubes. Nods are not cheap.
i think what your speaking in detail is actually setting up a LP/OP or sniper observation post ( to which you would optimally want to do on ground recon for/to separately). When i hear urban recon i think of more covert blending in to local population that is recon'ing a specific route or target. Your gear set would have to be very "incog" or low vis in nature and have very little capability for any sort of sustained fight and almost no offensive capability. i was never a recce or snot guy so it is a little outside my wheelhouse so.... The MK 12 was absolutely used as a urban sniper weapon in Iraq, and did quite well there. Typically a SNOT team would set up some sort of OP/over watch position to support the assaulters who be on target, how long before tot the SNOT team be in place is mission dependent. I think this video is trying to blend the two? Not sure but some solid stuff presented for someone who has no experience in the subject.
yeah blending into a semi-collapsed or rule of law scenario would look way different. the scenario I describe is probably semi-analogous (for the military) to a recon team in something like Fallujah (near complete evac of civs) working for a larger element. Except here it's just the team, no backup. and the recon is in service of said team.
@@BrassFacts recon itself facilitates a over all purpose that is offensive in nature, meaning you are intently trying to capture, or destroy something. Reconnaissance or surveillance is mostly used for the purpose of follow on mission planning, which can be small or big (recon’ing a site for a platoon size ambush or maybe a probing attack for a larger BDE or divisional size operation or surveillance of a compound you plan to raid at a specific time). I suppose you could recon for defensive purposes but I would see that being very limited in nature. In a EOW scenario I would imagine that offensive warfare is not your primary concern which would be security and survival. If we are talking insurgent warfare then yes being low vis, and having the ability to “melt” back in after going kinetic will be key. Being able to operate around your enemies capability is crucial. The insurgent is never the battle space owner and must act accordingly.
I think the issue is, you're having trouble detaching military terms from non-military usage. (I mean this respectfully) The video here is exclusively for civilians. Recon in the military supports a larger element. Because most of what the military does is offensive in nature, it follows that recon is a means to facilitate offensive action. For civilians, this connect doesn't exist. Which is why in part 1 of this video it's called "Civilian Urban Recce" So while civilian recon might facilitate offensive direction action. This is not always the goal. There is nothing inherently offensive about the act of setting up in a hide, watching a area. It's only what is done with that info that gives that act meaning. This entire scenario is for a societal collapse in society. There is no insurgency left to blend back into it. The Civilian Urban Recce video I did might be a primer on where I'm coming from here. I don't mean to discredit what you say. And perhaps my terminology could be different. But in the most literal term this Is recon (the act of observing) in a city (Urban)
@@BrassFacts reconnaissance is the act of gathering battlefield information. If you are setting up a “hide” to watch a vital piece of terrain or some important route, for “civilian” defensive purposes that is a LP/OP. Reconnaissance is gathering of information on enemy, key terrain (in the context of follow on action, like recon’ing a site for a PB or any sort of base of operations), or tactical infrastructure, but you only gather that kind of information if you plan on using it. I said in my previous comment that there are few defensive applications of reconnaissance that I can think of (thing having one man scout a route for a larger group of people to travel safely) but that is blurring the lines of what reconnaissance is.I am using military verbage, but my context is civilian, insurgent, what ever term you want to use for armed people who are not part of a organized state sponsored military. A armed civilian can still be a combatant and engage in war. I guess I am confused as civilian has the context of non combatant, but if you are running around with armor and long guns are you a civilian, insurgent, armed combatant? My final question is if you doing “recon” as a civilian what is the purpose of these recon missions if not to provide information for follow on actions, missions or operations?
@@BrassFacts I served in the military in two different SOF units. While you are using a phrase or term that is part of a bigger picture militarily....your point fits the definition just fine. There are a couple of other highly-qualified SF dudes using a similar concept for civilians foraging/gathering, hunting, and E and E ,etc....
Some good ideas I hadn't thought of. Enjoying your POV on things. Have been explaining my thoughts on rifles to the boys for a long time - last week i saw your "field rifle" video for the first time - hey, my thoughts put into a video. well done. - i sent the boys a link as you explained perfectly. Thank you. BTW - Looks like you might need to add some doggy treats to that 36 hr bag.
The bag thing on the back of the pc will only be useful when you have a buddy. Most of us will be solo. Don't want to take off my pc just to get shit. Backpacks are the way.
HE has a backpack. Hes prob gonna put that backpack on right over that PC pouch. Its when he needs to ditch the backpack for a while to do something, that he doesn't want to be without some critical items... Better to have to worry about grabbing said items, than not having them at all.
I have all sorts of gear and weapons meant for a range of activities I can forsee in my area. I have packs of various sizes to accommodate my needs. I also purchased an atv to increase my range and abilities since I am no longer a spring chicken. No matter the situation, I can bring the hurt if needed. My issue is finding like minded and capable people on my area. Most seem to keep to themselves or lacking the equipment or will to do anything. Nonetheless, I like the video as it has sparked more thought about knowledge I may need to obtain. I also ebjoy seeing others setups and hearing their reasoning behind it too. Thanks
you nailed the toughest part. The critical components of my kit, mission plan, and SOPs can be secured for fairly little in a short time of time. The issue is getting like minded individuals to setup a real team. And even when you find those people. It's not always a given that you guys will operate on the same wavelength. Implicit trust/ and combability is insanely important in a scenario like this This is why my current "team" is honestly very small, doesn't train together often anymore. It's tough
@@BrassFacts I hate that... I feel alone in my area. Besides gun ranges, I really do not have a place to really train. I cannot go out to a state park and practice trade craft without scaring someone and sparking a man hunt. I spend more time doing things at night, alone. I guess it is what it is. Keep the videos coming, I appreciate them.
@@BrassFacts Its disarming. Throws em off with a little humor while telling em nun of their biz. Keep at the training on your own. I have seen folks create (write down) their own training Op Ords. Do your own after actions as well. it will help you get better and remind you where you left off as you cycle through different disciplines. Sounds like your getting out there no matter what. Tip my hat to you sir.
I too live in the Salt Lake area and I've tried to learn what I can about survival and preparedness but almost everyone who is a content creator for bushcraft or preparedness seems to live in the central or Eastern united states; you know, were things grow and you can find water. So were can you learn about surviving in an desert environment?
that is a very good doggo and a very important asset to the kit as it is a huge moral booster and if something happens to the dog we all know what happens
I love the tiger stripe camo on that one (your friend's?) gun. I keep meaning to paint at least one of my long guns with that pattern but keep delaying and then forgetting. I will probably forget again before I hit the comment button here. Entertaining and thought provoking as usual. Thanks again.
A plate carrier in an urban area is not an option, it's a necessity. Be it 3 hours or 3 weeks. Your likelihood of taking contact in an urban area is through the roof. You can ask the Iraq vets about it. Jocko Willink and a bunch of others have podcasts about being in urban areas as well as their experiences in Iraq. A lot of them took multiple rounds to the plate carrier. It's not comfortable, but it's a must.
Might consider dumping those Nalgenes for lighter options. Can cut half a pound right there. Then pop in a pouch of "combat wipes." TP is nice but if you really need to wipe, that's what you want, along with Monkey Butt powder. There are few things worse than chaffing and blisters. Along those lines, extra socks are a life saver. And some sort of water filtration/purification (Katadyn BeFree is light and compact). Future video, might want to talk about detecting when you're being observed, passively or actively.
Generally, what kinds of SOP's do you recommend keeping in your information packet? I'd like to make one of those for myself with freqs and maps of my area too.
maps, certain radio protocols to help you, without being compromising should someone else get (analog basic encryption works here). And then just information what you've observed etc.
How do you like the Howard Leights for comma/ear pro? I have the same ones. I noticed they were a lot more clear in receiving transmissions than my Walker Razors. Great video as always!
For "cheap" active ear pro, the Peltor RangeGuards are my favorite. I have the NoiseFighter gel cups on my HLs but the stock ear cups on the Peltors are honestly pretty good. They fit better for smaller heads, which I have... The audio quality is better on the Peltors too. Much more natural sounding, unlike the HL which kinda sounds like youre receiving sound through a bucket first. I wish AXL made mounts for the RangeGuards for the Opscore arms but they dont as far as I know... So Ive been using the HLs and its been, meh.
In regards to the spr vs gpr usage, I'm building it n would love your thoughts on it. Build your gpr, then build an spr upper to keep on/in your bag (or vice versa) so mission dependent it's 2 pins and a bcg and your system is interchangeable vs having to choose between 2 completely separate systems. If you have a group that would also help to designate dmr roles if you have an upper with the dope chart but someone else is a better distance shooter.
I don’t think there is enough difference in useful range to make it worth while as an individual to do this. I shoot my 10.5” to 450 yards on a 10” plate consistently with an eotech and a g45 magnifier. (Granted, this is prone on a flat range) I can hit an IPSC target with my 18” spr consitenly in windy conditions with a 10x scope maybe to 700 yds. This is 250 yds farther but it’s also a bigger target and not as consistent in very windy conditions. You would probably be better served going with a dedicated long rifle and a small PDW as backup for 100yds in. Take a few mid range rifle courses with your bolt gun and you’d be surprised how effective they can be at very close range on multiple targets.
@Heywoodthepeckerwood you can hit out to distance with a shorty but at that distance how much force is left to do the job? That's my only thought on it
@@keenenhendersonvaldepena815 I understand. But the same goes for the 16” or 18” rifle. The mk262 out of most 18” barrels is around 2700-2800 fps at 700 yds that is less than 300 pound feet energy. Out of a 10.5” expect to get about 2500-2600 fps which equals about 237 pound feet at 700 yds In fact, as far as energy out at distance, the 10.5” drops below 300lb ft at around 620 yards. And the 18” barrel at about 690 yds. I would certainly rather have a mk12 than a mk18 for those distances but I wouldn’t carry both.
Hey I'm new to all this and was wondering if you had a first backpack recommendation. I have an old chec m60 bag and a ucp 3 day assault pack, but neither is really working for me. I love your videos because you actually go over stuff and explain why you have it, unlike most others.
Have you thought about laminating those papers in the red file? Radio freqs,maps and stuff. Would hate for that to get wet and be useless. Edit: plus you could carry expo markers and write temporary notes for briefs.
@@BrassFacts you can put clear packing tape on either side for a cheapy laminate job. Used to do it with blueprints pieced together, lol. Cheap, but effective.
You could probably find a cheap laminating machine at a craft store or a yard sale. Women buy that shit all the time and never use it. I wonder if you could use a vacuum sealer to do the same thing?
If load bearing items are going for a good price, have two sets ready for the different missions. I'm old school with alice web gear, one set for summer and the other for winter.
Let's go into a little more autistic detail about "entanglement points". There's a great product called OneWrap - a double-sided hook&loop tape. It makes a perfect contraption to keep all the loose webbing ends tidied up on backpacks, pouches, etc. Dangling zipper pulls can be eliminated by either braiding them or putting a heat-shrink tubing on them, it makes a loop disappear, nothing to catch on door knobs, twigs, etc. And as much as I like being able to just stuff a water bottle or a tripod into an outside pocket with an elastic cuff, they are the worst offenders in terms of catching on stuff due to being so close to the waistline. That's the reason I prefer (less known) Tasmanian Tiger packs - they generally have less loopy (literally) stuff on them compared to American-designed packs. (Yes, Americans carry water bottles ten times more often than anyone else in the world, and it shapes the culture.)
Along with the cell phone have you considered getting usb rechargable batteries for that battery bank? If you're doing a multi day movement or if you get pinned by the movement of "douchebags" in your area your batteries; especially in your NODs might die. A solar charger might also be a good addition.
You know what would make the electric boogaloo more fun/cut out a lot of this stuff,one of the exo-armored mechs from District 9!! Can I get one of those please(without changing into a Prawn if possible).
this is for the "end of times" For when the concept of a store still exists, this is vast overkill. You want a CCW pistol, and *maybe* some soft armor and PDW.

100% agree with this. Even if scenario is SHTF everyone wants to gear up and get ready to get some. Sexy but not advantageous. I'd rather keep my distance if I'm not in a group. Going solo you're not gonna close with and destroy. I'd react to contact just enough to break contact.
Moving quietly at night on foot by yourself or in a small team in a populated city or suburban environment is a pipe dream. In this scenario you mention, lots of people will be watching from their houses or apartments at night, specifically looking for military aged males carrying weapons and will spot you unless the illumination levels allow for extreme darkness. Even if there's no electricity and the locals don't pay attention, stray dogs and cats will likely give you away. And, if you're detected you have no helicopter or QRF to extract you. This will leave you looking like a potential looter to any onlookers, inviting paranoid residents to attack you. Even if this is somehow well-after population levels have been reduced to ghost-town levels, you have to understand that the dominant strategy among the remaining badguys will likely be to camp, snipe, and wait for days on end before collecting the items dropped by victims.
So what is a good idea? I would suggest strength in numbers. Rolling around in small convoys of 20-30 dudes in 4-6 vehicles, such that anyone who sees you knows that an ambush would invite a response they would be unlikely to survive. A group that size would be better positioned to negotiate with bandits manning roadblocks, community groups, etc that they may encounter. And provided you don't come off as too aggressive, rival groups would be more inclined to merge with you, absorb you, or work out a truce than to pick a costly fight.
People form groups very quickly, and the lone-wolf or small-group/family mindset is a starting point before you begin integrating into larger groups; it is not a sustainable strategy for long-term success. I would encourage you to study post-soviet Afghanistan to see how people behave when reduced to subsistence and feudalism in the modern age.
The alternative mentioned “convoys of 20-30 dudes” doesn’t seem realistic for many reasons, first and foremost when you run out of gas within the first week. Having night vision won’t make you silent or invisible but it will cut down your signature, make it hard for people to spot you, make it hard for anyone to engage you. Having the ability to move at night is a game changer, 99% of people won’t have nods, most won’t even have a flashlight worth a damn. Moving at night to collect water or food, set up an OP, logistics etc seems like it makes a lot of sense.
@@jrapp1468 Have you heard of natural night vision? Worth a shot for people who can't get NODS.
@@jrapp1468 It’s a better idea than running around solo and getting domed by anyone posted up in a window.
@@jamesharding3459 are you brain dead dude? No one is debating that if you have fuel and 20-30 dudes (who you’ve previously trained with and have comms with) that you can roll with then obviously that is a superior to a single guy with nods. The question is whether that is viable in most or any actual scenarios? Do you actually think about what you say?
I think he brought up at some point in the video that it is far from an ideal situation. And while I was in the corps we always heard stories about people in combat zones getting complacent.
Is it ideal trying to go through an urban area because there may be people but if you're lucky nobody is going to be paying attention and if you're really lucky you will never need to do a mission like this. A mission like this is more guerilla force vs. military not so much end of the world fallout style shit anyway.
Commenting for the algorithm, we preciate you yo.
Pet your Dog you monster! lol. but on a real note, great information, I've started implementing some of the things that you do like making several maps of my local area. Not something I would've really considered if not for your videos
and common freaqs used by agencies and others
Finally, a loadout for raiding the local Dickeys for their last sausage, or something.
Fall asleep to Brock's soothing voice talking about something I am insanely passionate about? Again? Yes.
One thing about the trash bags is maybe try a contractor bag, super tough, dark color, highly reusable.
Great topica covered. The first step is having a plan and most dont have that. Always best to plan ahead.
Me and another buddy are building out very similar setups from your videos. I never comment on this shit but keep up the good content.
thanks man, appreciate it.
Last for a while you say? Well then.... RECCEEEEEEE
This whole time I thought it was pronounced “ricky”
More please ! I really enjoy this format.
Oh, and you couldn't pay me enough gummy bears to walk across that huge basin into a major metropolitan area in a WROL situation. I can only imagine two things happening, one is that somebody in an elevated thermally shielded position surveying the basin with a good thermal imager will spot me and then get a little dopamine squirt from shooting me in the groin with their .338 Norma magnum rifle and the other is that Randal Flagg will know I am coming even before I do and have his people make a pit trap right where I am going to walk over near the city. Come on, man! I ain't goin' there.
I have found the best boots for anything outdoors tends to be Nick's boots personally, though I have heard some good things about Whites boots. As long as you regularly clean and oil them, they will be extremely waterproof no matter what you step in. Also thats an adorable dog.
Thermal detection systems are more common in higher populated areas than most think! Most don't talk about scenarios of resting or waiting for opportunity with means of thermal mitigation. I would love to get your thoughts on this. I have been looking at Beez Combat Systems' Spectralflage. Could be a decent start!'
I like the idea of just keeping that backpack fully loaded with plenty of stuff, then when u grab it, you can decide then what to take out and leave, vs trying to load the backpack with what you think you may need when time matters.
Don't know if you're aware of this, but if you can keep a cell phone powered, you can use ATAK (real time strategic planning and mapping instantly with other members, think Intel briefing in real time). It also does not need cell towers to operate, but uses cell phones as a processor and touch screen. All the software for this is currently free, just need about $30 for the transceiver and any old Android phone (can't use Apple because program wipes OS and runs it's own).
If you're interested in more info, check out S2 underground.
yep, some guys in my group are interested. I'll be looking into it soon. Seems really cool.
Its way more than $30 for the LORA device. They're pushing $50 for a 915mhz device.
Which app are you saying wipes your OS? ATAK or Meshtastic? Because I don't think that's true for either of them. ATAK runs as an app, so does Meshtastic on an Android. I have both on my Android phone.
There is ITAK for Apple products and Meshtastic also has a beta app for Iphones now.
S2 is amazing has grown huge in the past year. Join the Garden Club.
i think the problem some people have is defining what a recce mission is and what the reqd resources would be.
If you ever run down to to your last few rounds with 3 mag set up in a 1 on 1 gunfight without back you will change your mind forever.
It's a life changing feeling.
You waste no time sharing info. You speak in an easy tone for background at work and you hit keypoints multiple times for the slow ones like me.
Your content is like the unsung hero reason TH-cam actually works.
Very nice review of your set up. It will be helpful as I build out my own recce/light kit. Thanks!
Killer running scene @ 8:57. Beautiful landscapes. Tight gear. Definitely have your 6 covered. D😎🇺🇸
I like it. Mine is a canvas over the shoulder bag that looks more like a college student's book bag or a frumpy old lady's purse. It also is mostly empty. Food and water load out depends on the time factor, weather, and other environmental factors. It can go with only a hand gun, a pdw, or a full blown rifle set up. plainly visible stealth is still an option.
Great video. Great info. I really like the way you think. Thanks.
Which bag are you going with? …and why?
Really like how you think through things. Like the extra maps etc. Really enjoy how you think on those smaller and larger details.
I like wearing a rain cover over my backpack to minimise snags. You can keep and use your external pouches for quick access, etc., but you're dead right about snag hazards and shit flying around catching on door handles, window frames, branches, etc.
Definitely good info regarding survival gear for that 30 hour mission that turns into 72 hours. I would swap out one of your Nalgene bottles for a stainless steel single wall bottle that your can boil found water in.
If you have a double wall bottle punchture a hole in the outer wall it's useable field expedite
I’d advise storing your nods in a pelican case, lenses covered and battery removed when not is active use. Even when not “on” ambient light can damage the image intensifier tubes. Nods are not cheap.
they're stored in a pouch.
Love these videos on urban preparation. Bought the mystery ranch 2 DAP because of these videos so I can build out one similar.
your neighbor with the pink hipoint is gonna be grinning over you and your loot drop lol
Haters gonna hate
The dog should be in every video!
i think what your speaking in detail is actually setting up a LP/OP or sniper observation post ( to which you would optimally want to do on ground recon for/to separately). When i hear urban recon i think of more covert blending in to local population that is recon'ing a specific route or target. Your gear set would have to be very "incog" or low vis in nature and have very little capability for any sort of sustained fight and almost no offensive capability. i was never a recce or snot guy so it is a little outside my wheelhouse so.... The MK 12 was absolutely used as a urban sniper weapon in Iraq, and did quite well there. Typically a SNOT team would set up some sort of OP/over watch position to support the assaulters who be on target, how long before tot the SNOT team be in place is mission dependent. I think this video is trying to blend the two? Not sure but some solid stuff presented for someone who has no experience in the subject.
yeah blending into a semi-collapsed or rule of law scenario would look way different.
the scenario I describe is probably semi-analogous (for the military) to a recon team in something like Fallujah (near complete evac of civs) working for a larger element.
Except here it's just the team, no backup. and the recon is in service of said team.
@@BrassFacts recon itself facilitates a over all purpose that is offensive in nature, meaning you are intently trying to capture, or destroy something. Reconnaissance or surveillance is mostly used for the purpose of follow on mission planning, which can be small or big (recon’ing a site for a platoon size ambush or maybe a probing attack for a larger BDE or divisional size operation or surveillance of a compound you plan to raid at a specific time). I suppose you could recon for defensive purposes but I would see that being very limited in nature. In a EOW scenario I would imagine that offensive warfare is not your primary concern which would be security and survival. If we are talking insurgent warfare then yes being low vis, and having the ability to “melt” back in after going kinetic will be key. Being able to operate around your enemies capability is crucial. The insurgent is never the battle space owner and must act accordingly.
I think the issue is, you're having trouble detaching military terms from non-military usage. (I mean this respectfully)
The video here is exclusively for civilians.
Recon in the military supports a larger element. Because most of what the military does is offensive in nature, it follows that recon is a means to facilitate offensive action.
For civilians, this connect doesn't exist. Which is why in part 1 of this video it's called
"Civilian Urban Recce"
So while civilian recon might facilitate offensive direction action. This is not always the goal.
There is nothing inherently offensive about the act of setting up in a hide, watching a area. It's only what is done with that info that gives that act meaning.
This entire scenario is for a societal collapse in society. There is no insurgency left to blend back into it.
The Civilian Urban Recce video I did might be a primer on where I'm coming from here.
I don't mean to discredit what you say. And perhaps my terminology could be different.
But in the most literal term this
Is recon (the act of observing) in a city (Urban)
@@BrassFacts reconnaissance is the act of gathering battlefield information. If you are setting up a “hide” to watch a vital piece of terrain or some important route, for “civilian” defensive purposes that is a LP/OP. Reconnaissance is gathering of information on enemy, key terrain (in the context of follow on action, like recon’ing a site for a PB or any sort of base of operations), or tactical infrastructure, but you only gather that kind of information if you plan on using it. I said in my previous comment that there are few defensive applications of reconnaissance that I can think of (thing having one man scout a route for a larger group of people to travel safely) but that is blurring the lines of what reconnaissance is.I am using military verbage, but my context is civilian, insurgent, what ever term you want to use for armed people who are not part of a organized state sponsored military. A armed civilian can still be a combatant and engage in war. I guess I am confused as civilian has the context of non combatant, but if you are running around with armor and long guns are you a civilian, insurgent, armed combatant? My final question is if you doing “recon” as a civilian what is the purpose of these recon missions if not to provide information for follow on actions, missions or operations?
@@BrassFacts I served in the military in two different SOF units. While you are using a phrase or term that is part of a bigger picture militarily....your point fits the definition just fine. There are a couple of other highly-qualified SF dudes using a similar concept for civilians foraging/gathering, hunting, and E and E ,etc....
BF and Hoplopfheil need more colab videos, both of you have great discussions and info. Thank you for posting.
Some good ideas I hadn't thought of. Enjoying your POV on things. Have been explaining my thoughts on rifles to the boys for a long time - last week i saw your "field rifle" video for the first time - hey, my thoughts put into a video. well done. - i sent the boys a link as you explained perfectly. Thank you. BTW - Looks like you might need to add some doggy treats to that 36 hr bag.
Man, that gear is SPARKELING with newness!!👍
is it though? The JPC had to be shortly retired after because it was falling apart.
@@BrassFacts u seem defensive
@@Dan-Rather u seem offensive
The bag thing on the back of the pc will only be useful when you have a buddy. Most of us will be solo. Don't want to take off my pc just to get shit. Backpacks are the way.
HE has a backpack. Hes prob gonna put that backpack on right over that PC pouch. Its when he needs to ditch the backpack for a while to do something, that he doesn't want to be without some critical items... Better to have to worry about grabbing said items, than not having them at all.
I have all sorts of gear and weapons meant for a range of activities I can forsee in my area. I have packs of various sizes to accommodate my needs. I also purchased an atv to increase my range and abilities since I am no longer a spring chicken. No matter the situation, I can bring the hurt if needed. My issue is finding like minded and capable people on my area. Most seem to keep to themselves or lacking the equipment or will to do anything. Nonetheless, I like the video as it has sparked more thought about knowledge I may need to obtain. I also ebjoy seeing others setups and hearing their reasoning behind it too. Thanks
you nailed the toughest part.
The critical components of my kit, mission plan, and SOPs can be secured for fairly little in a short time of time.
The issue is getting like minded individuals to setup a real team. And even when you find those people.
It's not always a given that you guys will operate on the same wavelength. Implicit trust/ and combability is insanely important in a scenario like this
This is why my current "team" is honestly very small, doesn't train together often anymore. It's tough
@@BrassFacts I hate that... I feel alone in my area. Besides gun ranges, I really do not have a place to really train. I cannot go out to a state park and practice trade craft without scaring someone and sparking a man hunt. I spend more time doing things at night, alone. I guess it is what it is.
Keep the videos coming, I appreciate them.

Recce in a jungle environment is freaking different… completely different setup
I love the tiger stripe camo on that one (your friend's?) gun. I keep meaning to paint at least one of my long guns with that pattern but keep delaying and then forgetting. I will probably forget again before I hit the comment button here. Entertaining and thought provoking as usual. Thanks again.
It’s been two years. Did you accomplish your painting goal?
A plate carrier in an urban area is not an option, it's a necessity. Be it 3 hours or 3 weeks. Your likelihood of taking contact in an urban area is through the roof. You can ask the Iraq vets about it. Jocko Willink and a bunch of others have podcasts about being in urban areas as well as their experiences in Iraq. A lot of them took multiple rounds to the plate carrier. It's not comfortable, but it's a must.
Just stumbled across this video. Would love to see how you make your maps.

The rimworld music is a great touch.
Awesome channel, where have you been? Subed for sure
I would interested in seeing when you would use a suppresor vs when you would not.
Might consider dumping those Nalgenes for lighter options. Can cut half a pound right there.
Then pop in a pouch of "combat wipes." TP is nice but if you really need to wipe, that's what you want, along with Monkey Butt powder. There are few things worse than chaffing and blisters.
Along those lines, extra socks are a life saver. And some sort of water filtration/purification (Katadyn BeFree is light and compact).
Future video, might want to talk about detecting when you're being observed, passively or actively.
Lol tolerate the dog would imply I don’t want to see dogo keep up the good work man
Generally, what kinds of SOP's do you recommend keeping in your information packet? I'd like to make one of those for myself with freqs and maps of my area too.
maps, certain radio protocols to help you, without being compromising should someone else get (analog basic encryption works here).
And then just information what you've observed etc.
How do you like the Howard Leights for comma/ear pro? I have the same ones. I noticed they were a lot more clear in receiving transmissions than my Walker Razors.
Great video as always!
good stop gap, thought eventually I want something nicer.
For "cheap" active ear pro, the Peltor RangeGuards are my favorite. I have the NoiseFighter gel cups on my HLs but the stock ear cups on the Peltors are honestly pretty good. They fit better for smaller heads, which I have... The audio quality is better on the Peltors too. Much more natural sounding, unlike the HL which kinda sounds like youre receiving sound through a bucket first.
I wish AXL made mounts for the RangeGuards for the Opscore arms but they dont as far as I know... So Ive been using the HLs and its been, meh.
In regards to the spr vs gpr usage, I'm building it n would love your thoughts on it. Build your gpr, then build an spr upper to keep on/in your bag (or vice versa) so mission dependent it's 2 pins and a bcg and your system is interchangeable vs having to choose between 2 completely separate systems. If you have a group that would also help to designate dmr roles if you have an upper with the dope chart but someone else is a better distance shooter.
I don’t think there is enough difference in useful range to make it worth while as an individual to do this.
I shoot my 10.5” to 450 yards on a 10” plate consistently with an eotech and a g45 magnifier. (Granted, this is prone on a flat range) I can hit an IPSC target with my 18” spr consitenly in windy conditions with a 10x scope maybe to 700 yds. This is 250 yds farther but it’s also a bigger target and not as consistent in very windy conditions.
You would probably be better served going with a dedicated long rifle and a small PDW as backup for 100yds in.
Take a few mid range rifle courses with your bolt gun and you’d be surprised how effective they can be at very close range on multiple targets.
@Heywoodthepeckerwood you can hit out to distance with a shorty but at that distance how much force is left to do the job? That's my only thought on it
@@keenenhendersonvaldepena815 I understand. But the same goes for the 16” or 18” rifle. The mk262 out of most 18” barrels is around 2700-2800 fps at 700 yds that is less than 300 pound feet energy.
Out of a 10.5” expect to get about 2500-2600 fps which equals about 237 pound feet at 700 yds
In fact, as far as energy out at distance, the 10.5” drops below 300lb ft at around 620 yards. And the 18” barrel at about 690 yds.
I would certainly rather have a mk12 than a mk18 for those distances but I wouldn’t carry both.
Dude we have a lot of the same gear..you and me! I love my Mystery Ranch Backpack!!!

Hey I'm new to all this and was wondering if you had a first backpack recommendation. I have an old chec m60 bag and a ucp 3 day assault pack, but neither is really working for me. I love your videos because you actually go over stuff and explain why you have it, unlike most others.

If load bearing items are going for a good price, have two sets ready for the different missions. I'm old school with alice web gear, one set for summer and the other for winter.
Awesome doggo, love when he checks what you show :-)
Let's go into a little more autistic detail about "entanglement points". There's a great product called OneWrap - a double-sided hook&loop tape. It makes a perfect contraption to keep all the loose webbing ends tidied up on backpacks, pouches, etc. Dangling zipper pulls can be eliminated by either braiding them or putting a heat-shrink tubing on them, it makes a loop disappear, nothing to catch on door knobs, twigs, etc. And as much as I like being able to just stuff a water bottle or a tripod into an outside pocket with an elastic cuff, they are the worst offenders in terms of catching on stuff due to being so close to the waistline. That's the reason I prefer (less known) Tasmanian Tiger packs - they generally have less loopy (literally) stuff on them compared to American-designed packs. (Yes, Americans carry water bottles ten times more often than anyone else in the world, and it shapes the culture.)
Along with the cell phone have you considered getting usb rechargable batteries for that battery bank? If you're doing a multi day movement or if you get pinned by the movement of "douchebags" in your area your batteries; especially in your NODs might die.
A solar charger might also be a good addition.
I have all of the above.
But the bulk of batteries is far less than the bulk of a recharge system. I'd rather just bring more batteries.
