Some good RECCE advice from a SERE school instructor

[22ishplinkster]

Lots of larping but some good advice for woods rifle:
- Fitness is most important
- Stop Look Listen
- Avoid bad visual signatures (reflective surfaces, shiny paint, break up your lines)
- Surroundings will dictate caliber choice (dense forest will want lighter shorter range caliber, desert mountains will want to reach further out)
- Remove QD swivels to cut down on noise

Any other tips?

I don't even know what RECCE is. I've seen it here on INGO, but every time I see it I think Reeses peanut butter cups. But I'm pretty sure that's not it.

Oh gawd Reddit is leaking…..don’t bring RECCE here. It’s a silly concept for larpers.

Didn’t it start with SEAL snipers? I get it, larpers gonna larp, but is there a problem with accurate, lightweight, full length handguard AR, even if it’s been dumbed down by said larpers? Or you think it was a bad concept to begin with?

Just got the video to work. GT didn’t spend 2 minutes on the rifle, more about the mindset of being in the woods, on a mission. So I guess recce mindset is a thing? Or was?https://gatdaily.com/recce-another-retiring-concept/?amp

That was my takeaway too. But this is one video that's part of a broader series. I believe there is at least one that's a little more about how to set up the rifle.

So sneaking though the woods and living like a animal. I mean no fire or anything in all weather conditions.

Sleeping on the ground carrying stupid amounts of weight. Attempting to be quiet and sneak up on other humans.

Sounds fun until your a old man and it hurts to wake up!

Hey! Are they keymod or mlok?

This assume that you make no noise in your sleep...

The chainsaw in my bedroom disqualifies me immediately.

Keymod. I gambled. I didn't realize they'd become the Beta Max of accessory attachment.
