If you’re currently versed in Firearms and are able to start a chapter, or if you are lucky enough to live in an area with a local chapter the SRA is a good organization.

On a more practical “where can I buy a gun” level, https://www.gunbroker.com/ is basically ebay for guns, serves the whole USA, and has been very reliable for me over the years. The catch is the guns are not mailed directly to buyers, a local gun store acts as middleman to receive and you go pick up from there. Saves a lot of time and money if you know what you’re looking for.
For knowing the law in your state about you can and can’t own and carry, start here:
Please visit or call the shop you’re shipping the gun to give them a heads up. Often they usually have a nominal fee for taking delivery of and storing the weapon until you can pick it up. Also they’ll securely store the weapon until you pass any needed background check.
You’re joking right? The subreddit is heavily tankie and the forums before they took them offline where also tankie. I’m sure there are some people who aren’t like that, that are members of the SRA, but the majority is super tankie. Just look at their mission statement, it’s even got anti-capitalist as part of their mission.
No, why would I be joking? What’s the joke? Seriously, can we dive into this? What about my comment made you think I was trying to be funny?

You’re basing your opinion of a leftist org entirely on your personal internet experiences. Basing your opinion of an organization on internet experiences is not wise.

If you think being anti capitalist is synonymous with being a tankie, then you’ve done a better job discrediting yourself than I ever could have.
The SRA takes great pains to communicate the idea that they are a broad coalition of queen folks, people of color, anarchists, marxists, maoists, marxist-leninists, etc… united in the belief of anti capitalism. Their whole shtick is that any and all leftists can join united under the idea of learning about guns - regardless of individual philosophy. The fact that youre lobbing around the word “tankie” at zero hour of the fascist descent, in combination with equating “tankie” with anticapitalism, in combination with spewing FUD about one of the most successful and inclusive leftists gun rights orgs, makes it pretty clear that youre just one of the typical radlibs who aren’t ready to commit to reckoning with the United States’ burgeoning fascism.
Thanks for proving my point… nothing like an .ml tankie to come swooping in and drop some hot ass garbage.
PS. You can go through my comments, I’m a hardcore 2a guy who’s volunteered time with the pink pistols via my firearms and my own range, before blazing sword and they combined. The fact that you’re acting like those of us who don’t like fascist in any form are ok with swapping right wing fascist with you tankies version of authoritarianism is just hilarious.

Good basis of organized tactics. The guide below is more about organized movement than direct fire. Below will NOT help you in a firefight as it relies on a much larger trained force than you are likely to have. Good to know what the bastards study though. https://www.trngcmd.marines.mil/Portals/207/Docs/TBS/B2F2837 Rifle Squad Tactics.pdf?ver=2015-05-27-100939-710

You’re good, a lot of people don’t know it is. This is why I volunteer my range for blazing sword vs the SRA.
Nah, I’m well. You’re good. You’re helping make marginilized people safer.Thank you.
Do tell how the SRA is “tankie”.
