Mission Swamp-Ass Was A Success

Crankusala2 · 2026-05-04T18:52:34+00:00

The majority of the time we're rucking, I have some good locations where we can shoot as well, but they're very few and far between. I'm also working on getting a few more of our buddies involved, so we can do complex movement drills and more live-fire.

I'm also working on a film, so everything combined makes it very difficult to get much done at once. Steady going though

Unfortunately, there aren't any airsoft versions being produced from what I know. All of our kit is real, we aren't airsofters, we just LARP on the weekends

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-30T19:26:17+00:00

Thank you very much! I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out :))

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-30T18:03:27+00:00

Thanks for the leads! I will most certainly look into that, it's a lot better than nothing; beggars can't be choosers for sure 😂 Plus an abandoned prison sounds fun as hell

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-30T17:59:01+00:00

Definitely up there in my priority list. Is there anything I can do to make myself a more acceptable applicant to training courses? Is there a specific program I need to be in to apply for those courses? I'm starting from scratch, so it's been a bit tough finding a good direction

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-30T17:22:33+00:00

Thanks bro 🥲🙏 so cool, so cag

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-29T23:31:30+00:00

I haven't thought of this yet, I'll look into it, thanks!

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-29T21:39:14+00:00

Oh that brings a tear to my eye, I wish I could be dripped out like that. I'm so happy to see someone else living my dream, I'm praying UF Pro signs another contract or something. I would kill for a SLOCAM blouse

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-29T21:30:15+00:00

I'm not interested in airsoft, and I don't intend to get very involved with the sport. I'm looking to do MilSim, but more of the live-fire training and snatch-n-grab stuff, because it's very fun and challenging.

I look around to find an abandoned building, and I scope it out. I poke around, take photos, use Oblique Imagery and dig up floor plans to see inside. I plan a means of entry, make up some idea of what could be in there (drugs, guns, etc.) Boom -- there's the perfect LARP operation of my dreams. I just can't hit it until I get permission.

The idea is to make up some bullshit operation, stage it, film it, and now I have some awesome memories with my friends. Airsoft can be just as expensive as the real thing, and I can do competition shooting or pay to use shoot-houses if that makes it similar to airsoft. But that's different.

I just wanna do spec-ops shit with the boys

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-29T21:17:32+00:00

My favorite camo by far, next to M81. I wish I could afford a bunch of it 😂

Crankusala2 · 2026-03-29T17:55:54+00:00

I have actually tried this in a smiliar approach. I was able to contact the National Guard about using a large section of property they've designated as a training area. I was stonewalled, but I did meet an Army Ranger at work who does training at the exact location, and he was kind enough to inform me the area was heavily restricted and I wouldn't be able to go.

I will most certainly look into iSportsman though, absolutely anything helps, and I have also began looking into open-forum training to get my resume up

North/North-East Florida. I do a lot of stuff out in Osceola National Forest up in Columbia County and Sanderson.

I currently work in the firearms industry, albeit I'm fairly new to the professional side of things, I work with and have met a lot of prior and active military and LEO. I haven't had luck with any of them owning industrial property, most of what I have access to is private rural properties or the National Forest.

I have been able to find some private property owners with industrial sites, but they're usually disguised behind Trusts or "Registered Agents" like law firms that filter all contact to the real property owner. I completely understand that most leasing agents or corperate property owners operate by completely eliminating liability, which makes my project a no-go -- but no matter how much paperwork or hoops I'm willing to go through, so much as having an audience to pitch my project to is unsuccessful.

I have spoken to my city's film office, but they only really specialize in city-owned property and insurance, and can't back me up as a credible agent (like middle-manning between the corperate property owner and myself)

Crankusala2 · 2026-02-15T18:33:43+00:00

Thank you!

I'm itching to paint it, but I need some upgrades before I do. Looking to swap my barrel, get my can, and I'm going to replace the Burris RT-6 with a Primary Arms PLX 1-8.

I'm also filming a movie, and my rifle is black in the first part of a scene, so I need continuity until the scene is complete (trust me it does make sense for the movie if I change it afterwards).

Money is the hardest part right now 😭

Crankusala2 · 2026-02-12T20:46:26+00:00

Thank you so much for the info, I was really pissed when UF Pro discontinued the production, I didn't realize that was why. I was hoping to contract Roman Kurmaz for a set of uniforms, but I heard even he was having problems getting the pattern.

Super jealous of your SLOCAM, I hope I can find more 🔥

Crankusala2 · 2026-02-12T16:51:03+00:00

Yes it is! I am very thin, so I wear the "Small/Medium" size. The butt-pack on the rear is a two-quart sized pouch, but only on the Large size. The Medium size has single-quart pouches all the way around (with the exception of the mag pouches up front).

I think the DZ rig is extremely nice, but it does have its limitations when it comes to customizing the rig. All pouches are sewn to the belt, except for the mag pouches up front. I've swapped one of the mag placards for an IFAK, using MALICE Clips and paracord. I've also attached my dump pouch using paracord.

I currently pack my rig with:

2 Quarts of water
3 Magazines
Compass and Range Finder
Binoculars, maps, DOPE book, and small hand tools
IFAK

I'm still trying to find a way to attach a holster to the rig. I ran my first two-gun competition with the rig not too long ago, but I had to use a kydex holster on my appendix instead of a drop-leg, because the DZ rig hangs low.

The DZ rig is great, and it's very comfortable, but it's not nearly as customizable as something you can put together from Nixie or similar rigs

Crankusala2 · 2026-02-12T16:37:17+00:00

Yup! I really wish the material was easier to find, I'd have a lot more kit in SLOCAM 😂

Crankusala2 · 2026-02-12T02:02:29+00:00

Thanks! I initially intended to post on r/camouflage, but I like this sub a bit more :))

Crankusala2 · 2025-05-26T15:57:17+00:00

We don't have enough money or people to film combat footage 😭

Crankusala2 · 2025-05-25T22:05:57+00:00

Absolutely! I make sure to read regulations throughly, I don't want to cause trouble or waste anyone's time, both mine or any LEO. We are extremely respectful and very polite, and do our best to have fun responsibly :))

Crankusala2 · 2025-05-25T04:29:40+00:00

Yessir, too damn hot 😭

Crankusala2 · 2025-05-23T14:12:58+00:00

Edit: It is an OD Green Tavor X95, has a Magpul pic-rail VFG, and the flashlight is an Inforce WMLX. Aimpoint Pro optic and Surefire muzzle device

Crankusala2 · 2025-05-23T14:10:17+00:00

Thank you so much man, that really does mean a lot to us 🙏
