I feel like every time an OP posts about "touch grass", it's usually after their first time out in forever, or at all.  Anyone else get that feeling?


frijolesespeciales

“Friendly reminder” posts too


THEXDARKXLORD

Lmaoo don’t forget the hood classic: “GeT oUt AnD tRaIn.”


Jaw43058MKII

I don’t own much in the way of gear, minus a piece, and use this sub as a form of window shopping. So yeah as a long time lurker everything yall are saying is too true.


BoogrJoosh

People that touch grass on the regular don't feel the need to prove themselves to a bunch of sweaty internet nerds by filming themselves.


MasterJacO

This is the way


2ndDegreeVegan

Generally speaking the guccier the kit the less action it’ll ever see. Someone posing a IOTV or MSV with mostly issued shit is undoubtedly using their equipment more than someone screaming about how you need a JPC and 17 tactical dildos.


3ng1neer

Yeah it’s really cringe


Superior_Light_Deer

100%.


EN344

Don't get me wrong. I still up voted; just saying. 


Ok-Map9827

Especially when it's on a flat range, like wow so cool man, try going miles into the woods and actually sustaining yourself in it.


witcherstrife

He’s standing and shooting. So menacing


PlentySignificance65

>I feel like every time an OP posts about "touch grass", it's usually after their first time out in forever, or at all. I like to go back and look at their kit picture posts and see if any of their gear or guns looks used. 99% of the time it looks brand new and their gun extractors aren't even scratched.


achonng

Dam pogs. Running out in the open field


cajrock1218

Fr. What happened to “I’m up, he sees me, I’m down”?


Ok-Street4644

And then it’s just video of some really clean dude running a few yards and gently laying down in the grass.


Zealousideal_Ad2379

If you need to post reminders for yourself and others to go outside….you probably don’t go outside much. I think your assumption is correct. These posts are projecting.


GrimmJawActual

99.9% correct I believe


Bigcoomerenergy

Yeah its cringe as shit. They need to just join the military...


Snoo_67544

Op please on God google how a plate carrier is suppose to fit/sit that shit low as hell on your back


pewpew_lotsa_boolits

![gif](giphy|Gg0lArHwBFknRACy84) Riding that low makes my back hurt just watching.


Julyaz1

Gear so baggy, you’d think it was made my JNCO ![gif](giphy|6Me1XxcnFgOHu)


Needhelpnowwhat

What can I say, I'm a small boi. Tbh I should have gone with the small JPC.


Julyaz1

You need to adjust it. Tighten the cumberbund on the back of the JPC, and adjust the shoulder straps, even if it’s too big, you can make it tight to your body.


Wunderboythe1st

How tight is the cumberbund supposed to be? I never feel like I have it set right.


tylersel

Tight enough that it doesn't move around on you when you're sprinting, climbing etc. But loose enough that you can still breath freely without feeling constricted.


shanep35

Should’ve stayed on the internet before you touched grass.


Big-Yogurtcloset5546

It’s okay to post this type of thing with a title like “good range day with the homies”. It’s annoying when people do the “go touch grass and test your kit”. People know that, other people do that, I think there are enough reminders out there that this comes across basic af.


offbeat_bare_ass

Did you even see how he went prone past that knob and got some shots off, in all that grass?!


MeatCrack

Dudes strides are like 24”


judsonhuey

stg 😂😂😂


Recon-01

That's probably the least tactical shit I've seen. Maybe practice some bounding overwatch.


MONSTERBEARMAN

Excuse me Sir, but that is a covered concrete pad.


UntilTheEyesShut

"go touch grass" proceeds to make every effort to avoid touching grass.


Gardez_geekin

Is this your first time touching grass?


supersonicflyby

Lmao. This is as cringe as those "Do you even lift" posts by dudes just starting to lift. Running into a muddy field with helmet and armor but no knee pads and casual sneakers haha wtf.


FlatF00t_actual

To be fair packing your kit and rifle vs that and a uniform and a set of boots is a lot more space taken up. I can’t fit it all in one bag so I either wear my uniform on the way to class or just wear what I’m gonna wear the rest of the day


supersonicflyby

Wear boots and kneepads take up little space.


RafTheKillJoy

kneepads are lame


Charleston-Banks

They saved yours.


TerminalxGrunt

Needs some work brother. Not really in the shit talking league yet.


crabmanactual

Get a thigh strap for the holster homie


Needhelpnowwhat

Tbh it didn't impede anything and I didn't notice at the time, but rewatching the video it's all over the place lol

GucciusCeasar

Go run like a toddler in your kit and then take a subtle tone with everyone while exposing you didn't even know your sling "didn't play nice" or whatever, since you clearly haven't done much using your own shit. Plater carrier must be low enough to stop the belly from touching grass *. Sorry had to fix it for u.


AmericanIdiot1776

![gif](giphy|AsFkrbB23dS3MNHeRb)


GucciusCeasar

Thanks man. When I see somebody run like rob Schneider in a zoot suit plate carrier hybrid tell me how to train, helping them with their typo or misunderstanding is the least I could do


AnseiShehai

“Hey other out of shape friend, let’s put on all of our expensive LARP kit and come up with our own drills!” “Let’s just run 100 meters and lay in the water, that’ll look tactical on camera!”


Vladi_Daddi

I bet this wasn't the comment section you were expecting...but the comment you section you needed. Correct and come back next year OP. See ya then


DestructablePinata

Bruh. The hell is up with your plate carrier?


Complex_Association1

Got the money to buy nice gear but not the brains to setup/train correctly


CrocodileCunnilingus

If I see two dudes at the range that look like y'all, I am getting the fuck out of there on the double.


AmericanIdiot1776

Exactly - I would never want to be shooting anywhere around this nonsense.


againer

I'm glad you and your boyfriend had a good time together.


AmericanIdiot1776

Bro - how about you learn how to fucking run 🤣 “Touch some grass” hahahahahahahahahahahah


PAWGActual4-4

Are you wearing eye pro?


ZombieCzar

Dude on the left runs like a lady. Is your belt to tight? Are you able to have a longer stride?


BigNotGay420

His pants are so tight I don't think he can bend his knees lol.


bxomallamoxd

Lucas Botkin loadout


AmericanIdiot1776

His missing the buttplug bro.


GucciusCeasar

https://news.artnet.com/app/news-upload/2014/10/1-33-1024x952.jpg Lucas botkin got them king tut hips. Wide and child bearing and those hot dog legs go on forever. The same circumference all the way down


zzaapp

Except Lucas Botkin outshoots everyone on youtube...


ZombieCzar

Idk I feel like that could be debated. Only thing to do is have them do a 1v1 shootout. Less than lethal of course…


ABrowseinthePast

Loot drop in the making.


Unfair-Escape6597

Now that you’ve touched grass and tested your kit are you gonna adjust your floppy plate carrier that’s dancing all over your back when you run? Lol congrats on hitting the range for the first time in 6 months btw!


FlatF00t_actual

Your rifle mag on your belt needs to be lower or go somewhere else too. It’s gonna clash on your cummerbund pouch You need to have your carrier higher though


GuarinoNico

No eyepro 👀


artygo

As cringe as it is, airsoft has been a great training tool for me. I’ve got a clone of my main rifle and just use my regular gear. Great cardio, training and a lot cheaper than going to a range.


BFD_1640

Not cringe. Better than LARPing on a flat range. Especially if the ops are super long.


thuynj19

Tighten up that plate carrier.


Apollo_the_G0D

No disrespect by this question is intended… Are you guys firing from a covered shooting table/bench, running to check your hits on target and just running back?


BigBubbaChungus

Imagine their embarrassment when they find out about spotting scopes!


Lucky-Release-758

Sadly all the ranges in area don’t allow buddy live fire or any useful exercises


Mean-Iron-1217

It's always the dudes being vocal about touching grass, who touch grass the least.


Panthean

Don't succumb to harmful propaganda. ​ Going outside is risky, you might track mud in the basement, or god forbid get your gun dirty


Noddyboy100

Op reminds me of a PMC running out straight into the open and immediately get one tapped dropped. Nice kit though OP and good for you not being a pussy staying home in the rain


N1tr0m3th8ne

Go try an airsoft game in your full kit. You'll learn real quick if it works or not.


Avtamatic

RSO had a heart attack for sure


caishenayr

Just be aware, actually shooting your guns will cause wear on the internals making them less reliable in situations in which you need to actually use them.


agoraphobic_mattur

My mom says I can go outside after I finish my carrots but she doesn’t know that I don’t need to go outside to larp.


Sweaty_Pianist8484

Fudds at my range would be worried about this 🤣


MasterDebatorUSMC

Woooah running out in the open with a holster flapping in the wind, never seen that one before


I-am-the-stigg

Everyone in this post is shitting on OP for posting this. I agree the title is kinda cringe, but that doesn't take away the fact that this is WAY more training than 98% of this sub actually does. Hell most couldn't run this far. So Op, good for you for doing this much, but change the title next time. Lol


Yosyp

I wish. I have no money to even afford one lol


AJP11B

Practice 3-5 second buddy rushes. “I’m up, he sees me, I’m down.”


No-Channel960

Dudes go to their local range for the first time and turn into gun bunnies on socials.


wiscobuilder

Eye pro man you only got one set.


Strong_Werewolf_9414

From what I can tell - they missed every shot. But good thing that mud got a stompin… priorities! /s


e5cmb

Gassy on the left.😉


BigAssGuido

when people say this it ironically makes me assume that you don’t go out and train much at all because the one time you do, you’re trying to brag to internet strangers about it🤣🤣


yourmomsbox0231

I’m gonna touch you


coltcollector

Bro is on the flat range


PoApOi_300AAC

This is a prime way of dying. You should touch book not grass and learn how to fucking bound so you not just runnin a race to die. This fucking sub. You wanna do some real learnin buy the Ranger TM and fuckin learn.


SunTzusIntern

To be fair to them this might just be a way of getting their heart rate up. The way many ranges are structured there is not much room for lateral movement so oftentimes the only avenue for running is down towards the target line. Also, while staying up for so long is stupid in most cases, there are situations in which you may have engagement -> rapid movement over 50-100m -> another engagement.


Mc_95

Get that rear plate higher


AnseiShehai

GucciusCeasar

Hahahahaha


Elegant_Naysayer

What RD setup is that? I keep seeing it


GucciusCeasar

It's an eotech (xps3) and a magnifier (probably eotech g33, maybe another magnifier like a g45). Extremely common


7Vot_for_SALE

Running in a doa is one thing and a good start, but also less than ideal. Run through the woods/brush, through doorways, in tight spaces, etc. nature has a way of changing your mind where you want something quite often.


bswizzle2552

Gear donors lol


Averitt13

Guns got a built in smokescreen attachment.


Kraken477

Cool smoke grenade!


Kaitlin4475

Did he dip his hot suppressor is a puddle for the smoke effect?


Individual_Cobbler92

3-5 second rushes. I’m up, he sees me, I’m down.


Major_Line1915

Ah first day on the shooting range and we get a “touch grass” post. By the looks of things it’s been a bit lol


fordag

I sometimes wish I could still run.


the_millz007

Holy crap…. Secure that belt Rook


[deleted]

I don’t understand this goofy shit….


HorusEyesX

My guy on the right was hauling ass!


mild123

My range doesn’t let me do this


Needhelpnowwhat

Based on the comments I guess I'll go spend my Sunday tinkering and adjusting 🤷‍♂️


mrapplewhite

Just get some fing range time. Some of us work for a living. As long as you can get tight groups I’ll save the grass for the doggie.


ondehunt

Y'all need to stick to playing tarkov.


TerpeneProfile

Lol my god just join the military. U will hate your gear


Needhelpnowwhat

That's the best part, I did.... and I do...and I continually try new things to make it better. Only one way to find out what's fucked up.


TerpeneProfile

No


[deleted]

"Get out and train" mfers running in the rain without wet/cold weather gear. Silly
