Survival training -- slighty off topic
All,
A friend of mine asked me if I knew some place that was offering "survival training" (not sure exactly what he includes under that term). I told him that I didn't but I expected that someone here would be able to point him in the right direction or suggest where to look. I think he's interested in basic survival techniques for SHTF day.
Anyone have any advice? He lives in Indiana, PA but seemed willing to travel..
Thanks.
Just another gun-toting liberal
"According to the General Social Science Survey, about 30% of people who describe themselves as Liberal own a handgun. That works out to about 8 million gun toting Liberals, and doesn't even include moderates or long-gun owning Liberals."

Re: Survival training -- slighty off topic
Forum member "pinto" offered classes this past year but has since deployed and won't be available again until 2009 IIRC.
Dunno what you're friend has in mind but pinto was offering straight-away stuff as opposed to the "EOTWAWKI / bunker / zombie" mentality.
We're going to sponsor host his classes when he gets back.
For now you can visit his website and DL a brochure.

Re: Survival training -- slighty off topic
Boy Scouts of America actually is a pretty good choice.
And F.I.R.E. Institute for weapons training would be a good choice.
Start there. If you need more. Keep looking.
If you can't survive one night in the woods comfortably, then you need the basics anyway. Carrying simple supplies in your car or a light pack any time you leave the house can be a great start.The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control....
