- I Am A Prepper Like Many With No Professional Background
Many in the emergency preparedness community benefit from a professional background in law enforcement or the military. Most do not.
I always appreciate when preppers that have professional experience chime in with their suggestions and advice. It is greatly appreciated. I myself do not have any of that experience and anything I can learn from those that do is very helpful. The issue with some of these skills regarding self defense, medical, gardening, communications and anything else more advanced is that they have to be practiced. Storing away surplus supplies is really only limited by affordability and space. The skills required to do it are very basic. But the skills to use specialized equipment require practice, professional training and repetition. Which is why I do what I can with what I have. Like I said, I am like most of you. Just doing my best to be ready for whatever comes our way.

Are you just like me? Or if you do have that level of experience, what might you need to improve on in your preparedness? And of course, any advice, suggestions or anecdotes from that experience is always appreciated.

It never will ever feel like enough. You're outliving the majority brother. I'm just a professional learner! Still got alot to work on. Getting ahold of Jace tomorrow. 👍🏻🤙🏼💪🏼
My goal isn't long term it's more, to be sustainable in the present. Because in the long enough time line of the apocalypse. Yall can have that shit. I'm going full warlord and probably won't make it a year.
What suppressor you running on that rifle?
not really, full disclosure for reasons I won't go into I've had to reorganize my whole living space recently and I just realized watching this I'm not even sure where the heck my gas mask is.
Just like you. Don’t have the benefit of professional training (Kinda wishing I had one of those jobs now). Train train train, that’s all we can do
Fun fact...your local military member is less prepared than much of you. You're doing a good job and keep it up
😂 💯 Facts.
A lot of them, actually
Haha well hopefully I can help them as much as they have helped me.
#Facts and I am a Navy Veteran granted I just did my 4 and got out to go to go to college but I have learned more from Magic and other prepper channels than when I was in the Navy regarding preparedness!
@@MagicPrepper honestly man, as an active duty member, it makes me happy to see people like you and your followers trying to get better. No one is coming to save us if it hit the fan, and you guys are trying to get prepared. Keep up the good work. And don't forget Amazon has cheap stuff for you guys to train with for combat casualty care. Keep learning skills and getting better 👌🏾
Midway USA needs to expand into gardening equipment. Best of both worlds!
Hmmmmmm
Tactical rake?
Giant e-tools!!!
Non toxic garden safe ammo.
We should all email them and politely ask "where da hoe's at?"
Former military, active LE here. Love ur channel. U don’t have to have a “professional” background to be very well trained. There r so many good training options available these days. Keep up the good work!
Agreed. Good comment
Well thanks for the input and for the support! I appreciate it.
Balance😂❤❤
Thank you for your Service ! And being a Part of This Community.
nailed I am the same
Your resume will not be required in SHTF. Its OJT. Prior training will only facilitate your ability to adapt. 🤠
Keep this in mind. When a guy gets military experience, that's fantastic - BUT it's always in context of what you can do with the full might of the U.S. government backing you up (resupplies, reinforcements, rescues, etc.). Doing lone wolf SHTF stuff / training, changes the game fundamentally / profoundly. A large portion of X-grunts or LE would have to learn this stuff as well. For SHTF, overall, you may be well ahead of many of them in skills.
Bingo. Don't train to fight like a soldier. Find another way.
Finding a new tribe is important, teach what you know and learned in what MOS you were. You were a cook? Cool. You fixed trucks? Cool. You were a front line 11b or 03whatever? Cool. Teach and preach, but be ready to listen and learn. We're all on the side of freedom and the Constitution regardless of whether we raised our right hand and said some shit at a meps years ago 😂. Stay safe out there 👍
Dude the usgov couldn't do shit in the middle east. IDK if they could handle millions of people on the fritz during SHTF. They'd probably just become some sort of death squad
Years ago I spent some time in Canada working with an old man from Manitoba, helping him build a cabin.
He talked about growing up in northern Manitoba during the depression. Middle of nowhere, living in the bush. He told me he didn't even know there was a depression until he went down to Winnipeg.
I've never forgotten that. Best plan there is, live in a place so far out no one will notice you.
I used to live just like that. Island in a lake in northern Canada.
Now I live in Nowhere, Wyoming, end of the line. But there's a dirt road leading to my place. Oh, well.
Having a prepper aunt and uncle who live out in the sticks is a huge privilege I have and need to take advantage of more often
Good Sir, I did 10 years active duty, 5 of which were in special operations and 4 deployments to Iraq, and Afghanistan and I still watch your content. I learned a lot, and a lot about myself in difficult environments. That said, what I absorb from your channel often challenges my thinking and approach to many subjects from different angles I am not used to. You’re doing something right, keep it up.
Thanks for your service.
I’m prior service Army and Coast Guard. Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s all about discipline, attention to detail and situational awareness. There is a wealth of knowledge still available on RUclips for the time being. Take care, God Bless and seek the education that is available and continue to prepare for what’s coming.
I took a year off and lived in the American West in a canvas tent. People think that as soon as you get outside of a city, the world turns into Mad Max, and it really doesn’t.
I’m in the same boat brother, but thanks to you and others on here, I have gained priceless knowledge that cannot be taken from memory. 👊
There is so much information available for free it's insane. A great blessing.
What about the CIAs memory taker
Weapons always came easy to me having owned my first rifle at eight after outshooting my father with his rifle at the range. From that point on I went hunting every year going forward. I was blessed to have a father who would spend the time to teach me life and living skills on the regular. I also had a great mentor in the old Frenchman across the street who would also take me hunting, fishing and woods wisdom many will never use or learn. He could literally smell deer, I still dunno how he managed that. The Boy Scouts taught me a lot too. Like CPR, other first aid, bushcraft, wilderness survival, land navigation and one match fire building in any weather. All these things I was proficient at very early in life. Growing up I spent more time exploring in the woods and traipsing through the mountains than watching tv or playing video games. We had neither until I was past the point of wanting to do more than watch the "Rat Patrol" once a week or "McHales Navy". I was introduced to CBRN issues in during the Cuban/Soviet missile crisis, great loss when Kennedy was killed, war refugees when Cambodians were sent to our town and anger because they had to be. I enlisted in the military before I graduated high school rather than attend college. My grandfather was an electrician building ships during WWII, my father was on a ship during Korea, I was in the military during Vietnam and after. I participated in maneuvers on the East German border in the seventies. All of that and much, much more like learning trapping from one of the last legendary mountain men and on. I have been a prepper, we called it survivalism, for fifty years and more. This is a long, introduction of a few of the many experiences I have had to show that I am as prepared as most anyone can be. Yet, I can say without reservation that you'll always be lacking something in knowledge or experience even after having survived contact with some enemy. I pray that you and your followers, including myself, never have to experience what I have in my time here on Earth. My time here likely grows short due to much abuse and damage both from myself and others, so it will be up to others, younger and stronger than me, like you to carry the light of freedom forward. Don't let anyone belittle what you are doing because you are doing the best that you can. Let your inner light and common sense guide you. No one can ask more. God Bless us every one.
Bro, coming from a former Career Firefighter and current LEO, I've enjoyed your content for years, I appreciate your authenticity and you staying true to who you are and who you have developed into. Good on you.
you may not have training, etc., but you do have one thing that helps a whole lot....and that is MONEY.
There is never enough it seems.
Time learning sometimes does cost money, but what you get out of it, is priceless!
@@patmiller7045 Nobody stopping others from creating their own channel and doing the same. MP likely started with just the camera on his phone with zero subscribers. He also probably spent months cranking out videos making absolutely nothing and given absolutely nothing and probably thought about saying screw it thousands of times.
Funny thing is. If there is someone making money off people watching their videos that they don’t like them making money off them. There is a little button that says unsubscribe, and poof they are no longer making money or getting free stuff by them watching videos. I’ve hit that magic button more than once when the value of me watching a free video wasn’t worth my viewership..
@lanejohnson7656 if you've watched for awhile, he used to make videos in his kitchen, was just getting into the life, was quite a bit more out of shape let's say. He's come a long way to get where he's at. Both physically and financially. Thank you for not hating capitalism my friend.
@@lanejohnson7656
Yep
Retired LEO here. Been through plenty of training with weapons and still practice hard. You may not have received training but been watching your channel and finding there is always something new to learn. Thank you for what you do. Continue the good work brother!
Hi quick curiosity question. In your opinion if something like an emp were to happen would the police continue their duties or do you think they would bug in/ bug out with family/ eachother? I’ve always been curious to hear from an LEO about this bc I assume they would bug in/ out. Thanks! Have a good one
@@scannerbowie2965 In my opinion, I think it would be that a lot of officers will honor their oath and still perform the duties they swore to. Will there be some that leave, I am sure there will be. But in my heart, the majority will still be there. I was around for 911 ( retired NYPD) it was a crazy time and a lot of uncertainty but we rose to the occasion and many officers have died since then due to illness they received while performing search and rescue. If that is not a testament to the dedication to their oath, I don’t know what is. God bless brother! Be safe.
@@scannerbowie2965 this question is asked often. when the point comes that we cannot communicate, answer calls, or book anyone in to jail...what does an LEO have left to do? it remains to be seen. also, at a certain point LEOs will put their families first
One of my side jobs when I was in the USAF was as a shelter manager for one of the barrack on Minot AFB. When they held the annual "Buckskin Rider" exercises, we were always all dead by 3:00 PM and I always thought that was optimistic.
Man I have no idea what those exercises were but I am definitely interested now.
@@MagicPrepper They were a simulated nuclear attack.
@@dakotabob10 I'm glad I'm west of Minot. But... it's still too close lol
I don't want to be a Debbie Downer but the reality of the situation is that I live within 5 miles of a Minuteman Missile Launch Control Facility and within 2 miles of a nuclear missile silo. There is no way that I am going to survive a nuclear missile exchange. Those of us that live in our area of North Dakota are SOL if we have a nuclear war. The only people that will survive the exchange will be the two officers that man the underground capsule at the Launch Control Facility.
@@dakotabob10 True. But what if the problem turns out to be gangs of "newcomers" with stolen weapons and vehicles, out foraging when the Government cheese runs out?
Your first threat is illness or injury; second is water, food, and shelter. You will not be protecting family and home from the 1st SSR airborne. You will be facing gangs or individuals looking for an easy target.
I’ve enjoyed your channel for a long time. I also greatly appreciate your honesty in this video!! It takes fortitude to admit your background! I’ve “been around a bit “ have “seen “ things. Then I watch other channels and realize how little I’ve seen 😎!! Bottom line, we ALL learn from each other, be it a little or a bunch! Keep up the great work!!
Patriot Nurse offers online Nursing Classes. FYI. She's very sharp.
I’m a vet 8 years and LEO retired with 26 active and 9 years as a consultant. You don’t need a high degree of training but you do need basic fundamentals and train from there. Make training fun.
I'm about the same place. I'm no professional anything. I live in an urban college town apartment complex. They frown on anything and everything, including a flag hanging in your private property garage. Yes, made my neighbor move because he had a flag hanging inside his garage. So yeah, nothing preparedness related, certainly nothing loud, not even the T.V., so yeah. That's about it.
Good stuff MP.. You brought up coms. Suggestion for a non firearm video would be setting up like a beofang radio. I mean realistically that’s about the most popular for the prepared citizen..
Other than that keep doing what you are doing. I’m of the belief some people don’t take security as serious as they should.. I read a lot of comments on prepper channels that people seem to think unprepared people are magically going to form community and sit around a campfire singing kumbaya because they might have in a localized natural disaster or something. I’m also of the opinion many people don’t fully comprehend the target they put on their back by having preparedness discussions with others. I’ve had those discussions and I’d be willing to bet 99% of the people I had them with still don’t have a months worth of water, food and other bare bones basic needs put back. 100% of them are firearm owners and although they most of them don’t have a lot of ammo, 100% of them have enough ammo to give someone a very bad day when they are desperate.. I don’t care how you shake it and how you went about the discussion. If you had the discussion of the need to get prepared with someone they are heavily going to assume you have supplies. They don’t know what you have, but when they have nothing they know you have more than they do..
Will many unprepared try to work together to form community? Yeah I’m sure they will. But how exactly is that going to work out when there is pretty much no supplies to begin with? You can’t throw seeds in the ground and they magically instantly ready for harvest, assuming you have the seeds to plant to begin with. How long will it take for tempers to flare and infighting when everyone is starving.. Another demographic of people will likely band together as well. That’s the unprepared that has nothing and out looking to take, no matter how little it is and by all means necessary.. I’m of the opinion the unprepared people who tried to set around a campfire and sing kumbaya will be among the take demographic sooner rather than later.. If you prep a years worth of food and SHTF and you form a community with 364 unprepared people guess what. You had a days worth of food and now you are just as screwed as they are.. It’s literally common sense..
I’ve lived thru a localized natural disaster that left a lot of people without power for more than a month. Even with the grocery store having a natural gas generator and the ability to drive 25 miles to get gas for gas generators a lot of people were still losing their minds… There was also more chiefs than Indians trying to run the show and causing all sorts of infighting when not getting their way. People trying to take control and give people orders and absolutely refusing to listen to people that where specialized in something they have absolutely zero clue about. One of the worst ones is the disaster manager for the county. He literally asked 3 diesel mechanics what was wrong with a piece of equipment and argued with each one of them and saying they don’t know what they are talking about when he is lucky to put fuel in the damn thing.. That’s the kinda BS people have to look forward to with the community that’s going to magically happen. And mind you this was a local event with light at the end of the tunnel with access to a stoked grocery store and fuel availability just a less inconvenient. I can only imagine the chitshow an actual SHTF will look like.
I am a medically retired Navy Corpsman, former deputy, current paramedic and I can tell you this, there are a great many civilians I have met that are better trained than I am. With that said I am always looking to step up my game. It is easy to do things with the full backing of the US government but it is a whole other game once you have to do this without that funding. All of this prepping takes tons of money and lets face it Obiden is doing his level best to make sure none of us have the spare money to be ready. You seem to have your head screwed on tight and so I just subbed.
Magic Prepper, You're amazing! I hit the like button as soon as I saw it!
Hello MP! Love your content. I continue learning and building my toolset based on many, many of your posts. Keep up the great work and spot-on content. I’m from Mississippi but have been all over the USA and in your neck of the woods. The winters can be brutal up north. Thanks for doing what you do!
I appreciate the trained skills veterans have (my husband is a vet). But those are not the only skills helpful for SHTF. In fact, you may never need to fend off attackers or marauders. Much more likely you'll need survival, networking, problem-solving, construction, and food production skills to counteract a failing economy, high goods prices, and a fractured society. We can't all be commandos; in fact, most are not. Train the best way you can and share the knowledge you gain with others. That's what we should expect from each other. I'll take a friend who's spent time training regularly over someone who learned some skills a long time ago and never kept those skills honed or is too proud to share his/her knowledge. Community over perceived elite status. JS. If you never pretend to be something you're not and be honest, you'll always command respect.
Many years with a badge of some sort, first responder deputy ect. Still love my range time. Back home in the ozarks i just walk out the door and shoot. Here in the high desert I jump in the side by side and go shoot.. Lately I've been practicing drive by and mechanized assault. Fun stuff there Manard
If you want to do a in depth playlist with a medical professional that would be really cool. Part of the problem is where to find the info, which I think is mostly books or school for some things. (Chemistry included)
Biochem biotech bachelors and no military training, but a prepper and training as much as I can to be the best version of myself should I ever to use those skills. While simultaneously hoping I never have to 🙏🏽
Love the channel and your message Magic! Keep it up amigo
Military here; you’re probably better trained and prepared than a lot of folks I deployed with. You might lack some ‘field’ experience but there’s certain things you don’t want to experience unless you have to, and your training looks pretty damn legit. Keep it up man, love the content.
I served in combat arms in the Army for many years. Yes I did get the training it's been many years ago, I still need to keep up on all the new skill levels and training I do try to keep it up with it, it can get overwhelming. Great video.
I love your videos. There is lots of people just like you
I have military background & training. A small recommendation for my side: get rid of your beard if you want the gas mask to function properly. Emergency shaving equipment should be also part of your gear. Decontamination with soap water after a contamination event is also a must. Thank you for your videos & it is important to have discussions about the topics because military and police don’t prepare you for SHTF events.
It is said that a certain German dictator shaved his mustache to the iconic shape because he couldn’t get a seal on his gas mask during a mustard gas attack. He had to use his field knife in the trench.
@@troybuchanan8676 🤣👍
“ it’s better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war “
Henry Knox is a great example of being a self-taught patriot (by trade he was a bookseller in Boston). I would emplore anyone to read what he managed to pull off that led to the British fleet leaving Boston Harbor (Dorchester Heights).
You're not giving yourself enough credit, Magic! The truth: if a person is young, healthy or preferably both, that individual has a tremendous leg-up for all bad situations. Right now, having a chronic illness is the worst possible circumstance when thinking about a SHTF/WROL situation. Sometimes I think this is part of the reason world events are unfolding as they are....
Its because you dont claim to be somebody / something youre not , is why i watch your channel.
Thank you sir.
OK a lot of your videos I raise an eye brow at .. this one nailed it!!! I am retired recce and this is probably one of your best
Fun fact. If you plan on running and gunning when SHTF, you probably gonna have a bad time.
Most of us preppers do so to survive, then thrive, and do something akin to rebuilding our lives to a comfortable and sustainable level. Avoiding unnecessary conflict goes a long way to doing that.
When friends talked about killing 'intruders' post SHTF I asked them what they plan on doing with the bodies. You know, the things that rot, cause disease, and may be missed by friends. Disposing of those things could cause more problems than you are prepared to deal with.
All work and no play…makes a Prepper a dull person. I test stuff out all the time. Will it work when the stuff is being used with augmented support equipment. Another great video.
I do enjoy these things for sure.
Gotta start somewhere and hopefully some of us have done so years ago because it's not a cheap thing to do but it's necessary and requires critical thinking and planning.
Good on you bro. You came a long way 👍👍
Great "barrel side chat" 👌. I gotta say, that cerakote job is very nice. Way to go bud, no i gotta do one of mine 😂
Maybe you have no professional background but, you're self-trained and better prepared than about 94% of the rest of the country! That's pretty good! Also, you have a sponsor, Midway USA. You make a living at this.
Dude. Love the message. You are like me but with more land 😂. I'm in the burbs but got 10k gallons of water in my pool. Have the gas mask but would get some looks wearing it at the indoor range. Got food stored but could use more. We can only grow so much in a backyard. All that said, I too concentrate on being proficient with firearms to be able to protect what little I do have.
An in the ground pool in one's backyard is definitely leveling up... 👍
Ur right brother don’t let anyone get you down
I joined the Air Force in 1975 and the Goast Guard in 1977. I shot the M-16A1 and the 1911 in both Boot Camps but I was a Machineay Technician and I saved a few lives but NO Combat Training at all.
I don't have a personal military or LE background either due to lifelong physical issues but that doesn't stop me from being prepared as best as possible. I did start out my life in and around military installations as my Dad served 22.5 years in the US Army so I attribute my desire to be prepared to that early exposure to military life. Striving to be as self sufficient as possible is something I've worked on for many years, still working on it. We do the best we can with what we have.
I’ve got a pro background In LE, fire, and EMS. None of it really matters. All the info you’ll learn in an academy for any of the above is here on the internet, if not better info. The biggest difference to me would be some experience and practice In real medical scenarios. But being a cop doesn’t make you a shooter or gunfighter, being a fireman doesn’t mean you’re doing technical rescues every day, even being a medic doesn’t mean you’re doing CPR and fixing GSWs every day. Theyre all few and far between. And with certain skills like CBRN on the fire side, even if you’re experienced and know how to use the equipment, if you don’t personally own any of that, it means nothing. I think civilians have every tool at their disposal to be prepared. We first responders are just like you.
In Missouri we own the well water on our land , many years of water .
Most likely can't Garden yet on North Dakota.
Good video
Really like your practical approach, helps us realistically prepare !
You have great videos, and I like to check myself against how you do things in order to keep my ideas and skills from getting stale....
Cleanliness is important like washing your feet and socks keeping your feet clean as they keep you moving
Agreed
Love Midway. Been a customer since the early 90's, the mail order days. lol I don't have any actual firearm training, plenty of hand-to-hand, even with some weapons. Reading the comments, it seems you're doing lots of the right things.
My opinion ? Keep getting better every day. Train physically. Do some kettle bell swings, then pick up an arm and shoot while still breathing hard.
I'm doing a very small garden this year, after skipping the last few. I did practice foraging for local plants though, and still do. To me, that's just as important. Just have to be sure the plants haven't been sprayed, so I stick to the land I know.
You seem to be a lot more prepared than you think. Im sure with just the preparation you put in to get your videos up to snuff is so much more continued training than many. Keep-on, keepin-on.
MP - I never understood the "water can go bad" argument..if you store tap water in sealed clean water drums, it's much better than pond water. You simply filter the water. What am I missing?
MAGIC - I had not known about about the QD inserts. I researched this and found there are type1 and type2 mount cups. These are only needed on some applications.
In my case, I believe the MOE stock does not need these, but I think they are situationally necessary.
Can you do a short video on this - perhaps in conjunction w/ Midway?
I have purchased items from midway USA when you recommend them. My favorite sleeping bags for example.
I fully understand and can relate fully. I have an extensive background which helps me in the prepper sense.
Firefighter, EMT, 911 Dispatcher, Advanced Communications knowledge, Ham Radio, Map reading, Hazmat training, Rescue training and general prepping skills/ability. I own several firearms and lack significantly in making the time to get out and train when I comes to improving my firearms skills. I'm making it a priority in a few weeks.
Thanks for the videos and information!!
You do a great job, Magic.
If there's one area i lack knowledge in the most it's got to be medical.
And that arrogant East Coast Nurse Prepper lady annoys me too much to watch.
Also i have some advice on how to enjoy growing your own food more.
#1! Buy a book or 2 by LOCAL EXPERTS.
HOUSTON AREA GARDENING by Bob Randall helped me so much, but it's obviously not for you.
2) Grow stuff you love.
For me that's Silver Queen corn, onions, broccoli (steamed with butter and Cajun seasoning I love it) watermelon....
And i love apples and have Golden Dorsett, Figi, and Gala. They won't produce every year but that's ok.
My grapefruit will.
Also dont forget the value of good mulch, and how healthy it is for the rest of your family to help with the garden/orchard ;)
Vitamin D, fresh air, exercise, grounding 😂
Thank you Magic !!!
Can you make more AR-15 videos bro? Those videos of your AR-15 videos were very helpful.
I will definitely be doing more! I appreciate the feedback.
@@MagicPrepper
Finally getting into that platform myself and been looking for modern good info
You are a better shot than 99% of the professionals.
Some cops are terrible shots.
Some Army people are cooks.
When I was an 11b in the 80's I was stationed at Schofield Barracks, HI.
We trained daily, I byoke my foot once and went to the ER and I remember an E7 doctor saying he would love to go out and "play army man" because he hasn't held a weapon since his basic training!
I was thinking to myself WTF.
Different MOS in the military might not have any defensive training, it just kinda soaked in when he said that. I was an E2 at the time and pretty green and just assumed all military were fighters, well they aren't.
MP does good on the prepping part, but S2 underground has comms covered.
S2 does great for sure.
I’ll be heading that way. Thanks for the heads up.
Yes he does. Fight in the shade
I always get good ideas when watching your videos, thanks man! 😊 👍
Thank you!!❤
I think many in this sphere get a little myopic about their preps. In as much as "buy and use exactly what I like and that's all you need." They forget that we all try to fill in the gaps. Try new things and such. Get yourself 40 cases of Vienna Sausages and a sling shot and that's ALL YOU NEED. Uh, no. Different people need different things in different places.
It is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war
I wanted to see him doing an opening where he has the red glasses on and he says you’re a magic pepper oh, but what kind of magic prepper you don’t know? 😎👍😂
Don't believe the lies, he's a fed 😉
Nah but thanks MP for all the info you put out for the community!
Haha no problem. The Feds really don't mind funding the channel and what not.
You’re very lucky to be able able to have you’re own range 👍use it and let the jealousy eat itself
Personally I’d build up your burms better but that takes a tractor and you might not have access to that yet
My neighbor came by today while I was shooting and we talked about adding some height to it. There is literally nothing behind it but it would still be better.
@@MagicPrepper
Right on!
You just never know where that bullet could end up, who might be going by out there etc and they travel quite a distance. Best to error on the side of safety when at all possible.
Being a combat vet who's done two tours in Afghanistan I find myself struggling with the food storage and growing food aspect your right we all are in different places but same common goal if we share information we can all thrive ..ignore the name I'm using wife's RUclips my phone screen is smashed 😂
For some reason this video Hit different, thanks for making it magic. Also thanks for putting in the work all the time and making these videos for us, maybe you don't hear that enough
And yeah, we're like you
Love the videos bud. Glad you're doing everything you can. I'm in the same situation it's hard to do it all in just two days a week. I work 5-12's and don't have time during the week to do anything at all prepper related.
Fun fact....Not everybody, but some have crazy skill sets too.......... See ya on the front...
Another great video Magic. Good luck on your plum trees. I've had mixed results with them. If they take off and do good, you'll have a lot of animals around you if the need arises. Deer are about the biggest thing I have in my area and it's standing room only when they're producing.
Good video, thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Former US Paratrooper/medic in 90s, been paramedic for 25 years.
At least youre training. Doesn't matter if you were mil/LE.
I was a Swat medic years back, most cops suck shooting and frankly, will tread on our 2A when they are ordered to.
In the words of the PROHO, act accordingly.
More medical the better 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I throw support to Midway USA, most recently end of March for a couple of mags, a sling and swivels. Also used your discount code at Warbird for a pair of shades. Thanks, and all's good.
Can you do a video on best drills for brand new shooters? Love the videos!!
I’m finally losing interest in prepping. I use to do it so much I didn’t have a life. Feels so much better being normal again
But now you have a lot of what you could need, awesome
Great video as usual MP!
You mentioned getting back to your “solar”… if you ever need some advice on system design etc let me know. I’ve been designing and installing off grid systems for 14 years or so. Been living off grid for years as well. Take care brother.
Blessings,
I will keep that in mind! Thank you.
You are an excellent communicator.
Compared to?
Your more than a prepper. Your a Magic Prepper
Trading and repetitions. Training and repetitions. This goes a long way for me, the Mrs and kids.
Keep up the great work were behind you 💯 ok👍🇺🇸
I know this is RUclips but The stars should be on the left 😬
Just vacuumed some rice/beans for a year or so
Feels good doesn't it?
😎I’m like you magic,, except Im a lone wolf 🐺,, i rent and do not own property.. yet…I can only shoot at the range( In Ma.,, however I go every chance I get. Your doing great!!😎keep the vids coming!!!
I think your doing a great job 👍🇺🇸
And I don’t have any sponsors. I am on my own with my family. I am an armed security officer. I have to pay for my own gear. And have to pay to take recertification
Every year
We need the human waste video!😂
How do you feel about that optics height with the gas mask? Are you able to find the reticle easily? Considering something silly like the Unity Hydra for gas masks and nods
Magic Prepper has probably shot more rounds in a Respirator down range than even these guys when they used to strap a D cell Maglite to an MP5.
The Classic SAS MP5 + Maglite
The really scary part is those that do know some but in thier minds they're John Wick. That was the real catalyst behind my uncomfortable truths videos.
I've been around and got the shirts but I like most of the guys who did that as a profession. Be a student, a perpetual student, always learn. There is something to learn from everyone. I've been following Magic since he vacated commie land and I get ideas all the time from him.
So don't sell yourself short, you've come a long way.

I feel so inadequate
Was that you remote viewing me last night!?
Don't forget to tell us how handsome you are! Haven't we seen you on those youtube shorts? You're that 50-ish guy with the gray hair in a ponytail and you're always wearing the same rough white cable-knit sweater, and getting into some supercar somewhere in the south of France, sometimes with a supermodel-ish gal? You go by Zeuss or something silly like that.
@@notmyname3883 you describe my brother to a "T". Good family genetics...
I, on the other hand, have a savagely handsome (if I may say so) well trimmed beard. Just a carryover from my days as a "horse soldier" in Afghanistan riding with Masood and his boys hunting Osama.
I wear plaid......everyday and every occasion.
MP, I remember the video explaining and your story. Thinking you have a bunch of new subscribers, maybe revisit when you have a rut.
I know I loved the shotgun story. Just saying.
