We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

While I don't expect or hope to ever need it, as an American, I would like to be prepared to resist as much as necessary if needed. It's looking like it might be needed at some point here.

I'm looking to get a rifle or two for that specific purpose just in case. Can anyone recommend specific brands/models and/or features I should be looking for? I'm disabled in a way that limits my ability to hold anything heavy, so lighter weight is good. I have a revolver, but that's probably not the best for standing up against a repressive regime.

I plan to train with whatever I get, of course. Thanks in advance.

Edit: There way too much information here for me to reply to it all individually, but I would like to say thank you to everyone for your very helpful responses.

I can imagine, especially depending on what part of the country you're in. There is mostly pretty good advice in this thread. Beyond what's already been said, all I can say is keep your eyes open, trust the "vibes" of a situation and be safe.
