"The Beginning"
(and glossary of terms)
This Primer is designed to give you only the basic understanding of how to conduct a guerilla operation, It is by no means the final word, by no means can this replace actual combat experience , or techniques and local doctorine formed during combat.
Force Multiplication is anything which will aid the combat ability of a single person or a large force.
Realistic Training is the absolute best way to prepare for war no amount of time spent talking, or watching war movies can prepare one for actualy carrying a rifle, learning how to shoot it properly and how to then move and move away from the enemy.
While you not only have to contend with a more advanced and trained enemy, you will also have to contend with the creatures,insects,germs and the weather and outdoors, If properly trained and disciplined all these become for you an ally in your struggle.
Physical Fitness
Physical Fitness is an absolute must!
How can you fight with a soft body? Your body must be like steel it must be sharpened and honed to a fine point/edge.
Exercises like Running, Pushups, Situps are a great way to harden your body and prepare your mind.
Physical training such as Boxing,Wrestling,are great for endurance and creating a willingness to fight and Team sports such as Soccer (football) Rugby and BasketBall are great ways to foster unit brotherhood and physical fitness, while also allowing some recreation.
1a. the Push up
The Beginning of Rifle marksmanship
(noise and smoke never killed anyone, its the bullet we fire that does.)
Before you are taught how to properly fire a rifle, you must know how to maintain that rifle.
LENGTH 880mm
WEIGHT 4.3kg
CALIBRE 7.62mm Intermediate
OPERATION Gas
FEED 30rd Box Magazine
MUZZLE VELOCITY 717m/s
RATE OF FIRE MAX. 600 ROUNDS PER MINUTE
Range 300 meters or less
Matinence
1. REMOVE THE MAGAZINE
2.There is a small hook for you to press against and for you to grip and pull the magazine out of the reciever
3. PULL THE CHARGING HANDLE TO THE REAR AND ENSURE THAT NO round IS CHAMBERED. If one falls out then you have averted potential mistake.(saved your life or a brothers) remove the cleaning rod
4. your reciever should have a small button located just above where the stock meets the weapon. depress that button
5. As you depress that button, remove by sliding the upper receiver forward. It should come off.
6. Now that you have done that, you should see an operating rod, spring, and bolt.
The operating rod should slide out of a small channell in the lower reciever. !!!!BE CAREFUL, THE SPRING THAT HOLDS THE OPERATING ROD WILL CAUSE THE ROD AND OR SPRING TO "FLY" OUT AND BECOME LOST!!!!
7. Once you have done that, slide the operating rod out.
8. You now have successfully removed the operating rod and bolt spring
9. at the end of the gas tube (towards the business end of the barrell) you should see a small lever. this lever releases the gas tube. On some models, you turn it up and on somelyou turn it down. either way if you move it you will remove the tube
10. You have now field stripped the ak-47. Cleaning the rifle can now be done well and thouroghly.
!!!!now you can clean it well, good job!!!!
11. !!!!!!!RE-ASSEMBLY!!!!!!!!
12. Re-attach the gas tube the same way you removed it.
13. Slide the operating rod with spring in the gas tube. the end of the lower reciever will have a small channell in which you removed it. slide the appropriate end (unless you like putting a square peg in a round hole, it should be the same way you removed it). The rod, spring, bolt will slide and lock in the channell.
!!!!Note: the button you pushed to begin the disassembly process was part of the operating rod!!!
14. Slide the upper reciever on the weapon and lock it in place using that button.
!!!!!!!FUNCTION TEST!!!!!!
Charge the unloaded weapon by,
pulling the handle backwards towards your shoulder, the handle should go back easily, and on a new weapon have a slight stickiness, in a well used weapon it will go back and then foward, Squeeze the trigger once the charging handle is forward
You should hear an audible click and feel the internals of the weapon working.
!!!!!EVERY TIME YOU DISASSEMBLE A WEAPON PERFROM A
FUNCTIONS TEST!!! This test will determine:
a. If you re-assembled it correctly
b. if you have a faulty part that will require a gun smith
How to correctly Fire a weapon
Much of the Mistakes being made by people using the Ak series of weapons are due to a lack of training,
If I hand anyone a weapon without the proper training they will make the same mistakes of spraying automatic fire while hoping to hit something.
The Best method of firing is the prone firing posistion
Prone
Most stable shooting position
Very low siloutte to return fire
Ability to remain in shooting position for extended periods of time
Kneeling Position
Easy to drop to a steady kneeling position from a walk or run
Steady position for long shots
Disrupts your silouette from return fire
Allows for easy breathing and almost 360 field of vision
Ability to twist torso for wide angle of fire
Can stay in shooting position for more time than a stand or hip position
Easily return to a run or walk
Elbow on the knee ensures stability.
Standing Position
Quick to aquire
Widest angle of fire
Can shoot over obsticles, use objects as cover
Can offer largest silouette to return fire (when cover not used)
Quickly return to walk or run
Test yourself!
Given an unloaded ak-47/m rifle disasemble and reassemble the weapon and perform a function test on the weapon without having to consult the primer.
(GO/NO GO)
Demonstrate the various firing firing posistions while verbaly reciting the features inherent to them without having to consult the primer.
(GO/NO GO)
Becoming tacticaly alert and aware
Tactical awareness is best defined as
Knowing your own ability and your own role/part to play in the bigger strategic point of view
Tactical awareness is also knowing your immediate surroundings and becoming comfortable with them
An Example of Tactical awareness would be before an operation checking your equipment to make sure it works.
An Example of Tactical alertness would be if you are alone in the wild hearing people talking, or the sound of metal objects such as keys jingling or the sound of a half empty canteen swishing around.
Tactical awareness would cause you to make yourself hard to be seen (so you may kill them) or if you decide to you can make yourself hard to be followed incase you (decide to run)
Be alert stay alive!
Strategy and Stategic thinking
Strategic thinking is the big picture!!
It is important to remember that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Strategy defined is
The science and art of using all the forces of a nation to execute approved plans as effectively as possible during peace or war.
The science and art of military command as applied to the overall planning and conduct of large-scale combat operations.
A plan of action resulting from strategy or intended to accomplish a specific goal.
. The art or skill of using stratagems in endeavors such as politics and business.
As a Guerilla it is absolutely crucial for you to be able to understand the place of your tactical operations have in the overall strategic picture
an example would be an attack on a convoy or the simple cutting of a phone line has an incredible amount of implications for the enemy, an enemy without supplies,or without communications is a defeated enemy!
Every act of disobedience every act of hostility works towards the rehabilitation of the people and towards the liberation of the land
also
Every act of disobedience and hostility will draw reprisals, every act of insubordination and of laxitude on your part aids the enemy!
Guerilla Tactics/Direct Action plan
Sucessfull Guerilla operations come from many steps
earliest formations of which are
Recalcitrance 1. The disposition boldly to defy or resist authority or an opposing force: contempt.
Defiance 2 Behavior or an act that is intentionally provocative: to challenge and provoke
Disobedience 3 The condition or practice of not obeying, Insubordination and Non Compliance a valid form of resistance
The Last step is
Rebellion Organized opposition intended to change or overthrow existing authority.
Techniques of the Guerilla
1 Armed Propaganda
Armed propaganda includes every act carried out, and the good impression that this armed force causes will result in positive attitudes in the population toward that force; and it does not include forced indoctrination. Armed propaganda improves the behavior of the population toward them, and it is not achieved by force.
This means that a guerilla armed unit in a rural town will not give the impression that arms are their strength over the peasants, but rather that they are the strength of the people against the occupiers . This is achieved through a close identification with the people, as follows: hanging up weapons and working together with them on their crops, in construction, in the harvesting of grains, in fishing, etc.; explanations to young men about basic weapons, e.g. giving them an unloaded weapon and letting them touch it, see it, etc.; describing in a rudimentary manner its operation; describing with simple slogans how weapons will serve the people to win their freedom; demanding the requests by the people for hospitals and education, reducing taxes, etc.
All these acts have as their goal the creation of an identification of the people with the weapons and the guerrillas who carry them, so that the population feels that the weapons are, indirectly, their weapon to protect them and help them in the struggle against a regime of oppression. Implicit terror always accompanies weapons, since the people are internally "aware" that they can be used against them, but as long as explicit coercion is avoided, positive attitudes can be achieved with respect to the presence of armed guerrillas within the population.
2 Armed Propaganda Teams
Armed Propaganda Teams are formed through a careful selection of persuasive and highly motivated guerrillas who move about within the population, encouraging the people to support the guerrillas and put up resistance against the enemy. It combines a high degree of political awareness and the "armed" propaganda ability of the guerrillas toward a planned, programmed, and controlled effort.
The careful selection of the staff, based on their persuasiveness in informal discussions and their ability in combat, is more important than their degree of education or the training program. The tactics of the Armed Propaganda Teams are carried out covertly, and should be parallel to the tactical effort in guerrilla warfare. The knowledge of the psychology of the population is primary for the Armed Propaganda Teams, but much more intelligence data will be obtained from a program in the area of operations. Those with an Understanding of Quran and of Islamic Education are the best link between the Volenteer who fights and the people who are Oppressed
3 Development and Control of the "Front" Organizations
The development and control of "front" (or facade) organizations is carried out through subjective internal control at group meetings of "inside cadres," and the calculations of the time for the fusion of these combined efforts to be applied to the masses .
Established citizens-doctors, lawyers, businessmen, teachers, etc.-will be recruited initially as Muslim Brothers and they allow movement within the area of operations their involvement with the clandestine organization is revealed to them, this supplies the psychological pressure to use them as "inside cadres" in groups to which they already belong or of which they can be members.
Then they will receive instruction in techniques of persuasion over control of target groups to support our revolution, through a gradual and skillful process. A cell control system isolates individuals from one another, and at the appropriate moment, their influence is used for the fusion of groups in a united national front.
4 Control of communication and protests
The control of mass meetings in support of guerrilla warfare is carried out internally through a covert commando element, bodyguards, messengers, shock forces (initiators of incidents), placard carriers (also used for making signals), shouters of slogans, everything under the control of the outside commando element.
When the cadres are placed or recruited in organizations such as labor unions, youth groups or professional associations, they will begin to manipulate the objectives of the groups. The psychological apparatus of our movement through inside cadres prepares a mental attitude which at the crucial moment can be turned into a fury of justified violence.
Through a small group of guerrillas infiltrated within the masses this can be carried out; they will have the mission of agitating by giving the impression that there are many of them and that they have a large popular backing. Using the tactics of a force of 200-300 agitators, a demonstration can be created in which 10,000-20,000 persons take part.
5 Support of Contacts with Their Roots in Reality
The support of local contacts who are familiar with the deep reality is achieved through the exploitation of the social and political weaknesses of the target society, with propagandist-combatant guerrillas, armed propaganda, armed propaganda teams, cover organizations and mass meetings.
The combatant-propagandist guerrilla is the result of a continuous program of indoctrination and motivation. They will have the mission of showing the people how great and fair our movement is in the eyes of all muslims in the world Identifying themselves with our people, they will increase the sympathy towards our movement, which will result in greater support of the population for the freedom commandos, taking away support for the regime in power.
Armed propaganda will extend this identification process of the people with the Mujihadeen converging points against the Occupation
The Armed Propaganda Teams provide a several-stage program of persuasive planning in guerrilla warfare in all areas of the country. Also, these teams are the "eyes and ears" of our movement.
The development and control of the cover organizations in guerrilla warfare will give our movement the ability to create a "whiplash" effect within the population when the order for fusion is given. When the infiltration and internal subjective control ha ve been developed in a manner parallel to other guerrilla activities, a commander will literally be able to shake up the occupations structure and replace it
The mass assemblies and meetings are the culmination of a wide base support among the population, and it comes about in the later phases of the operation. This is the moment in which the overthrow can be achieved and our revolution can become an open one, requiring the close collaboration of the entire population of the country, and of contacts with their roots in reality.
The tactical effort in guerrilla warfare is directed at the weaknesses of the enemy and at destroying their military resistance capacity, and should be parallel to a psychological effort to weaken and destroy their sociopolitical capacity at the same time . In guerrilla warfare, more than in any other type of military effort, the psychological activities should be simultaneous with the military ones, in order to achieve the objectives desired.
Direct Action
Either overt or covert action against an enemy force. Seize, damage, or destroy a target; capture or recover personnel or material in support of strategic/operational objectives or conventional forces.
Short-duration, small-scale offensive actions. May require raids, ambushes, direct assault tactics; placing mines or explosive devices, assasination,sabotage, and reconnissance

24 . The Mobile Guerilla Operations
Mobility and the Ability to Blend in with the Civillian Population are among the amost important abilities of the Guerilla
The Motorcycle Operation
What can be more leathal in the confined quarters of a city than the motorized bicycle
it alone offers the ability to go thru both the narrow street and the rough terrain
Grenades can be easily thrown from the motorcycle
a passenger can be carried who can then fire the rpg
In a shaheed operation one can easily fit heavier explosives and fuel to a bike and the bike with or without the driver it can be crashed into the target
Attack on a Moving car/truck with the Rpg
The Irish republican army has for many years conducted epic attacks on the brittish convoys and their loyalist allies
thru the use of truck and car mounted rpg attacks in normal driving traffic
Basicaly getting within 70-200 meters behind a target while driving quickly aiming and firing the momment the rocket is launched breaking contact
Subsuqent Rockets can also be volley fired from multiple cars and locations and the use of preposistioned explosive devices to create rolling ambushes
after the use of the aforementioned ambush changes can be placed in as the enemy adapts as they start to guard the rear of the convoy start attacking the front or sides change it up weekly or even daily

Enduring a Siege
I didnt delete anything these chapters dont show up when I click and paste , I dunno why But I think its cause of the rich text thingie, no illustrations either without rich text.
But It does talk about a chlorine gas grenade warhead for
the rpg-2/7 series basicaly a thin armored shell sepparated by glass in the middle one chamber filled with ammonia the other with bleach. when this hits something chlorine gas is formed, IF this book was to get into the hands of the Iraqi Resistance , Im sure it would go a long way towards leveling the two sides.
