Re: Adding new ops members/Platforms

I would not use TikTok.

Though have always thought about making an Instagram. Does anyone have any thoughts on Instagram? I'll probably post vague images of my adventures, nothing overtly criminal.

Re: Chat-Room Thread

I still check it daily. even though I haven't been on a night op in a while now. But yeah, it really feels desolate here. I wish I had more to share here but have been so busy with other stuff. There is a night ops discord channel, but even that's been silent recently.

Re: New AO

My advise is to slowly explore and observe the areas you want to operate in. Last thing you want to be caught off guard by in unfamiliar territory are gangs. I think graffiti is a good indicator, just go sus it out in the day to see if gangs have "claimed" certain areas you want to operate in. Also ...

Re: Energy

When I was younger I'd usually take no-doze pills if we had a particular op prepared. I think coffee and energy drinks would have some a beneficial effect. Just don't over do it or you may be jittery. What I now prefer to do before an op is meditate. Simply sitting for 10 minutes clearing your mind ...

Backpack Noise

I am in need of some advise on how best to eliminate (or reduce) the ratting sound from the zippers on my backpack. When I even walk theses things clang around. I thought of removing the metal and replacing with that small stretchy string stuff. I am hesitant to fuck with it in case I damage the zip...

Greetings.

There is so much information on here to learn. And if you don't find what you are looking for just ask. I'm fairly new here myself. Seems like there are very few active members, but they friendly and top quality.

Re: NO guide

I've made a txt file over the last several years before becoming aware of this Night Ops site. I called it Tactical Night Operations. I might look at cleaning it up and adding it on here sometime. I do wonder if somethings should be kept secret thought. I mean, if publicly accessible, then counter a...

Re: Footwear

I personally use these boots (in the attachment), they are comfortable and silent. Otherwise I also use a lightweight combat boot or pair of Nike's like an Eshay.

Google "MGS Sneaking Boot", I've always wanted a pair of those.

Overheard Conversations

I am certain we have all come overheard conversations when oping or training. Any interesting stories? The other night I couldn't help but stop and listen to a group hanging out on their back porch as I was passing on a back road. One girl was going on about her inappropriate teach back at school wh...

Re: What got you into night ops, anyway?

Around the age of 12 my mates and I would hang out in town late at night and get up to mischief and that often involved having to be sneaky. My older brother at the time was getting into graffiti and of course me being a little brother would try and copy him and go out tagging. But night ops really ...

Re: For the bare beginners: escaping from your family.

Fortunately for me my bedroom was on ground floor and facing the front window where I lived as a teen. So it was easy to climb out. I'd sometimes have a mate stay over so we could both just jump out my window and have the night to ourselves. Though after the age of 15 my father didn't really give a ...

NZ Night Oper

Hello all,

I've been doing all kinds of night ops since I was 13 in Australia. I have left Australia and been out of action for a few years, but have been getting back into it.
My area of operations is in New Zealand.
