I would think that you would do what any rebellious group would do when
they want something they didn't have..

take their assault rifles tat are plentiful and cheep	and go steal
one.

which  could be very involved..
 i.e.  assault a ground base steal a shuttle / shuttle up to a ship that
you decide you want / and hop on board.

"This ship has been declared the property of the Republic of Madison,
Wisconsin throw down your arms or be destroyed..."

that least that's how it works in the movies...

my $0.02 worth... though i hear it's not worth so much any more  =oP
