This video details a "Near-Complete Failure" experienced by the presenter using a clone of a 1980s/early 1990s Delta Force CAR-15 carbine setup during the Midnight Brutality 2023 all-nighttime competition. The setup, featuring an Aimpoint 5000, AN/PAQ-4A IR laser, and Surefire 6P with IR filter, proved inadequate for engaging small targets at longer ranges in minimal ambient light. The primary issues were insufficient flashlight illumination and an IR laser dot larger than the targets. The presenter, who completed only four of six stages, highlights the educational but frustrating experience, contrasting it with potential worse outcomes with other historical gear. Filming utilized a Sionyx OPSIN and PVS-14s.
This video showcases a participant's run in the "Midnight Brutality" all-nighttime shooting match. The competitor, using a Q The Fix bolt-action rifle chambered in 8.6mm Blackout with a Pork Chop suppressor and Gorilla Ammo, navigated the challenging course with an AGM Rattler TS35-640 thermal scope for shooting and dual-tube PVS-14 NVGs for navigation. Despite facing challenges with ambient temperature targets and the limitations of a bolt-action rifle in a match designed for semi-autos, the participant performed well, highlighting the effectiveness of the thermal optic in extreme darkness. The video emphasizes the educational and enjoyable aspects of testing gear and skills in a low-light, competitive environment.
This video showcases Kit Badger's experience at the first-ever "Midnight Brutality Match" in early 2023. The competition is described as a fun 2-gun match with themed divisions encouraging costumes. Unlike previous Brutality Matches, this one took place entirely at night, featuring divisions based on equipment such as white light and night vision. Kit Badger competed in the "Light Fighter Division" (white light) and the "Infantry Division" (NODs/IR Light/Laser), highlighting it as a highly enjoyable event.
