Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Awesomely organised by @PolenarTactical and supported by numerous sponsors noted in the video, here's Bloke and Chap's Day 1 of #lynxbrutality2022 in Slovenia.
Bloke was shooting a #garbagetier CIS SAR-80 type 2 in 5.56 / .223 and a Browning Hi-Power in 9x19mm / 9mm Para, and doing everything out of @varusteleka #Särmä tactical jeans. Chappie was dressed as French with a custom @varusteleka #särmätst PC18 plate carrier and shooting a FAMAS (yes, a real one), and a MAB PA-15 in 9x19mm.

You both did amazing!
I was impressed by Chap deciding to go with ARMORED category and Bloke dominated with iron sights - being faster and more precise than many competitors with optics
Thanks for your kind words, and for a great match! :D
"Ian didn't borrow the PA-15"
Even Ian has his limits with French guns 😂😂😂😂😂
Blokes 1st stage pistol calamity was Browning's revenge for removal of the mag safety.
Tbf, FNH followed Bloke's example and deleted the magazine safety from the new run of Hi-powers
@@colbunkmust the new FN’s are a completely different gun - much blockier gun too. It looks like a BHP, but very disappointing.
The more authentic newer BHPs remove the mag safety as well.
@@-John-Doe-
Have you tried the Springfield Armory offering yet, any opinion?
Odd that FN stuck with the mag safety as it was a requirement in the French pistol trials if I'm not mistaken.
Impressive!
"the ammo cans got heavier"..."thigh burn" 🥶 Watching you guys immediately broght up memories on the position i hated the most during conscript service. "assistant machinegunner" or MG2 as we called it. ("Last-Esel" was how i called it for myself) Carrying the MG ammo and spare barrels the whole time while marching, running... My mood sank each time i got appointed this position, knowing beforehand i would feel worn out the whole day.
Good Lord, I got out of breath just watching you. Nice to see a Hi-Power in action, sorry your MAB didn't behave Chap, but you looked very awesome in your gear!
Thanks! Looking good is halfway to winning 😝
Great Video, really Love it when the brutality participants "Analyse" their Shooting/footage Afterwards with anecdotes and the Like.
Thanks. I think it's really nice for people who've not done this kind of shooting to hear what's going on in the participant's head and where the difficulties lie.
Well Done Chap! Totally admire how you stuck with the PA15. As they say "You dance with the one you brung!"
Great vid, it’s making me very excited for Finnish Brutality :)
Thanks! We're excited too for what Jari has in store for us all!!!
@@BlokeontheRange I'm not, i'm just scared
Guys did a great job. As a former US Famas and PA15 owner it was fun to watch.
Glad it's finally here. Bad mags stink. Nice runs and you were both somewhat hard to recognize at first seeing you in other videos. Lots of pistol work on day 2 as well.
Pretty solid for both of you shooting irons on pistol, the rifle portions were great to see, and Bloke continuing to impress with irons there also.
Cool to see Ian just chilling by himself in the background a couple of times. I bet that doesn't happen too often!
Bro he’s just a dude not a rare animal caught on tape.
@@simplymadness8849 I think it means that it’s rare for Ian to enjoy a bit of time to himself rather than be crowded by fanboys
I get a notification of a new video and I watch it. That simple. More BOtR
This. All day.
Haha. Slide lock finishes is my competition forte too 🤔😂
As is not returning to the preplanned ideal shooting position because brainfart reasons.
Good drills and effort guys ☕☕🤙🧐
Wow, this particular take on a Kasarda drill stage seems to be brutal in the extreme, which clearly dashes any fantasy I've had about ever getting in good enough shape to compete in one of these matches...lol.
I find the lateral ones like FB21 more difficult, you have to realign yourself at every shot whereas here you just travel in a straight line towards the target.
this looked like a lot of fun
Good show lads, heaving those weights looks grueling to say the least. Stay in shape and do not put on the pounds and enjoy for many years to come.
Cool. Bloke, those jeans make you look like Chuck Norris.
Mikey and chappie great stuff guys thoroughly enjoyed it 👍
You just make me discover a french gun and a french manufacture : the MAB PA-15 !
Was great to meet you there - had much fun too ;-)
Great stuff! Thanks gentlemen.
looking forward to part 2
@bloke; Seriously good pistol skills with Old Ma Browning (second time around, when your head was in the right place!!)
Who is "The Machine Himself, wearing a flesh suit"?
Much awaited much appreciated excellent as always 👌
That's a question I also want answered.
Ian, Forgotten Weapons Check his channel for videos. That was flash suit, not flesh suit.
@@myrlstone8904my bad, being from Austria I thought of Schwarzenegger in Terminator, not McCullum auditioning for Reservoir Dogs.
😉😎
Polenar Tactical have a pro shooter nicknamed « The Machine ».
Here's The Machine in action: ua-cam.com/video/nOkGGOTQh-0/v-deo.html
Looks like fun!
Great Match guys!
It’s interesting both of you are using M12-ish holsters. Was that design common in Europe or are they US surplus?
Convenient universal holster and in my case easy to switch to left side carry
New US production. Bianchi. Good, basic holsters.
Looks like great fun, ahem...
If this video was in 1080 resolution, it was out of FOCUS!
Great band, I've seen them live several times.
Looks like it was a great “brutality” at a fantastic facility!
Nice!
Y'all nee to put out more content as well!!!
@Not Him We came up with an idea for a vid for @Varusteleka at Finnish Brutality, so hopefully it'll get made then. It involves Ian and an unusual French surplus product they've got in stock :)
Are y'all able to order magazines from the US? A company called Triple K makes mags for your PA15...no idea how good or bad they may be.
If triple k is the company I’m thinking of they are garbage.
No issue ordering mags from anywhere. The main issue is usually shipping. I have since found one more original mag in Germany.
@@thebotrchap ok. Well, upon watching the video, I went online and started digging around and found those Triple K mags. I'm working at the moment, but I'll check shortly on price and shipping cost. I haven't done Patreon for y'all yet, but I figure I might be able to send you a few mags. I had a chance to buy a PA15 here in the Houston area about 30 years ago...for around $600. As a college kid, that was a bit steep, but I've always liked the look of the pistol...kind of a Sites Specter type sidearm.
@@CoreySimmons85 that was my concern. At $50 each, they better be good mags.
@@maverickpaladin4155 Thanks for your offer but I’d rather hold out for original mags.
32:52 Any gun? A Bernadelli Pocket Model in .22 Short, perhaps?
Good luck with the kinetic targets.
I can just imagine Chappie "can I borrow a pistol, I'll take anything" and then someone produces an 18th century muzzle-loaders...
@@88porpoise I would have assumed a revolver.
The Bloke dressed up like that make me think of Hunter S. Thompson....
Bloke and Chap... Lessons learned
Looking cute sharing audio.
Physical stress and mental stress will compromise shooting. Great video.
Looks great fun but why travel abroad without the best gear you have access to?
Cos I want to try out various rifles on the clock on film in a way I can't in Switzerland, and I think people would get bored of my WWSD quite quickly! 😅
@@BlokeontheRange and they get upset if you turn up with a Rifle No. 4 and a Webley Fosberry, then win. Ish.
28:44 through Bloke was about to full-auto mag dump from the hip ‘80s style😵
you had to give a chance to CZ75 instead of HP...😄 but great match anyway.... 👍👍👍
What helmet is Chap wearing?
French M78 or F1
@@thebotrchap So would this be a development of the M51 OTAN or something completely different?
Dope.
May I ask how did you manage to procure that Slovene surplus SAR80?
They’ve been put on a surplus market a few years ago but can’t be found in the local gun shops anymore.
Might have something to do with some law changes in recent years.
Garbage tier or not I would love to have one.
It was at a shop in Glarus, before the glut of them which were much cheaper came out. Ask Matt at M426 dot CH if he can get you one (I'm sure you can work out the e-mail address from that).
@@BlokeontheRange Thanks a bunch for your kind answer. I will give it a look
I really hope to shoot one of these things I need to get my basics back again in England but the problem is handgun... maybe LBP will transfer over some IDK.
also youtube are a pain in the arse, I've been descubscribed.
Bloke, can I ask for some advice for using a fal for this sort of shooting?
Ask away! A FAL is definitely hard mode! I started IPSC rifle with an L1A1 and did my first brutality with a borrowed, shagged out one.
@@BlokeontheRange I'm back in the UK and in the process of sorting a FAC again after some medical stuff (waiting for a below knee amputation to be able to walk again so definitely hard mode.)
my plan is to get the gas blowback airsoft fal as a training tool and shoot as much airsoft practical rifle as I can here in the UK and work on getting my rifle fundamentals back with a .22 and when I'm fitter start looking at travelling for training classes and eventually a completion or two. I've wanted a Brutality type event for years and it's my aim.to try one from a combination of wheelchair and stubbornness just... to prove I can.
at the moment I have a rhodesian chest rig and a shoulder holster for my standard setup though going back to a belt holster for the gun game side of things. I'll hopefully start putting some videos together when I start training again properly. Currently have an airsoft FAL for my weapons manipulation and handling practice and spend most of my time with airsoft pistols shooting Action Air type events.
so any suggestions on gear, things you wish you knew before you started with the fal in a competition setting would be really helpful.
I've had some training with a FAL in the US and tended to use the 56 patt webbing and found that worked fairly well for me though my weak shoulder shooting is AWFUL because I'm left eye dominant and I can't even see the sights from the right eye.
@@BlokeontheRange It's your fault I want to do one with a FAL, I love shooting the L1A1 and that video inspired me to want to go back to the battle rifle over the ar.
What I wish I'd known at the start was that if you want to shoot a FAL, you need to do it cos you love it and not cos you want to be competitive. There's good reasons why AR15's in .223 absolutely dominate the dynamic shooting sports - in rifle, major power factor scoring does not in any way balance .308 vs .223 (or even a just-major heavy bullet 7.62x39 vs .223).
But if you want to do it, and you're left shoulder, learn to manipulate the cocking handle with both hands, and to do mag changes with both hands, so you can do both competently. There's no need to keep the firing hand on the pistol grip in shooting sports, so don't worry about that.
@@BlokeontheRange I'm doing it out of passion, it's the one rifle that just clicked for me, firing it as a Cadet and in Canada at university, I know the AR is objectively better, my own times on stuff has shown me that but I just tend to reach for a fal over one if given the choice.
I have Cerebral Palsy, I'm soon to be a below knee Amputee and I'm a class 35 profile at best in the nearest discipline that I can reference (Track and Field paralympic sports.) My aim is to shoot a Brutality stage inside the par time without geting DQ'd and maybe as an ultimate goal shooting one clean.
The FAL is because I enjoy shooting it, because I love how they look and because of the historic significance.
I won't likely be fit enough o do a shoot in modern gear (armour etc) but a FAL in historic gear I think could be attainable. (plus as a reenactor and airsofter I have a fair bit of it and I'm used to it.)
thanks for the advice, I'm looking at some books and videos about shooting drills and things to practice (and trying to build targets for training as well as my dry fire setup)
would love to see a video discussing how you and Chap and Ian approach things like training for a match.
In all of these competitions no one ever has an AUG. Why not? I mean, Austria is right over there.....
Also, at these distances is there any benefit to using a high height over bore red dot on the FAMAS instead of the built in irons?
There was someone there with an AUG. But AUG's suck in literally every way other than reliability.
The sight radius on a FAMAS is very, very short, with the front sight very close to your eye, with a tiny pinhole of an aperture and a large height over bore already. In other words, they suck. The dot adds a lot of height, but allows you to actually see both the target and what you're aiming with at the same time.
@@BlokeontheRange Interesting. I've had an AUG-A1 for 25+ years and have never had an issue.
Is the FAMAS sight radius similar to an AK?
@@BlokeontheRange you got me curious so I did some looking into about the irons. Apparently there are 2 apertures: a small one for long range precision shooting, and a larger aperture for shorter range or low light).
FAMAS sight radius is indeed shorter, and the front sight is closer to your eye (but at least it's an aperture and not a notch. The small aperture is the typical French pinprick, and the big one is huge and close to your eye.
When ammo sponsors aren’t a thing, like when bloke goes to sra matches in Finland, how does it work? Is there any difference between commercial and reloaded ammo? Should you run out, is it possible to buy ammo abroad with a European firearms licence in a EU country?
I take my 5kg ammo limit on the plane, and that's normally enough. It depends on the country if the EFP is good for buying ammo or not.
@@BlokeontheRange thanks!
Wow
what was your reaction to Ian McCollum wearing a three-piece suit
We were in on the joke
@@thebotrchap it was utterly hilarious
Love the match videos, but your work doesn't need the swearing.
It's not directed at children and it's their children. Those that swear usually tell the truth more often as well.
Brutality can get very "emotional". For once I decided not to bleep the swearing to keep it real, innit ;)
@@BlokeontheRange doesn't YT frown upon the F word though??? As many if us know, shooting videos get lousey support from the YT algorithm. No need to make it easy for them.
Nice
Ar-18?
SAR-80
That’s why the French lost the war, they knelt instead of going prone. Well done otherwise.
👊😜👍🏴☠
