Desert 2-Gun: 108 Fahrenheit With a WWSD Commando

The Lynx Brutality 2022 competition in Slovenia tested shooters' physical and mental fortitude across eight demanding stages. Competitors faced challenges like fast-roping, carrying heavy loads, and shooting from unconventional positions under extreme physical stress. Success required not only marksmanship but also significant endurance, strength, and strategic heart rate management.

This Q&A session for Desert Brutality 2020 covers a wide range of topics related to competitive shooting, including the use of Pistol Caliber Carbines (PCCs) in various divisions, specific division rules for Retro, Armored+P, and Classic/Manual categories. It delves into gear recommendations, such as holsters and optics, and discusses registration logistics and event planning. The conversation also touches on match design philosophies, training methodologies for limited ranges, and humorous hypothetical scenarios. The overall aim is to clarify rules, address competitor questions, and foster engagement within the shooting community.

This video showcases a unique 2-Gun match featuring a semi-automatic CETME-B rifle and a MAC-50 pistol, with a humorous marshmallow-holding requirement. Ian McCollum highlights the CETME-B's accuracy, reliability, and manageable recoil in .308 caliber. The match demonstrates practical application of these historical firearms in a competitive setting.

This video showcases the "Brownells Action Hero Experience 2-Gun" event, an opportunity for participants to engage in dynamic shooting activities. The description directs viewers to the Big Springs Range website for sign-ups, indicating a focus on practical application and potentially competitive or training-oriented shooting scenarios. While specific firearms and calibers aren't detailed in the provided text, the event name "2-Gun" strongly suggests the use of at least two different firearm types, likely a pistol and a rifle or carbine, common in modern shooting sports and tactical training.

This video reviews the performance of an old-school Ring Sight optic during a 2-gun competition, mounted on a Colt 733 clone. Despite its limitations like slow target acquisition and lack of co-witness capability, the 1x Ring Sight performed surprisingly well, especially on closer targets. The shooter achieved a respectable 8th place overall out of 48 participants, demonstrating that even dated optics can be effective with skilled marksmanship.

This video details the unique 'French Finger Trap' issue with the MAS-36 rifle's bayonet, where two rifles can become unintentionally locked together. A 1951 French arsenal memorandum identified this problem, proposing a simple modification to the bayonet handle. Drilling a small hole allows a tool, like a firing pin, to depress the internal spring, enabling the separation of locked rifles.

The M134 Minigun is a scaled-down 7.62 NATO rotary cannon, requiring 24V DC power and consuming 1.5 kW. Its high rate of fire (3,000+ RPM) is essential for aircraft engagement windows. The complex delinker mechanism is critical for feeding ammunition, and practical hand-held use is impossible due to weight and recoil. Live fire demonstrates rapid ammunition consumption and the need for indirect aiming.

The H&K G11 is a revolutionary prototype assault rifle designed in the late 20th century, notable for its caseless ammunition and unique rotating drum bolt mechanism. Despite advanced features like a 2000 RPM burst fire rate and integrated optics, its development was ultimately halted by geopolitical shifts and cost concerns.

This video demonstrates the assembly and live-fire of the German 1936 pattern light mortar (L.Gr.W.36). It highlights the mortar's leveling mechanism for accuracy and the difficulty in visually tracking its 50mm projectiles after firing.
