This video from IDARM 2018 showcases Stage 2 of the Arizona Independence Day Rifle Match, a long-standing shooting competition. The stage features engaging targets from multiple positions on a roof and then crawling underneath to shift positions. Notably, the participants are using unconventional rifles: a left-handed G3 and a heavily modified Vz2008 (Vz58), explored as an 'what if' scenario.

This video details Stage 5 of the 2016 Red October AK Match, focusing on a challenging 'Total Darkness' scenario. The stage involved engaging nine steel targets from three positions, with a water can to carry between them. The primary difficulty stemmed from extremely low light conditions, exacerbated by distracting illumination sources like red LED pucks, VTAC barricade lights, bonfires, and flashing police lights, which did not significantly aid target acquisition. Competitors, particularly those using iron sights on AK platforms with short sight radii, faced significant challenges in acquiring a sight picture. The discussion highlights the tactical decision-making regarding weapon lights in low-light scenarios and the impact of lighting on aiming techniques, noting the tendency to shoot high in low light versus low in bright light.
