Just a crazy idea from some colabros. It worked out surprisingly well.

SlipSpace with his no IR, no red dot was the most impressive. I could get the technique to work a little bit, but he was downright good at it.

Go out and meet your frens from the internet. Thanks to our host, TGE, for providing a place and feeding us!

I always thought it be fun to cut open some chem lights and cover the clays.

Yeah I got it in a pile of broken and obsolete shotguns. It’s  from the 70’s I think. It was in really bad shape when I got it.

Well you guys manage to figure out a way to make the gun the cheapest part of shooting clays.

Looks fun.


We had a private MG shoot for a couple of years where we would shoot 40mm parachute flares out of the air with tracers from machine guns and that was damn fun too but the range requirements are tough to meet.

What are all the different lasers you used and did they hold zero?

A buddy and I went out and gave that a go a few years ago. It was surprisingly doable and a freaking awesome time.

Oh.

I've never thought to go skeet shooting with nods. That looks fun.

Might have to try it out.

We had a MAWL and a D2 for laser. They both seemed fine, but precision didn't seem to matter much. We moved the D2 to a couple different shotguns and it would still hit without zeroing it.

The KM2 and Aimpoint mount were two equipment failures we saw.

It looks like a ton of fun, but from the video posted, it was not skeet shooting.  Skeet is a particular sport involving clays thrown from towers.

Great video! Had a good time and can confirm that hip fire with the illuminator is fun!

Completely agree. Shenanigans in non-visible spectrums are always lame.

I'll have to see if we can make this happen. I'll bring my dumb 12 guns.

Weird, I didn't get a notification for the @

This was tons of fun, and yeah Slipspace takes the prize for point shooting clays at night lol. I also laugh every time I look at one of these $400 shotguns with $4000 worth of lights, lasers and optics, plus way more than that in nvgs. lol the helmets alone are more expensive than the guns

We'll do it again for sure. I'd like to do spring for slightly cooler weather.
