Sweet! Sounds like a blast. I made it to a couple of PR matches over the summer...what are the details about the December match?
I know the night IPSC Match here at ARPC involves a stage of strobe lights, a stage of flashlights, and another stage or two. How will the stages work for the PR? |

I won a knife last year too with a $5 LED duct taped to my 6721
This year I'll have a M500A (not sure what the bulb is) with a Eotech on a 6920. It will be the first time I've not shot irons. I also have a TactikkaPlus headlamp so I'm not tripping all over the place  ETA: There's a new moon on the 9th and the match is on the 8th. It should be very dark this time, especially if it's clear out (no ambient light bouncing off the clouds from Sherwood/Tualatin) |

I am unfamiliar with this night shoot you all speak of. Curious as to what kind of gear would be needed? I have a Pentagon X2 on my AR that I usually remove for PR and a TLR-1 on my G21. Should I strap one of my G2 Cree hybrids on also for a little extra light on the rifle?

SUREFIRE HL1-A-Tn HELMET LIGHT Compact, lightweight, watertight, multiple-output unit that can be attached to military PASGT and TC 2000 Modular Integrated Communications (MICH) helmets, as well as caving, climbing, construction, and search-and-rescue helmets. The Helmet Light uses a single 123A lithium battery, three separate switches, and six light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to produce three different types of light at multiple power levels: - Primary light - three 5mm white-light LEDs with low, medium, and high output levels - Secondary light - two 5mm blue-light LEDs with low, medium, and high output levels - Tertiary IFF light - one 3mm, 880nm infrared LED with continual blinking output White lights are for general-purpose close-work illumination. Blue lights serve the same purpose, but in a low-signature, night-vision-friendly color. Blinking infrared light serves as a personal Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) beacon. Attaches to thick-rimmed helmets (including MICH helmets) via a close-fitting, low-profile mount that clamps to the left-side rim. Some helmets may require drilling two small holes. Helmet Light unit may be removed separately from mount. Weatherproof construction |

I would like to come out and use the NV, but the flashes they used to signal a hit on a stage or two last year don't mix well with the NV stuff...
I haven't been able to make the last few because of a new work schedule, but am going to try and make this one... |

A light. DUH! AKA a helmet mounted friendly force blinder and team mate anger generating device. I hate that aspect of night match... always someone trying to "help" by shining their light on everyone's face. |

Or how about the guy who had the stuck bolt and was ramming his riffle butt against the ground while engaging the CH in an attempt to clear it. The RO yelled at him and he said he couldn't clear it any other way. The RO said, "Well, at least turn off your light then"

Well, it looks like I just bought a drop in Samson rail. So now I need a light to put on it, then I'll hopefully be able to join in on the nightly fun come December.
Should I go with a Pentagon X3 or L3? It will be in a Larue mount of course. |

Usually "Blueswarrior" or "Cudaterry" will post up the match info weeks before the match. its' a month out so you won't see it yet. I posted this up since the next FunShow is next month and want some ideas. From previous night matches it's anywhere from close range to 100+ yrds. Pistols were not used last time so it may or may not be used. They will surprise you on that same goes for the knife... always bring a knife.. even if you don't get to use it. Cuz when they do a "Knife Check".. you don't want to be the one saying, "Will my Leatherman Multitool Count?" |

Is there like a PR check list around somewhere that helps to let you know what gear to bring?
Thanks |

Try the sticky up at the top with the PR FAQ: www.ar15.com/content/page.html?id=381 (that actually needs to be updated, there is now a class before the match. There isn't really a check list, it is differnet every time. Sometimes there is a pistol stage, sometimes there isn't. Dress for the weather, etc. I'd say bring a rifle and some ammo at a minimum.  |
