Moons Out 2025 is our annual night rifle match, presented this year by Q. Shooters must use active or passive IR (no white light), and we have ten stages over two nights. It is not just a rifle match held at night, but rather a match designed from the ground up to test nighttime skills. This year was a resounding success, with some really outstanding courses of fire, a fantastic prize table for participants, and an unparalleled staff of range and safety officers who made it run like clockwork.

So awesome! The run-alongside and shooting from back of a moving humvee were so cool. That D60 looked too fun!

2025-03-21 19:10:55 +0000 UTCthat match the options are white light nightvision or thermals correct? that last trnch mortar round stage made me think... how about going pre NV oldtimers and do flaregun illumination? just for a bit trickier spicy new old taste.

2025-03-21 19:02:52 +0000 UTCwith NV gear required I could imagine a trip to europe transport guns could even by far be the cheaper match than that! after a flashlight by budget would be gone. 😂 hard to beat john wayne but for me... close up shoothouse!

2025-03-21 18:51:59 +0000 UTCThe fun switch was definitely part of it! But I found myself needing something more interesting that just an AR on short notice, and it had to be something with rails that could fit a laser module. My own collection is mostly older, and I really don't have very many guns that meet those requirements.
