So for the MP5, you would need one of those weird adapter things that has a claw on the bottom and picatinny ladder on top? I have no idea how you would attach a light or a telescope to a Colt SMG. So, a SMG/carbine style rifle with picatinny ladder is the recommended weapon for this type of match?

A carbine or PCC would be just fine, but you would want one with good options for attaching a light/laser/optic. Anything predating the ubiquitous use of picatinny rail would be a difficult choice to set up.

Worse, I expect.

So, Hi Point wasn't a good fit, but I like the idea of a SMG/carbine type rifle, especially with a sound suppressor on it. Would a good SMG/carbine type rifle (like the MP5 or the Colt SMG (and very excited, Palmetto State is coming out with a clone of the DoE nuke-transport version of the Colt SMG)) with a sound suppressor be a viable option? They are certainly less noisy and less muzzle-flash than a typical .223 CAR15 or the like, and they are small and compact for running around in the woods. Would an infrared telescope (modern-day equivalent of the Starlight scope, or similar) work better than the thermal telescope? When you said the targets were unheated, I wondered how a thermal telescope would help at all. Thanks for this interesting review of a match with two rifles I doubt any of us would have thought of

Hi point: better or worse than Othais’s Sub 2000?

Thanks for the video. Interesting breakdown on the uses of thermal. I believe your instincts are correct that in "real world scenarios" the thermal would be more useful than it was in shooting cold steel silhouettes . How often would one be looking for a cold steel ?door? in a sneaky mission I do not know but in that instance I would think the availability of other options after assuring no thermal signatures were around would be inherent in the mission. Peaceful Skies. p.s. All of the green arrows at the end of the included links (Get a direct link) lead to a savefrom.net page saying they ceased to provide this service on April 16 2020. Subject: Discontinuation of Service in the United States April 16, 2020 Just thought I would let you know.

Great breakdown.

surprising you haven't borrowed othais keltec thing. would love the nightstuff hardware of course but legally and just as bad financially... NO way. and then owning and using gear is another topic.
