The Full NRA Freestyle "NOIR" Athletic Shooting Competition
About this video
Colion competes against fellow shooter Darren (Lort) in a multi-stage shooting competition filmed for what appears to be a reality TV format. Colion narrates and provides commentary throughout thirteen challenging stages involving handguns, rifles, and shotguns at various distances, with timed runs between firing positions. The competition remains close until Darren suffers a hamstring injury mid-course, though he continues competing despite the setback.
Key takeaways
- Colion demonstrates various tactical shooting techniques across multiple firearm platforms, emphasizing speed, accuracy, and safe weapon handling throughout dynamic courses of fire
- Colion explains his preference for running with rifle muzzle down versus muzzle up, attributing it to personal instinct rather than formal training, and discusses the ongoing debate about proper carry methods
- Colion highlights the mental challenge of competition shooting under time pressure, noting how stress and the shot timer can cause shooters to forget stage layouts or rush their shots despite normally being very accurate
