I&#8217;ve rigged it up like the BOPE (Brazilian military police special teams) typically use them, with the flash hider and bipod removed to save weight. It&#8217;s still a heck of a gun, weighing in at about 20 pounds (9kg). I&#8217;ve paired it up with a Beretta 92FS for the match &#8211; that should be a Taurus PT92 for maximum realism, but the Beretta is what I&#8217;ve got. For gear, I found some black DPM fatigues and a pretty typical tactical Blackhawk!-type vest. It sure does have a lot of straps and pouches, but no way to carry a spare Madsen magazine&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Spoiler; I took third-to-last place, behind one poor sob who got a ton of penalties somehow and one guy who didn&#8217;t complete all four stages. But it was a heck of a lot of fun! And it really reinforced just how badass the BOPE cops who carry these beasts onto real operations are.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ForgottenWeapons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ForgottenWeapons<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.floatplane.com\/channel\/ForgottenWeapons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.floatplane.com\/channel\/ForgottenWeapons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Contact:<br \/>Forgotten Weapons<br \/>6281 N.
