Viking Brutality 2026 Day 1: Armored Berserker Challenge

I am in Ockelbo Sweden for this year's Viking Brutality match, presented by Semper Paratus Consulting. This is the second year that Viking Brutality has been run, but my first time attending. In the tradition of Finnish Brutality, Lynx Brutality, and Moons Out, it is 10 stages of challenging physical 2-gun shooting, surrounded by a bunch of awesome people. I also entered the Berserker challenge, which adds a physical evolution after each stage, just to make things a bit harder.

For guns, I have a loaned Glock (with Acro) and unique H&K 630 (see link below). My camo is Swedish M90K desert camo from Afghanistan. My plate carrier rig was provided by Terrang, and my belt rig from Varusteleka. The knife is a Jääkäripuukko and the holster a US M12 universal flap holster I cut to fit an optic.
