Czech Combat is a two-day multigun competition inspired by the B-rdy Military Combat Shooting (BMCS) concept. It is designed to test comprehensive shooting skills through realistically themed scenarios combining both rifle and pistol use. Stages are set up with various props, obstacles, and structures to create conditions that closely resemble tactical situations encountered in real life.
The competition welcomes shooters from the Czech Republic and abroad, including members of armed forces, the private security sector, and sport shooters eager to challenge themselves in a dynamic environment. Participants must demonstrate not only speed and accuracy, but also tactical decision-making and effective gear handling under time pressure.
The goal is to verify safe and efficient weapon handling, adaptability to different scenarios, and resilience under physical and mental stress. Stages combine shooting from multiple positions, weapon manipulation, and continuous movement within the shooting area.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Czech Combat is based on the multi-platform weapon principle, requiring each participant to demonstrate skills with both rifle and pistol. Scenarios may include:
- Dynamic shooting from various positions and distances.
- Simulated CQB and FIBUA (fighting in buildings and urban areas) created with obstacles and props.
- Vehicle stages – tasks inspired by shooting from/into vehicles and tactical movement under cover.
- Shooting on the move and obstacle navigation such as windows, barricades, tunnels, or trenches.
- Tactical situations including simulated casualty care following TCCC principles.
- Special weapon systems in selected stages (e.g., UTM, precision rifles, machine guns).
Each stage has a clearly defined goal, time limit, and penalties for mistakes. Scoring values both speed and tactically correct, safe execution.
GEAR & EQUIPMENT
The competition is divided into two main divisions:
- Full Gear Division – participants compete with complete tactical equipment as listed in the Competitor’s Equipment List. This typically includes a tactical vest or plate carrier, ballistic helmet, full-finger gloves, long-sleeve uniform, boots with ankle support, and the required number of magazines.
- Light Hobby Division – designed for shooters without full tactical gear. Long trousers, a shooting belt, eye and ear protection, magazine carriers, and other items specified in the CEL are mandatory.
For both divisions, the following are required: a semi-automatic rifle (Category B) with sling, a service pistol (Category B) in a rigid holster, eye and ear protection, and a chamber safety flag.
The complete list of mandatory gear can be found in the Competitor’s Equipment List.
RULES
Czech Combat follows the BMCS Rulebook, which defines safety requirements, range procedures, scoring methods, and allowed techniques. All participants must know and comply with these rules. The competition operates under a cold range policy – firearms remain unloaded outside of stages, and handling is only permitted in designated areas and on the command of an RO.
LAWS & CONDITIONS
Participation requires a valid firearms license and legal possession of firearms and ammunition according to applicable laws. Competitors must follow all legal regulations of the Czech Republic and the instructions of range officers. International participants must meet the requirements for importing firearms and ammunition into the country.
FOR PARTNERS
Czech Combat offers a range of partnership and sponsorship opportunities. Partners may include firearm and ammunition manufacturers, gear suppliers, outdoor equipment companies, and other brands related to the tactical and shooting industry.

PROFILE OF A SUCCESSFUL PARTICIPANT
A successful Czech Combat competitor demonstrates safe and effective handling of both rifle and pistol in dynamic, scenario-based stages. They are capable of engaging targets while on the move, from various shooting positions and simulated cover, and under physical or time pressure. They can tactically plan stage execution to achieve the optimal balance between speed, accuracy, and safety. They are skilled in weapon transitions, can resolve common malfunctions under stress, and move safely between shooting positions. They understand the principles of operating within stage boundaries, follow range officer commands, and act in full compliance with competition rules. The participant is prepared to further develop their abilities in dynamic and tactical shooting disciplines through systematic training and performance measurement aimed at long-term improvement.
REFERENCES FROM COMPETITORS
Hi Sefa, I thought I already knew a little bit about shooting. I had taken several courses at competing companies and participated in a few LOS and IPSC competitions. But after the first lesson, it was obvious that I was wrong. I didn’t expect so much new information, and the instructors’ approach was actually very interactive and individualized the entire time. With each lesson, the amount of new information increased. Everything follows logically, and the B-rdy methodology is clearly based on practical experience. I like that the system is universal. The class included people from the armed forces, IPSC shooters, and hobbies, and everything is trained. I definitely recommend the course and plan to go through it again. –Honza N.
It’s clear that you’ve worked out the course down to the smallest detail. Great instructors who can immediately demonstrate everything they teach in practice. I liked the teaching system, where we had regular three-hour lessons and there was time to practice everything. Each new lesson began with a review of the previous one, so even if I couldn’t make it one time, it wasn’t a problem to catch up on the covered material. I also appreciate the study materials that were sent to my email after class. This made my preparation a lot easier. You guys are great, and I’ll definitely be coming back for the rifle course. –Pavel Č.
Your course should be mandatory for all gun license holders. The instructors’ great approach and well-developed system are something I haven’t seen anywhere else in the Czech Republic. Written debriefings for each lesson, recommendations on what and how to train – simply fantastic. The best part was the model situations with FX ammunition, where you can try everything out under a little stress. That’s when it became clear why you teach things the way you do. I would recommend opening more classes at once so that if a certain date doesn’t work, you can go to a parallel class to make up for the lesson. Thanks, and see you at the rifle course. –Jakub P.
Thanks again for the great training and for letting me join even though I hadn’t taken the previous classes.
I’ve reevaluated my schedule for the work week, and I’ll make sure I can attend. I hope I’ll have the opportunity to train with you again. –Petr J.
Thank you very much, it was a bit challenging but great, we found out that we actually know almost nothing😅, I was still absorbing it over the weekend, yesterday we went through the movements, handling and adjusted the grips. –Pavel M.
In my opinion, this is a mandatory course for anyone who wants to use a weapon for self-defense. If you want to collect certificates, look elsewhere. If you want to learn how to shoot, don’t hesitate to sign up. You won’t regret it.. –Michal P.
