Clint introduces the video with Kaya from SAR USA and explains the rules of a blindfolded pistol identification challenge. The table is covered with various handguns in different sizes and colors. Clint emphasizes that all firearms are cleared, with no live ammunition present, and that standard firearm safety rules will still be followed. Kaya will be blindfolded with a T‑shirt and asked to identify each pistol by handling it, feeling controls, weight, and texture. Clint plans to participate as well, turning it into a friendly competition to see how well each of them knows the pistols laid out on the table.
Kaya opens the challenge by introducing himself as being from SAR USA and calls the game “Guess the SAR.” He quickly identifies a SAR 9 compact with an external safety, then another SAR 9. When handed a distinct metal pistol, he recognizes it as a gold 1911 by feeling the engravings and overall profile. Another round brings out a SAR C12X, which he also calls correctly. The early sequence shows him relying on frame size, safeties, and slide features to distinguish between SAR 9 variants and the 1911 pattern pistol without being able to see them.
As the rounds progress, more non-SAR pistols appear. Kaya identifies an HK USP 45 by its feel, then calls out a metal P8, specifying it as a P8S with a short slide and stainless color. He recognizes another SAR 9 from time spent shooting it at the range, then quickly tags a SAR CM9. A large-frame pistol initially feels like a Desert Eagle to him, but he corrects himself and later identifies a Glock Gen 4 17 by the finger grooves. He also calls out a SIG M17 by its longer slide. A B6 compact is correctly named, and the challenge continues to mix polymer and metal frames to test how well he can differentiate platforms by ergonomics and controls.
The challenge adds a twist when Clint offers bonus points for guessing pistol colors while blindfolded. After identifying a B6 compact, Kaya is asked to name the color and confidently guesses purple, which turns out to be correct, surprising everyone. Later, he handles a CZ Shadow, recognizing the all-metal construction and blue grips. Multiple SAR 9 compacts appear, including the SAR 9 Compact and SAR 9 CX. Kaya distinguishes them by external safeties and slide cutouts, though he initially misses the cuts on the Compact X. Color guessing continues, with Clint urging him to “smell” the guns as a joke, while Kaya debates whether certain SAR 9 Compact X pistols are bronze or black based on his memory of what was brought to the range.
A thicker-gripped pistol throws Kaya off briefly. He rules out the K12 because of its metal grips and inlays, then considers whether it might be a Walther. Feeling the large grip circumference and barrel diameter, he finally calls it a K2 45, noting how the .45 ACP chambering explains the fat grip and muzzle. In a bonus round, he is handed what feels like a K12. He detects slide cutouts and initially calls it a K12 Sport X stainless, assuming the standard configuration. Clint reveals that the slide and frame have been swapped between a K12 Sport X and a K12 Sport, creating a hybrid with a flared magwell from the Sport and the cut slide from the X. Kaya admits he should have noticed the magwell and reflects on taking more time to feel all features before deciding.
The final blindfolded firearm before the last surprise is a rifle. Kaya first feels an AR magazine and then a stock, realizing it is not a pistol. He notes an angled forward grip and a distinctive safety, then recognizes a Hyperfire trigger. Feeling the receiver and controls, he identifies it as a Stag rifle, mentioning logos on both sides and a two‑chamber brake. He concludes it is the Stag 3‑Gun rifle, which Clint confirms is actually Kaya’s own rifle, though the optic has been changed. After removing the blindfold, they tally results. Clint notes he effectively went eight for eight on his own runs, while Kaya finishes slightly behind on model calls but earns extra credit for correctly guessing multiple pistol colors during the challenge.
For a final shared challenge, both Clint and Kaya close their eyes while handling one more handgun. The pistol is passed around without being named aloud. When they open their eyes, it is revealed as a Hi‑Point YC9, set up in a tactical configuration with a threaded barrel. Clint comments that it still needs to be shot suppressed and suggests they should run it with a suppressor in a future range session. They discuss doing another video featuring a shooting competition during an upcoming range trip. The video closes with lighthearted remarks about the difficulty of the blindfold test, the humor of the color “sniff test,” and an invitation for viewers to suggest other challenge ideas in the comments.
