What is this soldier carrying?

[Gonzo]

Were you traumatized by a bad prior experience aboard ship maybe???

Thanks, I've been repressing these memories for about 5 years now.

I think it's the new 4x trijicon ACOG with mini red dot on top. ACOG (Advanced Combat Optical Gunsite) utilizes the Bending Aiming Concept - ability to shoot using both eyes open with a magnified optic. The optic has a fiber optic to help it out and no batteries are required. Guns & Gear replayed that episode again today so my DVR picked it up again.

Nope. That's an EOTech. No doubt at all.

Will you provide us with the website you copy and pasted that from?

A quick search and it appears he didn't cut and paste that.

What are you talking about? Do you even know?

 

[strangenh]

Easy, there, fella. PennyPincher's just following up on her previous post:

Wish I hadn't erased that episode, I could of told you who makes the sight system and given you all the technical jargon too.

 

[CHAM12]

Its des name is MK18 MOD 0 its the m4 commando to the police world or civilian pop

 

[P2A]

That was established pages ago.

 

[Gonzo]

So is that an eotech or a fiber optic thingy?

 

[ochmude]

It's obviously a C More sight

 

[M1911]

Eotech. One of the AA battery models. Look at the pictures that I posted: http://northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=1123206&postcount=34

It is one of these: http://www.eotech-inc.com/products.php?id=1

 

[ochmude]

I think Tasco makes it.

EDIT: Sorry, coffee machine is broken at work. I'll try to make that my last smart$$ post.

Yeah, sorry, Ochmude and I were on a roll there with the sarcasm.

 

[P2A]

Yeah, sorry, Ochmude and I were on a roll there with the sarcasm.

Its obviously an Aimpoint with an intrigal laser.

 

[Admin]

Its obviously an Aimpoint with an intrigal laser.

 

[Gonzo]

I need to get one of those. My budget only allows for an ill-tempered sea-bass right now.

 

[M1911]

Doh! Humor recognition failure on my part...

It's all good . I just can't get past the gloves, though. We've established that he's probably in the Navy, and I'd venture to say he's possibly an MA. Now I know from past experience that MA's get the honor of being pecker checkers for urinalysis, which involves the wearing of nitrile gloves. Soooo, what the heck was this guy doing prior to that IED going off, that's all I wanna know.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

He has an EOD warfare insignia above his US NAVY tape. I'd say he was not checking peckers.

Probably had to deal with some wounded people.

Or pecker checking.

 

[Mike S]

nah, swine flu vacc's. Wait, disregard that, it was pre-swine.

Avian Flu? Remember that? The world was going to end and we were all going to die, damn chickens. That's it, I'm going to KFC for lunch.

 

[TXDMERC]

its a 11.5" shorty m4 carbine with dual flashlights gives wider field of view in the dark.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

Already established its a MK18, 10.5 inch. Where do you see 2 lights?

 

[CHAM12]

sorry

That was established pages ago.

Missed that one we have them in the coast guard for the DSF units


Colt 10.5 commando, knight Armament RIS and grip, we can mod them how ever we want just cant change the internals or rails, we can change the lights, sights, add LAZER BEAMS pec2, but we try to keep as light as possible

 

[CHAM12]

There fun

 

[Gonzo]

I just figured it out. It's a MK 18 Mod 0 with an eotech.

 

[ochmude]

Well of course he wasn't. Geez, if a guy can't make sarcastic remarks about a sailor wearing exam gloves without people taking you seriously, what's there left to live for [sad2]?

Thanks Gonzo, you restored my faith in this thread...and in humanity.
