talk about low-threat posture. Those guy isn't even wearing a helmet!Originally posted by Silenthunter:
Maybe the threat in that zone is considered low so there's no need for a suit? Dunno.
Btw I think the guy's wearing the new webbing cos looks different from the one I had in NS......not camoed..........Or maybe he customize himself a webbing for this trip....
Yo Shotgun, Is that the webbing they issued to you in BMT?
Oh yeah. Actually no point having camo webbing when you are wearing a bright blue arm-band.
Maybe the camo webbing is to distinguish the SAF soldiers from other militia groups who are probably using more primitive webbing and equipment.

Does the first guy have a rifle sling?

There is a rifle sling that can be seen near to the "top end" of the SAR21 butt,Originally posted by spencer99:Does the first guy have a rifle sling?
It is the "longer barreled" weapon carried by the second guy walking behind that is more intriguing.
From the PIONEER Magazine, it did not look like an AR-15, and it certainly does not look like the SAR-21 that the first guy is having.
It looks like an ULTIMAX, but without the drum magazine.
Looking at it again, it looks as if there is some kind of a bipod at the barrel end.
The most worrying part is that these guys are out on Combat Patrol without any body armour.
Even if the area may be a "Safe Area", one can never take things for granted that an ambush may not be set up by one of the many antagonist, who can trek long distance from across Indonesian West Timor into this area.
Those ST made weapons will be tempting prizes to be taken from an ambush. -

Hmm...I thought that there is a SAR21 with M203 model that's already released? So what gives? Funny that you dun see a grenadier vest on that guy too...I guess they must be carrying about 8 mags a person...full ammo load.Originally posted by Silenthunter:The 2nd guy's carrying a M203 married to M16.
Gotta slap some body armour on those guys though...too dangerous to risk it...there are 'spoilers' in the peace process...
