Ecco ora Petro non mi potrai dire nulla se mi compro la woodland e dico che sono un marsoc :D
Comunque belle belle le foto, molto interessanti anche per via della collaborazione con i nostri connazaionali.
allora,per rispondere a Petro: è il mk18 ris II da 12" della Daniel Defense,issued con le carabine sopmod block II.
Io ho comprato,ormai è un anno,la versione civile in nero,è l'ho montata sul mio G&P. (Ho copiato il G&P modello Defender/enforcer,però con ris vero!! :cool: ).
Ti posto qualche foto presa in velocità qui e la googlando "mk18 ris II sopmod etc" :
Allegato 50084Allegato 50085Allegato 50086Allegato 50087Allegato 50088Allegato 50089Allegato 50090Allegato 50093
Conta che è in dotazione a tutto il sopmod (se non erro) quindi alcune foto sono di Seals piuttosto che Green Berets etc..
Alcune come vedi sono prese dall'ambito civile,comunque ritraggono lo stesso rail system.
Come già saprai il mk18 ris II esiste in diverse misure per soddisfare la lunghezza della canna dell'arma.
Queste ultime due sono di una manifestazione dove i Seal mostravano al pubblico i loro "gioiellini":
Allegato 50091Allegato 50092
il ris da 9" lo conoscevo, è da un po' che si vede nelle foto montato sui nuovi mk18
quello da 12" mi mancava... davvero niente male
Grazie!
che bello rivedere la buona vecchia woodland
La Daniel Defense costrui il suo "m4" con delta di mira classico,nella solita posizione e ris "avvolgente" la tacca:
Allegato 50095
Poi però,su richista Sopmod,eliminò il classico delta di mira con recupero gas dell' m4a1 e costruì una rail no-stop per venire incontro alle esigenze di totale modularità richieste dalla Crane.
Obiettivamente esteticamente migliore e funzionale,con gli ormai comunissimi flip-up.
Allegato 50096Allegato 50097
Questi ultimi sono della serie SR della Knights,poi ovviamente credo sia a discrezione dell'operatore scegliersi i più graditi.

It's cheap, it's good...buy it before the world ends;)
Solo Blaze,non ti ci vedo troppo con un m16a2 imbracciato:p
Io per altro sto costruendo qualcosa di molto simile, solo che in chiave 82nd ABN.
Ad ogni modo, grazie alla necessità di mischiarsi con i soldati dell'ANA, la woodland sta rivivendo una seconda giovinezza, il che mi fa davvero un gran piacere,essendo la mia mimetica preferita (specie in versione RAID).

E' interessante vedere pure come negli ultimi tempi dopo le lamentele sul 5.56 che non permetteva ingaggi decenti sui 500 metri (distanza media degli ingaggi con i talebani), abbiano affiancato ormai del tutto le armi leggere in 5.56 con le M240B che sono ormai parte integrante della squadra di fanteria e l'utilizzo sempre più massiccio di armi a lungo raggio come fucili di precisione e M2 per la difesa di punti sensibili

Marines Establish New Contacts in Unchartered Territory West of Helmand RiverQuote:
US Marines with 1/3 Charlie Company take cover as they battle insurgents in the North East of Marjah, 2010
GARMSIR DISTRICT, Afghanistan— Marines from Lima Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, inserted along the unchartered western portion of the Helmand River Valley to conduct patrols and key leader engagements as part of Operation Ozark Mountain, June 14.
Prevented from traveling by foot due to the river’s depth, the Marines used air support to cross west over the Helmand River
The Marines were unable to physically cross because the water in the Helmand River was too high.
“I decided to try and get helicopter support in order to get us over there and figure out what’s going on over there with the people, engage the atmosphere, and try to interdict any of the Taliban ‘rat lines' going north to south,” said 1st Lt. Marcos Ruvalcava, a platoon commander with Lima Co., 3/1.
After the helicopters dropped the Marines across the river and departed, the Marines took off, heading down the river toward the villages. As the sun rose, the Marines headed into the first village, seeking out the village elders.
“I wish we could have had more time. We didn’t anticipate the key leader engagements taking that long, and we ran into more village elders than expected,” said Ruvalcava, 33, from Fillmore, Calif.
Village elders should know when and where the local shuras are so they can go and seek help, knowledge or if it is just to let the Marines know of any Taliban activity in their area, said Lance Cpl. Steven Morones, 19, a rifleman with Lima Co., 3/1, from Earlville, Ill.
“It’s definitely a good thing for the elders to know about the shuras, but due to the Helmand River in between us and them, it would probably be more of a hassle for them to get over here to the shura,” said Ruvalcava. “Taliban are still active in the south, not too far away from them, and they are still intimidated by them.”
Marines stopped a random motorcycle to find one of the Afghans failed a gunpowder residue test. The Marines detained the Afghan and made their way to the helicopter pickup point.
“We accomplished a bunch of key leader engagements from Lt. Ruvalcava, and to get out there and see the elders and let them know that we are here to help aid their country in bettering itself,” said Staff Sgt. Nathaniel Dreyer, 28, Weapons Platoon sergeant, Kilo Co., 3/1, from Dayton, Texas.
“I think the message was sent out there. We are able to get over to the western side of the Helmand River, and the river doesn’t divide us and them,” said Dreyer.

US Marine Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTAC) practiced their trade on a hill in East Timor during MARINE EXERCISE 10 (MAREX10) this week (24 June 10).
The JTAC practice followed a day of jungle training conducted by the International Stabilisation Force (ISF), US Marines and East Timor Defence Force (F-FDTL).
MAREX 10, also known as EX CROCODILE, comprises a series of joint exercises and projects with the US Marine Corps, F-FDTL and ISF.
The Marines are posted to the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (15MEU).
The exercise was opened on 22 June 10 with a soccer game between the F-FDTL and a US Navy/US Marine team. The game at Dili stadium was watched by East Timorese, ISF, US and UN personnel.
The US Marine - ISF - F-FDTL interaction has also included competing in a section military skills challenge, and introducing East Timorese soldiers to non lethal crowd control techniques. 28 June 2010

Per quanto riguarda la shemag hai ragione... a parte quelle bianche con i ricami colorati indossate per ovvie ragioni durante i meeting coi capi villaggio afghani non se ne sono mai viste molte in tan... probabilmente sono acquisti personali per situazioni in cui vola molta polvere come, appunto, l'afghanistan e le esercitazioni con gli elicotteri

Quel tuo esempio non c'entra nulla, perchè il catering è un azienda a se che vince gli appalti e bla bla bla. Cioè l'azienda di catering è indipendente al 100% rispetto alle persone che serve, gli MSPF no quindi non regge. E poi stiamo parlando di unità militari che ricevono ordini dalla stessa persona, per fare un'altro paragone, stavolta più consono, è come dire che i GIS non sono carabinieri perchè sono un unità a parte che non c'entra nulla con quelli che pattugliano le strade ogni giorno. Non fanno sempre parte dei carabinieri e rispondono al generale dell'arma?
Devi capire che un unità meu è un piccolo esercito e come tale ha tante unità al suo interno che sono a se stanti perchè possono avere compiti diversissimi tra loro ma sono sulla stessa barca (è proprio il caso di dirlo :D ). Per cui se la vedi a livello "microspopico" cioè alla base della catena militare un BLT non ha nulla a che fare con i MSPF e quindi se la vedi dal tuo punto di vista hai ragione, ma se la vedi al livello dei comandanti i BLT e i MSPF sono nello stesso contenitore e quindi sono entrambi MEU.
quindi non è una discussione senza fine, sono contento io perchè in parte ho ragione e 6 contento tu perchè in parte hai ragione ;)Quote:

A major multi-lateral exercise climaxed in East Timor yesterday (25 June 10) when a multinational force raided Manatuto Prison.
US Marines, Australian and New Zealand soldiers of the International Stabilisation Force (ISF) and the East Timor Defence Force (F-FDTL) concentrated on the prison in the country’s east for two raids that tested interoperability and operational planning.
The prison raids culminated with an assault by F-FDTL, ISF and US Marines, including air support from the USS Peleliu and the Timor Leste Aviation Group (TLAG).
More than 100 F-FDTL soldiers participated in the MARINE EXERCISE 10 (MAREX 10), also called EXERCISE CROCODILE.
The Exercise focused on professional development and arms corps advice to the F-FDTL. It also included community support activities such as engineering, medical and community relations programs.
The participating Marines landed from USS Peleliu and comprised the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (15 MEU). 30th June 2010

BARNWELL, S.C. – Marines prepare to fast-rope onto a building as their hovering Navy MH-60S Seahawk Helicopter begins to inch closer to the rooftop.
The Marines launch their ropes and swiftly slide down onto the roof, which serves as the simulated deck of a ship. As soon as the team is on the deck, they quickly assemble and breach the building entrances where their enemy waits to resist.
Their objective: to take control of the simulated ship and capture or eliminate enemy threats within it.
This was the goal during a three-day Maritime Interception Operations exercise held at a training facility in Barnwell, S.C., June 22-24.
The exercise provided integrated and sustainment training in the areas of breaching, fast-roping, tight-quarters maneuvering, and ship control for the raid force. Marines with 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit worked in cooperation with Helicopter Sea Combat 22 sailors based out of Norfolk, Va., as well as civilian law enforcement and military training instructors. The training utilized buildings renovated to simulate naval vessels. Marine scout snipers also trained in aerial assault by shooting targets on a nearby range from UH-N1 Huey and Navy MH-60S Seahawk Helicopters.
Despite the fact that the training took place inside a building and not a ship, the tight spaces and low-light environment provided a realistic feel for the Marines, said Lance Cpl. Stephen McCormick, a radio operator with Battalion Landing Team 3/8, 26th MEU.
“This building with its very enclosed spaces provided for good ship training since ships have narrow passageways,” McCormick said. Ship passageways and spaces are extremely narrow and become more difficult for Marines to maneuver through when they are wearing combat gear. This training helped prepare the Marines to overcome these kinds of challenges.
Inside the building the Marines encountered role-players offering varying degrees of compliance, including simulated gunfire from hostile personnel. The force also had to compete with language barriers, had to check for identification of people inside, and negotiate the challenges that come with simulated improvised explosive devices, said Chad Harbaugh, president of Government Training Institute, the company facilitating the training during the exercise.
“This building offered us a ton of flexibility,” Harbaugh said. “Training inside the building is analogous to training in the belly of the ship.”
The exercise is an important part of preparing 26th MEU Marines for their upcoming deployment as the MEU has dealt with similar situations in the past. In January 2009, 26th MEU provided support to Combined Task Force 151, an international naval task force set up in response to piracy attacks off the coast of Somalia.
“What these abilities provide the MEU commander is the ability to train with multinational Maritime Interception Operation teams and conduct real-world missions on different platforms as piracy has become more prevalent in the past few years,” said Lt. j.g. Carrie L. Muller, lead planner for the training event.
The Maritime Interception Operations exercise was one of the last land-based training evolutions for the MEU prior to its deployment. Next for 26th MEU is Composite Training Unit Exercise, during which MEU Marines will project power ashore from Naval vessels. After that, the Marines' Certification Exercise will be the last training event for the Camp Lejeune-based 26th MEU before deployment.
