Wow spezzato con copri elmetto in marpat woodland e mimetica desertica?Che strano vederli abbinati in action..
Ultimamente si vede un pò di tutto, mimetiche spaiate (pantaloni desert e giacca woodland e viceversa), alte volte completi in woodland, etc etc. Immagino dipenda anche dalla regione in cui operano, non si direbbe ma in afghanistan la vegetazione è abbastanza variegata.
Si si quello si certo,una spezzata può anche risultare utile ma il solo telino dell'elmetto la vedo una cosa buffa...Quasi quasi mi viene il guizzo di settarmi così..
Se guardi qualche pagina più indietro vedrai che alcuni fanno anche il contrario, mimetica woodland e telino desert. :) Magari ti ho risparmiato di smontare tutto il telino dall'elmetto...
Si si,già visto!Non mi faccio mai mancare queste perle...No per ora l'avevo lasciato senza telino..Ma sai ora nel dubbio ne compro due,uno desert e uno marpat..Ahahahha
non serve comprarne due, è lo stesso telino reversibile :wink2:
Davvero?Questa mi é nuova,gran dritta!!!
Scatto particolarmente curioso ! :)

Lo usano anche gli italiani, penso sia quello dedicato per uno specifico modello di visore notturno (penso sia il PVS21) che usiamo appunto anche noi e i brit boys (quelli che si vedono nelle foto della task force black).
Si l'ho messa proprio per quello ;) E' il mount del PVS-21 come diceva anel.
esatto, l'ho visto proprio nelle foto della TF Black

Fà un effetto strano vedergli imbracciare fucili di fabbricazione russa. ma credo sia il bello di queste foto
Ahahahahaha chissà se chiederanno di sostituirgli gli M4....???
Al di la dell' L85, che vuoi per una cosa o per un'altra qualcuno deve averglielo dato (familiarizazione con armi di eserciti alleati? la butto li..)...ma + che altro...il senso di una M240 all'interno di un edificio (quando forse è più utile averla fuori -ma non entro in merito sulle scelte di professionisti come loro-)...certo è che non vorrei essere nei panni di chi si cimenterà a schivare colpi di .308...
Secondo me l'L85 all'interno di un edificio ha una marcia in più rispetto agli M4 effettivamente e per far pratica e/o prendere confidenza con più armamenti differenti,potrebbero aver scoperto che forse in ambienti stretti e angusti un bull-pup potrebbe avere importanza..L'M240 poi in realtà potrebbe aver significato solamente se raggiunto il tetto o una posizione più rialzata poi può coprire una zona più ampia come abbiamo in effetti visto in altre foto marines o sf sul tetto a cecchinare o coprire una vasta zona..
Implicando che davvero esista la possibilità che sostituiscano gli m4 con gli L85... :lol: Figurarsi che hanno schifato pure i 416 che almeno assomigliavano vagamente a dei colt.
Sarà solo per familiarizzare con le armi del contingente nato, come diceva marchino, se non sbaglio la regione di helmand dove operano i marines è in mano sia agli americani, che proprio alle truppe inglesi, quindi è normale che vengano addestrati all'uso delle loro armi, così come gli inglesi verranno addestrati all'uso delle varie carabine m4. :D
Mi sembra scontato che non prendano neppure in considerazione un'arma come l'L85 che ha creato + problemi che centri in un bersaglio...gli arsenali colt rimarranno tali ancora per migliaia di anni..
