I though the SAS held a vote, decided guns were nancy and now just go out on patrol in football tops with a bottle of Newky Brown in each hand?

that's only for door kicking stuff, anyway the SAS are far too OMFG5451337 to patrol stuff, if they were ever allowed to patrol the streets of Iraq all terrorism would end, as would crime, littering, swearing, etc, that would put far too many people out of a job so for the good of the economy they keep them on the leash.

Either that or you shouldn't believe every drunk british guy you meet who tells you he's one of 'them'

Do you mean there's a place where I can meet Brits that aren't drunk?

Lots more pictures in the same vein here (you gotta sign up but it's a thread worth reading). http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forum...owtopic=102475

Coming from Scotland, if there is such a place I've not found it, mind you I've not been looking hard & don't really want to either.

I assume it's the same stuff but here's where I got mine

You are a highly valued member of Airsoft Canada and I thank the good lord every day for your membership here.

I'm no expert on the SAS, but I recall someone saying they use whatever works best for the individual operator.

scheer · August 9th, 2008, 14:27

So far as I'm aware most of there kit is either modified or custom made to some extent or another, that's part of what makes me think the second set of pics are infact the SAS. They don't look Amercian in the slightest and the SFSG is meant to be blending with the Yanks, while the second lot of vest are custom jobs.

Humle · August 9th, 2008, 14:41

well I dunno if this has been up here before, probably has. But as you can see they seeme to use the same gear as the journos

PS. This reinforces the statement mad by ThunderCactus above ds.

That's SBS in Afghanistan, I must admit I'm the a big fan of the 'low drag' look, real men only need claymore bags & 4x 30rnd bandoliers

3rd one's SAS in Iraq '03

Low drag is the best way to draw attention off yourself

If you have read or have the book Bravo Two Zero by Andy McNab
in it there is a pic of him wearing his loadout and the vest he is wearing is a GPMG gunners vest.

Edited to add that this is for sale on a UK Airsoft forum.

Disclaimer. This does not belong to me nor am I selling it.

Good ole' Andy McNob. Nice to know he's out there, keeping britain safe from Johnny foreigner, with his extensive knowledge of hi-tech weaponry...

"saw this gun in a catalogue, think it said it was a f-something-or-other- anyway, it looked really cool. Not had a chance to fire it but this bloke down the pub said..."

thanks Andy, have a medal.

Said first by a very wise man.
