I've seen this video several times. What I don't understand is why these guys were putting a "weapon" in the field? What good would it do there? Was it actually an explosive that would be detonated once a car drove by?

My guess is that they're 'stashing' a weapon to either prevent it being discovered at a roadblock, or for someone else's later retrieval and use. Emplacing a 'mechanical ambush' or IED takes some time and we'd be more likely to see a man or two crouched down in one spot for a period of time, doing some delicate work- if that were the case. And- it's way too far off of the road to be an IED.

Thanks, but another thing that is confusing. Where does the 3rd guy come from? Was that some sort of third truck that pulled up near the end, on the left hand side of the screen (near where both the 1st and 2nd guys are gunned down)?
