Are you sure some of the pics are not Private Contractors?

well, the guy in the top pic has an all blue union jack on his uniform, and the guy in the third pic has a scottish flag insignia where the other one had the union jack. And at least two of the people posing in the last picture are women, one of them black. I'd say that they're probably UK contractors.

See this thread. The last picture you posted is #33 on this thread. The lady at the driver's door is the daughter of FReeper Indy Pendance.

Nice looking weapon...wonder how it shoots? I especially like the folding stock version; get rid of that stupid broomstick front grip and it would be a great behind the seat rifle for my truck.

It is a licensed copy of the IDF Gaili rifle.

The guy in the Blue Tee in the second pic seems to be wearing a ROLEX. If so that's the trademark of American SF or maybe Delta....but the A-Teams love them.

Hmmmmm the SIDEARM looks vaguely GLOCK-ish. I've heard that some of the guys in 5th Group are carrying Glocks because that's the issue weapon to the Iraqi police and since SF is embedded and training them, they get to carry what the students carry. Glock or maybe....HK?

Only joined the forum now. Interesting that the M-21 is linked to the Galil. I know that the Serbs intercepted a shipment of South African R4 during the war period. It would make more sense that they used these examples and not the Galil when designing the M-21. Of course the Galil is itself a licensed copy of the Galil, but it has the plastic forestock parts (Galil is wood)... Stock is also slightly longer (apparently average South Africa was taller than average Israeli soldier).
