The weapons have their magazines inserted so unless you have x-ray eyes what are you basing your statement on?

And if you have a source for that why would you spread that publicly to put these soldiers at greater risk than their peon leaders have?

Loose lips sinks ships.

Whenever I hard guard duty at Ft Dix in the 60’s, the only guards who had live ammo were those guarding the ammo facilities. The MPs on duty at the stockade I believe had live ammo but not having had to visit it, I don’t know for sure. All others were either not armed or without ammo.

Looks like magazines to me.

I guess some people would “feel” better knowing the guns were not loaded. Wouldn’t want anyone to feel “uncomfortable”.

Who wrote this crap?

The photos are rather small and fuzzy, but to this trained eye, there are no magazines protruding from the magazine wells of any of the visible rifles in either of the photos.
