The official Tactical and Tacticool thread.

Lets start out with what look like Recon Operators doing some shooting drills on deck. (I make this assumption because of their 1911's as the SEALs are currently using SIGs. I'm open to correction on this.)

Next up we have (what I believe) some SAS blokes.

Whats this? 1st SFOD-D operators? Doing what they do best.
Flight suit, Balaclava, modified flight gloves, armor and a delicious MP5SD3.

What look like Canadian EOD's (or simply SF) in their very distinct CADPAT.

Heres a shot from CONTOMS tactical medic school. In this excersize there is a swat team shooting over your head at targets behind you so you get use to bullets flying over your head and the guy next to you is shooting as well. Pretty cool stuff. I get to go thru the program and get my tactical certification this coming Summer and I can't wait. http://departments.weber.edu/ce/pd/paramedic/CourseDetails.htm

Gold Cross has sent medics in with SWAT on alot of occasions lately most noteably the recent Trolley Square shooting in SLC. I'm very excted to become tactically certified. The best way to spot a Gold Cross tactical medic in a situation is rubber gloves, a HUGE backpack, and no gun.

A few MOLLE Vest configurations and examples.
Vests Are usually setup with ammunition on the lower abdomen, with admin pouch up top if you're carrying maps or other items like that, utilities on the sides and water, etc on the rear if you've got a bladder. Seems pretty straightforward.

That weapon has not been the benchmark by which all other pistols are compared for so long because they suck.
Not saying there aren't better things out there nowdays, but still a very good choice.

Its funny how that works isn't it? I've been shooting with my dad as far back as I can remember. He's never been real keen on the idea of me doing anything resembling SWAT myself though.

My life plan after the USMC was to go Law Enforcement with the goal of SWAT.

Before the Marines I wanted to be a Deputy sheriff, Go swat, etc, but he told me that they're currently looking at people with actual CQB experience, Rangers, Marines, and the like.

I've heard that, I have no intention of being a SWAT officer but I'll be a SWAT medic when they need me even though the prospect of going into a situation like that without a weapon is alittle frightening.

One of my friends has a Five-seveN, it is SUCH a neat gun!

I can agree with you on the count of the H&K Submachine guns and rifles.

I did NOT enjoy the same friend's USP, it just didn't feel right in my hands.

[Triangle]

That MP5 pic you included looks like hell to hold. Why include a vertical foregrip RIGHT in front of a Beta C mag? Looks really uncomfy, haha.

Actually the USP is one of the few I have never shot or even held.

I was more just posting a pic of an MP5 not nessessarily that one as yes, it does look odd to hold.

It's pretty big, Im not a fan of most double stacked pistols.

The select few that I Do like are the SIG's I rew up shooting, and the Beretta's.
There are others, but I hate 1911 raceguns, USPs, etc etc.

I think in the very first picture, the punisher head is Seal Team 3 out of Coronado Ca. I could be wrong though. They look much more from SPECWARGRU then they do from force recon. And they have that "I am going to kill you 2 times" look to them...

EDIT: Google image search confirms it is SEAL Team 3 -- that is their OIF patch ...

[Triangle]

It very well may be, the only thing I could go on were their sidearms.

Either way, thats one of my favorite pictures.

[MedicDVG]

Yep.. I found a listing for the patch on google image search. It is the OIF patch for SEAL Team 3.

The jolly rodger is, I think, SEAL Team 6 of Demo **** Marchinko fame.. but I am just pulling that out of my ***..

I know both have seen extensive action over here, as has SEAL Team 8...

But you didn't hear it from me....

The FOB that I am at is kind of 'out there' in terms of both the location, and the political situation... one day I was sitting in the DFAC and these 'guys' sit down around me and just wolf their food... they are shaggy, scruffy, ragged, and tired looking. They look like 10 miles of bad road... The don't say a word except for one guy as he gets up he looks at me and says... "Now you can tell your grandkids you ate lunch with the Great 8." lol... I love SEALS.. they are so humble.. lol...

the triangle-bryce buff post thread, sorry i have nothing to offer than a name for this thread.

Its kind of sad, but I could go on with tactical stuff forever and I bet Triangle could as well. I use to be the bad guy in SWAT training scenarios a few years back, it was awsome they treated it like a real situation so I've been in houses when they blew my baracades, I've been flash banged(I want some of those bad, they're awsome),and all sorts of other stuff. I've also been to TEMS confrence, and basically I could go on forever.

That guy was the real deal, man.

To make sure I remembered correctly I looked it up. I found that he had a service record of 93 confirmed kills and more than 300 probable kills during the Vietnam War.

I do remember for sure the distance of his longest shot, which was 2,286 meters or 1.42 miles

[Papa_Smurf]

Triangle, was it a Browning .50 Machine gun? I was told that, and it was converted by the man himself to be a single shot operation.

This all right?

[flank]

yea the 1911 is one hell of a pistol. I've only had the chance to go skeet shooting with my buddies and it was pretty fun. I thought it was gonna be alot harder to hit the skeet but nah it was fairly easy.

And I believe then the only person to more than him in one shot confirmed kills was a female from Russia at 101 confirmed.
