Yep, I was wondering how long it would take the general public to get/see pictures of them(and others) running SCARs. Not a surprise really as it is made by FN as in Fabrique Nationale. I'd imagine it is safe to say we will see more pictures from this region of the world and host nation troops running the SCAR where we are involved and or have interests in.

I said the same shit yesterday when I read the news. SCAR-H funding courtesy of blood diamonds and AIDS infested hookers!
On my monitor it looks like the guy in the middle with the AR is just rocking a buis.
That's why I can't find a tan scar!
Interesting, what's the September temp in Kenya?
Yesterdays pictures seemed like it was warm with women wearing short sleeves. These thin blooded soldiers look like they are ready for a New England October.
I'd think file photo but I remember when I was in the Philipines sweating my New England nads off the PI Marines would be wearing knit hats, wooly pulleys and field jackets.

This doesn't surprise me. I've known Kenyan distance runners to wear full warm-up suits in very hot and muggy weather.
Considering half of Africa uses FAL's and the way we love to throw money at 3rd world shitholes.... Not really suprised.
A skinny with a scar vs a skinny muzzie with an AK/FAL/G3. Atleast they are not outgunned.
Hope they all have BUIS, how long you think the suppy of batteries are going to last on those EoTechs or before they are sold/pawned for some brown/brown?

This attack is a product of HSM. They are not AQ. HSM is allied to AQ.

Wait, is that a bad way to get a few SCARs? You have the wheels in me brain turning.....
Hmm...I read that as Armaheavy wishing the Kenyans the best in their crisis, rather than AQ. Doesn't really matter to me who is doing the attacking, I hope the Kenyans wrap it up with as few casualties as possible.
I have heard it said that HSM is a cell of AQ, because their battle flags are similar and they reportedly pledged allegiance in early 2012. I see them as separate, and as allies of AQ after the late 2012 merger/split fiasco.

You're correct. I was referring to the Kenyans, our allies that have already shed blood with us.
I met a Kenyan soldier some years back. He was over here for some training at Benning, and his uniform may not have been the best, his boots certainly were crap, but that was what he was issued so it wasn't his choice.
He was probably one of the most professional soldiers that I met during my time.
Indians and Arrows...
That may be a file photo, but I watched live footage on Sky news (I love apple tv btw) and they were all over that mall in long sleeves with same Scars and what appeared to be M4s, one for sure running a Sopmod stock. I am sure we paid for them, and I wish them the best hunting when it comes to aq.
Thats a pic from Liberia. I was over there during the war in 1990. That guy looks normal compared to other of the rebels fighting.
Looking at the limited photos I have seen of the Kenyan soldiers with their weapons handling they look like they accepted their training.
Did Liberia round 2 in '96 and yep, that was the norm then too. Oh, them and the "Butt Naked Clan" who were running around wearing nothing but an AK, a cartridge belt and a smile...
I think they got more colorful as they desended further into the madness. Prince Johnson and his followers were as crazy as things got in 90. His crazy style certainly got the ears of President Doe. What an absolutely volatile mix - ignorance, mental health problems and an unlimited access to arms.
Really ruined what could have been a great posting. I never got in any fishing and only golfed once on the antenna field before things went to crap. It was neat though playing tennis with rounds going overhead.
Oh Im sorry does that sound callous of me considering some very good people, only wanting to enjoy a simple peaceful life, got crushed in a war fought by absolute lunatics?
By gosh your right!
I went in and removed a layer on the photo that consisted of DPMS cammo and the helmets. What I found was an Illinois reg plate on the truck and hoodies - this is actually a group guys arriving at a Chicago picnic!
nope, no photoshop here, around 20 seconds in

I've been watching this on the news and I swear I saw at least one Kenyan military running and gunning with a tan SCAR. Most of the guys seem to be using old rusted HKs and AKs though.
Their leader was called "General Butt Naked" he's a born-again Christian preacher now I think.

I never saw any of the Butt Naked Militia but there was one guy that used to sit naked around the corner from the Marine House and if he had to run it would be footprint, footprint, footprint, footprint with a line running the entire length of his dash from his kick stand hanging down.
It's easy to not be impressed with that if you consider my Irish heritage, every thing is big, but even the dark green Marines spoke of that man with awe.
fuck dude, thats the 17 too! i can live with them playing with the 16...but the 17?!?....how is kenya getting more ninja shit than us??!?

Interesting thread.......
Must be nice to have that kind of gear.
Todays high is low 80's with a low of 59 in Nairobi tonight. I guess theyre not terribly over dressed. And the SCARS are for sure airsoft haha
