Thankfully I've had my once a year weapons dealings. Out in the desert some of the US Security Forces with their pistols strapped to their legs look barely old enough to have escaped high school... :o

I recently got to use an MP5 like the one you have, cool little gun  ;D

Recently had the chance to play airsoft at Camp Pendleton MOUT facility #131 as a "Training evolution" and used that little thing. Great thing to play with  :D

Also a fan of that M-16 ish thing you have.  Don't know a lot about AEG's as I mainly stick with my spring sniper rifles.  ;)


Edit:

Forgot,  I was out shooting the other day and saw another person out with a GOLDEN Desert Eagle... Didn't think they made those that actually fired bullets  :o  Loud sucker too.  :P

I'm going to take a swing at the one on the left...M16A4 Silenced and mounted for sniping?  Never seen that before, didn't think they would use 5.56 for sniping, seems it would be a bit small of a round for long range killing.

SPR is the correct wording, that particular one is a SPR Mk12 Mod 0

It's more of a DMR platform rather than dedicated long range sniping.

Like the Dragunov (squad level sniper rifle)

Got this from the article...

Ammunition: The SPR is not used to fire standard issue 5.56 x 45 mm NATO M855 ball or M856 tracer ammunition, and especially not M193 ball ammunition. Due to the limits in terminal performance and relatively poor accuracy of the 62-grain (4 g) M855 ball, the Mk 262 Open Tip Match (OTM) round was developed as a more accurate round for the SPR, and manufactured by Black Hills Ammunition.

Small rounds, yet fabricated to be more accurate than standard BALL rounds.  This rifle could be called "Sniper Rifle Light," or "Diet Sniper Rifle."

the Mk.11 takes 7,62x51 rounds, a round that can kill stuff without having to get a perfect vitals shot. The Deagle though, I'd love to go plinking with one of those!

a 5.56 SWS isn't the smallest one out there. the Russians have a rifle called the SV-99, It's a .22 LR   :o
