Maybe 15 years ago it would’ve been worth boasting about this stuff but this tech is about 20 years old now (maybe longer @Gessler ?)

More strawman stuff.
It is the standard for civilians in low intensity situations? Really?
How is a situation where you are in harm's way, whether that is from a home invader, robber, or enemy combatant low intensity?
If you're learning how to fire a weapon, you are doing so to be able to defend yourself in an actual situation, and there the intensity will be high, for sure.
If you've to fire a rifle effectively, maintaining a cheekweld is the basics for accuracy.

To add to that, an SF soldier is expected, and trained, to keep his reflexes sharp and his drills smooth in a combat situation, that's the whole point.
You're contradicting yourself here.

Don't come up with any logic under the sun, just to keep trying to prove a point.


Turn that logic around, and it doesn't make it wrong just because Indian SF do it.
That's your opinion, it's not a fact.

Your opinion as a layman doesn't count for much against the opinion of a professional who's worked around firearms for the most part of his adult life, especially when the two are in direct contradiction.

As for the other units in the world, Israelis do it with the X95 too. Essentially the same weapon as the TAR. I've already pointed out in another post where what you had had talked about the IDF rejecting the Tavor - which isn't the case in reality.

Sure buddy, try doing one of VTAC’s 9 hole boards whilst maintaining a perfect cheek weld


I do hope we get to see PARA SF shooting drills using that board, they very rarely go beyond pictures

Either way, as I keep saying- there’s a reason why pretty much every elite force on the planet uses an AR type platform and never went down the bull pup route- not even countries where their regular forces have bullpups (U.K., France, Australia etc). If you can’t see the inherent issue with this then I can’t help you

This is basically the original SOPMOD Block-1 kit from early/mid-90s. So yeah about ~25 years old.

I hope this complex is state of the art by international standards and not just Indian standards- it should have movable walls, provision for night time simulations, bullet monitoring etc

It’s interesting they’ve created this at A&N and they have identified sending foreign units to train there. ANC can be quite an interesting place if developed right


+ it has to be done-no battle belts, ear pro/comtacs, using elbow pads and SMGs (sorry but this is a completely debunked utility). But at least they aren’t doing that close formation Indian stack and there’s high readies for be seen

MP9 with Marcos?

Why not? Plenty of them floating around india these days and MARCOs have some ancient MP5s theh likely needed replaced

using elbow pads and SMGs

Meh ignore the Elbow pads man, also SMGs there are multiple units out there who still use them including GIGN, DSI, GSG9 The good thing is the distribution of the guns in the team i like that

I dont think so they upgraded those on the same lines as the NSG ones, A&N is a tri command so could have picked up from the Armys Inventory if its indeed Marcos
