Could be a number of units. Royal Marine Close Protection have been seen with 5's and 53's, as have Fleet Protection Unit (though why they would be in the sand box I've got no idea). SFSG use them, as do the booty heli support lads.

saw this pic on another forum and he is heli support

Re: UKSF Photo Thread

I wonder how hard it is to shoot at an unstable platform (another vessle) from a zodiak?

also are those 9mm mp5's or would they be .40S&W?

look at the flash hider :p
could be wrong though, it is quite late.

Could be an HK53, probably more likely.

Re: UKSF Photo Thread

yeah, i sorta meant that, but i always get confused with the names of those two. the HK53 is the 5.56 one isnt it?
and the mc51 is 7.62?

Re: UKSF Photo Thread

Indeed, but they only made 50 MC51's and it turned out to be a fail so was dropped in favor of the 53.

I would doubt very much that there are any 51's still in the Armoury, I'll ask.

Warrior RICAS full size (new model) FTW!

Re: UKSF Photo Thread

I've seen that on another site, that's usually pretty accurate, quoted as met.

It would be very unusual to see a pmc with a g36, but it's standard issue for SO1
