Nice.

Rather lacking in mention of specialist weapons though. I've seen MP5's, MP7's, H&K 53's, G3's, Sig 226's and 229's all being used by RMP close protection teams. Just imagine what the Hereford and Poole lads can get their hands on!

Specialist weapons are just that though. This is just a brief overview of current equipment and weapons being used by the main stream branch of the army.

Your correct in the fact that Sig pistols, MP5/7 and Demarco rifles are being used, but this is just for a brief overview

I agree. It would have been nice to see them though.

The picture of the Stormer brought back a funny memory of mine. A few years ago, with a car load of RMP recruits learning to drive, we were doing emergency stops on one side of a runway, while a Stormer was being used to train guys for their tracked licence on the other. They go right up on the front of the treads when they do an emergency stop - really impressive and no comparison to what you did when you learned to drive a car!
