It's a Vlermuis (Bat), SADF Recce's LSV.

[Phil642]

Is that an fnc?

Yes
It almost looks like an ak5 :D

The Ak5 (Assault Rifle 5) derived from the FN FNC, a very rugged rifle because of a cheap design with few parts and easy to handle charachteristics. It looks like it's been designed from the principle; keep it simple stupid. This rifle never fails to fire. Used by the entire Swedish military forces.

The FNC was adopted by Sweden and Indonesia, and both those countries purchased the licenses to build more or less modified FNC carbines at their own facilities. Swedish version is known as Bofors AK-5 and Indonesian version is known as Pindad SS1.

So we were both right ;)

Is that an fnc?

Yes
It almost looks like an ak5 :D

The Ak5 (Assault Rifle 5) derived from the FN FNC, a very rugged rifle because of a cheap design with few parts and easy to handle charachteristics. It looks like it's been designed from the principle; keep it simple stupid. This rifle never fails to fire. Used by the entire Swedish military forces.

The FNC was adopted by Sweden and Indonesia, and both those countries purchased the licenses to build more or less modified FNC carbines at their own facilities. Swedish version is known as Bofors AK-5 and Indonesian version is known as Pindad SS1.

So we were both right ;)
I am swede so I know that, but there modified version looks like the swedish modified version.

Unfortunately you are wrong. Everything I own is real and non-Airsoft. The tri-camo was to show off the different versions of cammo I have/use for different situations.
