Wow, I see alot of different optics and configurations there. Astonishing! And next to the M4A1s and M16A4s I even see a M635 sub machine gun in some of the pictures! Great work, ggk, as always

More exact specifications (no guarantee that everything I write is fully correct ):

M4A1 with Trijicon ACOG, RIS Handguard with front grip.

police field force on duty....

You don't see these uniforms very often, thanks Dewafrost. Even though one has to admit that it's actual performance as camouflage should not be that great

i have a few questions here:
1. when did this picture taken? i see mix of M16 and Aug.
2. Is body armor a standard equipment for the army?

thanks in advance.

1. that pic quite present day,but, its not the M16, it is the M4 actually, till now we still can see the mix between the AUG and the M4 but just only a few numbers in a platoon size. maybe only radio operator or leader being issue with the M4...

2. no, body armour is not a standard equipment, they will issue the body armour when you involved in any UN peacekeeping works.......

Is that Brunei soldier using a Diemaco (now Colt Canada) made C7? Is appear to have the M16A2 handgrip and deflector with A1 rear sights.

good job David

regarding the bulletproof vest it is not issued to soldier who were operating during peacetime and especially for soldier during jungle op, but it is issued in pecekeeping mission or mission on foreign soil.

FYI: This blue lizard pattern was used by General Operations Force (PGA), the paramilitary troop of Royal Malaysian Police. It was replaced by new subdued woodland camouflage as below.

No, according to my informations Brunei has it's M16's (various versions) delivered directly from Colt, USA. But a interesting detail you noticed there!

What can I say, I'm an AR15 fanboy. Anyway, I'm glad the Malaysian Army is finally adopting the M4. After the scandal that the license built AUG was, the M4 will hopefully bring quality and reliability back to the soldiers in the field.

Cheers.

These pics all seem to come from another MY/SG combined exercise.

PASKAU

Paskau and are they the SAS same?

Paskau and are they the SAS same?

no, PASKAU is an Air Force Commando, not equivalent to SAS, the army RGK/GGK and police VAT69 are equvalent with the SAS.....
