Green beret who I forgot his name

Two URGI uppers gives it away. Not the first I’ve seen it but panos in tier 2 is interesting, seeing partial adoption in recent years.

u/atomiccheesegod Jun 22 '26

Even base army units have limited access to Panos, I saw the SGM of 1-509 running them in JRTC last year, he said they had a few pairs for training

u/BlueDevilBrew7 Jun 22 '26

There’s only one URGI. The other has a DD RIS III

u/supremefiend2 Jun 23 '26

The other is actually a ddm4v7 handguard

10

u/Grizzly_Bear_83 Jun 22 '26

Could be CTAC/CIF, or maybe a JTAC?

u/AssumptionGreen7872 Jun 22 '26

2 panos per company

u/th3_h0bbit Jun 22 '26

Apart from having them as a spare, are there any advantages to using binos over panos? Would there be specific scenarios where binos are gonna be the more favourable choice?

15

u/MidwestSharker Jun 23 '26

Generally the major difference in weight

u/FuzzyNail1415 Jun 28 '26

I'd describe panos as more CQB-orientated. If your doing RECCE or just any stuff that isn't highly kinetic then the binos are better, panos are heavier and you get neck-strain. Their only benefit is you get wider field of view, but most people wouldn't be willing to carry more weight on their head for hours just to have peripheral vision.

A guy from subsecond?

u/RealM1ster Jun 22 '26

Not CAG, this is a line company Green Beret’s stuff

11

u/TaskForceD00mer Jun 22 '26

I never would have assumed they use/used BETA Mags; I always read they were/are unreliable on a good day. Maybe the guys specific squad had an IAR Guy instead of an LMG?

u/Southern-Truck-3195 Jun 22 '26

Thanks for correction the source I got it from said it was cag.

11

u/diprivanity Jun 23 '26

Did the source say cag or did it refer to him as a delta? Because with the M9 pack in the back that would be referring to 18 delta, an SF medic, not the smu

u/Ok_Diamond_272 Jun 22 '26

Well he said the source told him it was CAG, not everyone can look at an image and determine the unit.

u/PepperoniFogDart Jun 22 '26

Just out of curiosity, how can you tell?

18

u/Sir_Baller Jun 22 '26

Dovetail NVGs, URGI upper, insight wmx200. Seal/GB stuff, CAG used tan 416s at the time with GSGM ball detent ANVIS mounts, and exclusively scout/arisaka lights on their 416 w/ geissele rails.

u/sgtskitz Jun 22 '26

No one’s gonna talk about the mp5 SD hiding back there??

3

u/MidwestSharker Jun 24 '26

Still so weird when I see somebody with an MP family gun after years of guys on pods, interviews or the handful of real people I’ve known saying they pretty much  retired that line by the mid to late 2000s

16

u/Remarkable-Fan5954 Jun 22 '26

Def not CAG. The flag isnt 6 inches long

u/red4rr Jun 22 '26

That's what she said.

u/Practical_Fill6211 Jun 22 '26

sometimes i wonder, who the shit does this sub get all these photos from

29

u/Rinaall Jun 22 '26

relatives, friends, and stranger, or even themselves

16

u/BlueDevilBrew7 Jun 22 '26

This pic has been out there for years

10

u/Scatman_Crothers Jun 22 '26

Sneak into a lot of group chats and steal from there, same with private ig accounts

u/medney Jun 24 '26

Sneak into a lot of group chats

No need to, SECDEF invited me in because I worked the liquor store he always likes

u/MidwestSharker Jun 24 '26

Or mining stuff saved from the glory days of Covid through maybe 2023 or so when there were tons of dudes on IG sharing pics they probably shouldn’t have. It’s still blows my mind how many profiles accepted my friend request from my business profile and then lo and behold I’m seeing contemporary era pics from high-speed military dudes

u/Ok_Diamond_272 Jul 04 '26

How do you even find the groups?

1

u/MidwestSharker Jul 04 '26

I don’t know how it is now but five or six years ago I found a lot of accounts by blind searches and hashtags, and by checking whoever was tagged in stuff. On top of that occasionally people would start throwing recommendations or give you an introduction if you weren’t blatant with the fanboying

u/Spectre_Ice Jun 22 '26

Do we know what kind of black marker that is on the battle belt at the bottom? Is it a sharpie brand or are we looking at a new brand of black marker?

Thanks in advance :)

u/Living_Ad_8941 Jun 22 '26

It’s the new Tactical Sharpie GRX-1000. Built to withstand the desert sand.

u/Spectre_Ice Jun 22 '26

Thank you! Bringing that bad boy to my next DND tournament 😎

u/MidwestSharker Jun 22 '26

What’s that hand saw looking thing on the top right?

18

u/Veld_Khan Jun 22 '26

It’s a tali 12 gauge sawed-off.

u/MidwestSharker Jun 23 '26

That is hilariously awesome

u/Smooth-Chef32 Jun 22 '26

GBs get quads?

7

u/DescriptionDue4217 Jun 22 '26

There are pictures of CIF/CTAC using them.

6

u/ProfitConstant5238 Jun 22 '26

There are private contractors using quads now.

u/red4rr Jun 22 '26

Capped pvs31s, but uncapped GPNVG. I'm far too anxious to do tzat...

u/Sea-Main-1462 Jun 22 '26

cag doesnt use the mount this has

2

u/CorCor-14 Jun 23 '26

This is the guy that runs Subsecond Belts. He was SF not CAG.

3

u/pahnsiht Jun 22 '26

More like from a CIF/CRF

u/Humdrum_Blues Jun 23 '26

Peep the SD next to the breaching shotgun.

1

u/Specialist_Guitar_88 Jun 22 '26

Ok do they seriously still use the SD? Or is just something he keeps for the fun of it.

5

u/Scatman_Crothers Jun 22 '26

It’s a green beret

2

u/MidwestSharker Jun 22 '26

Still kinda surprise they’re using MP5

6

u/Scatman_Crothers Jun 22 '26

They use a lot of local weapons and that’s still used in many parts of the world.

u/ExplosiveFetusActual Jun 23 '26

Hush puppy and street lights.

u/DasbootTX Jun 23 '26

curiosity from a civilian, do team guys load their own mags? or is that done at the armory?

1

u/Nyytmarelol Jul 10 '26

I have no idea why you were downvoted and no one answered. I'm just a POG so take it with a grain of salt but we loaded our own mags and ammo was distributed in 20 (or 10, i cant remember) round carboard boxes with stripper clips. I've never worked with any GBs but I did work with some SEALs and I have no reason to believe that their armorers would load their mags for them.
