A video of French Commando Parachutistes in action... haven't really watched it properly as am at work.

Anyway, it seems they're delivering fresh supplies of garlic sausage to the battlefield :)

interesting video, with glow sticks, quad bikes, very artistic camo paint and one guy carrying the largest rifle i've ever seen!
I don't speak French so i don't know what's going on in most of the video, but it appears to be an excercise, somewhere in Africa i think.

His rifle is massive. Gutted if you get shot with that. Gutted if you get shot with anything actually :oops: .

HEHE i aint watched it yet, but bless em...... fancy they go through all that trouble to retreat :-? hehehe

-they should perhaps worry about supporting the nations that are selfless enough to protect the world from tyrants whilst these garlic munching gay boys are wittering about euros and bloody head scarves.......... ahhh i feel much better after that....

quick question, why do the French have a natural ability to rile people... does anybody actually like the French ???!?!?!??!?

Is that even possible?

Silencer on a .50, yeah it's possible, just has to be BIG! Don't know how silent it would be, maybe in this case the word, 'surpressor' would be better.

Haven't seen the vid, but rather than a suppressor, I'd guess it (whatever it is) might be a recoil compensator.
