Came back to Iraq with these on my bed

[Toole]

Picture quality isn't the best... My camera battery was dying and I didn't bring the charger back to the COP with me.

SR-25
Suppressed, 10x scope, NV attachment, bipod

M14 EBR
10x scope, NV attachment, bipod, gangster grip, retractable buttstock

We pretty much only take them out on our sniper OP's watching out for IED emplacers and mortar/rocket shooters. Along with these two is usually an ACOG'd m249 with PEQ zero'd out to usually 200m and then the rest of the crew with M4's.

Thanks for the pic clean up. I've got photoshop but I'm not too useful with it anymore since I never play with it.

You're welcome, I really don't ever know what to say when people thank me as it is a job, but it is also my pleasure. I love my job somehow (cav scout). haha

That EBR is bad ass. Would really sex up my Socom II.

who makes those guns

The SR-25 is made by a company named Stoner Rifles
The M14 is made by Springfield **edited, went and double checked with my soldier who has it**

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Can you tell us how is the M110 working out in Iraq?

 

[Kirk Freeman]

The M14 was made by several manufacturers including Winchester, TRW, etc.

For a solid background of the history of the M14 I recommend The Last Steel Warrior, by Frank Iannamico.

"The Last Steel Warrior: U.S. M14 Rifle" Book by Frank Iannamico - MidwayUSA

Our section has the variant SR-25 (pretty much insignificant, but they varied slightly in the buttstock and rail system). As far as how they're working out, we haven't gotten the pleasure to actually use the beast except confirming/zeroing. As far as mobility, it is fairly light compared to other weapons we've had to lug around and not overly long, but that's about the only review I can give on it in a tactical sense.

I honestly don't know of any other guys using this rifle throughout Iraq, we are the only section in the platoon/troop/squadron, and as far as I know we may be the only ones in the brigade that has one.
