Eagle eyes, what do you see?

I had to post this pic to show someone the extent we (I) took to "dust proof" my M16A2.

And yes it's the real deal.

****EDIT TO ADD*** 1/27/08 21:05****
The rules are that whoever posts the proper nomenclature, or closest description of items in my combat load AND estimates as close as possible to the weight of all my gear will get a authentically used black Pmag, where it's legal of course.

I know military guys will have th eadvantage and a couple of things have already been mentioned. You'll have to post it openly. The first to list everything wins or whoever finds the most by 2200 forum time 2/1/08. No more clues.

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

C'mon aziator. You guys hauled us around. What is shaped like that????!!!

 

[Ranly]

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

Sooo, carry that stuff often... jk are you infantry in the marines?

 

[Ranly]

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

are we talking about the long skinny white thing your helmet rests on our the squarish tarp looking thingy under the mortar round???

 

[i303]

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

I thought you were referring the long skinny thing. Look at both pics and the other will tell you what it is. Army infantry, and I was.

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

I was going to say a mortar tube or an M-60...Hard to tell when It is all wrapped up.

I know what you mean about a body bag, you zip it up in the morning and no critters can crawl into your sleeping bag during the day to great you at night. Morbid??? Maybe. Better than a scorpion in the sack.

I can't give it away. Someone will get it.

 

[aziator]

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

Is it a Bangalor??? I seriously don't have a clue now. I wish I was back at CTU HQ so I could have Chloe Enhance image...

Edit:

Maybe a LAW or AT4 (not sure if you had AT4 back then??)

Re: Where is Waldo? Eagle Eyes...

Man, I don't want to give it away. It was the bigest single thing I humped. Think what to 11B carry, that is cylindrical, we left it in the plastic to sand and rain didn't make it go bad, mainly moisture.
