This is the guy who will tell you civilians don't need "wEaPoNs Of WaR" like the "M16 I had in the service".

 

[NCFubar]

Man, wonder what the eye relief is on that version of VCOG?

 

[Timfoilhat]

Hmm, suddenly I'm craving chicken wings.

This looks like a setting where someone handed him that weapon too. I don’t know if that makes it better or worse (probably worse).

What's even better is the FB post from US Navy that I lifted the image from.

This means many people approved the image. Beyond just the perps on the tail fan. Lol

At least it looks like someone stole an image someone had shopped in the backwards scope. But still.....😂

So is it fake or not?

Who cares, it was posted on the official US Navy social media pages. Lol

Yea I get that, obviously whoever the navy has in charge of social media doesn't know much about guns.

I'm just wondering if they yanked some doctored image from the internet or someone really stuck the scope on backwards.

Lol the top section of the RIS is also not installed correctly

 

[Chuckman]

Lol, good thing I was always attached to the Marines!

IS THE SAFETY ON? What the heck is going on here?!?!

No. He’s firing full-auto.

He doesn’t need a good stance, as his buddy is holding his shoulder.

No, appears to have the giggle switch turned on to HAHAHAHA

Not even worthy of being called a squid.

Just a dumb civilian with several family members and friends who did/are serving so I am aware my humor is right in line🙃

The Navy has updated the post

 

[Amanda4461]

Somebody was deep in their Wokeness when they inserted the original image. DEI hard at work.
Murphy Rules🤣

Luckily the other services are trolling them on twitter.

Shooter is the CO. Heads will roll, starting with the armorer who set up the rifle, the guy who handed it to him, etc...

 

[Supermatch]

It's definitely a photoshop, you can see the original scope behind it and there are no rings around the one that's overlaid. But its still hilarious and he deserves to be dragged for that VFG/grip.

That vertical grip is as the kids now a days say is

CRINGE

don't worry, it's the navy. his buddy will probably be holding on to something else in a little bit.

Trijicon VCOG has an integrated scope mount (no rings) and there's a large battery compartment at the front of the scope so that's probably what you're seeing.

You're right. I didn't even notice it was a VCOG, I just saw the adjuster and it didn't dawn on me that it was the battery compartment on the other end. Even better!

I don't think it is (photoshopped). I wish it was. There's so many things wrong with this pic. I understand it was on social media for just a few minutes before it was taken down. I wonder if the CO (in the pic) will get fired like the rest of his counterparts.

 

[Button Pusher]

Good thing that he had a hand on his shoulder.

 

[Me.]

Not a Photoshop.

It doesn’t have rings, it’s an integrated mount

The Navy probably uses contractors to monitor and update their social media. There is probably a team of about 10 recent college graduates who are good at twitter and facebook but know nothing about the Navy, equipment, uniforms, or ships. Anyone want to guess what the pronouns are for these contractors?

That is EXACTY why I watched the eclipse with my binoculars reversed and sunglasses on.

1/20 the UV. It’s science.
