I bet those blue helmets make it easy to aim.  I wouldn't want to wear one.

That's what I am thinking but what country still uses semi-autos as frontline guns?

hmm....so do you all have equal disdain for U.S. forces that are serving as part of a U.N. mission?

or is that different?

Nope, just them.

Look like SKS's that take AK mags. Wherever they are from, I suspect this may be the high point of their lives. That, or they've learned to suppress their sophistication.

is it possible that they are berettas'.  I think the Italians had an older rifle that resembled those....

OK... from the "How the fek did you know that?" category, I have this to offer:

Those are Bangladeshi (or Bengal) troops stationed in Bunia (City in the Democratic Republic of Congo) for the MUNOC operation.

Bangladesh used the SKS for years which was "replaced" by the G3 which is now being phased out in favor of Type 56 carbines and Chinese AKs while a new rifle is being designed/approved that will also use the 7.62 x 39 cartridge.  Apparently their G3s crapped out  Only one division is left using G3s.

The troops in this pic are probly just using old rifles, for whatever reason.  They are definately SKSs but the fixed mags have been removed.  This threw me off as I had no idea a reliable removable mag system was available for the SKS...  fancy that.

So... no Berettas or anything fancy.
