Sorry can't help with the scope (do see and ACOG and a M2), but sure looks like somebody "shit in their Cheerios" the day this pic was taken.....

Or maybe their feelin like a "prime" target all bunched up together as they are....

On the left hand side of the picture, the weapon looks like a Mk 12 MOD 0 or MOD 1 SPR.  In that case the scope would most likely be Leupold TS-30A2 3.5-10x40 as far as I know.

I can't comment on the one on the right hand side of the picture.

any takers?

Kinda looks like a Burris Fullfield II 3x9x40

Those are all just unit modified M16A4s.

The only scope I can ID for sure is the TA31 ACOG, and an Aimpoint.

To me form the top Pic. from left to right looks like a Leatherwood do to the over size rear variable adjustment, mount, and the and that there is on wind or elevation turrets, the other scope I can’t see, the Trijicon is a Compact ACOG you can tell by the small front bell and the way the back looks, the guy in the back looks like he has a Leatherwood also,  the last guy look like a Aimpoint.  I could be wrong!

Thanks for the game.
