Kind of an odd source, and there is a bigger version on their fronts page, but it rotates with other pics.

Is that an RMR or a Deltapoint on that handgun? Is that an FN? I didn't know red dot handguns were US issue?

I'm not sure what it is, but here's the larger version of the pic:

No expert but... The angle from which the photo was taken could be distorting the actual overall size and shape. With that said I might lean towards an HK M302 with no verticle grip and the stock closed. As far as the sighting system I am not very familiar with that platform and the accessories for it. Plus you always have the COTS and Internet purchaces some of the guys do while deployed or shortly before thier deployment.

Just a shot in the dark.

Thanks for the bigger pic Captain.

It is kind of a weird angle. It seems like a really blocky Glock? It almost seems like the RDS is on a platform like a competition gun set-up that attachs via the accesory rail mount???

Here's HKs pic of a stock-less M320. I see the idea that it is a big 'handgun', but the gun in the pic seems smaller than the HK320?

The guys head appears really small compared to the firearm and his own arms, so maybe it's a weird angle thing like someone else mentioned.

Kinda looks like a FN 303P with a red dot sight and a tan frame.

FN 303P (.68 caliber less lethal)
