View Full Version : When will HK release their special edition "Face Shot" HK45C?

I was thinking, since it was Devgru that killed the late waste of space Osama, it is likely that he was shot in the face with either (1) A SCAR CQC, (2) an HK416 (10.5) or very likely (3)a HK45C with suppressor and Laser Aiming device.
If it is 3 it is time for HK to release the HK45c Tactical model as the HK45C FS "Face shot" model. :laugh:
Ah, I tickle myself.

I was thinking 9mm Hk MP5 or the Sig P226 NSW
It would be nice if it was the old grand 45ACP that took him out.

I'm hoping it was a Mk. 18.

What makes you think it was a secondary weapon? What possible evidence is there? Why in the hell would he be using his secondary unless his primary malfed?

Cause they are such bad-asses, they probably got bored and wanted a challenge. Probably a quickdraw shot from the hip and numb-nuts still took one to the head and chest...:cool:

Not only do I have a hard time believing it.
I don't believe it at all.
Post one picture of any American soldier using one in combat.
We have pics of 416s, SCARs, Mk. 18s, etc.
I have never seen a picture of a CM901 in the wild. Ever.

Just because we haven't seen any pictures, doesn't mean it didn't happen. There are KAC EMC's somewhere out there doing bad things to bad men also. But we've never seen any pics of those either. The men responsible for taking down UBL are notoriously camera shy.

Coming from anyone else I'd call bullshit, but the guys at Soldier Systems are no chair commandos. They wouldn't print it if they weren't sure, and I've no doubt they have the right sources.
Now who are the early adopters, and the guys who can pick and choose the equipment they want, from the cutting edge? JSOC. They're also the ones you'll see least depicted in official photos..

Sorry guys but you are all mistaken. My inside sources tell me that Chuck Norris threw a bullet at Osama from over a mile away. Case closed :sarcastic:

True. Soldier Systems is squared away. Considering that the DevGru guys can carry essentially what they want, they could have just as easily used a 300 blk as anything else, who knows? We will probably never know all of the details and the facts will forevermore remain rumors and speculation.

ST6 is not your average American soldier. They are on the same level as Delta. And to my understanding can use what ever they have in inventory and I can assure you, they have more in inventory than your average American soldier. And like someone else posted, could have even been new the 300 AAC Blackout. Nonetheless, we will never know. Well, most will never know.

The kid on guard duty in the chow hall at Camp Ninja who makes sure nobody takes more than two gatorades (He says he is a liquid assest security specialist) told me that he knows a guy who works for KBR.
.....Well anyways Mr. KBR knows a guy who used to work for Blackwater, who cannot tell us his real name, but now works for Xe, and has the call sign "Shooter". He says that Shooter says that he got a call as soon as Osama was dead.
He is personally being sent the weapon that killed Osama. This is because he personally saved an entire team from imminent death once. This was back in WW Nam. He was up the Ho Chi Min trail, fighting the French and Indians, when his Humvee hit an IED and it took out a wagon wheel.
He says the weapon that took out Osama was nothing less than a multi cam dipped Whammo slingshot, shooting tungsten penetrator balls.
No kidding.
And in all seriousness, my hat is off and my glass is raised to the fine men that contributed to the team effort to get that scumbag. Not only the shooters, but to everyone. From the grease monkeys who lube the aircraft, to the "TOCroaches who sit in the TOC and do their very best to give accurate, up to the second information, to the logistics support people. Without the team effort, victory does not happen.

The professionalism, abilities and excution of the Devgru operators and their support is simply jaw dropping.

You KNOW it's true. Ruger started selling a "Coyote Edition" LCP that reportedly sold like hotcackes after our immaculately groomed Texas governor got all sorts of press for shooting a coyote with his. A freakin' coyote.
If HK does release it, it'll no doubt be a much better seller than ADT's Abbott&Costellobad Edition Home Security System. I think OBL got screwed on the burglar alarms. :sarcastic:

Whatever was used, I think it should be given to the actual shooter as a memento.
Somewhere out there, there is a guy with one hell of a "war story". One he will probably never be able to tell though.

If it was a 5.56 AR, did it have a Spikes Tactical Buffer??

osama wasn't shot with a 5.56..... chris costa got tired of the shenanegans going on over there and went down himself, smelled the stench of that rag head and tracked him down, shot a single strand of his beard at osamas face and turned it into pudding. :big_boss:

I like this theory.... because there is only one thing that Chuck Norris is afraid of and that is Chris Costa's beard.....
A little off topic but have you seen recent Handguns episodes and Gun Talk episodes with Aaron Roberts and members of the VATA group sporting Costa like beards?
back on topic, I would buy a face shot edition if 50 percent of the procedes went to the Naval Special Warfare Foundation......
They should give those sailors the 27 Million Dollar reward.....
A 1911 in .45 or a Winchester 94 in 30-30 would have been poetic justice.
I'm just glad that somebody got eyes-on & was actually looking at him when they pulled the trigger. Most of us will probably never know who was on that team, but I'll try to remember them whenever I raise a bottle of Yuengling Lager.

No surprise there. I was skeptical of the 7.62 Colt reports initially.
What's up with the vague references to 87 gr. 5.56 ammo over on SS?
All I know is there is a guy in a unit somewhere that will get beer for life when he tells the story, "I Shot him in the FACE, The M*&$% F*&#*&% FACE...."

Some custom made stuff out of Texas supposedly? Maybe some subsonic hp or "otm" rounds?

(In my best Christian Bale impression)
I killed Osama bin Laden... with a 416... to the face.

i remember that...
a bin ladin edition HK would sell like crack in detroit! (that was terrible sorry)
of course while HK has softened their civilian side a little, we still suck, and they still hate us. :o so not gonna happen.

Because a standard M855 round would have just bounced off his head.

Supposedly they won't show the picture because a single 5.56 round took his eye out and blew half his head off. So whatever that round was, it brought the pain.
Greg, did you sell your 416?

All I can say is from what my source is and I'm not going to go into anything else after this . That seal team 1 and 6 are supplied with 6.8spc. ammo for there LMT's they switched to LMT about 5 years ago i'm not saying that they had them with them on this mission but they use them alot cause they get 6.8spc. ammo all the time as well has
.416 barrett alot too.... But who knows as long as he's shark bait it's all good..

"Since the President’s announcement on Sunday, we’ve been flooded with questions about our products and their use by the U.S. Navy SEALs. In particular, there has been significant speculation about the firearm used in the recent operation in Pakistan.
SIG SAUER currently provides firearms for a number of the world’s premier law enforcement and military units. The SIG SAUER P226 is available to U.S. Navy SEAL teams. SIG SAUER, however, is unable to provide information about the firearms used in this specific operation."

That's right, it totally was a Sig. When the operator pulled the trigger the 226 KB'd, sending MIM parts flying everywhere, catapulting the entire slide of the 226 through UBL's head and causing the massive wound the CIC is too afraid to show us.
