Found this article on the Fox News website and it mentions the Larue OBR is one item on their "must have" list.

The whole SEAL trend crap in the media is a bit much.

They can lay off already, the amount of BS floating around lately is just ridiculous. Next thing they're gonna be making a new CSI and it'll be all about SEALs.

Did you know every SEAL is 6'9 and 260lbs and can run the 100 yard dash in 2 seconds flat while ****ing a thai hooker and rucking 300lbs all while killing everyone who see's this amazing achievement, that's why nobody has ever seen it done. Any one who has witnessed it is now dead.

I know for a fact that some SEALs are buying PredatARs.

I'm assuming you mean for use in theater, not just for personal use. I have questions:

Why isn't LaRue using this as a sales pitch? (They aren't above this, IMHO.)

How do you know? (Just curious, not calling you out.)

If groups are buying them, does that mean they have an NSN, or are standard issue, or anything?

It's always been this way.

How many films have been made about SEAL's, Snipers, Delta and SF? Plenty, and 99% of them were rooted in pure fantasy.

Personally, I want to see a film about the geeky, APFT failing supply specialist. Without him loading crates and being harassed by an NCOIC all day, Elite forces would starve in the field and no have bullets.
