They are on active duty but doing a parade. I don't think they need Diemaco C7 to shoot at the people!!! And they are not doing reenactment but what kind of uniformes are they wearing? It's for the "show" and nice rifle are part of this!

Actually it is quite possible my dad is on the 2nd or 4th Picture, as he's from the Korps Nationale Reserve SW Brabant..

Doesn't whole Europe share a history, we've been in war with eachother since... well let's say we've been archiving our wars with eachother since the Roman times

Glim your pictures refuse to show up

Too bad I didn't see myself in the pictures. I'm still having a hard time finding photographs of myself. Anyways I do agree with the fact that Diemaco rifles look a bit awkward with these uniforms. The FN FAL indeed looks better but is so damn heavy, imagine standing in line while presenting arms for about 20 minutes...

Brrrr.!

I vote for No 4. Enfields or M1 Garands as parade rifles

Well, i stood there holding a FAL for several hours a few years ago, believe me you're better off with a diemaco. Btw the year before that, my group were issued lee enfields, also way to heavy. One girl fainted....

I served back in '92 and the standard weapon FN Fal was about 6kg, it was not bad to carry at all, the mag however with 10kg was another ballgame, especially with the speedmars

Nice pics!
