Private Iraqi Security Contractors - Part 3 of 6

[TRapsGoldenchild]

Is a BMW and Benz available to the average Iraqi consumer?

[PSCreativeGaming]

@mrekbass ud be suprised at how many iraqis by armored cars that are usaually 100,000$+

[Skidracer21]

@Faultline54 it usually is ex-SAS guys who do the low-profile runs.

[LASuper38]

fucking mercenaries deserve to die. PMC catchy term

[Skidracer21]

@LASuper38 Why? They're just dudes doing a job same as anyone else. And the Insurgents are also performing terrorist acts for money.

[mrekbass]

How the fuck could anyone consider 3 new Mercedes as "low profile." In Iraq I imagine the only people that could afford these newer models would have to be associated with the government or military. I say go full out always!!

[Skidracer21]

@mrekbass yeah, but it's usually the high-profile guys who get ambushed the most often. at least with a Mercedes (and these models aren't the latest and greatest, by the way), you blend in for at least a few seconds, long enough to get you past one hazard and onto the next.

[wumbovii]

Burn the insurgent, Exterminate the extremist, and Purge Islamic threat

[acidfriend47]

Wow what kinda low profile is that with a mercedes and BMW lol not even i drive that.

[viktorj85]

So 2 years after this video aired, how is it now?

Safer?.... more dangerous?

[carlosthepwner2]

They should grow beards.

[skippy0033]

Beards are for Afghanistan most Iraqis dont really grow beards

[carlosthepwner2]

@skippy0033 tru that, i watched the one private security videos from afghan before this one.

[sicma6gg6ot6]

@skippy0033 an m21 is a m14 its just a updated version and has more rails and can have a tac stock

[viva0las0vegas]

it is bad ass that they have their own gunsmith

[viva0las0vegas]

you will notice that the low profile security guy they talked to was using an m-21. that's an m-14 kids.

[Donnerstag88]

@viva0las0vegas

Did you watch the video?

He shows his M21, it's a Serbian AK-type rifle from Zastava.

[viva0las0vegas]

@viva0las0vegas

He shows his M21, it's a Serbian AK-type rifle from Zastava

They call it an m-21, and the mags look bigger than an ak-type round. You can do a lot to an m-14 to make it more useable

[John234pwns]

It isn't an M14 though. The magazines are definitely AK-pattern, and you can clearly see the rifle is an AK variant at 3:44.

[zextreme47]

@John234pwns its a M21 zastava not the M14 relative (the narrator says M21) chambered in 5.56 I believe.

[sicma6gg6ot6]

@John234pwns an m21 is an updated m14 just smaller and has a compact stock

[knsupe]

There is a video game about this its called army of two

[Madmongul]

My dad does this stuff, he was a former cop.

[michalpraca]

this guys are former soliders as SAS , US Rangers , navy seals , polish GROM . So they know what to do and carry with them to mission !!

[nixonba]

death to radical muslim assholes..Bosnia 1992:)

[lb2916]

My AK cost $100 an M4 (you don't want full size rifles, you can't wield them well in vehicles, etc...) Cost $3,000 when I was there. We bought our own weapons, they are not issued. Other than the obvious that was mentioned in other post the folks with M4's had a hard time getting 556 ammo as it is not being sold to the public since US and NATO forces use it. 762 comes easy to non-_4 military. We used to trade arms woth the US Spec Ops guys and the biggest trade was our 762 for their 556.

[Mojo50000]

they use ak-47s cause they are powerful and they're reliable if dust or dirt gets into the gun its still able to work well

[bruinsrok]

AK-47 and its other variants use a bigger round (7.62) than than the 5.56 that the AR-15 versions use.

[Riever86]

The original AK did - since the 70s it (or, strictly speaking, the AK-74) has used a 5.-mm round, similar to the 5.56 NATO

[Dingusmaster792]

why do most of the contractors use AK-47 or some variants instead of the AR-15 which is a better rifle?

[KaptajnKaffe]

its because the insurgents also use the ak, they can always pick up more ammo if they are in need.

and its also about personal taste of the individual person, and if the contract firm can deliver the weapons you want, as you know modern weapons and equipment isn't exactly cheap

[turdferguson9725]

Ammo availability, and the high profile PSD guys often carry more than a dozen mags, and they will shoot all of them if they are ambushed, AKs will run reliably shooting that many rounds within a short time, ARs quite often will not. Also, an AR chamber can get hot enough from that to get a cook off.

[thewhiteHOBO]

they should make a videogame or movie about this.

[Neverstop302]

@thewhiteHOBO i was thinking the same thing

[Malloc2]

DEATH TO ISLAM

[EmpaGG]

DEATH TO HATE

[IvanSorath]

Hell yeah

[dareapa1]

@Malloc2 death to al queda and taliban who believe that islam gives them a right to kill, but let those who believe in it practice it

[TechnoBobCat]

as quoted from the game army of two 'as long as men make wars were gonna keep making money'

i also believe that this is a great way for ex soldiers to use there skills in another more safe way

[durca2]

dude quit hating on these guys they could say ur life one day.

[HarjasKaur]

These guys are the ones who will take it. They only defend the rights of the rich. There's no patriotism here whatsoever. This is the military of dictators.

[durca2]

i just think your bias against war and probably are a Muslim and hate americans

[durca2]

i think your just bias against the war and probably a muslim that hates americans

[Cullyn42]

Exactly. We already use private contractors to supply and even repair some of our essential combat systems, particularly in the Airforce and Navy. Now we have private contractors doing the work the army doesn't have the time for in Iraq, when does it stop? This is extremely unsettling.

[cinepie]

I Never have problems asking directions...must be there attitudes.

[obliviouspet]

Fking murderers. What pieces of shit. Why are they there in the 1st place?? Can't believe so many of you brainwashed turds cheer on this, but don't have the balls to go there and kill innocent people yourselves. I hope they fuk you every chance they get.

[uuuultra]

DEATH TO ISLAM!

[mikeandthemillionair]

Grow a fucken brain you dickhead, How can you condem a whole race or religion, Idiots like you are responsible for the world affairs we face today. By the way I am not a muslim I am just educated

[ogamike]

Hey can I buy this vid at the national Geographic website?

[hedaredandwon]
