That's because the C79 is rubbish. The guys on the Hill don't use rubbish. It will not hold zero under any type of abuse.

P.S. I realize that most of their members are ex JTF, Groupement tactique and special regiments operators but then again it is still a different organization.

Yes except those pictures were posted in Newspapers and were ID'd as JTF2.

Back also in 1996 JTF2 was sent to Haiti to advise the security forces of President Rene Preval on methods to repel the revolutionary army, train local SWAT teams and raid weapons smugglers in Port au Prince.

JTF2 was also in Haiti in 2004 protecting the Canadian Embassy when the Haitian President was ousted from office. These were the pictures posted in newspapers.

Seems like JTF2 enjoy vacationing to Haiti

That's pretty much the only way one can spend a "vacation" in Haiti: Armed to the teeth.

Yes you are perfectly right. I am not arguing whit you on that.

I just added a point that not all of the pictures that we see all over the place are of JTF members even if they may look like it. Many other not well known Canadian based organizations also exist.

If you see a guy in middle east wearing a tan suit whit a Canadian flag, it does not absolutely mean he is JTF...

Most confirmed JTF2 pictures have them wearing no flags at all

[Capt.Flan]

You got my point!

Awesome, I'm jealous at the patch! I want to do something like this someday I just don't got the cash to support my hobby at the moment.

maybe next time you should add a pair of greaves/leg armor for your next shoot. JTF2 assaulters love'em.

Check out the legs....



BTW notice no patches in the pics. although they do sport them whenever they got to babysit. Probably for the same reason why Americans wear Canadian patches on their luggage.

on the last pic, what kind of vest are they using?

[Lerch]

One looks like a modded British assault vest...the other one, God knows.

In the picture with the four guys in navy blue at my grandmas apartment, what gun is the guy on the far right holding?

It looks like one sexy mp5 with the slim style foregrip....*drool*....

[rc_p120]

What do JTF-2 troops wear on their legs/shins??







Could it be kevlar leg armour?? It looks like big shin guards with saddle bag style pouches on the outer sides... Maybe pistol holsters or knife sheaths??

[cetane]

probably so they dont damage there knees, leg injuries are bad in the field, and they usually have to walk long distances, looks like baseball catcher leg pads with a drop leg pouch wrapped around it without connection to belt

[sid_vicious]

recent photos, not necessary JTF. just a regular sunday game. merry christmas everyone!
