FN MINIMI, baby. One of the greatest bangers out there! Super fun but man you gotta hold on to that bad larry!
Not sure who was the genius who called it the minimi lol.

Minimi is the short version of "Mini-Mitrailleuse" aka Mini Machine gun.
But yes, the coincidence is quite interesting.

lots of them are central Asians in origin
the majority came with the Turks around the 16th century and setteled in Tunisia, we still call them Chinwa/ Chniwasi (Chinese) or Japouni (Japanese), although they have nothing to do with either of them and they all carry Arab/Tunisian names and family names

and nice remark
it seems our lads are in love with modifying anything their hands can reach
you can see the pattern everywhere

I did not know that. Fascinating. I think it's great when a culture of people has such a mixed heritage that lives perfectly fine with one another. The epitome of blessed and harmonium assimilation.

But yes, the coincidence is quite interesting.

That one looks very close to the 7.62 Mk3 Minimi with the newer style butt-stock and the cheek guard. The only thing he's not using is the forward grip, but he did add that nice scope to it.

We are going for 4 OPV 1400 then?
2 More at the end of the Year it seems.

"Le patrouilleur de haute-mer « Syphax 611 » fait partie d’une commande passée depuis 2016 à la Société néerlandaise « DAMEN » pour l’acquisition de quatre navires du même type. « Un premier navire a déjà été livré. Les deux autres seront livrés fin 2018 » a indiqué le ministre de la Défense, Abdelkerim Zbidi à l'agence Tap."

and

"En 2017, l’armée nationale a également pris réception de 200 camions (de moyen tonnage) de transport de militaires et 200 autres de gros tonnage en plus de 30 véhicules militaires blindés et anti-mines, a-t-il ajouté."

Those 30 pcs seems to be Ejder ones...

 

[fachfouch]

yeah but the question the 30 ones are delivered or not because I know they bought alot more than that maybe they're talking about other types maybe more kirpi .

btw these old ones are kicking *** they're everywhere in sea rescuing, mnt chaambi, fire fighting they're heavily depending on them

Unless it's an optical illusion from the photo taken from film, they look a bit more compact than the typical M4 but in fact resemble it. Don't you guys use the HK416 too? And also one of the Turkish copies of the M4?

Never saw Hk416 in TN hands, but maybe.
As for the Pic, it's an M4. You have the typical Triangular front sight instead of the HK416 retractable one.

So what's the latest on these fellas in that attack on the Algerian border? Tough break but I suspect there will be an all-out manhunt on those cretins, if it hasn't already started.

 

[fachfouch]

very heavy casualty ... yes a very large units of army and national guard started the manhunt with 2 helicopters .

I read the count was 8 NG members martyred, is that accurate? That just sucks as we know all about that on our end. We've suffered heavy heavy casualties in this cretin ambushes. They also said the cretins made off with some equipment. Hope they get hunted down like the vermin they are. Mal3oun abuhom w'lad el kalb el sharameet.
