Ok, sorry. I guess everyone here gets annoyed with ghetto-internet-elite language. I thought I was "in" and "cool". So I guess no more "fruitcage" and "suitcase" BigTexas: Cool pics.

Fatal Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 ^ Thanks, that was worth it :rollseyes: anyways, how common is the DBAL? I haven't heard much about this so I was just curious. Sorry if this has already been stated. Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't heard much about this so I was just curious. Sorry if this has already been stated. Hi. DBAL and DBAL2 is not issued, the new PEQ is the Insight Technologies PEQ-15. It is to replace the current AN/PEQ-2 and PEQ-4. But there are some pics out there of M4/CQBR's with the DBAL. (Sorry-I'm not applying for thread drama-queen) Link to post Share on other sites
Fatal Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 I understand the the peq-15 is the new gucci kit. But I don't see why anyone would just buy a DBAL so would the pictures of "SEALs in Ramadi" possibly be DEVGRU testing it out? Just curious to find more information about the DBAL and its use(s) Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hispeed, talk like a normal person, that is all. If you're going to try to talk the talk, i.e parroting information you got from mp.net, at least fact check it. Yeesh. The DBAL-A2 is also labeled at the AN/PEQ-15A. It's an alternative to the PEQ-15 (ATPIAL) and was used as more of an intermediate while the ATPIAL fully cleared it's trials. It is issued but has been spotted more in use by base security forces or by other operational units like NSW. I've tried it myself, almost bought one, it's a bit easier to work with in terms of leaving it on a pre-set settings, whereas the PEQ-15 to go fully safe requires turning off the dial, like the 2A.

Me: Squawk! I didn't know there were 2 PEQ-15's. So the DBAL A2 was used a little until the real PEQ-15 came out? Cool. I never saw it on any Crane Block 2 pic presentations. Thanks.

Titleist Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 That's because you need to open up your expectations beyond the buzz word of BLOCK 2. The PEQ-15A is issued, it still gets issued, it's just that the 15 is this new shiny toy. The A2 is in many ways as good, if not better in some aspects. Again the Block 2 stuff is BS, NSW uses whatever they want or need, the A2 offered up programmable functions and controls before the ATPIAL, so many units use and are already trained on it. Again, FDE does not make something better. Link to post Share on other sites

-MOOSE- Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 The guys in Ranger Green are SWCC, right? Nice to see some RRV's in training, although there were some from a couple of weeks back that was also showing the AN/PEQ-15 and stuff like that. I've been watching a show from BUD/S Class 234 I believe and they all used regular M4A1's, M16A1's, and ALICE gear. Its good to see trainees use in early combat training what they would use in combat. And DesertFox, nice CIRAS, I'm lovin' it! hehe Link to post Share on other sites
Fatal Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 Usually in training, units are issued crappy gear that has been replaced. There is no need to put a Circas on a recruit or use in training when it is just going to get torn up. Link to post Share on other sites
Hispeed1 Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 Finally finished my MK 18 Mod 1/CQBR. It has generic replica MK 18 Mod 0/Block 1 accesories. I didn't have my camera, only crappy cel. phone. Will take better pics soon with replica Block 2 stuff. I might leave this black because my M4 SOPMOD Block 2 project is in tan.

-MOOSE- Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 Great stuff! Was it really from the late 90's? I thought it was from the early 2000's, maybe 2002? But I don't know where to check that so whatever. Link to post Share on other sites
