Rhino...

He didn't look very round there though...

That picture can't be Permal though... he's not wearing his 'The Bay' tag, and he never takes that thing off.

guess the forces who follow Qaddafi are allowed to purchase their own weapons.

Libya: Purchased 367 F2000 rifles along with other assorted lethal and non-lethal weapon systems from FN Herstal in 2008, and deliveries commenced in 2009.[17] In the 2011 Libyan Civil War, Libyan rebel forces captured a number of these weapons from forces loyal to the Gaddafi regime

Good to know for me, I bought a great shape '99 Toyota 4Runner last month!

During the Rwandan civil war Belgian peacekeepers stopped a shipment of guns from coming in and lo and behold it was FN Herstal who supplied them.

looking at this you got to admit, these guys can be pretty creative with a workshop full of tools. If I was in need of some metalwork, I would definitely ask these guys.

We didn't see any in those pics but in video footage on TV, I saw a shitload of G36 taken from "loyal forces"... They sure had diversity in their weaponry.
