What bothers me is that little thing called an "aimpoint" mounted atop that M16/AR15. Here he is looking strong and invincible, and the very device used to aim his rifle IS ON BACKWARDS!! He probably isn't to blame for this (it's most likely his armorer's responsibility) but it means that this man is carrying a rifle which has probably never been sighted in. Heaven help him (and the people around him) if he ever has to use it.
Leave guns to the "professionals". . . I think NOT!
