The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I was looking through the USCM technical manual (the 1995 version)
Is there any evidence of Alternate uniforms other than Camo?
To be specific: A Black Ops Stealth Uniform possible (like they sell the Armor of at SpatCave?)
To be even more specific: Black BDU's and Battle Rattle ...

Looks like a TAVOR variant.


As for the original question- no; there is no reference to "Black Ops" USCM gear whatsoever. Not the film, the tech manual, or games.

However that hasn't stopped at least a few of us that have done Black Ops Marines. :wink:

It looks to me like it may have started out as or been heavily "inspired" by the IMI Tavor.

So I wasn't that wide of the mark! :D

Is this how the weapon of the future will look? At the 2012 Eurosatory Exhibition in Paris, Israeli company Versia Military Design unveiled a new concept for a future assault rifle with a Bullpup configuration.
Based on the Israeli Tavor, the new rifle was designed as an independent enterprise. It possesses unique design, ergonomic and material characteristics, and constitutes a declaration of intents for Versia’s perception of future trends in the design of small arms.
The weapon was designed to incorporate components and functions currently available for assault rifles into a compact, futuristic unit.
Its prominent characteristics are a polymer casing intertwined with aluminum components, a 5.56 mm diameter design, and full ergonomic compatibility for left-handed and right-handed users.
The weapon includes four Picatinny rails, retractable integral bipods, multiple grip options, a cheek rest, a telescopic stock, a concealable barrel, and a flash suppresser, and also allows for the attachment of optic, silencing, and launcher measures.
Although there has been a decline in the appeal of Bullpup, and the US still has reservations about this configuration, Versia believes that there is room for development in this unique family of firearms.
The company wants to elevate it to a level that can compete with weapons such as the M16 and SCAR.
