Posing, with weapons
I have noticed that no matter where I go, and which army I encounter - everyone wants to check out each others weapons. And once they get ahold of it - they want a photo...
This Jock offered to trade his rifle for mine, on the spot. His was much heavier. He wasn't even fazed when I told him that ours jammed more frequently than theirs.
These Iraqi Army 14th Division mechanics were enjoying themselves quite a bit.
Er, I may have actually done this m'self, way back when, to be fair about it.

Been there; done that. I have an old photo of me with an M-3 Grease Gun.
Somebody else's weapon is always more exotic than one's own issue weapon, and therefore cooler.
Or lighter.
