As others have pointed out, those are LWRC rifles. I'm 100% sure of that since the shop I work at sells LWRCs and I look at them every day. The have a very distinct proprietary lengthened upper receiver that mates directly to a proprietary handguard. I'm guessing those are their 10.5" barrel M6-IC SBRs (or maybe a full-auto version of that model), but I have a hard time guessing barrel length from pictures.bearcreek said:Maybe somebody could chime in with the exact brand of rifle and it's furniture if anybody cared.
The C8.
Handguards and stocks can get replaced pretty easily.

The furniture on those rifles are Magpul CTR stocks and Magpul AFG2 angled foregrips. If you look closely, you can also see that the rifles have LAW Tactical side-folding buffer tubes installed. The silencers are definitely made by Surefire, but I can't tell which generation they are. The flashlights are probably Surefire Scout weapon lights due to the distinctive tape switch adapter, but it's hard to tell for sure.
That's a bummer. Our county sheriff's dept. doesn't issue anything. Each deputy buys their own sidearm and rifle or shotgun. It's interesting seeing what some of them choose.got a few buddies on local pd and they had hi points for many years and now outdated AR's. we are poor around here.
I know some can buy their own AR at least that's the way it was a few years back. what county you in?That's a bummer. Our county sheriff's dept. doesn't issue anything. Each deputy buys their own sidearm and rifle or shotgun. It's interesting seeing what some of them choose.
Some of the comments here are mystifying, ridiculous chest thumping, "we're the best" crap. To say that the ability to possess certain guns is what makes the US "the best" is beyond belief. This is a gun hobbyist website, tens of millions in this country would disagree that guns are what makes it great.
A recent Forbe's poll of the happiest countries in the world, we weren't even in the top ten, but all the Scandinavian countries were. Maybe people figure almost free universal health care and free higher education are more important than having a certain gun. I certainly do, and I served time in the military, was a law enforcement officer for forty years, and have always been a shooter. Believe it or not, there are countries I've traveled to that do not have corrupt politicians, have an overall higher standard of living, and a better educated population. Guns are great, but they don't make up for those things in determining which country is the best. We've got a wonderful country here, but it could be better.
Criticizing a non native speaker for punctuation, please, that's just embarrassing. I've seen much worse from native speakers right here on this site and I doubt very many here could do any better in any foreign language.
If this thread has come down to this, it's time to close it. I've gotten the answers to the questions I originally asked.

No one ever said that gun ownership is the only thing that makes America what it is, but it's a big part of it. It's our constitution that makes us great, and the second amendment is arguably the most important aspect of that document. Historically speaking, only slaves lacked the right to own weapons.
Furthermore, let's see how happy those countries are when the gravy train runs out of steam and they no longer have "free" healthcare. You've also been misled about higher education being free over there. First of all, you have to have the government's permission to go to college, then you have to take out student loans if your parents can't afford to pay for it. It's pretty much the same system as we have here, except not everyone has the opportunity to go. For example, take a single mother who dropped out of high school and now wants to get a degree. Here in the US it happens all the time. Not over there. And this is to say nothing about all the people who die on waiting lists due to healthcare rationing in socialist countries. I wonder how happy they are?
Or maybe we could talk about all the people who were forced into early retirement, their pensions cut in half? I know such people. One guy I know was an electrician his whole life, and was forced into early retirement about ten years shy. They literally cut his pension in half, despite the fact that he had been paying into it his entire adult life. They basically took his job and half his pension and gave it to a younger person, and his employer had no say in this (yea, that's right, the government decides who gets the job, not the employer). Where I come from that's called tyranny.
Speaking of tyranny, what do you call it when politicians bring in a hostile foreign element against the will of their own people, then take away said people's right to defend themselves? What we witnessed there the other day was a government murdering its own citizens. All over Western Europe there are rapes, beatings, and murders happening on a daily basis, and these poor people aren't allowed so much as a pea shooter to protect themselves. What the hell do you call that? I would call it corruption, my friend, and so would anyone else with half their wits left.
You're also disrespecting the people who took the time out of their day to come answer your little question. Do you think we work for you and you can sit there and dictate to us what we can and can't discuss? We answered your question definitively within the first few posts. You got what you came for so have a little respect for the people who were kind enough to answer your question.
And that non native speaker to whom you're referring had it coming to him. How do you think a French Canadian would like it if I sat there belittling his country while informing him in my terrible French that I spoke "real French?" He would probably get pretty pissed off, don't ya think?
