M1956 used in Afghanistan?!

Definitely looks legit after seeing the original sources of the photo. This is crazy - the 56 pouches though. I've see some old things in use before but this is a first, for sure. Very nice to see.

The M14 looks full auto and the terrain looks like Afghanistan, but all of his gear is aftermarket and he would be wearing at least SOME issued equipment (SFLCS kit, helmet, night vision, IR laser, radio, etc.) Most likely this is a posed photo either of a guy in the US with his own stuff or maybe someone in Afghanistan with privately purchased gear (not SF or regular Army out on a patrol). If it is legit and he does walk around like that, that's pretty cool.

If you look carefully, you will notice that he is wearing M1956 H-harness too. :thumbsup:
