The Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) had their 76th anniversary last month. At a show they put on celebrating the anniversary their special forces group, PASKAL, had their weapons on display. I was quite surprised to see a XM-8 and MP5 with grenade launcher!

Many thanks to Malaysia reader Faisal who kindly obtained permission from the photographer, ikansadinmknorang [at] panggilanpertiwi [dot] forumotion.net, for me to post these photos.
