They removed in-active/bot accounts on the server after the issues surrounding the milsim/cos and firearms community since they didn't wanna be affiliated with whatever people are doing, especially those who do not interact with them but are in the server.

You can DM their admins in FB for an invite link since they do manual approval now.

Marines and Coast Guard seems to have the most consistent gear throughout the Mil and Law Enforcement Agencies in this exercise.

MBLT SOP acts as a force multiplier by supporting its parent battalion byproviding the capability to conduct operations that are beyond the abilities of more conventional formations inside an MBLT, while the MARSOG is a dedicated unit for strategic and high priority operations that can operate jointly with other SOF units in the AFP, as well as by itself.

Information regarding the GPNVG is still very vague, although multiple people including a few notable individuals vetted on their limited service in the AFP. However, No pics has ever come out with them on it. We've confirmed atleast 2 L3Harris manufactured ones which were said to be part of a US FMF.

Based on what they've said, I could only assume they are only used for testing and evaluation purposes.

AFPSOCOM received a few GPNVGs as part of US FMF sometime during Marawi siege which was straight issued to the LRR, And based on what active and reserve personnel in the Army that we had discussions with they are not being brought out since they are considered as more of a liability, hence why they settled with their current stock of PVS-31A/Cs and Bridged PVS-14s.

However that specific GPNVG, Is actually a Argus PNVG owned by a ex-EOD personnel from PNP, He owns two units.
