Is that a FAMAS?

What is wrong with GIGN? If it's not their antiquated revolvers it's their ridiculous helmets. Why can't they just be a normal elite tactical unit?

      Just don’t wear the visor like basically 95% of all other special tactics police units.

                >their antiquated revolvers
                The GIGN's revolver was specifically selected for it's longevity.
                The GIGN have a rule that they have to shoot their service pistol every single day they are working.
                The Manurhin MR73 was selected because it's high quality and high durabiity.
                What other SF / Counter-terror unit have to shoot their guns every single fricking day? Answer : none.

                GIGN has pretty high requirements, of their officers and their equipment.
                There's a reason for their reputation.

                Also, the French Police / GIGN forces have access to more modern guns than the ones this thread tries to portray.

                Here's a list of guns they can rock

                Handguns :
                -Glock 17
                -Glock 26
                -Glock 18
                -Smith & Wesson 340PD

                Submachine guns
                -HK MP5
                -FN Herstal P90

                Assault Rifles
                -HK 416
                -HK G36
                -Sig Sauer 551
                -SCAR L

                "Support Weapons"
                -SAIGA 12
                -MOLOT VEPR
                -Benelli M4 Super 90
                -Kel-Tec KSG

                Machine Guns:
                -FN Minimi

                Precision Rifles :
                -HG G36 KV (Sniper)
                -HK 417
                -SCAR H
                -PGM Ultima Ratio
                -Sako TRG 42
                -PGM Hecate II

                There a full list.
                Source (in french) : https://web.archive.org/web/20210612210332/http://le.raid.free.fr/armement.htm
                It's about the French Police (RAID) less well known but essentially does the same job .

                (GIGN is "Gendarmerie" which is Military personel doing (remote) Police work. RAID is the actual Police Anti-Terror unit.)

                What is the Bataclan Terror attack?
                The Mohamed Merrah Attacks?
                Or the Marigniane Airport Assault / Flight operation?
                Charlie Hebdo terror attack?
                Hypercacher kosher supermarket siege?

                When you don't know shit about a subject, you should certainly shut the frick up, or at the very least do a basic google search you massive muppet

                This is a little selection of notable terror attacks on french soil.
                I could pull a really long list of terror attacks the French forces have dealt with in the last 10 years.

                Stupid ignorant motherfrickers should sometimes just shut up.

                Equally cringe, French special forces are India tier garbage. Infact did anyone see the video where they were all lined up looking into a shop and they open up and nearly all shoot each other.

                Really really unprofessional to be honest.

        That visor is common. My department also uses similar visors that clamp onto our existing helmets for special circumstances where explosives or dangerous chemicals are to be potentially expected.

        the one context where a ballistic visor, extra armor coverage and frag suits is 100% practical is counter terrorism.

      Neither French nor German elite tactical units have actually seen any action beyond kicking down some biker gang members' doors in the middle of the night in many, many years.
      It's fairly common for any fighting unit that doesn't see real combat to have their doctrine and equipment slowly mutate towards the moronic.

        The use of shields and protective gear sure helped during the Bataclan attack. Your ideal of a high speed low drag for all ops operator would have been swiss cheese.

              SOP for shield users, sweetie. Because reloading takes two hands and one hand is on the shield.

        What do think these police units are there for? The frenchies are GIGN, a military unit doing police and ct-stuff, and the germans are either SEK or GSG9, both are literally police units.

        The GIGN intervenes more than 200 times per year in France alone.
        They conducted the most crazy hostage rescue of all times in 1994 to save the passengers of Air France flight 8969.
        They pioneered so many things like simultaneous sniper fire or fast roping from helicopters you're most probably in awe at some operators tricks and pro moves that emanated from the brain of GIGN founder Christian Prouteau in the 70s.
        Why are there so many idiots like this on /k/?

    That stock is designed for combat in small corridor and in city, the fact that they never had to bend their head or body to keep eye focus on target, this stock is very effective for the type of mission where you have no space and minimal space requirement. They can constantly be head straight and aim without moving
