Basically this, unironically. In previous generations they just had chromed bayonets and white slings on parade, but the SA80 is a little too geometric so they have a padded cover to smooth out the lines and ensure the user doesn't have a gas block or scope dial digging into their skin for hours at a time.
The rifle is very fragile. It's a sock to keep all the bits together.

Colour sergeant stands a man to the right of the parade and is the 'right marker' and gives orders from there and when on parade is the bloke to make sure they all are in line.
They should use customized ceremonial Lee Enfields for this.
Maybe chrome the bolts and bayonets, and hand stain and oil the stocks with Black Walnut.
It would look really really nice.
An example here is some Romanian furniture I did for my brother for a Christmas gift.
Probably a legally adopted one since he's not actually scottish in any shape or form. They are for distinct family lines after all, so it just means you're probably part of a huge clan that adopted the Royals.
The bong royals get their claim to the throne by being descendents of the House of Stuart. They spend quite considerable amounts of their lives in Scotland, often schooled there etc. They are better described as purely 'British' than any of the more specific national identities, but there is a strong Scottish connection.
Why he wear my tartan? Am I related?
Stewart clan is distantly related to the House of Stuart. So maybe yes. For regal occasions royals wear the red 'Royal Stewart', although mostly the King (& Queen before him) are seen wearing the 'Hunting Stewart'
Are these bayonets sharp or dull? I'm pretty sure the guns are empty in these parades, but aren't they afraid one soldier might take a lunge at the king with his bayonet in a lucid moment?
I mean, they take all other kinds of precautions, like evacuating adjacent buildings, placing snipers on rooftops etc. But then their VIP reviews his troops with dozens of sharp objects pointing at him an arm's length away from his face.
Like, if I wanted the king dead, it would be as easy as bribing or threatening one of his soldiers.
>but aren't they afraid one soldier might take a lunge at the king with his bayonet in a lucid moment?
the call 'em Gaurds for a reason anon
Officers of the Queens Royal Hussars, for example, are not required to toast to the sovereigns health and ignore the national anthem when it is played because they are so famously loyal to the Crown that such demonstrations of loyalty have been declared unnecessary by Royal decree
It's so ugly it has to cover it's face in front of royalty.

Fuck off vatniks
Fuck you, I'm a British vet. The SA80 is shit.
>I'm a British vet.
Ok poonji.
just because you're a horse doctor or whatever doesn't make you an authority on guns
rent free
>acknowledging that the L85/SA80 is an actual piece of shit makes you a shill
I think this is unironically the reason-they should cut their losses and give everyone HK416's
Shouldn't you street shitting pajeets be too busy celebrating your moon landing ?
Schizobrit
>Absolutely everything glorious Bongland does is beyond reproach or criticism
Brown hands typed this.
Anon we're just making silly jokes about the gun's covering
Oh don't worry they will.
it gets chilly up there, dont want your gun to catch a cold, would you?
>sweater
It's the gun's kilt you enormous gay
shouldn't they be lined up by height? why did they put the manlet right next to the massive guy?
banter m8
they're bongs
They are lined by height. The shirt guy at the front is just a sergeant leading those guys.

It's a portable garbage bag for the rifle, because the rifle is trash
It also is a burka, nude rifle can't be seen in public. You know, now that England is ruled by poos and sharia law is in effect
Modern guard regiments must revive their sovl and rvtvrn to SMLE's for parade.
That isn't a guard regiment.
I disagree though, as long as the guards are actual soldiers they should carry whatever their service rifle is.
They should use customized ceremonial Lee Enfields for this.
Maybe chrome the bolts and bayonets, and hand stain and oil the stocks with Black Walnut.

That does look really nice, I'm sure he'll love it.
>Maybe chrome the bolts and bayonets
Ewe, no. Blued.
Blued steel in Black Walnut is the most sex look ever created by man.
it's European and uncut. That's how natural rifles look like.
emergency tea cozy, standard kit for brits
Literally no one knows. It's just weird british shit.

Doesn't matter they'll amalgamate you together anyway

Its not a special bayonet, it's their standard issue one. So might be sharp.
This is the country were it's nuclear deterrent is launched by simply hitting a button, with no further codes or authorisation. Discipline I suppose.

mmmmm roast piggies
Do you know why Scots wear kilts?
>because a good highland sheep can hear a zipper from 100 yards away
which is why we have dogs round them up smart guy
A threadly reminder of what could have been.
I'm more concerned with the fact that they're all wearing dresses. Is this the 14th chud Battalion or something?
to keep it cozy :3
So it stays warm in the cold weather, are you some kind of monster that likes watching things freeze?
>Alright chaps! chins up, skirts up higher!
