Seal Team 6, Red Team, 86'd Osama with an HK 416.

The above link has it on good authority (or is it 3rd hand gossip?) that Osama Bin Laden
was killed with German engineering - an HK 416.

We'll probably never know the name of the man who shot OBL, but I wonder if his weapon
will ever make it to a museum?

Those HKs are some sweet engineering. Still, it would have been nice to have Bin Laden go down by Colt, or another American manufacturer. I guess dead is dead though. Can't blame the Seals, if I got to pick my weapon, the HK 416 would be right near the top!

I need to read these titles more careful. It's that Obama/Osama mix-up again. :lol:

Seal team six doesn't exist guys. Obviously the story isn't true.

I guess Disney is going to be ticked off when they find about it.

You're right; Osama was obviously gored to death by Obama's unicorn (the same one that farts hundred-dollar bills for the Federal Reserve).
