Who would of thought?


The Polish Military has been involved in 63 wars between 972 and 1939. Recent peacekeeping operations involve over 4500 troops deployed internationally including Iraq and Afghanistan. Poland’s Special Ops Unit known as GROM operates in highly proficient and cohesive four-person teams. Women are also present in GROM, but due to security reasons, their functions are unknown (although it is believed they are routinely involved in intelligence gathering and stakeouts). All members of a team are fully trained as combat assault personnel. Weapons include the HK MP-5 9mm submachine gun family and the indigenous Tantal 5.45mm assault rifle (a Polish-produced AKS-74U) as well as the newer Beryl .223 assault rifle. Personal sidearm selection is left up to the individual. Snipers are equipped with either the HK PSG-1 or Mauser 86 7.62mm rifles. In some cases the RPG-76 Komar grenade launcher is carried. GROM has been operating quietly with US forces in the war against terrorism. Commandos from GROM were sent to Afghanistan to aid in the search for Taliban and terrorist soldiers.












So how come no one mentioned this little beauty; Polish 9mm FB PM-98 (Glauberyt) submachine gun with Picatinny rail and B&T silencer
