Would explain his use of .223 and .308 rounds. My father, who helped design
the USMC M40A1 rifle in 1966 (he mustered out in '69), much preferred the
heavier 7.62X51 (.308) over the .223. Anyway, both are current NATO issue.
To be honest, if the guy is certified "gung-ho", then he's probably using
variants of this rifle:

The rifle in the B&W photo is a personal build by my dad.

There's also been speculation that he's a deserter from the French army who
went AWOL a few weeks ago while on assignment in the US. The French
authorities reported him to Interpol, who in turn reported him to the US.
Apparently this guy is a crack rifleman.
