I think it really depends on the mission. While it wouldn't be used for a beach scan mission, a beach landing mission could be the begining of a direct action raid or deep reconaissance. It really depends on the circumstances though, and what's at stake.

I've noticed that the only difference between them (besides caliber - and that's unnoticable at minifig scale) is their length. Despite being longer by 3.8cm, really a minifig-scale Mk48 could be considered a M249 SAW.

I like that! In addition, the Infantryman could be depicted as a Caucasian (yellow minifig head) and the Gunner fig Afro-American (brown minifig head)

The MP7 is more of a self-defense weapon, so I prefer Navy SEALs armed with MP5s too.

Bodyguards/Security Forces would use the MP5/M4 Carbine. The MP7 seems more suited for a driver/pilot, IMHO.

I would like to see some modern minifigs to compliment the already offered Bandits, and to balance modern and WWII themes. But with so many variations of modern troops, there are endless possibilities. I think a standard Army grunt would suffice, but until there is a decent PASGAT helmet, I don't know what would be used. Weapons could include an M4, an M1911 (or Desert Eagle if produced), and perhaps a grenade or two. There could even be variations, such as a support gunner with an MK48. No matter what happens, I would love to see some modern troops produced.

I am actually nearly done making a Delta Force squad (four men, including Paul Howe), armed with: 2 M4s, 2, MP5s, 3 M23s, and a shotgun (Paul Howe, as in reality, is equipped with one of the carbines which will have a cut down pump shotgun underneath), and a frag grenade for each. They all have some type of Dino Force body, black pants, and sharpied black TLC Skateboard helmets (because in the Mogadishu conflict, they wore lightweight, cut-down hockey helmets), and all the faces have headsets (once again, read Black Hawk Down.) Right now all I need to do before I post pictures is to the modding on Paul Howe's carbine, attaching the cut-down shotgun underneath. Unrelated, but I also made to Black Panthers.

I agree entirely. What good is an M4 is theres no man in camo to man it? Helmets might end up being a problem though, and packs too. However its hard to have a good time with Banditos (terrorists, if you will) when there is no counter-force.

I've decided to bump this thread, because I am such a fan of this suggestion. So let's go on with more discussion.

Okay. :)

If a BrickArms Navy SEAL minifig is made, what weapons would you all like to see included with it? It seems that there are quite a lot of choices:

- MP5
- M4
- MK48
- M23
- M23 SOCOM
- KA-BAR

Of course, we'll have to pick and choose, seeing as minifigs usually aren't armed with six weapons at once. ;)

*Disclaimer that none of the above is currently being developed by Will*

If a seal went into production you guys should let everyone chose what weapon you want with it. Just my idea.
