User blog comment:NoTreble/SAS vs MARSOC/@comment-5790624-20120423062057

Correction: The L9A1 has not been used the SAS in several years, they do however use the Sig Sauer P226.

The SAS take this one easily, they are some the best trained special forces operators on the planet and are a match to SEALs, not MARSOC, they endure a 72-week training cource and never ending training, aswell endless hours of training before an operation, repeating the scenario over and over and over until it is drilled into their heads, the SAS are put through one of the most brutal training cources known as SERE, meaning they are the best for a reason, MARSOC bring better guns, true, but it matters a hell of alot more though firing the guns and how he's been trained.

MARSOC pack good training, that is true, but the SAS are known as the best, the ones the UK will turn too in a desperate times, would America turn to SEALs or MARSOC in desperate times, the SAS are trained to be the best and to be inserted in to deal hevay damage, from raiding Hitler's airfields in World War 2, through too hunting the IRA's top, to rescuing thousands of Bulgarian civilians, to hunting for high-ranking Al-Queada members and Bin Laden in Afghanistan with Delta and the SEALs to Libya only just last year, these guys are given the s*** for a reason, because they can beat it and do it better.

Edge: SAS
