All of the FSK operators' uniforms and gear is correct. They all wear the same uniforms and gear as the real FSK. And also carry the same weapons. The standard rifle of the norwegian military is the HK416, but the FSK carry the Diemaco C8 SFW, as they do in this show. The standard pistol in the norwegian military is the Glock 17, but the FSK carry the HK USP, as they do in this show. Adella, their translator, carries the HK416 as she is not an FSK operator, she is with the military intelligence service.
