    Junud al-sham or his subunit seems to have money. In Kabani's picture he has a thermal scope costing several thousand dollars and here an M16A4. With Junud al-Sham only to be believed to be around 50 fighters they seem to have problady quite some outside support.

    Two snipers during training. The first uses an M24 SWS which they captured from ANSF. The second has a Russian SVD. The SVD is more common but the M24 is also used quite often. However, their most capable sniper/DMR is an M16A4 with COTS Therml/NV optics.
