Yeah, Irish Army uses their own version of DPM, it's a little bit more of a central european pattern with the large splotches.
The uniform cut itself is alot like British CS95 except rank slides are replaced by velcro and there's a strip of velcro for a name tape.
You'll notice however that alot of Irish soldiers still wear British kit, such as windproof smocks and chest rigs.

The rifle, as stated earlier, is the Steyr F88 (not the AUG or STG77).
