Default 1500 yard sniper shot VERY VERY GRAPHIC


DAMM THATS NASTY I HOPE THIS WAR IS OVER BEFORE MY SON IS OLD ENOUGH TO GO. THE SOURCE OF THIS IS UNKNOWN TO ME AND THIS MAY BE FAKE.


Right Between The eyes At 1500 yards, that's damn near a mile away.

[This is a highly trained American sniper with his 50 caliber rifle which is his best friend. His assignment is to protect the 'Green Zone' in Baghdad ,Iraq (basically his job is prevent the terrorists from sneaking into the compound).
Below, we see AchmedOne day Achmed tried to breach the perimeter and got tagged from 1500 yards out. Note the vest laden with explosives! Achmed won't be doing this anymore[

1500 is a good long shot, but that is a 50 for you. I saw this picture a few years ago, no article or details though.

Another "seen the pic of the blown-up-head guy with no other story attached" from me.

Oh, and the "explosives" look more like mags to me, you can see feed lips poking out of the top of the pouches.

Well the pic isn't mirrored otherwise KFOR would be backwards.

I saw something similar a while back where it was supposedly "snipers in afghanistan", but it was actually those groundhog hunters with a million vids on their site, so the "graphic taliban kills" were actually groundhogs lol

Still, anyone whose brains see the light of day like that are probably not up to anything good. I say better them than us or ours.

Or a tumbling .308. Like it skipped off of the ground and entered sideways, so it instantly fragmented.

Still, .
