French Snipers

French sniper training at its finest!??

As one astute observer noted, "you gotta love da Frenchies; only they could come up with a field expedient bench rest that looks like a still shot from "Broke Back Mountain"

french sniper
Note: This is a valid psychological two-part procedure....first you "moon" your enemy, making him furious and when he stands up to give you the finger you have a MUCH larger target so that even a French sniper can't miss!

Thanks Gary J

Accordng to the rifle and the camo pattern, I think it's some UK sniper...

this is a UK sniper team.
this isn't the french camo, and by the way, the french sniper rifle is the FR_F1 or maybe FR_F2, not this one, sure.

It may look strange but using youself or another person as a rest in the field or when you can't lie prone is a common sniper technique, as some sniper rifles can weigh upwards of twenty pounds.

I was actually there and have other photographs that follow on from this one. The competition they were shooting in consisted of a shoot that 'HAD' to involve the No2 as a bench rest. This is the most stable they could come up with. I can assure you they are definately British (Welshman) and the rifle is the L96 7.62mm. Those non snipers abusing the pictures show their lack of knowledge by their words.
