French Snipers

[Flash]

They're not French, but are actually British. I have no idea why they're doing that though. Seems like an unstable place to rest that rifle.

From the Blue Beret and the Sniper rifle I am guessing they are from the RAF Regiment, kind of like the RAF's version of UASF Security Police/Forces on steriods.

(rifle looks the same, is it standard issue just for the RAF or the UK armed forces?)

The USAF SP's also have counter-snipers: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/airforce/l/blafsnipers.htm

COLLEGE:

If you can't row ... BOX. If you can ... DO BOTH. GREAT sports. You'll be a better man for having participated in each/either .... good luck.

Didn't row, but did traditional Okinawan Karate-Do (won two turneys too). Also did climbing. Basically any sport in college is good - even ballroom dancing, those dudes met the hottest girls!

I have rowed and boxed in college so far, now I play rugby. Does that make me special?

Way to go UK, you made sniping look gay. Turns out the impossible is possible.

..... is this a "Hey mom!" picture? ...

I think someone just got it right .... think about it guys:

What kind of a stable long-range platform is shooting from someone's ass?? Hmmmm .... maybe it would all depend on what you're shooting .... ???
