AshVilla Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Ever wanted to be a Sniper? It's not as glamorous as it looks in the movies, you may have seen films such as The Shooter and Saving Private Ryan and thought to yourself, how cool would it be to shoot like that. Well its not just the shooting it takes years of training to blend into the background and make yourself look like an inanimate object chances are if your caught in these guys cross hairs its already over before you know it. Below is a link to an article from the daily mail in it are some German Snipers during a training exercise see how many of them you can spot and no cheating. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2561773/Spot-snipers-artists-amazing-collection-photos-hidden-gunmen-blending-various-landscapes.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Unless of course you fight for the soviets in world war 2. Then it requires like 2 weeks of training and you barely get given a gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mockingbird_franklin Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 spotted 3 of the first 4 reasonably quickly, after that got just over half of the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 No snipers. But reminds me the jungle out back could do with a first strimming of the year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffy Biro Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 First few were easy, next few were more impressive. Remember doing it in cadets and the ex army guy always hid you could never find him you would just get a "you're dead" from the other leader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
