I was looking at the 12/26/03 USA Today. They had a picture of a US Army sniper w/his M14 and his prtner was behind him. The M-14 had what looked to be a dot-scope on it. Why?
The article also talked about them using a .50 cal for sniping.
I could not get a good look at his partners gun, the receiver was behind him. But it had a big bbl, like the size of, say on a M60, from the gas tube forward, thin, w/nothing on it but the flash suppresor. It had a 3 pronged flash suppressor, and I couldn't see any bipod on it, or the reciever...it surely didn' have Barrett looking flash-suppresor on it.
Anybody got an idea on what they are using?
