l96a1 is it.

i dont think sins r real in that area, all false flags bullshit.

>sniper rifles are the only warfare technology that has advanced through time.

t. hanzo main

Buildings, landscapes, weather, the general public moving around, distance//time to target and the possibilities the target will move during the time from the trigger being pulled to bullet hitting intended target.
>stop believing stupid vidya games.

Happens all the time in Pakistan, doesn't happen in the west because we settle our differences with words.

Because it's not just about the rifle. It's a bout breath control and mastering a stead squeeze. I't about learning the shooters wheel and actually being able to correct your mistakes, not just adjust for them.

A Russian country bumkin named 'rabbit' was able to take out Germany's most celebrated sniper in the battle of Stalingrad because he worked at mastering the art. Koenig was defeated by his own victories and overconfidence.

Wish it was with swords

Because people tend to notice a guy with a sniper rifle hangin around public places.

Why use bullets when you can easily "accident" or "cancer" out your enemies?

World's top hitmen are not John Wicks. They're hi-tech medical operators.

Koenig is a myth made up by soviets.

shoot a rifle at just 1000m (more than half a mile) and you will learn why

the longest sniper kills in history were multiple shots.

The 2400m shot in afghanistan was like 3-4 shots

There was a company making a computer assisted sniper rifle for the public til they mysteriously went out of business a few years ago.

thats a meme. There was no enemy at the gates sniper battle.

>we settle our differences with words.
>australia
top b8 m8

people who can use one effectively at that range are uncommon

Because it takes alot of fucking skill. There are only a handful of people in our army who have actually pulled off that long of a shot.

Art? Is blood splatter art?

>tfw no AWM raifu

Who needs snipers when you have weaponized memes?

Snipers don't kill other snipers. That is a highly inefficient way to use a sniper even if the oppourtunity presented itself.

Dude! I use that AWP all the time in CS!

>what is counter-sniping

Like ol Lee Oswald!

Stuff that's mostly done with drones or artillery nowadays.

DIGITS

Awping faggots.

>buy a barrett 50cal
>shoot it once
>helicopters swarming on your position because its loud as fuck

poisoning is much easier and harder to trace for assassinations
most of the time you dont even realise someone been spiked till its too late

if war is a chess game and rooks would be the snipers. they are best utilized without obstruction and clear valuable targets.

>Netherlands

Does your country even own a drone?

>Snipers don't kill other snipers.
>What was the battle of Stalingrad?

Kekd good

What is urban warfare all the time?

some missile launcher

Fucking rare...

Also, your flag looks like something I saw in a pride parade.

Sniping is more than just pointing a rifle at someone. You need to know where the target will be and you`ll need a good vantage point, and you need an actual rifle and a whole load of other crap comes around the corner. Planning and executing an assassination with a rifle takes a fucktonne of work and it makes a mess. The organisation going into an assasination via rifle could be better spent on another method of killing. Hacking a car or something.

>T. I`ve read a book and seen many actual movies.

They do, they're called "heart attacks."

why were you at a pride parade fag

Because it's too easy to track someone back to where they shot from. And then once you have them, it's too easy to get them to talk about who it was that ordered them to shoot. And that gets messy and inconvenient.

Better to begin with if the assassination doesn't even look like one. Make it look like a "heart attack" and then you can use your MSM organs to persuade everyone that it was just a bad ticker, that's all, and no inconvenient questions get asked.

Were do I even fucking start with this shit

God i hate people like you op, people like you think that any asshole can just pick up a firearm and become sniper elite in a month

Can you even comprehend how hard it is to make a mile shot accurately? Do you know how much these trained marksman must train, how diligent and disciplined they must be to make those kind of shots? Marksman ship of that degree is akin to the training a master swordsman must go through to get that good. Why would someone spend over a decade training in such a way just to throw it away to assasinate someone?

Do you even know how much a rifle that can pull off a shot like that costs? these rifles probably cost more than every car you have ever owned combined.

There is a reason most gun assasination attempts are committed by loons with pistols, because bonzai rushing someone with your 200 dollar chinese glock is a lot easier than dedicating yourself to marksmanship

The CIA killed JFK years ago.

I played GTA 5 a lot u know... i kan shoot gooder than USMC now, u fukers don't stance a chand.

why openly show it was an assasination when they can die of natural causes like a heart attack?

I live in Jew York...

You can't leave your apartment without running into that shit during that week.

One of several thousand reasons I am trying to leave this Marxist hellhole.

Ha, look at this gay pride parade attending faggot.

Because assassinations are very limited in usefulness. It's only worth doing if you don't mind political uproar, potential war and your target being made into a martyr.

Because with assassinations, you generally only get one attempt, and there's really no guarantee anyone could land a kill shot at a mile on first try, and you don't get another chance. At that range, by the time your second shot landed the target would already be lying under 3 layers bodyguards.

Also because there's much better ways to assassinate someone.
Jörg Haider died in a drunk speeding accident with no other car around, and with no proof that he consumed even a drop of alcohol. Oh and btw he was driving home from his gay bf ;) (even though aside from being Austrian, nothing ever suggested that he's a faggot)

I get subjected to it in Jew York...

You decided to make that piece of faggotry your countries flag.

Though it makes sense since you are a little cuck nation that is literally dominated by women.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_Seychelles

No. One needs also years of training, a deep understanding of physics and a certain mindset. Combined with registrations of weapons, if one hasn't contacts for buying under the counter and the financial as social costs involved, it is no wonder assassinations don't happen to often with "sniper" rifles.

Fucking rare

The gun is a tool, it's the man that's a weapon.

T. Sniper elite dweeb

Yea, because that shot was totally over a mile...

and implying that Oswald actually made that shot.

Americans don't have to register their weapons federally. And even in states that have assault and handgun registries you don't have to register bolt action rifles. Either way assassinations with rifles aren't about efficiency or messes made or any of that shit. The dude goes into it expecting to be caught. You do that kinda shit to prove a point. You want everyone looking at that drop top Lincoln as kennedys head explodes. As many people watching as possible. Makes things clear to those whom the message was meant for.

Actually, from a coldbore with my browning 308 I can make 1800yard shots. Of course I have to adjust my leupold for a a few shots and get settled in but it's really not that hard. Hitting clays from that distance is difficult and they're about the size of a soda can.

I'm just saying. The rifle and scope together are only like 3000$ and it's taken me about two months and 160 rounds of practice to be able to do this.

The reason people use pistols is because you can get a quicker follow up shot and an ensured kill.

It's almost like you pulled that whole post out of your ass.

Jup. That's exactly what, for example, the TOS-1A was designed for. Just turn all breathable oxygen into fire in a 50m radius, that should be sufficient to kill a hidden sniper.

Distance shooting takes skill and training. Not everyone can be l33t sniper.

OP is also a faggot, as always.

Rare.

drop me awp please

rush b blyat

>Of course I have to adjust my leupold for a a few shots and get settled in but it's really not that hard.

so you have to take multiple shots to zero in, im sure that the vip you will be trying to assasinate is just going to sit still while you adjust your rifle. And that they are going to be right in front of you like at a range, you totally wont have to take a vantage point or anything like that

>The reason people use pistols is because you can get a quicker follow up shot and an ensured kill.
wrong, the reason most people use pistols is because they are
A.) ignorant of guns
B.) can conceal them

>it's almost like you pulled that whole post out of your ass.

its almost like you wanted to make yourself look like a complete retard.

>Domestic violence against women is a continuing problem

We put the smackdown on them hoes tho...

Wtf r u

>he dude goes into it expecting to be caught
>Makes things clear to those whom the message was meant for.
Killing family members and friends of the target in the most bestial way seems better fitted to reach such a goal. And with the internet and live streaming the getting caught could also be limited.

Imagine a series of murders of family members of leading bureaucrats, key persons from civil society and economic life being streamed every 2 weeks, the terror people in similar position would be far greater than one dudes head going up in smoke

Island nigger

Using a poison that trigers an heart attacl is much easier, the victim dosent know he is dead until its to late

Flag of Seychelles

Found you

its almost like crazed loons who want to disrupt society cant think rationally

who would have guessed.

That's a (((hollywood))) movie, they aren't real.

It's not the shooting, it's the getting away with it. Easy in neutral territory like Afghanistan. Even easier when the stat has your back, like Russia. Very difficult in the West: see beltway sniper and San Francisco snipers.

For contrast see metcalf sniper

Or Malay whores with a bottle of spray....

>87KB
severely underrated

To hit something a mile away requires you to know how to snipe. Which means knowing math.

Why go to the trouble of assassinating people when you can just frame them for child porn?

rationality is individual. Claiming there is a universalistic rationality is not just lunatic but also pretty submissive and speaks of the will to not take responsibility for oneself.

>With modern sniper rifles being able to hit someone almost a mile away
The rifle is capable, but normally the person behind the rifle is not.
>how come assassinations never happen??
Because we all still have a warm meal, shower and bed to come home to.
And I got fishing to look forward to this spring also.

You killed your gf with your aids infested dick. It doesnt mean you mastered shit

Last time I checked a mosin Nagant was very affordable and battle proven.

In all seriousness, they don't happen because pulling off a shot at a mile is absurdly difficult. (Granted you are extremely talented/skilled...) mile long shots only work when you have an enemy already under fire in cover, or for whatever reason- consistently in the same spot, BUT that kind of combat simply doesn't happen in the U.S. because of our geography and relatively calm cities.

Realitically, most assinantions will take place under 300 yards, based on opportunity and the necessity to take only one shot.

t.sniper

This desu. So much this....

People are seriously retarded if they can't comprehend this.

im pretty sure the guy who shot Reagan to impress an underage movie star he never met in his life was crazy

just

are you even serious?

You know the mossins nick name is a garbage rod right? Mosin negant is absolute shit when it comes to firearms, you cannot make accurate shots with the thing at great distances if your life depended on it, its so cheap because how fucking horribly its made

And by "battle proven" do you mean thousands of guys charging the enemy wildly shooting and hoping to hit something?

go back to playing COD faggot, or maybe actually learn about firearms before you make yourself sound like a total retard

Anything beyond 600 meters is hard but it can basically be done with ''feeling'' if you spent enough time shooting. A mile is much harder then that. You have to account for wind, air temp, gunpowder temp, air moisture, altitude, the rotation of the earth (coriolis effect), whether you are shooting north/south/east or west etc.

because nobody can aim them

Fkn Czechd.

first shot missed. second hit the backpack. third shot hit torso for kill. terrorists btfo

The beltway sniper got caught because he started leaving evidence (calling cards). If he never did that he probably never would have been caught.

Distance shooting is extremely difficult. You need to account for weather, air pressure, humidity, rotation of the earth, wind and other things.

Was getting first round hits with 5.56 at 600-800m with an ACOG senpai.

From 308 onwards it dosen't make a difference.

In the range you could localize where a shot was fired everything above it sounds the same

Educate yourself.

I think you misunderstand. You only have to take a few shots to zero it and it is good for about a week or unless you have some massive temperature fluctuation.

wrong, the reason most people use pistols is because they are
>A.) ignorant of guns
>B.) can conceal them
.... which means that someone can get more follow up shots faster if they're unfamiliar with guns and can conceal them easier to get closer for an ensured kill....

Gee user, tell me more about what I just said. Please continue to talk like you know anything past playing call of duty for years.

HAIDER DID NOTHING WRONG
FUCKING GLOBALISTS

How about nah. That's not how that works at all.

>Was getting first round hits with 5.56 at 600-800m with an ACOG senpai.
20 inch barrel?

Never said it was that hard, its just not that easy. But it depends on the wind etc to.

You DEFINITELY have to account for all the mentioned factors at 600. Let's assume you're at 10x zoom using 1 mil spacing, zeroed at 100meters. from 0- 100meters the shot will be below the crosshair, from 101-299 meters, the shot will land slightly above the cross hair, and then maybe 300-460 in the next mil down.

UNLESS, you have doped your scope, have a range finder, and a perfect sense of the conditions. You will NEVER land a shot at 600 meters on the first shot.

Getting a "feel" only works on the range. You NEED SCIENTIFIC CALCULATUON to land first shot hits beyond 500meters

Who are you to judge him? From your point of view formed by the environment and individual interpretation, experiences, sure it might have been irrational, crazy. But from his point of view, was it so crazy? He didn't impress the biatch after his deed, but no one could know this upfront

>You only have to take a few shots to zero it and it is good for about a week

Lol what... the... fuck....

no where in here does it mention the range of the shots he made, or atleast i didnt see anything referencing that

most likely he was no more than 300m away shooting into crowds of soldiers

the effective range is how far away the gun can make a kill, but there is not guarentee that it will be accurate at that range

>I think you misunderstand. You only have to take a few shots to zero it and it is good for about a week or unless you have some massive temperature fluctuation.

so you are going to zero in your gun at a linear range, and know exactly how far away you are going to be?

Im sure that the wind, air pressure, and temperature is going to be exactly the same the day you make the shot as when you zero'd it in, and im sure you are going to be at the exact same range and angle when you make the shot as well. noone of this would change right?


Im also sure that you will probably not get a healthy dose of adrenaline right before you pull the trigger, so your shot wont fluctuate at all.


good to know.

well obviously he did something wrong to them

>Who are you to judge him? From your point of view formed by the environment and individual interpretation, experiences, sure it might have been irrational, crazy. But from his point of view, was it so crazy? He didn't impress the biatch after his deed, but no one could know this upfront

austria was a mistake
