Some "insurgent" got dusted off of a rooftop by a Barrett. Through my Bradley thermals it was pretty gruesome looking. The 10th mountain sniper plugged him at a good 1200 meters. Just thought you guys would enjoy that.

Outstanding! And thanks for keeping us posted on how you're doing. Be safe. |

this thread is worthless without pics...LOL, not realy, thanks for sharing that!
Watch your azz and come home safe-and kick some ass for us.... |

I've tried taking pics though the thermals several times, because that stuff is an every day occurance here in Sadr City. They just dont come out right. Plus, the Army sort of frowns on that stuff. Sorry.
|
|
Can you hook a camera up to your thermal? That'd be some 'killer" footage.
|
|
too bad you didn't light him up with your 25mm gun...but I'll take it

Indeed. Thanks for reporting! Had to add this for the comment from wedge1082 |
|
|
Do it with a .308 then I'll be impressed. I'm not much on sniping shitheads with a .50.
|
|
I don't give a shit if he gets sniped with a M198. I'm just glad he got the motherfucker. |
|
|
May be inappropriate, but my thought was: Now you're going to have to go kill his whole family, too. Sure as hell they'll be out for blood when they see the gruesome mess that was their loved one. Good luck over there, I guess.
|

Dammit- You beat me to it. Seriously, thanks for posting it. I'm old enough, and wise enough to know better, but I wish I could trade places with you for a month. Reference the terrorist attack in Russia thread.... Those are the type of people you are fighting. Get a few, and get home safe. - Bill |

Thanks man...I needed a laugh after viewing the Russian school children photos. |
|
|
Yeah, maybe next time he'll just sneak up on the insurgent and cap him with his Baretta just to make YOU happy. Geeeesh, some people. |
|
|
At 1200 meters what difference is a 4 tenths of an inch? |
|
|
|
|
|
Well, if that's what it takes. +1 on the I-don't-care-what-he-was-sniped-with. As long as the shitbag is sniped. |
|
|
+1 There are some folks who cannot help but eat foot all day. Doesn't bother me in the least that his family takes offense. Besides, most of these idiots do not use their own homes to fire from. They're not from around Sadr City, probably not Iraqi's, but Iranian and Saudi, etc. |

Well then what do you think they should have done? The guy was a threat to our troops I repeat our troops. You dont kill him, he will kill our guys you do kill him and it makes his family mad.. Which one would you chose? |
