POTD: Norwegian Special Operation Commando during Oslofjord 2019

    POTD, short for Photo Of The Day, is TFB’s recurring articles where we try to find the best pictures out there and look deeper into some of the Dark Ops out there. Today we take a look at Operators from the Norwegian Special Operation Commando (NORSOC) on an industrial area during exercise Oslofjord 2019.

    Above you can see a Special Forces Sniper with Night Vision Goggles and a Barret MRAD sniper rifle, in a pretty cool camouflage.

    The Barrett MRAD was ordered by the Norwegian Armed Forces in 2013 and is in use with Norwegian Special Operations Forces since 2015 (Source: Wikipedia)

    Below: The rifle scope is a Schmidt & Bender, possibly a 5-25×56 PMII which TFB recently reviewed.
