POTD: Aim Small, Miss Small
POTD, short for Photo Of The Day, is TFB’s recurring articles where we try to find the best pictures on the Internet. Today we join the U.S. Marines as they do sniper training with M110 SASSs, M107s and M40 A6s.

So how does a compensator work? Well, just look at the picture below. Note the massive magazine as well.
