    Welcome to another day of wonderful photographs here at The Firearm Blog.

    Once you’re done playing Candy Crush Saga on your smartphone you can relax with these magnificent pictures of a MLRS firing a Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System rocket.

    Sometimes all it takes to take a great photo is to be there. At the right time and location and if you happen to been taking pictures of something that shoots rockets it certainly increases your chances of success.

    I am sure that very few people have ever seen a MLRS, or the M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System as it’s called. Have you ever seen one in real life?
