TFB’s Photo Of The Day is the place where you can discover the World of firearms through the lens of a camera. Every day we run a new theme, a bunch of selected pictures and a short story. Above you can see a U.S. Marine with the 2nd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, assigned to the Special Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force – Crisis Response – Central Command 20.2, as he fires his M4 Carbine. This took place during a combat marksmanship exercise at a shooting range in Jordan, in August 2020.

The CMP range stressed the fundamentals of combat marksmanship and weapons handling. The SPMAGTF-CR-CC is a crisis response force, prepared to mobilize a variety of capabilities across the region. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Cpl. Robert Kuehn)
