POTD: International Sniper Competition at Camp Adazi – Barrett MRAD
The Barrett MRAD (Multi-Role Adaptive Design) with a Schmidt & Bender riflescope is how today’s Photo Of The Day is introduced. The sniper is from Norway and you can see a spent .338 Lapua Magnum being ejected. The Norwegian Armed Forces ordered the MRAD already in 2013 and it’s in use by several ordinary and special units, including the Police. Below you can see them running into position, unfortunately, they did not have a good day in the competition. Note the mirage band on the MRAD. Does anyone know who makers it?
Norway also uses the Barrett M82.
