There are too many photographs to keep records of, but there can never be too many with a machine gun spitting fire. Here we try to collect and share them in our Photo Of The Day. Today we have Special Forces Training in Germany. There are U.S. soldiers from the 10th Special Forces Group participating in a small unit tactical training exercise which was held in the Boeblingen Local
Training Area located near Panzer Kaserne, Boeblingen, Germany, in 2019.

Can you change magazines faster than a Special Forces Soldier? Below is a U.S. soldier from the 10th Special Forces Group at the Panzer Kaserne, Boeblingen, Germany, with his carbine with EOTech sight.

As usual, we look forward to your comments. Did we miss something or got it all wrong? More eyes on the target see more things. Do you have valuable information or experience with the subject? Please let us know in the comments below.

    US Army, spent a multimillion dollar contract for new titanium receivers for M240 to slash weight 4lbs. Why they didn't do it for the M249... Titanium Receiver, and carbon fiber bipod, You'd shave 3-4 pounds.

      @LazyReader The M240 is a great platform worthwhile investing in. The M249 has run its course with deficiencies in accuracy and reliability. The Army made the right decision with the XM250.
