Any International Sniper Competition is yummy-yummy for firearms photo addicts, and this Photo Of The Day is no exception. Above we have a clean shot (pun intended) of two Belgian snipers, using a tripod and the tank trap for support. The Belgian jigsaw camouflage has been replaced by Multicam.

Below: The best handlebars we have seen in ages, represented by an International Sniper Competitor from the United Kingdom. Jolly good!

  @FactChecker90803 Are you referring to the top photo/lead image of the Belgian snipers? They are using FN Mk20 SSR's based on the FN SCAR.
