POTD: 2024 Summer Olympics and Heckler & Koch HK416F

The French Army sent a souvenir from the 2024 Summer Olympics, and because we like firearms it’s a pretty good share for the readers of TFB’s Photo Of The Day. There are at least four Heckler & Koch HK416F rifles in this image, with both EOTech and Aimpoint sights. I spot more empty holsters than Glocks. Can you see it as well? (Hint: second from the left).


Did you watch the Olympic Games 2024 at all? What are your favorite summer sports?

In terms of shooting, apart from air rifles and shotguns, there isn’t much left to watch, unfortunately.

It’s been a few years since I visited the Chateauroux Shooting Centre in France, but it was a great national arena for all kinds of shooting.


Please check back tomorrow for more articles and images from the world of shooting.
