POTD: Heckler & Koch 40mm Grenade Machine Gun in Poland
Welcome to TFB’s own Photo Of The Day. As the name implies, this page is dedicated to rare and unique pics which are updated daily. Behind the Heckler & Koch 40mm Grenade Machine Gun (GMG) we have British Army Pte. Warren from Poacher Troop waiting for a firing order. With a weight of almost 30 kilograms, the GMGs are usually mounted to a vehicle.
POTD: NLAW – Paratroopers Showcasing Their Firepower

POTD: The Barrett M107A1 in New Zealand
Photo Of The Day: I guess everyone wants and needs a suppressed Barrett M107A1? If you’ve never seen a suppressor for a .50 caliber rifle, I can tell you that they are huge. If I had the chance to fire any of these systems, I’d probably go for the H&K 40mm Grenade Machine Gun, loaded with high explosive grenades, of course.
POTD: Finnish Fire and Movement – Combat Shooting
In this Photo Of The Day, we visit the Guard Jaeger Regiment from Finland and take a look at their weapons and gear. It’s not too often we get a closer look at these, so here’s an excellent opportunity.
POTD: The FN SCAR in Spring Storm
In today’s Photo Of The Day, we have 17 nations working together for defence and deterrence in NATO’s enhanced Forward Presence Battle Group Latvia. Here they are in Estonia as part of the multinational exercise called Spring Storm. Above you can see soldiers with FN SCARs. I think a lot of our readers would like to find an FN SCAR 20S under the Christmas tree?
