Photo Of The Day and we go for another of the U.K. Ministry Of Defense’s Best of Defence Imagery 2023. It’s difficult to see, but I presume this British sniper is working behind the L115A3 sniper rifle. Do you see the thermal front attachment he’s using? Makes sense considering the time of the day.

Welcome everyone to the 226th edition of ‘Hot Gat or Fudd Crap?’, one of our many series here on TFB. If you’re new to the series, this is where we look at the most obscure firearms that are actually for sale and ask the question – is this Gat a sweet deal or only have Fudd appeal?  Each week the TFB staff weighs in with their thoughts, but readers get the final say in the poll at the bottom of each article.

Photo Of The Day:  Defensie Caribisch Gebied, also known as the Caribbean Netherlands Command, refers to the military command responsible for the defense and security of the Caribbean territories of the Netherlands. They are a part of the Royal Netherlands Navy and operate in the Caribbean territories of the Netherlands, which include the islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba, often referred to as the Caribbean Netherlands or the BES islands.

Welcome to another Photo Of The Day! Today’s selection features the courage and sacrifice of soldiers around the world, the brave men and women who risk their lives to defend their countries and protect their citizens. Above you see a picture of a Hellenic special forces soldier, as he reloads an AXSR advanced sniper rifle. This rifle is made by Accuracy International and retails for around ten grand. The rifle was originally developed for the USSOCOM Advanced Sniper Rifle (ASR) program. The riflescope is from Steiner Optics.

The Australian Department of Defence has selected the Accuracy International AX-SR as the Long Range platform for the sniper capability of the L159 contract. The rifle will be introduced into service as a multi-calibre system, capable of being configured to .338 Lapua Magnum, .300 Norma Magnum and 7.62mm NATO calibres.

Another Photo Of The Day and we have snipers of the Royal Danish Army fire at targets from an uneven platform during the Latvia International Snipers Competition. This was part of Defender Europe at Forward Operating Site Adazi, Latvia, on May 13, 2022.

Each day a different image from the world of firearms. We call this POTD, short for Photo Of The Day, and it is our daily article series where we go to great lengths trying to find the most interesting pictures for you out there. Today we have a French Marine Commando sniper supporting Operation Barkhane in West Africa as part of the European Task Force Takuba. This multinational effort aids local forces of Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger and Chad in combating terrorist threats in the region.

We have been publishing the Photo Of The Day for years. Our focus is on firearms, sometimes a new product, a classic or in the hands of soldiers or sports shooters. Sometimes the pictures work just like pieces of art, like when the night is painted in bullet traces.

At DSEI 2021 in London, we took a look at Accuracy International’s latest pair of rifles. Back in February 2020, Accuracy International announced the introduction of the AX MKIII and the AX 50 ELR but with the global pandemic, this is the first time we’ve had a chance to take a closer look at them in person.

Do you love photography? Without images TFB would not be the same. TFB has been running our very special Photo Of The Day series for years, sharing great photos from around the world and the world of firearms onto the screen you’re looking at right now. Today we have various rifles from Accuracy International, including their AWM model (L-115A3 LRSR). AWM is short for Arctic Warfare Magnum, indicating the caliber is  .338 Lapua Magnum. Spain also uses the AI AW in 7.62x51mm. The camouflage painting on these rifles looks quite effective for blend into the nature. Also note the front Picatinny rail, most likely there to accommodate night vision or thermal imaging devices. 

Today we offer various pictures from the 2nd Brigade and the Danish International Sniper Competition (DISC 2021). Eigthteen teams from various places in Europe fighting for the victory and glory.

Every now and then you see a rifle with a setup that you really would like to own yourself. In this Photo Of The Day from Accuracy International USA, we have an AI AXSR Covert 308 to admire. There is only one photo today, but sometimes that is enough.

TFB will be running several Photo Of The Days from the 2021 Danish International Sniper Competition. These competitions are a great source of information about which types of firearms various countries and armies use, and how they use them. There’s also a lot of other gear to admire. These photos come from the 2. Brigade in Denmark.

Each day a different image from the World of firearms. We call this POTD, short for Photo Of The Day, and it’s our daily article series where we go to great lengths trying to find the most interesting pictures and stories for you out there. The topic of today’s POTD is  Accuracy International Ltd and their official U.K. launch of the AT-X rifle. Don’t take these images lightly. These are the first civilian competition rifles from AI for 40 years! Yet you say other brands hate you?

Shooting at distant targets while it’s snowing is a challenge.
