Daaaaang….
An SAS marksman killed five Islamic State fighters (IS) with a single sniper shot from 3,000ft away, according to reports.
The highly-experienced special forces sniper is said to have used a Barrett .50 calibre rifle to shoot his jihadist target in the chest – exploding his suicide vest.
The bomb blast killed the target and four other IS fighters. Among the five dead was a top jihadist commander, reports the Daily Star on Sunday.
That deserves an award!
Excellent job eliminating evil!
Oh, I don’t know. 1000 yards away, which is an average distance for a good sniper.
Now, if he got all 5 without the suicide vest, that would be impressive.
A Raufoss round into a vest would improve any neighborhood in a hurry, especially if you’re willing to classify that vest as light armor.
