Grafenwöhr: That was the USASOC International Sniper Competition 2018

The Americans wanted to know who is the best sniper in the whole country. This year, the International Sniper Competition took place again, this time in Grafenwöhr, Germany. 36 teams from 19 nations competed between July 27th and August 2nd, but ultimately there can only be one winner.

In the end, Sweden (Team 1 - Flygsbasjägare) emerged victorious, second place went to Slovenia, and third place to Germany.

The teams fought at different stations with various tasks. On land, near and far, on water in a rubber boat, and in the air, from a helicopter. Naturally, a lot of photo and video material was created, which is now gradually enriching the internet.

The Firearm Blog has taken the effort to select some great photos. In 3 parts, there are many pictures of the snipers and their equipment during the various tasks. You can find the links below:
