A world-record sniper shot by a Canadian sniper detachment could never have been made with the ammunition they were issued when they left Edmonton last winter, the triggerman said in a recent interview. The Canadian .50-caliber rounds have a maximum range of between 2,200 and 2,300 metres. The U.S. rounds, they discovered, “fly farther, faster,” said Cpl. “Bill”, a 26-year-old native of Fogo Island, Nfld. The two-man Canadian team, coupled with American Sgt. Zevon Durham of Greenville, S.C., made the kill from 2,430 metres on the second shot. (That’s about a mile and a half!)
The Tactical Torch is an integral part of a soldiers arsenal and equipment. The P7 Flashlights available today can actually incapacitate an assailant by temporarily blinding him. While not essential for a sniper, per se, its a damn good light to have on hand.
The first shot blew a bag from the hand of their target, an al-Qaeda fighter walking on a road.
“He didn’t even flinch,” said Bill, who spoke to The Canadian Press on condition that his real name not be used.
“We made a correction and the next round hit exactly where we wanted it to. Well, a bit to the right.”

The kill, one of more than 20 unofficially accredited to Canadian snipers during Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan’s Shah-i-Kot Valley, beat the 35-year-old record of 2,500 yards, or 2,250 metres, set by U.S. Marine Gunnery Sgt. Carlos Hathcock in Duc Pho, South Vietnam.
Soldier of Fortune magazine estimated the number of kills made by the Canadians after talking to several U.S. soldiers in Kandahar for a cover story in its August edition.
The snipers themselves will not confirm the figure.
Looks like the U.S. Navy SEALs just got a brand new tool for the War on Terror.
The boys at NSWC Crane (Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane, Indiana) have apparently been busy little beavers over there.
One of the projects they’ve been working on is this little .50 BMG badboy.
It’s called the AS50 Semi-Automatic Rifle, and it’s the result of NSWC Crane’s teaming with Accuracy International (AI).
At approx. 27 pounds empty/dry weight (according to the AI representative at their booth), the AI AS50 is relatively lightweight….
The Accuracy International (AI) AS50 Semi-Auto Rifle (.50 BMG) was designed specifically for U.S. military Special Operations (SPECOPS) personnel/snipers.
More specifically, it was designed for the U.S. Navy SEALs to provide them with anti-materiel/long-range interdiction capability, combined with fast follow-up shot capability, in a combat-rugged, lightweight weapons package that can be assembled and broken down quickly and easily, and maintained easily. …
Sounds pretty good.
As if that’s not enough, the AI rep at the booth told us that the AS50 semi-auto .50 BMG rifle creates less felt recoil than their AW50 bolt-action .50 BMG rifle. …
Magazine capacity is 5 rounds for the AS50.
The magazine is detachable box type.
AI’s whole focus is to combine match-grade accuracy with military-application reliability and ruggedness, and it looks like it just might have succeeded with the AS50.

Tactical Sniper Kill Shot
A Canadian sniper sharpshooter in Afghanistan has been confirmed as hitting an enemy soldier at a range of 2,310 meters (7565 ft/1.43 miles), the longest recorded and confirmed sniper shot in history.
The previous record of 2,250 meters (7369 ft/1.4 miles) was set by US Marine sniper Carlos Hathcock in Vietnam in 1967.
The Canadian sniper was at an altitude of 8,500 feet and the target, across a valley, was at 9,000 feet.
Canadian sniper teams often operated in support of US infantry units, which were grateful for their help.
The record lasted only one day, until a second Canadian sniper hit an enemy soldier at 2,400 meters (7860 feet/1.48 miles).
The Canadian snipers fire special 50-caliber McMillan tactical rifles, which are bolt-action weapons with five-round magazines.
The Canadian snipers were the only Canadian troops operating without helmets or flak jackets as they had too much other equipment to carry.
Each three-man sniper team has one sniper rifle, three standard rifles Canadian (C7s), one of them with a 203mm grenade launcher.
Americans use the Barrett .50 semi-auto M-107.
They have a nick named the Barrett sniper rifle, Grim Reaper.
‘Grim Reapers’ indeed.
So far, so good.

There has never been a truer statement, I do Love Guns.
Our blushing bride is proudly displaying her custom AR-15 sniper rifle in .223/5.56 on her wedding day.
This beauty (the rifle) drives tacks with a FTF Industries Model 1 Sales upper receiver assembly which uses an ER Shaw 24″ stainless steel bull barrel with a 1:9 twist and is driven by a Superior Arms A-15 lower receiver with a very basic A2 stock backing it up.
The glass is a very simple but extremely effective Leupold VX-I 4-12x40mm rifle scope and it all can rest comfortably on a high quality adjustable Harris bi-pod.
When it comes to well placed Sniper Shots, I know what I am doing.
All of my sniper shots are well planned, carefully calculated and surgically placed engagements with a very specific target.
My name is Dave and I’m a Google Sniper.
An ARMY snipers purpose is to eliminate or disable an enemy target.
My job as a Google Sniper is to acquire the top ranking for a give keyword by carefully calculating and surgically placing important words and phrases into the text of an article in order to increase my ranking and eliminate any competition.
Why do I want to do this?
To make money, of course.
Every month, 60,500 people search for thekeyword I built this site around.
When they enter it into the search engine, Google brings up the #1 site for that particular keyword.
Because I have crafted this site in such a way, with certain words and phrases in a certain order, there is a very good chance that mine will be that #1 site.
I just happen to have something to offer that one or two of those people might be interested in purchasing.
I hope you are one of them.
I learned how to do this in just a few weeks, stick with me and I’ll have you taking and making sniper shots at Google in no time.
If you are not interested in this offer, please, take a few minutes and look around the site anyway.
I named it Sniper Shots for a reason, and that reason is, Sniper Head Shots!
There are pics of .50 cal sniper shots, stats on the longest recorded sniper shots and then there are the rifles.
I believe this and have practiced it all my life and it’s exactly what I do when I take Sniper Shots at Google.
I work on my sniper sites in my spare time, when the kids are asleep and all the chores are done.
When you go to the Google Sniper site, George Brown will tell you about the thousands of dollars you can make and how you can build one of these sites in a couple of hours.
I suppose it’s possible but so are 4 minute miles and 1000 yard kill shots, but not by me.
I don’t think $15,000 a month is typical but the extra $500 or so a month I’m bringing in is absolutely fabulous.
( update on 6/11/10 – it’s more like $1000 a month now. )
It has taken me a few minutes to get a handle on a lot of the lingo that is used and I have stumbled on some pretty basic stuff in the beginning but in the long run, it’s like learning to ride a bike or drive a stick shift.
You do it a few times, get it and then you never forget.
I’ve learned words and phrases in the last 30 days that I had never heard of before and now I can’t “not” see them everywhere I go.
I am 40 yrs old and type about 4 words a minute.
Never the less, I have 3 sites up and have made money off of 2 of them already.
Not a whole lot but it is recurring income and that is a big, big plus.
The first sniper site I built showed up on Google the first day I posted it the last entry, just like George said it would.
10 days later I was on page 2 out 15.5 million possible searches.
That was all I needed to see.
I’m sold.
Thanks George.
You Don’t Believe That Sniper Shots at Google Works?
You Don't Believe Me?
The proof is staring you in the face.
Building a web site from scratch is pretty technical and takes a lot of code and programming skills.
It was a HUGE relief to discover that I didn’t need to know any of that stuff and I don’t ever have to.
All I have to do is follow the instructions in the Google Sniper Training Manual exactly, and the results are the same every time.
I know it’s hard to believe and it doesn’t seem possible but I can prove it with the next sentence…
You are reading this… so, what I did worked.
It worked for me and it will work for you.
Since you are reading this post right now, it can mean only one of two things:
1) Either the internet truly is a strange and wonderful place.
or
2) George Browns Google Sniper Training Program really does work.
(yes, that IS a cat with a rifle pointed out the window.)
Follow the Sniper Shots at Google Training Manual Word for Word
While it’s true, the internet is a strange and wonderful place, the reason you are reading this post is because I followed the instructions in George Browns Google Sniper Training Manual exactly , word for word and to- a-T.
The results of my sticking to his guidelines are staring YOU right in the face.
This site that I created, just a few days ago, is on page 1 or 2 of the thousands of pages available for whatever you typed into Google.
With the pin point accuracy of a sniper sharpshooter, I acquired my target and executed a textbook strike from a range of global proportions with deadly accuracy.
You were my target and I hit center mass.
In fact, if this were a head shot, I’d have picked the part of your head I didn’t want you to have anymore.
That what Sniper Shots at Google is all about.

Thanks for checking out Sniper Shots with Airsoft.
I am ex-military and shooting is a way of life for me.
I have recently found a way to use my military training and experiences to help people (civilians) realize lifelike combat situations using Airsoft rifles.
I never thought I’d ever be involved in any kind of military training after my ETS date, but Airsoft and 460 feet per second hopped up gear boxes changed all that.
There is nothing soft about Airsoft these days.
