I was wearing a ghillie suit one time. Camo was so good I fell down and got lost!!
You mentioned the snipers of the Allies in WWI, but attribute their inception and use to Britain. In fact, the Allies first sniper school was set by the Canadian Army, by Col. Nevil A.D. Armstrong. He conceived the idea of the 2-man team consisting of an observer or scoout and a sniper (both did both jobs). He also wrote two of the sniper manuals still considered standard reference works today. One of those, "Fieldcraft, Sniping and Intelligence" was reprinted (for the umpteenth time) in 2019, and you can buy it in paperback for 12 bucks. The most effective sniper on any side in WWI was another Canadian, who had 378 confirmed kills. Sgt. Francis Pegahmagabow, an Ojibwa soldier, came from Parry Sound in Ontario. He had 378 confirmed kills,, but also had as many again that were not confirmed. Sgt. Pegahmagabow was also a superb scout, and would often go into or behind German lines to collect intelligence, maps, and overhear attack preparations.
That skill all by itself made his role invaluable, but this incredible soldier also single-handedly took over 500 German troops prisoner, bringing them back to the Allies lines, where some would be questioned and all sent to Prisoner of War camps until the end of WWI. He was one of the most highly decorated soldiers in any of the Allied armies, and was regarded by his fellow soldiers as someone with incredible skills in both marksmanship and forward scouting. There are several good articles about him on the Internet.
Although Lt-Col. Armstrong is mentioned in the biography of USMC sniper Carlos Hathcock as being well known in the Vietnam era (by reputation, for his work and manuals of WWI to Captain Jim Land of the U.S. Marine Corps, who was a driving force for re-establishing the idea of the Scout/Sniper team within the Marine Corps, Armstrong, although a veteran of WWI, also played a key role in WWII by setting up sniper training programs for the Allies..
At the outbreak of WWII, well known for his First World War sniper training school, Lt. Co. Armstrong became an instructor in the Sniping Wing of the Small Arms Schools at Hythe and Bisley. In 1942 he became Commandant at the Royal Marine Sniping School. Since that time, Canadian Army snipers have been, and remain among the world's finest.
Of course, the story of Simo Hayha who had well over 700 confirmed kills during the Winter War, when the USSR tried to annex Finland, is a story al by itself. Fortunately, he survived WWII and was interviewed and written about extensively. His success is even more amazing when considering that he used the license-built Finnish version of the 1890's Mosin-Nagant with only iron sights. He was known as a master of winter camoflage.
And, WWII saw many expert snipers, both men and women fighting for the Red Army. The Whermacht likewise made extensive use of snipers. It's an interesting history, and many countries have produced both superb snipers and excellent training schools. The skill-set is evolving once again with the present conflict in Ukraine and the advent of even longer-range man-portable rifles. Some of the International Volunteer Forces are snipers who formerly served in the armed forces of many NATO countries, and as recently as last week have posted a video update of the sniper system and training that's been developed there.
The Ghillie suit was adopted from Scottish game-keepers (and poachers)
That was my dream job and it's still today my dream job.
Sniper training is grueling. And practice makes perfect.
"Didn't see you at sniper training this morning Cpl Jackson!"
"Thank you sir 🙂"
I was never a threat and still scare you. A Whole spool of wire in my hands.
The Canadian sniper who made that record setting shot was Rob Furlong. He didn't use a Barret M107, He used a McMillan TAC-50. Craig Harrison later broke that record with an L115A3.
I hate when these shows don't do proper research and say things that are not true.
He used barrett cartridges because he ran out of his and he got the record with barrett ammo.
The Canadian was not Rob Furlong! His shot was beaten a couple times since he made it.. Rob's shot was 2430m and the newest record is 3540..
Best snipers in the world are British
Canadian sniper confirmed longest shot 2.2 miles or 3540 meters using a McMillan TAC-50
@@michaelrollins3765 Again that isn't true.
What he ran out of was the Canadian standard issue precision 50 caliber round. This round fires a 650 grain projectile at a slower MV than the American round. The round he made that hit with was the standard 750 grain precision 50 caliber round that came from the US gov. standard supply chain. The reason He was able to get his hands on that ammo was because he was part of a Joint operation and another team member simply handed him a magazine. The Canadian issued ammo was more than up to the task. He simply ran out. He would made that same shot either way. There is no such thing as Barret Ammo.
Shot! Dude!!! Roa o Aotearoa nui.
The 'sniper' on the front cover is giving something a severe looking at. No magazine and a bolt to the rear. Passed sniper school??
Can we not talk about schematics rather than just meeting a job well done
The Indonesian snipers currently serving in the forests of Papua are clearly one of the best.

The only thing over the counter ammo is good for is its empty shell... not only is a repressed round thats been fine tuned with practice and patience a more accurate round, its also much cheaper if you have the time... and strive for perfection!!
I would not say nearly a mile, I would say a mile. Especially considering the records are all over 1 mile..
Silent. Covert. Deadly. Also describes one of my farts.
The Best were my trip wires.
they still thjnk they are the best.
MSTR.CPL. A. Perry of the Canadian P.P.L.I. used a Macmillin Mac -10 for his incredible shot, not a Barrett which is also an excellent sniper rifle.
Dallas Alexander. scout/sniper with JTF-2 during their deployment to iraq in 2014 (?) also used a MacMillan TAC-50. As je described during an interview, he and his spotter were able to set up a position on the top floor of an abandoned 4-story building, which allowed them to see much of the area where ISIS were still active. They had also got hold of some modified prototype optics which gave them a better sight picture at longer ranges. That was the deployment when the JTF-2 team had great success against the ISIS forces then occupying Mosul, and when Alexander made the (at the time) Record shot of well over 3 kilometers.
Absolutely loved my Parker - Hale. Obviously a while ago now.
And the kahles helia x6 scope. First course to transition from 303 to Parker Hale, 1979 Australian Army sniper course, 6 June - 20 July. Singleton,NSW. Infantry centre.
@@foleymark4563 Did mine in '80. Great instructors, good environment.
@@briancarr34 What unit? Bud, small world! Ex 6 RAR, Recon. Had the best DSs'. Ranger, Pom SAS, and great Vet senior NCOs! What a blast, literally! Miss it so much!
@@foleymark4563 Was a starting member of 5/7 RAR sniper cell, then went and spent time at 1 RAR in Recon/Sniper Pl. Loved the job. Also had a Pom instructor. Great days. I like the fact that we had none of the gear they have nowadays, yet we had to rely on personal skill and brains. No ballistic calculators, laser range finders etc etc. Cheers.
@@briancarr34 Not to mention hand made Yowie suit! I was lucky I went through in winter! Would have struggled doing the air photo nav badge test in the Singo Ranges in the summer!
I guess the sniper school at Ft. Bragg was closed down since they don't mention it in this video... Don't bother commenting on the name change it was a betrayal to all of us stationed there in the past...
I was staying there and I just went there to see my child graduate from Air Born school. Ft. Moore now has a museum and in there it explains why they name changed. Go there and find out.... VERY VALID REASON.
I guess naming a military base after a general who betrayed his oath is also insulting to those who held to their oaths and not had bases named after thrm
More destruction of history. The goal is demoralization.
@@rtyler1869everyone alive when it happened should sign a petition.
I glad I got to see it before name change
I believe the farthest confirmed was made with a cheytac not a Barrett
7.62×51 ...
ONE shot, one kill isn't exactly correct, often it is a féw shots, one kills, especially over extremely long distances like 800m+.
They would wager 5 to one. I walked away so how well did that Math Work?
4800 m ... confirmed...
Soooo...2+ miles....?????
Only reason I'm close is because I played high school football.
Who did you say invented the ghillie suit
😎👌🤐🔞
In the civil war the Tennessee sniper made a name for their practice was squirrels and then they turned the gun on 2 humans.
Who Is The Best Sniper In The World
The one nobody has spotted.
Are you talking about distance or kills?
The best sniper in the world is the one no one has ever heard of. That quiet professional that seeks neither fame nor fortune who's exploits the world will never know. Right know he is somewhere in the world going about his duty in a professional manner, dispatching high value targets seeming at will. The enemy fears him. The rest of the world doesn't know he exists.
Nemas me ni meta kamoli
You should never stopped a man who wants to join the military because a piece of paper when they want to fight and die for the country that's what they those are the ones that you need on the battle field
That rifle has been proven to shoot 7/10ths of a mile 1250ish meters........and that Canadian used a Mcmillan tac .50, NOT the Barrett. Get ur facts right. And when he made that shot he was using American made ammo, as he even said he ran out of his own ammo.
Americans forget that the War of Independence was fought between the British colonists and the British army, the first three Presidents had British accents.
He meant to say miles away. Not meters away or nearly a mile away.
why no comments?
Idk
Cant be bothered I guess😊
I just commented.
@@mohunter68 oki
Because it's regurgitation?
I heard they didn't take female's as Sniper's cause their boobs leave a telltale trail. Maybe it's changed now for PC
Ask the red army
Gotta know your blind spots
How long do you get? I'll make a deal if I can do it my first time y'all gotta let me in the army without gde mmk cause don't like school bs I wanna be on Frontlines period.
Based simply on what you typed, you don’t have the mentality. You sound more like a serial killer than a sniper. Just my opinion. Get some counseling.
Looks ez 😂
Get up at 4 AM tomorrow and then to go a park near you. Lay in the shrubs for 4 hours without moving. If you can do that, get back with us. And that’s the easy stuff. If you can do that, the next day, crawl without your stomach leaving the ground - for 800 yards.
@@frankedgar6694he's been crawling for weeks. What should he do next?
