US Army Sniper Breaks Down His Field Combat Gear | Loadout 

Same literally my favorite instructor.

Is he the one that gave you the nickname Ferocious Enema?

@@J_D_B4379 that’s his real name

@@frostbitepokin9520 take that over a 7.62 enema

did he help you learn how to trickshot?

It could be something as little as knowing you've always got your favorite MRE just in case that keeps you going.

@MAYOIS4INLINESKATERS More like hell. There’s a reason they are commonly called “Meals . Rejected . by Ethiopians” lmao.

i was expecting some protein or suvrival bars, ramen or dehydrated food, a sidearm preferably with extended threaded barrel and suppressor .45 acp would be my choice, green and red smoke grenades, a gps, tape that has a camo cloth backing, comms headset with ptt, an mp5 or mp7 for med range engagements, and some non reflective camo paint on the tripod and scope

@@commiesnzombies Likewise - I get the feeling he was briefed by seniors not to show off too much official gear setup...

@@commiesnzombies I don't think he gets to just choose any weapon and setup he wants I'm sure he needs to pick from the pot

😂😂😂

360 no scope.

@WhatApp ❶❺❼❶❸❾❷❾❻❾❼ shut up bot

P.S. it's a scam

the no scope tho

Yea yea hats off

Remembers me of Bob Lee swagger s speech after his analysis...

Oh, we used to carry a lot more. He gave a weight range for his ruck of 35-65lb. On a good day, mine was 75lb. Heaviest I ever jumped with was 110lb.

Could also pass for an oak or pine savanna environment. Or glacial plain in the Midwest around the Great Lakes.

Considering this gentleman is an instructor at the sniper school down in Fort Benning, Georgia, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be there. I certainly wouldn't classify it as a coastal plain, but its not far off. Not sure of the technical term, but I would call it the low hills.

Most likely Ft Benning, GA

AMOGUS? SUS?

More commonly known as “Georgia”.

a kill

More recon than shooting

Let the ignorant remain so.

tell that to the families of of school shooting victims in the states

@@kmizanfauzi7291 I survived one. But the firearms don’t scare me. Because I know they’re just a tool. It’s the person who wielded the guns that scared me. Without him the gun wouldn’t go anywhere or hurt anyone. You need a better line. I’m Gen Z and we’re catching on to your bullshit.

@@chloehennessey6813 your right we thought the gun grew limbs and walked into schools and shot kids

@ kmizan fauzi Thanks for proving my point. We don’t blame the car when the driver runs through a crowd. Or the alcohol company for a drunk driver. Or the knife maker after a mass stabbing. So why do ignorant people blame firearms? Because they’ve been fed irrational fear mongering by the media and government. Numerous countries have restricted or outlawed guns only to continue to have violent people commit acts of violence, with guns with cars, with knives/swords, or whatever else they can get their hands on. Evil people do evil things, ignorant people blame someone or something else.

You're wrong buddy, it's not a Garmin Instinct Tactical

I'm probably wrong, but looks more like a Suunto watch, back in my day we just had G-Shocks

that a casio

i think it’s a garmin fenix

@@z0phi3l SUUNTOs are absolute trash. I've destroyed two of them on training rotations back 3 years ago. Whatever, I had REI dividend points so I didn't really pay as much as I could have been. Garmin and what you mentioned, G-Shocks are the way to go :)

What is it with the multiple fullstops? One fullstop is perfectly sufficient.* The* next sentence then starts with a capital letter.

Because I worked with many Army personnel before,,,,,, and,,,, with their intellectual level,,,,, most times its a must to get a point across... you must be the acceptation..... a more likely scenario is you were trained well in english just like they trained a monkey to go into space... I wasnt aware the goober-ment was policing language now... you are perfect for the job.... I'll be sure to stay away from the fence line and fans while you are around.... @@einundsiebenziger5488

You don’t. Shit just happens

There have been stories where the snipers were lying so still that snakes crawled over them

You just sit there and enjoy the ride!

“Just piss on yourself.” Apparently, it makes a good repellent. It’s also the best prank advice for the new guys. 😂😂😂

Highly depends on the situation, if you need to kill it, just snap it's neck or use your knife. If the animals are pretty chill then just enjoy their company.

Normally when they inflitrate, they would already get a sense of the environment and get changed. If they were already in a Ghille suit, they meant that they are going deep behind enemy lines, within enemy territories. They have been trained to brace all forms of elements. If it rains, it rains. You do not want to get caught and shot midway while changing. They would also normally change if they are far away from their intended target or have set up a parameter.

On all of my stalks I had a known or suspected enemy position that I was moving to. During my mission planning, I would do a terrain analysis with a topographic map to determine how close I could get to the enemy position and still be unseen due to the terrain alone. This would give me an idea of where to set up my mission support site and cache my rucksack. From the MSS, I would move to the last cover and concealed position. Once there, I would pull out my ghillie suit and veg it up to match the local flora. So, depending on the terrain and vegetation, only the last couple hundred meters would I have my ghillie suit on. I'd say that it would take me about 30 minutes to camo up and get my ghillie prepped for the final portion of the stalk. As far as movement, if you can see the enemy first, you can quickly determine their blind spots and use them to approach relatively fast. I remember my last stalk, from the time we were dropped of a few miles away to when I moved into my final firing position was about 45 - 60 minutes. Unfortunately it wasn't as concealed as I hoped. So, over the course of about a hour, I cut branches off of some shrub oak and transplanted it on the other side of the tree where my shooting position was. I took my time, moving a branch about every ten minutes, mostly so that no drastic changes to my spot were suddenly made. Once I was done, I waited some more knowing that once I shot, a walker would be called within 10 meters of me, so I wanted that observer to get used to the bush that I had made. Fortunately, another sniper shot before I did which drew the observers attention to my spot. The other sniper was about 20 meters behind me and using the same line of fire. While the observers were able to talk the walker onto the other sniper, that meant that they scrutinized my area and didn't talk the walker onto my newly created bush (I was out of their line of sight behind a tree). After about 10 minutes, I moved into position and made the shot. The walker came over but the observers couldn't ID me. Eventually they asked the walker to put his flag on my head. Once he did, the observers radioed that it looked like he just put his flag on the ground. Throughout this, I was keeping near constant observation of the instructors so I knew when I could safely move. I was slow and smooth whenever any part of my body was within their line of sight but at the same time I was not impersonating Drax's "I am invisible because my movements are so slow as to be imperceptible." If I could see they were looking elsewhere, I could move from behind the tree and put in another branch. The trick was not to move fast enough that their peripheral vision could detect the movement and attract their attention to my location.

woah, no way?

Business insider got best videos on military as i had seen...

Your imaginary friend would have a much easier job protecting them if they stayed home to actually defend their country.

😂😂😂

It depends on the unit but most snipers are given a fairly free reign over their gear. So long as they can reasonably justify it, most commanders will accept the personalization.

Isn't War Awesome? It's just SO Awesome! None of that "Peace" stuff for people, only War.

Another commenter said that on their sniper missions they wouldn't put the ghille suit on until like the last few hundred meters to the firing position. I imagine they would leave the helmet with their ruck cache

no

“I don’t understand how thermal works” -Mike

@@jb76489 I just wanted to confirm my assumption that Ghillie Suits like that are absolute nonsense when anyone can get a thermal for a few bucks and even most hunters carry one today. You'd need at least a reflective tarp or a small foxhole to disguise your signature I guess.

@jamesbarrett918 I guess that the assumption that only using suits like that is useless nowadays was correct? Of course they wouldn't let us know what is used nowadaws.
