Perhaps the term “sniper team” is not correct. The armed officers are observing the gathering from a vantage not possible on the ground.

That’s what snipers do.

Then why are they armed w/ a rifle? If the mission was to observe then binos/telescope/camera would be in order.

Next question...why would you need such a setup at a pumpkin festival?

Yeah, just because there is a long gun on a bipod in front of them, a spotter scope to the right, and a range card conveniently taped to the knee wall doesn’t NECESSARILY mean they are a sniper team.

However, it might be “a clue”.

And the .50 cal laying at their feet is for what?
