So is this:
Maybe it’s just me ... but when I’m shooting a scoped rifle from prone, I turn my hat around so the bill doesn’t bump the scope. I’m amazed that the prone guy in back can see anything.
Unusual mounts on the scopes of both rifles. Could they be video recorders that save what is seen through the rifle’s optics? These are expensive sniper rifles, not the vanilla style most folks think of when they hear AR... I’m sure the results of the investigation will provide answers...
