Also,

The 'shredded' suits worn by the snipers above are called GHILLE SUITS invented by an American Company in the 90's. These suits come is various camo types for all environmental conditions. Pakistan Army Ghillie Suits are however made locally.

The above is wrong Ghillie suits were supposedly developed a lot earlier by Scottish gamekeepers (a Ghillie is a name for a gamekeeper) They have been in use since the 1900's.

At least you took a notice. It's been going on for some time now. This stealth-trolling must stop.

no it is Heckler & Koch HK PSG-1

Yes it is a PSG-1. Odd choice for the IA though. This rifle being a semi-auto is essentially designed for Police and LEA CT usage and preferred by them (although not exclusively). Bolt action typically is considered to provide better accuracy (sub MOA) in the field and most Armies use bolt action rifles for dedicated sniper usage. I am sure IA also use some version of bolt actions.

The best sniper rifle in use with the Pak Army right now is the AI L-96 in use with the SSG. The regular units are using the Steyr SSG-69 for their sniper cadres as has been mentioned in prev. posts.

There are sniper training programs at both the School of Infantry and Tactics as well as with the SSG.

I would second the above posts. If you are posting pictures related to IA etc. please use appropriate forums before this one degenerates into another "mine is better than yours..."

Thank you.

Thank you.

AI L-96 IS better than Barrett M82

 

[Keysersoze]

Yup the L96 is a really good weapon. Just wish it could be lighter but I wish that about most kit.

Two different classes of weapons. Former is a dedicated Sniper rifle, whereas Light fifty is more of an AMR which can and has been used against personnel as well. Accuracy wise you are definitely correct that L-96 has much higher accuracy than the M-82.
