Urban Sniper Training
Sgt. Owen Parisi a U.S. Force Reconnaissance Marine and Scout Sniper with 3D Force Reconnaissance Company, 4th Marine Division, Marne Forces Reserve, zeroes his M110 semi-automatic sniper system (SASS) rifle during urban sniper operations training in Panzer Kaserne in Stuttgart, Germany, July 16, 2024. Under the leadership of the highly skilled scout snipers from 3D Force Recon, the five-day sniper course was conducted, providing individual and team-level training on advanced precision marksmanship. The dynamic training introduced new challenges to the shooters, providing unique opportunities to create stability for a perfect shot from unfamiliar firing positions. The added pressure of competition, fatigue, and height and angle fluctuations provided practical, real-world training for the shooters, enhancing their sniper skills in urban environments through precision fire.
