The British Army, Be The Best.

[Darth_Dude]

Pretty good, but Simo Hayha still takes the cake.

 

[Flames66]

Good work there, keep it up.

 

[Jaranja]

Hmmm... very interesting...
Still, it was killing another human being...
Will there ever be a day when humans stop fighting humans, and fight something else, united? >.>
Anyway, good for him, setting a new record.

No, a united world will never happen.

I was reading his quotes in my head with a badass, Price-like accent.

Then I read he was from Gloucestershire.

...Could have been worse...could have been Norfolk or Liverpool

...or.... ...Brighton...

"'Ere, don't feed the pigeons?"

Hey! Fuck off. We don't have an accent. Well, except just general chav speak. And we all know the worst would be welsh. Nobody would believe him. "Well I was sat in my armoured vehicle boyo..."

Russel Howard has led me to believe otherwise. Unless he's bullshitting, for comic effect.

 

[Gavmando]

Pfft! But did he shoot down the Hind afterwards?

Hey!
I'm from Liverpool and I have almost no accent at all. We don't all sound like cats being murdered you know!

 

[Sir Strange Of The House Lycan]

I agree with L-J-F that Simo Hayha was the best sniper ever.
Still,this guys pretty fucking impressive.

 

[Marter]

This reminds me of the movie Shooter. I like that movie, so this guy's achievement is awesome.

 

[Acidwell]

From the end of the story with mention of a rival sniper it looks like they are setting up a modern day sequel to enemy at the gates.

I'd watch it.

So would i, but the best shot could be a bit boring if there is nothing but sand and 2 miles away a tiny tiny speck that just goes splat. The rest of it sounds awesome though.

 

[Duskwaith]

Well the conditions, he said, where perfect so that must have played a huge factor on the succes rating of his kills and from what ive read on the gun he used, the high tech sights on it would actually increase the effective distance of the weapon to more than what the developers say while also factoring the weather in would futher increase the bullets range due to the heat(from what the movie Shooter told us).

He was obviously very skilled to do it with such a weapon but dosnt beat Simo Hayha or the "White Feather" guy the americans had who killed a guy a mile and a half away with a 50.cal mounted machine gun

 

[Kinguendo]

That is pro. Shame it wasn't another Canadian though. I prefer a Canadian to a Brit having the record.

Hey, he only broke the record by accident... we here in Britain actually have a policy to not make everyone else on the planet look obsolete so we try not to excel on the world stage. We figured we had our time in the limelight when we, you know, controlled the world.

So what I am saying is, he got lucky with the whole "breaking the record" thing... If he were trying to break the record he could have done it from much further away... Guns are more powerful in the hands of British soldiers, were do you think they got the idea for Juggernaut game modes?

Hey, if you get Quentin Tarantino to direct it you would still get a pretty noticable blood spray from 2 miles away.

Correction, he killed a TERRORIST. They don't count as humans, in my eyes.

An insurgent isn't the same as a terrorist. They're a type of rebel, if anything.

Imagine if the sniper refused to take the shot, instead retreating back another hundred yards, just to rack up the high score.

I have only one thing to say about the British Army:


FUCK IT!

 

[i did it 4 the lulz]

Pretty good, but Simo Hayha still takes the cake.

Now thats a sniper!

All right... calm down.

I have only one thing to say about the British Army:

Spoiler: If you have Irish family members that were forced to move out of Ireland, as I did, because of the IRA then I advise against opening this spoiler.

FUCK IT!

I counter your IRA nonesense with a healthy dose of the SAS. I believe I win this game of Top Trumps.
