POTD: Swedish Snipers With Sako TRG M10 and Colt C20

Photo Of The Day and we have some interesting images from the Danish International Sniper Competition (DISC 24). These are from the Sniper Race Finale, which is the last event where the competitors have to cover 10 kilometers and 6 different shooting ranges. We’re looking at the Swedish Sniper Team in their M/90 camouflage pattern. What’s unusual is that they’re using the Colt Canada C20 which is not part of their normal arsenal. It could be a Danish rifle, on loan for the event? Another oddity is to use a normal mount on the C20, and Cantilever on the M10, when the other way around would make much more sense.

The colors on the Sako TRG M10 remind me of the jigsaw used by the Belgian Armed Forces. However, the TRG M10 is not used by Belgium or Denmark. It’s only recently that the Swedish Armed Forces mentioned that they would acquire the M10 sniper rifle in caliber 8.6 Lapua Magnum.

The color of their hearing protection looks a bit weird as well.
