Military exercises of the 15th Gizyck mechanized brigade were held in northern Poland. This brigade is deployed in the Warmia and Mazury Voivodeship of Poland, bordering on the Kaliningrad region. Armored vehicles with remotely controlled anti-tank missile launchers were involved in the exercises near the Russian borders., as well as sniper units from the 2nd mechanized battalion.
Sniper drills, which were part of the 15th brigade maneuvers of the Polish army, attracted special attention of experts.
In particular, indicates that, how Polish snipers decided to disguise their weapons in winter conditions – primarily sniper rifles. In this regard, we can state the following: "Overdid it", making mistakes.
The weapon is wrapped in several layers of white masking cloth. In this case, the tissue reaches not only the trunk, but even to the muzzle end - the muzzle brake (compensator).
In some photos you can see, like layers of fabric, overlapping each other, hanging from arms. And in some cases, they are bolted to sniper rifles with a rope or wire.
If we admit, that with this option of disguising the weapon, shooting was carried out, the shots could ignite the fabric, which was used by Polish snipers and reached the muzzle. In a forest (albeit winter) as a result, there would be a danger of burning dry grass and brushwood.
celebrated, what if the snipers were going to change positions, it is fundamentally unacceptable to hang from the weapon, used to disguise. This may cause, that the rifle will cling to everything, what gets in the way when moving (eg, tree branches), and hinder this movement.
