Fieldcraft Urban Sniping

[m1a convert]

I just read the book "Fry the Brain'

I thought is was excellent.

Are there any other good books that focus on Urban or Guerrilla snipiong?

I have read all the "standard works" so far.

I heard the IRA published a book called the Green Book etc.

I also believe Gabe Suarez has a book of Guerrilla Sniping as well.

Re: Urban Sniping

You might check out the Army Marksmanship Units. "Counter Sniper Guide".

It's old but still useful. Lot's of people don't like it because it doesn't deal with the fancy tricked out gimmick stuff many "tactical" people like.

It's practical, it make since. It also doen't cover the fundamentals as they indicate in the guide, there are plenty of marksmanship fundamental books out there.

It's simple, designed for LE. Tells you how to pick a rifle, glass, etc., and how to practice for LE Counter Sniper operations. You'd be supprised what they recommend for training but if you know anything about LE Counter Sniping, and take a honest look at it, you'll see they are right.

The AMU trained a lot of cops in sniping/counter sniping, including the FBI before they got their own program started.

Don't read it if you are wanting something to justify your fancy tricked out tacticool set up.

KraigWY,
Do you know where one could get a copy of that guide? I looked online for one to download and attempted to download it twice but both were all sorts of screwed up and unreadable. Thank you very much for your help
