judging by the US flag on the shooters shoulder, i doubt they are Canadian ;)
not to mention the ACU camo.
 
i dont think thats a flag since its not re white and blue, also the rifles we make dont have that square bar on the front like that, we make'em with clean barrels.

Interesting. That looks like a HS stock. Out of curiousity, does anyone know if the M24's were ever outfitted with HS stocks? By the way, that sure looks like an American flag to me, with a slight bit of optical distortion.

* Sights: Leupold Mark 4 10x40mm LR/T M3 scope[1], detachable emergency iron sights (Redfield Palma International).
* Barrel: 1 twist in 11.25 in (285.75 mm), 5 radials, free-floating.
* Stock: HS Precision — adjustable for length of pull.
* Expected accuracy: 1.0 MOA with M118, 0.75–0.50 MOA with M118LR, and 0.50 MOA with commercial match grade ammunition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M24_Sniper_Weapon_System
 
wouldn't a 60x work better than the 40x? i looked up that Leupold scope, and it only comes in that one configuration. what's the deal w/ that? does having a better quality lens mean that they wouldn't require a 60x?

Dam! you could see Neils foot prints with 60x :D I honestly have not ever used something so powerful but i have the Mark 4 and it worked fine for < 900 yards, gave me a good view of what i wanted to look at.

It broke their budgets, they couldn't afford helmets.

You are being sarcastic or just an idiot. Why r they back against the wall, maybe to obscure their view, they probably have a veil covering their opening they are shooting from? Nothing gives u away more than the distinctive outline of a round helmet up against a window. Wake up!
