Here's a WWI German in a sniper’s suit and an armored observation post camouflaged as a tree. Can't tell if the rifle is scoped, but it looks like it has a trench mag. I have no idea on the date/location of this picture.

Used to be one of these 'concrete' sniper trees from WW1 at the entrance to Ft Devens, Massachusetts. You would climb up it from the base, there was a small entry port in back. Of course, your rifle might look like a branch until someone saw it moving, and then you'd be a range practice target for whatever heavy rifle/light cannon was available.

Hi
For some reason I can not open the pictures?
Spain also used a monopod on the M43 sniper rifle post war from 1957 to the 1980's Some
Best Regards

For fun, let's guess what the scope is.

Hi Ken
I will agree with Your guesses . Now lets make it even more fun .
What Type BMJ is the #2 Scope , is it a 3 Piece or 4 Piece ? .

I brush-upped my memory.
The difference is that the objective bell is in different piece or in one piece with the main tube.
The pictured one here is:
Hensoldt Wetzlar DIALYTAN pre-war commercial 3 piece

I understand pre-war and early bmj are 3, late bmj (74500- from my old database) and post war are 4.
Am I right?
