POTD: The LMT M203 in Danish International Sniper Competition
The Royal Danish Army uses the GRK M/13, which is a M203 Grenade Launcher made by Lewis Machine & Tool Company. That’s our featured image for the Photo Of The Day, from the Danish International Sniper Competition where 32 teams from 14 nations competed with Allies and partner nations. Note the steep angle of the Aimpoint red dot, to get the aim right for the 40 mm potatoes.
