POTD: 2024 Summer Olympics and Heckler & Koch HK416F
The French Army sent a souvenir from the 2024 Summer Olympics, and because we like firearms it’s a pretty good share for the readers of TFB’s Photo Of The Day. There are at least four Heckler & Koch HK416F rifles in this image, with both EOTech and Aimpoint sights. I spot more empty holsters than Glocks. Can you see it as well? (Hint: second from the left).
The German Army Selects Heckler & Koch G210
The German Army has selected Heckler & Koch’s MR308A6 as the G210. Since 2020 the Bundeswehr has been seeking a new short-range sniper weapon (Scharfschützengewehr kurze Reichweite). Initially this was to be fielded in small numbers with the Kommando Spezialkräfte (KSK) und Feldjäger units but appears to have subsequently become a larger program with the option to procure up to 500 G210 rifles.
