What is a "Sniper rifle"?
I saw and read the news calling scoped ruger 10/22 a "Sniper rifle". Also can someone explain why IDF would use a .22 against protestors instead of rubber shotgun slugs?

Afaik they shoot twords the ground and let the spalling hit people's legs/ feet
The IDF has a history of using suppressed .22s to take out dogs and demonstrators as a "less lethal" weapon.
If it has a scope the media will call it a sniper rifle
A rifle that a sniper uses. An Uzi with a magnified sight would be a sniper rifle if used by one, its just that no sniper would because its inappropriate for the task.
>can someone explain why IDF would use a .22 against protestors instead of rubber shotgun slugs?
So they can kill and claim it was accidental.
Because Jews aren’t people like you and me and if anyone should die from these very much lethal “non-lethal” suppression methods they won’t care. And neither will you.
they shoot people in the ass also so as to not kill them just cause a lot of pain. Get's the point across better than a rubber slug
Jews don't care about the lives of Muslims
Because the .22 bounces around inside the skull, a must when shooting Muslims and blacks because the brain is so small.
>Also can someone explain why IDF would use a .22 against protestors instead of rubber shotgun slugs?
.22 is a lot cheaper to buy than rubber slugs
because the protesters are Muslims so why not
A sniper rifle, technically speaking, is a precision rifle capable of shooting sub MOA at 100+ yards.
>.22 is now a "sniper rifle"
I could just scream
Israelis use .22 rifles to "incapacitate" riot leaders, armed people within crowds and so on. Firing a high powered rifle into a crowd is bad press and might make the mob angrier whereas silenced .22 gunfire is probably difficult to notice, unless you are the one who gets hit
IDF also classifies the 10/22 as a 'less than lethal' weapon for protests.
Don't be a dick.
same problem as race cars
any car can be raced
but some are or become more suited to the task
I think this is relevant more than ever now
They use it because the .22 caliber bullet will ricochet around the crowd, wounding or killing far more per shot than anything less than a 35mm cannon. The .22 sets up its own crossfire, thus making it the perfect round for riot suppression.
Ahh the hush puppy.
Gas the kikes.
Ive heard it makes a good counter sniper rifle for mid range urban ops. The idea is its light enough to rapidly deploy in tight spaces, climbing over walls, ladders etc to get to an angle of the hide. Most urban snipers will relocate once found. A couple .22 rounds their way makes them pack up. Modern tactics involve just levelling the building now.
Cant remenber which counter sniper guide was promoting this tactic. I remember imagining Jow Forums ripping it a new one while reading. Lol.
There is no sniper rifle only a snipers rifle.
Because a kike saves money we're it can
I like that. Mind if I steal it?
>black hands ctrl c anyways
A rifle used by a sniper is a sniper rifle.
That's pretty gud user.
Stole it from hickock.
They used to use it to hit agitators in a groups. They found it was too deadly and so now they use those for guards and watchdogs.
Like we didn't all see this coming. This will be the next big thing is "assault weapons" ever get b&
I can't be anything else, I've tried.
Sauce?
This. A Browning M2 with a scope was used as a sniper rifle despite being a machine gun.
A salt weapon?
Like, a weapon made out of salt?
this is the Jow Forums, the medium itself encourages dickery
well they're like never used in mass shootings, for whatever reason
whitman used one, washington sniper used one, but i can't remember hearing about anything sniper rifle associated happening in the last years that would have been subject to the whole gun control debate
don't start fear mongering, they won't "come for your hunting rifle" without an actual excuse like more and more school shooters using them
do you even think before you post
he looks like he's seen some shit.
sometimes i do. why don't you explain what you mean
he actually does not really look like that desu
They hit little sand nigger's legs with them. Semetics are disgusting piles of shit.
>moa
>distance
what?
This is some high level autism
He looks like he smeared a mustache on his face.
>don't start fear mongering, they won't "come for your hunting rifle"
They did just that in dozens of countries across the world. They can't do it YET but they will if you allow them to get semi autos.
You sound like a liberal traitor. T-they won't take all your guns user! Well here in Europe they are going even after air rifles
first educate yourself about the name of the perpetrator of the incident you just linked, and then read my first post again, smartass
i also said "within the last years"
do you even think before you post?
>What is a "Sniper rifle"?
any rifle used by a sniper in a sniping role is the correct answer. So a percussion musket through to any modern arm
how can you be on Jow Forums and not know what the name charles whitman stands for, are you new?
They say you are what you eat.
The suppressor in OP's pic related looks like it was made from a Maglite (6- D Cell)
You're right that MOA is simply an angle. But Consider a whiffle ball cannon.
Your whiffle ball gun can hit sub MOA at one yard. Your whiffle ball gun cannot hit anything further than 15 yards because the ballistics don't allow it.
first off, what do you think people are going to commit mass murder with if, hypothetically, they couldn't get their hands on so called assault weapons?
Austin clock tower shooting
Does that include my .17?
I bet you like Mondays, you prick.

Elementary school mass shooting with a 10/22
I read an article a while back, I'll see if I can find it and they've managed to kill quite a few people with their 10/22's
Think this was it ruger1022.com
>why IDF would use a .22 against protestors instead of rubber shotgun slugs?
>rubber shotgun slugs
$2 a round.
>.22lr
3.6 cents a round
>IDF
Hmmm....I wonder.....
