March 2004 - A sniper peers through his sight at potential enemy targets moving along the rooftop of a nearby building during a search mission in Al Fallujah, Iraq. The paratrooper is assigned to the 82nd Airborne Division's 1st Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment. U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Charles B. Johnson.

| So why is his trigger finger on a "safe mode"? If a terrorist suddenly pops out of the top of the building and just gives this sniper and his team a burst of automatic fire, does he have second thoughts of harming that enemy? lol | ||

| stephenax... That's where your finger belongs until you're ready to shoot. I suspect that your finger is someplace else... |

| Not so much a question of the placement of his trigger finger, but as to why his gun is on "safe"? (If he's truly looking for possible targets). ;) | ||

| Its also worth noting that those two soldiers in the background don't seem too worried about enemy fire. | ||

| Um, publicity photo? and it's not like the safety takes more than a half-second to disengage with the trigger finger |

| Given ROE, probably has to keep safety on. Leupold Scopes, ARMS Mounts, both HUGE supporters of the troops. www.AmericanSnipers.org |

| One should always keep one's finger off the trigger until the instant the decision is made to fire. It is one of the most basic of the essential gun-handling rules. To do otherwise indicates either recklessness or poor arms handling training. | ||
