Yeah, I remember them. It seemed like a pretty good idea to me. I would have liked to have had the opportunity to try one out. As CB suggests, using one in public would be an act of lunacy these days.

I seem to remember the Photosniper was designed for military use and that it's as tough as an AK47.

I do remember them, but I have not seen one "live". I remember reading that the optic wasn't great. My dad's Zenit had a dinted/chipped lens at the edge, but the pictures didn't show a fault. I suspect that birdwatchers and secret police in Eastern Europe used it a lot, it would be interesting to see some of these pictures
