I call shenanigans on that one as I have a few buddies who've done that sort of thing. You have to understand that each sniper element is a two man team consisting of the shooter and the spotter. The spotter is armed as well, and it's a good bet that between the two of them there is at least one M4/M16/AK47/assault rifle, and more than likely a handgun or two. Also, best of luck trying to get close to them as you most likely aren't going to be able to see them before they can kill you. The gist of what I'm saying is, don't mess with the dudes who go downrange as they can kill you close as well as far.
