Mosin Nagant in action in Syria

[mardig88]

I was reading the news about Syria and stumbled upon this photo that shows a rebel using a Mosin Nagant with a huge scope..

Ya a rebel sniping civilians...

Some Russian spetsnaz still use them as well. Why reinvent the wheel?

Bubba doesn't exist in a war zone.

With the scope that high, I think a beard weld is the best you can hope for.

Bet it's an NCSTAR scope. They seem to use those a lot over there.

The Chinese are trolling the rebels.

"AHAH YES HERE IS YOUR SHINY NEW WEAPON WITH HARMONOUS PEOPLE'S SCOPE FROM NC OF STAR. IT IS OF MUCH WORK WE PROMISE!"

It would be nice to get a closeup on the gun he's using. The scope, the mounts. Also what year the rifle is.

I bet it works just fine. How many kills you each of you guys have?

My blackfly killcount is way over 300! I was just being facetious. But seriously, it could well be an NCSTAR scope - I've seen those 'rebels' using them on FAL's and even one of those Chinese HS-50 looking things. It pains me. At least the Steyr SSG69's they have generally come with decent optics on them. Not that I really want these people armed with anything, but still.

Stripes and cammo? Conflict zone fashion faux-pas!
