i was waiting to see how long it would take someone to say that
i agree

I'll bet she hasn't had a shower in a few days/week.

Still cute?

of course! Showers are easily had. Ugliness not so.

She's likely a designated marksman - not Hathcock type sniper as the stupid media labeled her as.

Definitely.

Heck, I haven't had a shower in a few days. 

Sniper-wise, I have no combat experience other than paintball and nerf guns, but I would bet the bright blue head scarf didn't help.

A little bit on her rifle, it's a Designated Marksman rifle vs. Sniper rifle it chambered in 7.62x54r : http://www.designatedmarksman.net/iraq_alkadesiah.html

To the comments about the accuracy of the "AK" style DM rifles: the vid is from two years ago and Molot is now under sanctions and its products are not currently importable presently.

I wonder how many soldiers survive such a thing but just don't know if because there is no wall next to them to show how close it was.

Gotta say,  she needs to work on her sniper tactics. The gun is sticking way out it appears and she is wearing a blue hat!

Your extensive military experience gives you this insight to comment?

I am impressed video games are that instructive.

I didn't know one needed military experience to figure out that a bright blue hat doesn't lend well to hiding.

You should see how detailed current games are!

Glad that someone posted the MAC and the Forgotten Weapons videos, but have you seen the InRange video of the SVD vs the WA2000?. PSL is basically a enlarged SVD/derivative which are generally intended as a designated marksman's rifle.

I noticed that most youtube comments are criticizing her terrible stance and recoil control and sticking the barrel out but I'd say in her defense that the ledge is really high and too awkward to gain recoil stability and resting the rifle more towards the muzzle would also be awkward on that very high ledge, and that it was probably the only place where she could see her target zone as a marksman otherwise she would've chosen a more suitable position.
Plus the rubber eyepiece of the scope is there for a reason.
