But I still want to know the details on the Armalite.

I want to know how he managed that shot with iron sights, right after he turned back from threatening the cop.

I don't see a scope on that rifle. Am I wrong?

Assuming we’re seeing pics of the actual rifle, yeah it has open sights, no scope. A scope would in no way be necessary to make a person-sized head shot at 130 yards, or so. The front yard at my shop is something over 150 yards wide/long. I kill varmits almost daily all over the space with whatever rifle is within reach, scope/no-scope, whatever. Squirrel-sized varmits are maybe 1/4 the size of a human head.

And it’s worth noting that our GI’s initially qualify on a 24” bull, with open sights, at 300 yards. The center of the bull is a head-sized black ball.

So, you’re good-—not to worry-—about that, anyway.

He had a reflex sight on it. No magnification.
