Hey Hugo, are Dragunov’s effective against cruise missiles?

They ain’t anywhere near the best in the world, but I’d love to have a Dragunov of my very own. To a collector, they’re an object of desire. To a shooter, the average Remchester with a cheap scope is more accurate.

5,000 rifles. BFD. Of little or no effective use against any U.S. invasion force if one were ever contemplated. Very useful and effective, though, against any of his political opponents there in Venezuela.

Bet the countries on his border’s are thrilled with his decision. Here comes another looney dictator headed for big trouble.

5,000?
I bet there are more rifles in the Fort Worth, TX subdivision where I live.

Me want. Russian made, not Chinese. Unfortunately, slick willie screwed that pooch (along with a lot of other pooches).

Careful, Bell is just a few miles from here.

I meant the ones Hugo is buying from Russia, the ones that did so well in Afghanistan. Aww...to be a kid in a candy-store.

Question is, are they going to be getting the 7N14 to go with it? I would guess not...and in any case, it’s not exactly a true sniper rifle in the modern sense.

He does seem to be attempting to cut his own throat. Too bad he’s such a dull knife.

Can you shoot down a B-2 bomber flying at 70,000 feet with one?
No, I didnt think so.
