I have seen video, supposedly from the Donbas, showing some troops with Mosin-Nagant rifles. The ones I saw all had the 3x optical sights of WWII vintgage.

A reasonably capable WWII sniper rifle.

My 30-06 Springfield Armory rifle circa 1930’s happens to be the best rifle ever made for a standing army.

That’s the set-up that “starred” in Sniper 2, though it was hilariously refered to as a Mauser ‘98.
