Blackwater

[zeep]

Just another step to fascism i've heard Naomi Wolf say. The Blackwater private army. Combined IQ of the mercenaries can't be that high. Doesn't need to be anyway. Just point and shoot. "It's like a turkey shoot out here!"

I feel for these mercenaries. Most are veterans who can't readjust to life back home. And when they die, their family gets a short letter saying they died and nothing else. Sometimes no body and blackwater refuses to do anything about it citing the contract the soldiers signed when they left.

The families are trying to sue to find out what happened to their family members but since blackwater is protected by powerful people it's not going anywhere.

luckily those svd sniper rifles arent that accurate over longer distances
its more a harrasment weapon in my opinion.

yo zeepster a talented sniper is usually one that uses his/her brains to get a firing solution over long distances
you have to consider a lot of factors like

distance
ammo you are using
windspeed at your spot
windspeed over the target
moister in the air
thin air at high altitudes
the target itself, stationary/moving
curvature of the earth over very long distances

thats alot of ifs between a hit or a miss

eh

the svd is a designated marksman rifle.

Comparing it to a M24 or whatever is pointless.
