Default "American Sniper"

Harry I wish you well at achieving your goal.

I thought a sniper had an objective under orders to fulfill by destroying selected targets to save and protect the lives of fellow service personnel or civilians. I know personally 2 snipers who did their job and returned to civilian life. Neither turned into serial killers once back in " the world"

A serial killer is nothing more than a mirderer who is driven by their own twisted fantasies.

Do you know of many snipers who went on killing sprees after their military service was finished? you might try googling to see if you can find any because I haven't been able to.

'Serial killer?" Huh... Harry I thought it was about a highly trained soldier doing his job.

Btw, I hit small targets with a vintage ww1 issue half worn out British battle rifle at 200 yd with v iron sights


Snipers who are successful fit the definition of serial killer.

As I stated, I don't have a place to shoot at 200 yards.

With "iron sights" at 100 yards, though, I can consistently hit clay
pigeons with my AR rifle. But my goal is to shoot 1" groups at that
distance, and to do that I need "eye assistance" ")

I consistently shoot 2" to 3" groups with iron sights with my .357
revolver at 25 yards, and 2" groups with iron sights with my lever
action rifle at 50 yards. I've got a scope on my AR 15/22 and shoot very
tight groups at 50 and 100 yards, the latter especially with the
built-in BDC on the scope. When I get my .22LR Ruger pistol back
together and I get used to the new trigger and other stuff in it, I'll
see how good I can do with it.


Now *that* is downright funny.

"The Hurt Locker" is a much better movie, and doesn't glorify a psychopath.

Harry's quite the pacifist unless the terrorists are in his back yard
or threatening Tel Aviv.
