must have spent a lot of time practicing how to load that damn thing.

I bet if you look around a little you could find the Soviet training
manual and the procedure they were taught. You were in the army, you
know they drilled this until they could do it in their sleep.

It's not that hard with the regular infantry version. A stripper makes the job pretty
easy. The sniper version has the scope mounted so that the stripper won't work. So
it's one round at a time, with the scope in the way. I suppose the snipers weren't in
a big hurry to reload. One or two rounds and they were out of there. The sniper
version is a much smoother operating gun though.

I can see why the "sniper" version would be your preference.

I'm glad you can.
