Russia - threadbanned users in OP

If they are still shooting at you, they clearly aren't surrendering, it's a trap.

Usually when one country invades another without warning or provocation, it's the invading country that commits the vast bulk of the war crimes.

It would be a bit like accusing the Polish army of 'war crimes' against Nazis in September 1939 after they were brutally invaded by their neighbours and desperately attempting to defend their homeland.

Should be noted too that the Russian terrorist / mafia state has never actually declared war on Ukraine.

Fascinating to hear even Olga Skabayeva discussing the prospect of Russia losing and the regime ringleaders and propagandists being put on trial at The Hague:

This was pointed out to said poster already a few days back, which they promptly ignored and said the same thing again likely as they have no backbone of their own.

They will likely spend another few days away and be back again with something similar (though they have already plumbed the depths of conspiracy theory loons so it's tough to know where they'll go next, death by mod most likely).

Of course, they have the chance to engage on the whataboutery rather than being either a putinbot or a WUM, it could be either.

Actually sights on an ak 74 are adjustments from 100 -1000m , most military forces train to shoot out to 600m +

You wouldn't be using a dmr with a acog ,you would want to a variable optic ,the acog is only 4x magnification, great for something like an M4 or similar assault rifle for short to midrange targets ,but for 600 m + you want something with better zoom and windage adjustments ,but for best part of a century military forces have trained to shoot 800m + with iron sights from 5.56 /223 to 7.62 /308 ,

Barrel length and type of bullets come into play a standard short barrel m4 you might struggle to reach out and touch someone compared to someone with an 7.62 AK , which aren't a very accurate rifle in the first place, mainly due to the poor positioning of the iron sights (to close to each other) for proper accuracy but with the right training and practice you can learn to be a effective shooter ,

Training is key

My father was a reasonably good shot. One time he bullseyed the target at 1000 yds, likely using the same Parker Hale peep sight I sold a few years ago. This wasn't uncommon for him, which is why everyone was puzzled when his second shot seemingly missed the target completely and why they kept looking. Then someone noticed that the original hole in the centre of the target was ever so slightly ovaled and so it turned out that the second bullet had actually gone through the hole made by the previous one. I believe he always used a borrowed Lee Enfield .303 from stores.

1000 yds is about 914m, so using WW2 vintage equipment, it is quite possible someone could hit those Orcs at 1200m, which is only one third the maximum range.

Russia can't claim self defence when it goes around sucker punching people, then gets its butt kicked in response.

That is objectively not true, claims about Ukraine are made and challenged daily and misinformation pointed out quickly.

That you only work with misinformation is on you and your questionable moral centre. Try and engage and prove me wrong but you're not off to a good start with the Wallace/Daly impression.

I bet within a few posts you'd be claiming to want peace with russia but failing to outline what terms russia should accept or trying to blame NATO/USA for having the temerity to exist and protect each other from exactly Ukraine's current situation, because you know it will expose your position. I'd be happy to lose that bet.
