When I see all these pics, I realize something that no one in the SAF realizes or for the matter, many other armed forces. In these pics, Russians use AK-47s or their derivatives and so do Ukrainians, even the women. Do you notice anything about the AKs? They don't have a scope, nor even a picatinney rail to mount anything. Yet, these soldiers and AKs will kill you dead from 400m over iron sights!! Its a simple killing machine. Not like the SAF wayang shit with a 1.5X scope reliant on battery power in its SAR-21. The lao cheow peng kia in the 70s and 80s with AR-15 and M-16, using just iron sights are the real soldiers. If you train a soldier to shoot up to 400m, without a scope, you got something there.
