[fishgutzy]

This is a one fearless young lady. After sheet takes her shot, a bullet hits the wall near her head. She starts laughing.
Note the "combat tactical sandals" she has on

Royal blue headgear might be a contributing factor in being seen, too.

That said, that area of the world definitely produces tough people that don't whine about "their" pronoun or who bakes or doesn't bake a cake or wearing giant vagina costumes because "oppression."

 

[fishgutzy]

For those in the know, am I correct in guessing that is a .308 /7.62x51 she is firing?

 

[Tim]

Sounds weird to say....but damn, that woman has balls AND beauty.

 

[Zedhound]

I wish we could let her emigrate here and deport a whiney ass liberal woman

Maybe she was hoping to masquerade as a UN peace keeper.

Im thinking 7.62x54 , since it looks to be some type of drugunov set up ,

Think it's a Drag ... 7.62x54R is standard but it is available in other calibers.

She slapped her thigh in surprise....where one of us would say "You're F-ing kidding me" or "Holy S----" or something....she looked at the bullet hole and "Smack!" let out the nerves and adrenaline that way. Pretty cool customer.

When you live in that day in and day out, I guess you get used to it?

 

[Mike Overlay]

a lucky miss.

 

[Ikarus1]

she might want to invest in some Kevlar headgear. and maybe some eye pro.

 

[Jayne]

Did she make her shot?

 

[IrishCannon]

total babe

 

[IrishCannon]

how the hell are her teeth so perfect?

 

[Chuckman]

Brave, but no SA. Daylight, her head profiling in the window, the rifle sticking out. But brave.

So you dont have to visit that website...








They live in a different world than us, what those folks have gotten used to as normal life is, to most here in America, nuts.
But we also dont have a warzone in our streets

Can someone translate? I didn't understand a word she said. If someone had just been missed by a sniper I think I would like to hear what they said.

Rough translation: "Holy f***, that was close! Did you see that, Sufaya? I crapped myself!"

Damn. That lady got some nads! Lol

 

[Downeast]

Could it have been a ricochet?

 

[fishgutzy]

Play the video at 0.25 speed. Someone else noticed something. The shot appears to come from the direction of the camera. Notice that the crater in the wall has the bullet hole dead center. A shot from outside would live a lined crater, correct?
Might be a training video.

Maybe it was Syrian cops shooting at dogs?

 

[Tailhunter]

She is probably tougher than 80% of our male population.

Single frame.

 

[trcubed]

The divot straight above the scope is from outside. Can't tell about the other one.

Frame by frame it could definitely have come from outside, at a more acute angle than the direction she was shooting. Head on a swivel.

Not every country puts refined sugar and corn syrup in every foodstuff. Took me years to get used to how sweet everything is here.

 

[Majicmike]

I'd hit it

 

[demondeacon]

I would adopt her

Okay, not busting on you, but how does one reconcile the, er, British condition that every dentist in America has humorously posted in their offices?

 

[Cowboy]

Anyone notice what looks like a hole in her head scarf?

Negan said it best:

 

[fieldgrade]

Her opponent got their shot off well before she did.

shit... a typical male problem

Maybe she didn't miss.

We genuinely don't give as many shits about shiny straight teeth as Americans.

Also tea stains like mad, lots of heavy smokers and big drinkers who don't generally go to the dentist until it hurts.
