Dude with the machine gun has a bipod support on it, there's a very nice mound just where the filming person is standing, yet he's shooting free-hand.

WHAT IN THE FUCK

Why not start hanging out shotguns? It's a lot easier to hit a flying target with a shotgun spread here lol.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's the Russians.

In WWII they were handing out rifles to every second guy and ammo to every second.

I could just see it...

Rifle Person: Hey give me that ammo they gave you so we can kill some people

Ammo Person: Once I give you the ammo.... you don't mean kill me right?

Rifle Person: ...

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think there may have been like a pre-loaded 5-8 shot or something mag in those, but since they didn't expect the person to last until reload, they gave every second person a rifle so like "wait until he cops it/runs out of ammo and cops it" and then takeover and reload.

I think there's like at least a bit of this in some 90's early 00''s war movies when we weren't as mad at Russia. Maybe like.. "Enemy at the gates"...?

I can't recall. I checkers yeah it's in that movie. Also Jude Law, so, despite current political atmosphere, it's a good watch.

I think that's even more morbid than my take lol.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

would a shotgun even be effective at that range? probably worried about getting too close as well.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Depends on how much damage that drone could take and what it's made out of.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Haha. Gotta love how they're shouting. :')
