Farmer: no more than 5 feet tall + alone in the woods + rifle = total and complete pwnage.

Nicknamed "White Death", he used a Mosin-Nagant, bolt action and iron sights which led to over 500 confirmed sniping kills.

Rambo aint got sh*t on Häyhä.

In times of trouble, it is often the quiet men that rise to greatness.

Too bad the authour disrespects the memory of the man by writing in such a lame and needlessly vulgar fashion.

Great story though.

This is what they fear

This is the core tenet of Leaderless Ressitence.

A 1000 Simo Haya's can bring the organ of tryanny to a screeching halt.

You cant pay blackboots enough FRN's if it is a possibilty that they may die by a faceless enigma from the shadows.

He preferred to use iron sights rather than telescopic sights to present a smaller target (the sniper must raise his head higher when using a telescopic sight), to prevent visibility risks (a telescopic sight's glass can fog up easily), and aid concealment (sunlight glare in telescopic sight lenses can reveal a sniper's position). Another tactic used by Häyhä was to compact the snow in front of him so that the shot would not disturb the snow and reveal his position. He also kept snow in his mouth so that when breathing the steam would not give him away.

Maybe that's why they are installing video surveillance cameras and satelite tracking devices everywhere.

Do you plan to be the repair tech to reconnect those wires when the service gets cut???

Not me........not you........not anybody with a lick of sense

That will become a "blind spot zone"
