Mosin vs. SKS?

[sumusiko 30]

I use mosin for everything, close range and long range. I've killed 3 people in close range (20m away ) with mosin and they knew my position. It's all about having a good aim , if you do then Mosin is the best as 90% of the times its a 1 hit kill.

PS: I was using LRS on the mosin at 20m away.

I use a camo Mosin with a long range scope for sniping and an M4 for the "up close and personal" meetings with any poor f@cker that tries to ruin my day

u can covert an M4 for sniping but its not that good for shots over 500m

Being a sniper at heart, I love the Mosin.

 

As far as which is better, it's all about positioning.

M4 doesn't have the Mosin's punch to kill some1 at long range

I carry a mosin with a LRS. I also carry a sawed off shotgun with 4 snap loaders. Comes in handy alot. Also carry a magnum for shooting people in the legs

In real life there would be 0 I mean 0 situations where someone would rather have a mosin over an SKS or m4.

Both the mosin and the m4 are more accurate, ammo is more available, and far more maneuverable.

sawed off is good for a CQC inside a building on street shoot out not so much magnum on the over hand has a good punch and can bring a player down with a headshot if u r lucky or he stays still u can approach an armed player since the side arms dont show on you the moment u are close to him and u have in in sight pull up the magnum and cap him

A scope doesn't extend the gun's range at all. What it does is extend the shooter's range.

 

And I doubt someone can reliably hit a man sized target at 500m with iron sights, IRL or ingame. At least without very significant training, practice and a good gun rest.

Reliably hitting a target at 500m out with iron sights is actually very easy. I have done it with two variations of the m16 and numerous other rifles. It doesn't take that much training at all.
