It's good to see that my beloved South Africa is in safe hands after independence.

While i was on holiday a couple of weeks ago, one of the resort activities was air rifle shooting.
On one of the sessions one of the German guests was shooting the air rifle exactly how that guy was shooting the Galil.
He seemed to have both hands and eyes working, so not sure what the point was..

People do some strange things with guns.... I've seen a handful of people when given a rifle for the first time, put the pistol grip of the stock on their shoulder like an RPG

Clearly the shooter has a viable excuse - inexperience. What was the instructor's excuse for letting him continue uncorrected?

Viral video making?
South Africans are funny though, some of them have been shooting since they were in short pants and can't fathom how anybody can get to adulthood without acquiring certain skills.

Clearly, he is right handed, and left eye dominant..
I claim no real ability, but if his instructor cannot see that, he has no place teaching.

R5 is a great rifle. I can at least say I can shoot that one well, in semi or auto.
