I was just saying that the M110 is versatile enough in it's own right that if necessary I could shoot someone across the street, where as a sniper rifle, like one of those .50 cal beasts, would be clunky and hard to use.
And Sifter, I never said anything about sniping without the scope. I said take it off to fire across a street. That's, like, 20-30 feet away, handgun range. Of course I'm not sniping, I'm just saying that a scope would be a bit of a hindrance in that close quarters, probably. :P
