Article pointing how not to hold a rifle
I recently came across an article about a Manga(Japanese comics) author became the butt of much ridicule for the imaginative firing stance one of her characters took up – she has apparently acquired an airsoft rifle in part to prove detractors wrong.
This is the article Also to point out another nitpick is that the drawing is shown that the rifle has 2 different set of scopes when it has nothing that indicates an optic other than iron sights. The problem is that she bought the wrong Airsoft replica to prove her cause. Which is this PSG-1 when her character was holding what looks like an M4. What she said about this rifle was: "It’s so huge and heavy there’s no way I can fire it without putting it over my shoulder! Come on, I was right all along!” “I can’t look through the scope and reach the trigger with my arm at the same time! What the hell. Are you saying a 150cm woman can’t become a sniper?” she complains. My response is that this is a very specialized rifle and designed to be fired from a sniper position, prone, sitting or otherwise not like other combat stances. It needs a bipod to help steady the aim. It's a rifle, not a rocket launcher. The main solution to saying because the stock is too uncomfortable or unlikely to be too long to accommodate short arms, would be to retract the stock. A PSG-1 style rifle could swap out stocks and the M4 her character held could just retract the stock shorter. If you fired an M4 style rifle without properly holding it, the recoil would smack the thing against your face since you'd be leaning close to the iron sight. But it looks like in the end, she finally got the right way to hold a rifle...sorta. I see almost 2 fingers over the trigger

That's an adult?
I thought it was a child at first glance. |

Ditto. Japanese people are quite a bit shorter than the average person of European descent

She looks 12-16, IMHO. The skirt helps make yer look younger than she is. If we could see her face, we'd probably think she was a little older

Why does her face look like it's made of plastic?

The Japanese are weird. They sell panties in vending machines (at least according to Mark Whitacre).
