So many haters! It's common to mount the scope backwards for close range shooting so that the target doesn't look so big and scary.

I don't know if I should laugh, or cry.
Just goes to show, education and common sense don't run parallel.

If you click the pic at the top and then zoom in on it, you can easily see that the "backwards" scope is photoshopped on the image. There's no scope rings on the scope, and you can see the real scope on the rifle behind the photoshopped scope.

Could be someone photoshopped it!! But based upon a Woke Military and the Navy having ship driving problems in the past......probably the real deal there!!

Pugs, there are legions of posters with their scopes on backwards.

Yes but luckily he has a guy behind him holding him up.
Why would a photo like that even be let out, or even taken? For that matter the weapon used that way?

The scope isn't backwards, he just needs to turn the rifle around.
