For Saladin, the workday didn't end when they got back to base after the mission he had just volunteered for. Instead of joining everyone else for drinks, he had gone straight to the armory and donned his leather apron as he began checking the pile of weapons that were turned in for more than their usual cleanings.

An hour later, having inspected the firearms that had been turned into the armory (including one pistol that one of the mercs noted that the slide wasn't as smooth he would have like), he set about on his own weaponry, in particular the Mosin-Nagant he primarily used.

When the BMP fired at his position, the resulting jolt threw his sights out of alignment, but he was almost sure that there certainly would be more damage or malfunctions that he was not able to detect in the heat of battle. Sure enough, there was a bit more damage-- The front sight assembly was slightly crooked. Aside from that and the off-zero scope, however, that was all that was wrong with the weapon. Saladin was understandably impressed-- either this rifle was a lucky charm, or it really was always this robust.
