I've heard that Real men use Iron...Until your a real old man, as I at 60, then a little glass does help. One to look through and hit your target & one to take a shot from when ya did good. LOL

I have also read that he did not use a scope as he could keep his head down with the open sights.

It seems he did use iron sights to great effect first on deer, and later on Russians. He racked up a higher kill count than smallpox.
