Insurgent sniper pick up kit scope sight modelling

When youre playing insurgents, you tell yourself : Nice, pick up SNIPER RIFLE (mosin-nagant i think). You pick it up, sight some ennemy raise youre scope and the... total deception, everything is crooked/made with paint.
Is there a way to change that in a futur release?

It's supposed to be like that to represent the wear and tear of a decades old rifle.

Mosin Nagant is the oldest weapon in PR... that's why the scope looks this way

Mosin-Nagant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

i know, but you can still get pretty decent scopes, you can detach the old scope and replace it by a new one that might not even be design for that rifle.

If it's not designed for that rifle, it's not calibrated for that rifle.

A scope is not just a big magnifying glass sitting on the rifle. It's specially aligned so that when you shoot on the reticule, you will hit.

Mosin apparently dates back to the 19th century before the communist revolution. I like the weapon personally but the SVD is superior really.

Maybe the weapons should be vice versa for sniper/dmr, except the SVD as a semi auto is more suited to a shorter range engagement so actually I will agree with the devs on that choice
