Never heard of it.
Shooting an AK-47 at something beyond 100 yds? Actually, it seems to me like the reporter didn't quite understand what he was reading or being told. Or she might have said long range sniper training (could have been her uncle showed her to shoot a scoped rifle when she was a teenager) and the reporter threw in the assault rifle to spice up the sentence.
That said, I am quite sure this woman is a nut case and not at all as knowledegeable as she says she is. However, the enemy could use people like that to cause us problems in the future we ever did get into a war with say, Iran, or perhaps China...
