Iron sights only
No scope is a video game term, especially in first-person shooters, for killing an opponent with a sniper rifle without using the scope to aim—relying on reflexes and luck rather than precision.
The term works as both noun and verb: He hit a no scope from across the map, I can't believe you no scoped that guy.
Often used to emphasize skill or mock an easy kill.
