Rifle design
The barrel with a receiver consists of a box, trunk, pillars, front sight and slot-type flame arrester. At the muzzle of the barrel is attached with a pin on the front sight, when moving the rifle, it is in the folded state. The barrel with the box is connected by a pressing method and fixed with two pins. Rifle barrel - free-floating type. The bolt consists of a battle larva, a handle with a bolt, springs of a drummer, a hammer, a spring bar, a lock and an insert. Locking the rifle takes place with a turn of the bolt, on which there are 2 battles. The slightly curved shutter handle after locking is located on top of the trigger guard. The rifle has a new bed with a shortened forearm, butt with a pistol neck. Butt has a regulation in length and height. Handguard has a guide, which set the bipod. The percussion mechanism is located in the gate, the platoon of the projectile is unlocked by the stem channel, the protruding tail of the projectile plays the role of the cocking pointer.

Used in special forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

7.62mm MTZ-116 single-shot sports rifle.
The MTs-116M sniper rifle was developed in 1997 in the Tula Central Design Bureau of Sports and Hunting Weapons (TsKIB SOO, now a branch of the Instrument Design Bureau) based on the 7.62 mm MT-116 single-shot rifle, which was successfully used by Russian shooters in international shooting competitions at 100 and 300 meters. Currently, the MTs-116M sniper rifle is produced in Tula in a limited edition on special orders and is in service with a number of special forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB and the FSO of Russia.
When using high-quality cartridges ("Extra"), the rifle provides accuracy better than SVD - less than 1 MOA (angular minute), the declared effective firing range is 800 meters.

It will not be possible to buy this weapon for personal use, since it has not been included in the cadastre of civil weapons. She was banned from civilian circulation after the adoption of the MC-116M. Type, like a battle.

Buy this weapon for personal use will not succeed,

For personal use, you are not limited only to domestic.
Buy a shtavansky sniper remington 700. On sale freely. 2 times more accurate, 2 times easier, 2 times cheaper.

Unfortunately, Russia must be recognized in this regard, while Pindos noticeably lags behind.
They love to ban everything from us.

you can buy the advertised "hunting" sniper rifle Steyr-Mannlicher SSG 08, though you have to pay for it ...

or this one - Sako TRG-22

[zulu_1]

Better SVD accuracy. This is a boltovik and a priori it should be better in accuracy - at least 1MOA

This scumbag, the MTs-116M, generally a large part of the Russian hand-held small arms, got stuck in the era when M.T. Kalashnokov was still young ...

in what "shnyaga" can you specifically lead? And who is "Kalashnokov"

[VORON]

And what is this screw bolt better than other bolted ones? maybe it’s better in accuracy than SVD? Mosin’s rifle is also more accurate than SVD ... In general, it’s incorrect to compare bolt and semiautomatics. And what is this MTs-116M better than Sako TRG? while the MTs-116M has a box of wood and that its weight is 6,5 kg. versus 4,68 for Sako TRG and this is just a superficial comparison of shnyaga with an analogue made already from 1992 ... Who are you M.T. KalashnIkov you perfectly understood despite the typo, so do not turn on the fool ...

While our sniper weapons will be produced under the cartridge 7.62x54, you won’t get accuracy comparable to foreign models, the ammunition needs to be modernized or at least the tolerances in its manufacture and assembly should be reduced, this is one point.
Secondly, you can not compare these rifles without knowing the level of modern equipment and methods for making barrels.

God, how tired of these badly cut-off "sports-type" boxes, torn from a neighbor's fence, crookedly screwed to a rifle that was generally excellent for its time, Mosinka needs a global improvement and not cosmetic gadgets "like we look as a result of a 15-year-old binge that all KB have decided." So I worked out and tested in "illegal" conditions a bullpup layout that allows you to reduce the dimensions of an infantry (dragoon) rifle to the size of a carbine while maintaining all ballistic parameters, and thanks to several improvement blocks, you can get a practical rate of fire no worse than SVD with greater simplicity.
