As the main advantage of the weapon, the compilers of the rating call its accuracy, since the PC is capable of hitting the target with high accuracy at a distance of up to 800 m.
The second and third positions in the ranking were taken by the American M16 rifle, as well as the M240 machine gun, respectively.
