American snipers armed with German rifles

72
According to the portal armyrecognition.com, as part of the AUSA 2017 exhibition in Washington, Heckler & Koch showed the M110A1 rifle.

M110 rifles manufactured by the American company Knight's Armament Company entered service with the US Army in 2008 year. Soldiers who used M110 under combat conditions complained about the poor accuracy, unreliability and fragility of M110 (after 500 shots, the accuracy of fire dropped sharply). Therefore, in 2014, the US Department of Defense announced a new tender for the purchase of compact .308 Win (7,62 × 51 NATO) caliber compact semi-automatic sniper rifles, which can be effectively used to shoot from distances to 1000 m, and will also be lighter and more compact than the M110.

In April 2016, the US Department of Defense named the German company Heckler & Koch the winner of the CSASS tender. To replace the M110, the army adopted an upgraded version of the HK G28 rifle, designated M110A1.



The Heckler & Koch G28 sniper rifle was developed by order of the Bundeswehr. The G28 employs a short-stroke, butterfly valve, gas-operated automation. The shooter can change the settings of the gas regulator, which makes it possible to effectively use the silencer. The G28 rifle is available in two versions: "standard" and "patrol", which differ from each other only in the basic set of accessories. The effective firing range is about 600 m at the chest target and about 800 m at the growth target. When firing a series of ten shots from a distance of 100 m, the maximum dispersion was 4,5 cm, which corresponds to 1,5 angular minutes.

The length of the G28 rifle is 965 – 1082 mm (varies due to the use of the telescopic butt), the barrel length is 420 mm. Weight weapons in the "standard" configuration is 5,8 kg, in the "patrol" - 5,15 kg. G28 has only semi-automatic mode of fire and can be equipped with 10- and 20-charging stores, reports "Warspot"

          If you specify, the sniper rifle, but not a sniper rifle. This is a rifle of high accuracy, gross production. And for this class of weapons, one of the most important indicators is the "injury resistance" IMHO
          What I mean? Weapons, during operation, are exposed to external shock loads (impacts and falls). If after that it retains the ability not only to shoot, but also to “hit”, then this is normal.

            There is even a separate term for this type of weapon - English. Designated Marksman Rifle, DMR
            - Marxman rifle.
            The Marxman rifle (Designated Marksman Rifle, DMR) is an infantry sniper (“Marxman”) weapon that occupies an intermediate position between conventional small arms and heavy, high-precision non-automatic sniper rifles with a longitudinally sliding, rotary bolt, under ammunition of increased power.

            Designed to solve the problems of fire support units in the offensive at small and medium distances. In Russia, the SVD rifle occupies this place in the small arms system of the Republic of Armenia. Another name, common, mainly in the European countries of NATO, is “tactical support weapon”.

            These rifles are more effective compared to assault rifles, due to the higher accuracy, accuracy and probability of hitting a typical target per unit of time, at ranges greater than the effective range of the machine gun (400-600 meters), but due to their low weight (4-5 kg ) unlike heavy large-caliber sniper rifles (8-12kg) for .338Lapua and 12.7x99 Browning / 12,7x108 DShK cartridges, designed for firing from equipped firing positions at long ranges (800 m and beyond), they allow you to quickly change the firing position, if necessary , to fire from hands, from unstable positions, on the move, supporting the fire of his unit.

            Usually equipped with bipods and a telescopic sight of low magnification (4-6x). Unlike counter-sniper rifles with a longitudinally sliding bolt, Marxman rifles are usually self-loading and have a large magazine capacity - 10, 20 or 30 rounds, depending on the type of rifle.

            That is, speaking in Russian - this is a semi-automatic rifle for high-precision shooting - SVD falls into this series of small arms, although it does not have a heavy barrel.

            The article deals specifically with the replacement of the not entirely successful M110 Marxman rifle.

            They called us: "attacking snipers." And they were with M14. And sometimes just with the M16, on which they put an optical sight, legs and a nozzle on the butt. They were required to knock out unarmored targets at distances of 400-700 m. They moved along with infantry and as part of fire support groups along with machine gunners.

          you speak for Germans or for whom? if the marriage at the stage reaches 100%, then the supplier or the one who does it is changing, it’s too expensive to pay for someone’s jambs.

            There were financial losses, but they met the deadline. And nothing. The company is still operating.

      Before writing nonsense:
      The Ministry of Defense buys two consignments of Austrian Glock pistols for the Senezh Special Forces, which performs top-secret military missions on direct instructions from the Minister of Defense.

      As the editor-in-chief of the Kalashnikov magazine Mikhail Degtyarev explained to the Izvestia newspaper, the Glok-17 pistols were needed by the special forces for trouble-free shooting, since Russian pistols are not yet reliable. M. Degtyarev said that spetsnaz fighters have many complaints about Yarygin’s pistol, which are explained by incomplete debugging of serial production of the model.

      One of the commandos confirmed that Yarygin’s pistol was not suitable for special missions - the jammed “Yarygin” was clutched in the hand of a soldier who had recently died in the North Caucasus. After that, it was decided to purchase Gloki. Special forces soldiers must be absolutely confident in their weapons. In the case of Glock, the quality and combat properties of the pistol are confirmed by the experience of successful operation at the FSB Special Purpose Center (Alpha and Vympel).

      This does not mean that Russia is "blown away" - a weapon for special forces, for the army should be consistent with the professionalism of its soldiers - the guys should be protected.

      Finally, the rifle entered the troops in 2008. The M110 rifle was used quite intensively in combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. As of today, it is known that the following complaints were received from the troops on the M110 model:

      Weapon Insecurity
      Poor spare parts supply
      Locking problems
      Poor quality control
      Lack of accuracy
      Low durability
      It was also reported that part of the rifles was disassembled to replenish spare parts for the remaining rifles. The barrel, according to users, there are not enough racks, accuracy was observed in firing 500 shots, which led to the replacement of the barrel.
      In 2016, the American army abandoned the M110, and now the marines and army special forces are looking for a replacement.

            Microwave, or what is her name, ICS, was developed on an initiative basis to replace the SVD in combat units. As far as I know, the Moscow Region is just about to replace the SVD with something more modern and more accurate. But judging by the fact that the microwave oven is relatively not expensive in production and the Kalashnikov concern is ready to put it in series with the Fas team, it is most likely it that will replace the SVD. Other domestic candidates such as Precision, Orsis, Lobaev’s rifles are either expensive, given the mass production for the army, or are complex. And therefore, I believe, it is the microwave that will go into the troops.

                It is clever to compare the rifle that was created in 63, (taking into account those requirements and threats) and the modern one that was created already in this century. By your logic, captain evidence, we can say that a rocket is better than a nucleus.

The Moscow Region declared that it was long overdue to replace the SVD and create a new combat sniper rifle, taking into account new realities and tasks. To date, only microwave is suitable for this role. Other candidates are either expensive or complicated, as I said. There will be state tests, and we'll talk there.

                  Are you really or just pretending to be? My comment was a response to the claim that 1,5 MOA is an indicator of the mediocrity of M110A1. And if the SVD is still in service, then this rifle can’t be called mediocre (in terms of accuracy).
                  About the need to replace the SVD, our Defense Ministry says hell knows how many years, but that's how it stood in service, and it costs. How did you get the idea that now something will change? Did the Minister of Defense personally tell you at the last friendly gatherings?

              Microwave, or what is her name, ICS, was developed on an initiative basis to replace the SVD in combat units. As far as I know, the Moscow Region is just about to replace the SVD with something more modern and more accurate.


              The SVD barrel has a length of 550 millimeters. The same parameter for microwave is 410 millimeters. Here, the defenders of the novelty have essentially nothing to cover - physics and ballistics cannot be got anywhere. No high-tech "radial pressing" can change this situation.

              The design of the new product raises many questions. In many ways, the “oak” Dragunov rifle allowed work with heavy contamination of the trigger mechanism and was very reliable and tenacious. The trigger mechanism suspended in the receiver requires close attention and care.

              Tests have not yet been carried out (factory only) - therefore, the microwave oven is a dark horse.

                During state tests, this rifle will be finalized. And I see no problems to extend the barrel from 410 mm to 500 mm, which will undoubtedly add accuracy to it.

          Well, according to the data claimed, the comparison is not in favor of the Germans
          The accuracy declared by the manufacturer when using sniper cartridges in both versions is no more than 30 mm per 100 meters (1 MOA).

      The main thing is to write what ammunition was shot ... 0.308 Win they have a special ammunition, which is just for accurate shooting, and the SVD is shot with the usual 7.62 / 54R of zinc, which goes for machine guns and everything else. If you shoot from SVD with special cartridges, then the accuracy increases greatly. I was told that from zinc, the cartridges differ even in weight up to 0,2 grams - this means that the bullet can weigh differently and the charge is different - this is where the accuracy comes from ... Again, the difference in approach is visible.

        Usually SNS or EXTRA are used for SVD, there were no complaints about Soviet-made cartridges, it’s another matter that SVD is generally a semiautomatic device and MOA is 2,7. but for example sn. rifle with a sliding bolt Sako TRG M10 0.3 MOA!

      I want to note to you a respected passport from SVD, and the article says that "... When shooting a series of ten shots from a distance of 100 m, the maximum dispersion was 4,5 cm, which corresponds to 1,5 angular minutes ..." I can notice that from SVD it’s quite possible to make the same series. And now, what's interesting "...

        You will feel the difference between piece bolted DXL-2 “Scalpel” DVL-10 M1 “Saboteur” - built on borrowed bolts / triggers and semi-automatic high-precision rifles with a weighted barrel, mass production - and designed for army use in appropriate conditions.

        Neither Scalpel nor Saboteur are intended for continuous operation in the field - rifles for special operations with a bolt lock.
        And this is a rifle to support the unit - semi-automatic, with a weighted barrel, effective at a distance of up to 1000 m (Marxman rifle).

        The bolt rifle is primitively designed and its capabilities are suitable for special operations and counter sniper fighting.
        A semi-automatic rifle is an order of magnitude more complicated and not every one is suitable for the army.

          That's why I said that in addition to the microwave today, we have no alternative to SVD. And precisely because of this circumstance, I think it will be adopted, with some improvements. You are right that the 410 mm barrel is short ... I think if you make a 500 mm barrel, it will only get better.
          Of course, you need to watch how it behaves in case of severe pollution, when water gets in, the reaction to temperature changes, but ... with all these requirements, for some reason I think that the concern can handle it.

    Something the barrel of the M110A1 sniper rifle is short for such a cartridge - about 55 calibers. I doubt that by accuracy it will surpass SVD with its 620mm (about 81 calibres). If for SVD snipers bring a limit of 500 ... 600m, then how to shoot from such a short barrel at 800 ... 1000m? But the store for 20 rounds for SVD is an unattainable indicator.

    Not the third, but one of the most important advantages of self-loading sniper rifles. If the store is not important, then why was the garden fenced? The sniper version of the "three-line", and with a new optical sight - and here you are! The military thought (and still think) differently. So, in addition to high accuracy, a sniper needs a fairly high practical rate of fire, especially for group targets.

      Eustace Alex. The American rifle uses American cartridges. In Soviet Soviet. The difference in the availability of flanges. If the American cartridge at the feed glides smoothly along its lower backing, then the Soviet, sorry for the obscene expression, scratches with its edge. If you increase the number of rounds in the magazine, you will need a stronger feed spring, the “flap” of the flange will increase, and this can lead to under-closing of the shutter due to the loss of energy to roll the shutter frame to overcome the “flap”.
