Syrian special forces praised the sniper complex VSK-94




It is known that the military sniper complex demonstrated all its positive qualities during urban battles, in particular during raids in the districts of the Syrian capital, Damascus, held by militants.

Military experts agree with the assessments of the Syrian military, they also consider the VSK-94 to be a unique complex. In terms of its reliability and reliability, it is comparable to the legendary Kalashnikov assault rifle.

The maximum range of aimed fire is 400 m. The used "heavy" bullet of the PAB-9 cartridge at a distance of 100 meters pierces a steel plate 8 millimeters thick.

Single fire rate of fire is 30 rounds per minute. In automatic mode, respectively, up to 90. Magazine capacity 10 or 20 rounds. The weight of the rifle without a magazine and an optical sight is only 2,7 kg.

          I agree.

          Not really, especially PAB-9.

          About the complex itself I heard the opposite, the only store capacity was called a minus. I can’t say anything about PAB-9. And he seemed to be counting on kinetic energy, not bulletproofness.

        The PAB-9 cartridge bullet, unlike the SP-6, does not have a rear centering belt, the rear bullet cone is longer, and the core diameter is slightly larger. SP-6 and PAB-9 bullets also differ in the length and thickness of the lead shirt. As a result of such changes, the bullet and the PAB-9 cartridge itself have a more substantial mass, and the bullet’s accuracy indicators are deteriorating. An increase in the length of the leading part of the PAB-9 bullet could not but lead to an increase in forcing pressure and an increase in its initial speed compared to the SP-6 cartridge. The bullet cartridge PAB-9 weighing 17 g develops an initial velocity of more than 300 m / s.

        In ballistics, the PAB-9 cartridge is slightly different from the SP-5 and SP-6.

        PAB-9 is a cartridge. Moreover, the most mediocre of the line of ammunition for VSK-94, BCC, AS, OTs-14, 9A-91 and SR-3. For Syria and its tasks, the VSK-94 is better suited than the same VSS Vintorez, which is not so moody to the environment.

      And our specialists, judging by the recollections of participants in all kinds of conflicts, over the past 40-30 years, they complained all the years - they can eat somewhere, only not always where they need to and not always in the required quantity.

      Compared to BCC, it sucks. And shooting at 400 meters from it is for storytellers.

      Once upon a time, Karden spoke out on it, comparing it with BCC.
      He wrote that in the case of long-term work far from the base in the field, he would have preferred VSK, since it is less sensitive to pollution and requires less maintenance.
      In general - a much cheaper analogue of BCC. Average reviews - positive for shooting, but wear and tear of the muffler and trunk caused complaints.

    The only criterion for checking everything, weapons of identity, is practice ... in comparison, the truth is learned and in battle effectiveness!

        T 34, is it the best tank of the Great Patriotic War?
        Is this the truth or a proven example of the effective use of good weapons!

          T-34 is the best tank of World War II. It is proved by the effective use of this tank.
          Since it is an effective application, this is the very factor that can and should be relied upon when you say that the T-34 tank is the best tank of the Great Patriotic War.

    Silent weapons are inferior in characteristics to conventional ones. But there are tasks when it is not interchangeable.
    The soldiers and reconnaissance officers of our unit, performing a combat mission in Chechnya, traveled about 20 km along the road leading along the gorge, and destroyed the 24 militant with silent weapons without losing any of their wounded or killed.
    They had no complaints. Well done, our designers!

    I have never taken this particular thing in my hands ... BCC is a worthwhile thing.
    Syrians like it - okay. Use as directed.

    I heard complaints about a small resource. 5 shots - and the complex ceases to be sniper.

      Sniper weapons and 5000 shots ??? Is that a machine gun?
      Such a weapon has a short barrel resource ... although such a barrel is expensive.

        he has a trunk like a pp and should be cheap. some specialist in LJ had a photo of a wardrobe trunk with vsk-94 in the unscrewed form, the trunk length was 10-15 centimeters, and this can be seen in the photo above.

          Well there is a secret then?

          Here's the BCC, the VSK is about the same, the difference in nuances.
          TTX barrel length - 200 mm.

    Well yes. At least half of this shoot. One shot one kill.

      In practical classes, specialists work out these trunks for a moment. A couple of years of training and practice shooting - and to the dump.
