@shytake austrlia does really

@ivankgb1 You would too, if you weren't wearing hearing protection and were in front of a gun that can do considerable damage at over a mile, which would mean more energy at merely a few feet from the muzzle. Even if you know it's not pointing at you, it would still be scary.

@adamjlemus looks like a SAKO

@NorskElsker

You've mentioned AK-47, google the curiosity which is the "Tabuk" sniper rifle.

Iraq has basically slapped a heavier barrel on an AK-47 to make it into a marksman rifle (basically a poor man's Dragunov).

That is pretty much the same thing that is done on the rival US AR-15 platform, although the AR-15 is very modular by nature, so it's easier to convert rather than having to build a new, specialized version.

@Suyamu Ok you seem to know alot more about the development of weaponry of Russia, I believe I would be the first one on the internet to say I have been beaten :) Mosin Nagant :)

@NorskElsker

what do you know of the development in the last couple of decades, when you mention the AK-47 in that context. The AK-47 is as it's name implies a weapon created in the 40ies, right after WW2.

There's nothing to master for Russia - Russia has made precise weapons since Tzarists times.

Assault rifles never were meant to be used above 300-400m distance - and that's exactly what they do and believe me, they're precise at those ranges. Stop spreading rumors.

@Suyamu No says the development of weaponry the last couple of decades, most famously the AK47 but they have started to master the art of precision now which is good, Russian weapons are alot better when in tough conditions...Sorry for the late reply and btw Call of Duty is a shit game :)
