Crafted by the legendary firearm designer Yevgeny Dragunov, this iconic sniper rifle is not just a weapon; it’s a chapter in the saga of 20th-century military innovation.
Conceived during the Cold War era, the SVD Dragunov emerged as the designated marksman’s rifle for the Soviet armed forces. Its purpose was clear: to provide unparalleled accuracy and range for sharpshooters operating in diverse combat scenarios. Chambered in the potent 7,62x54R cartridge, the SVD’s semi-automatic action offered a remarkable balance between rapid follow-up shots and precision shooting. Introduced in the 1960s, the SVD Dragunov quickly gained acclaim for its rugged reliability, pinpoint accuracy, and the ability to engage targets at extended distances.
