The Distant Executioner

During World War II, snipers were seen as a spooky, merciless “Murder Inc.” by other soldiers—the brutal intimacy of their kills made them a breed apart. But in Afghanistan, where avoiding civilian deaths is a top priority, U.S. military sharpshooters may have found the war that needs them most. Going inside the world of Texas Army National Guardsman “Russ Crane,” who has dropped a Taliban fighter at 806 meters, the author discovers the sniper’s special talents and torments, and why it helps, in Crane’s view, to have God on your side.

SVD stands for “Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova” which translates as Dragunov’s Sniper Rifle. It takes its name from Evgeny Dragunov who designed the rifle, which won the contest for a new Soviet sniper’s rifle

Rifle Details
The SVD design bears some cosmetic resemblance to the AK-47, including the removable dust cover, ladder iron sights, safety, and magazine release lever. Its receiver is machined, which gives greater rigidity for greater accuracy. Even though the SVD is a gas operated, self-loading rifle, the rotating bolt design handles the 7.62×54R cartridge quite well. The barrel is 24.4 inches long on the original SVD, of which 21.5 inches is rifled — the rest being flash suppressor. Unlike most sniper rifles, the SVD has a bayonet lug, and some former Spetsnaz snipers found that harmonics are better with the bayonet affixed. I gather this was especially true with the 7N1 sniper round, used until it was replaced by the 7N14 round in 1999.

The SVD’s 10-round detachable, double-column box magazine and self-loading action grant it tactical versatility. Spetsnaz snipers with SVDs saved many children’s lives during the Beslan School incident by delivering fast, sustained fire at terrorists who were shooting at fleeing children.The PSO-1 4x scope isn’t the greatest long-range scope, but does well in engaging multiple targets quickly. A standard-issue, four-magazine pouch gives the sniper 50 ready rounds as a basic combat load. The side rail mount allows quick installation of other optics, including 6x scopes or night vision optics.
