OVERVIEW
The sniper has been a common component to the battlefield since the rifle made its first appearance. The designs and capabilities of these weapon systems are similar and their abilities are further enhanced by the addition of specialized scopes, buttstock and bipod arrangements. However, the amount of training and experience separates the average sniper from the true marksman.
The sniper rifle has been a mainstay of the army for over a hundred years now. The sniper itself has become the ultimate assassin capable of avoiding detection, making his way to within a few hundred yards of his target, dispatching said target and returning to his extraction point - all the while going days without contact, communications or a healthy dose of sleep and eats. Ultimately, it is the designated sniper's responsibility to remove a targeted threat in the form of a high ranking official, military officer or rogue enemy element from being an effective part of the modern battlefield. It gives precedence to the old adage of removing the 'head' of the snake to cut off support to the rest of the enemy army.
There are a total of 145Sniper Rifles in the Military Factory. Entries are listed below in alphanumeric order (1-to-Z). Flag images indicative of country of origin and not necessarily the primary operator.
This listing also includes semi-automatic types destined for the Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR) role which sees increasing popularity today. Base systems coverted to the sniper role are also included.

Remington’s CSR, or Concealable Sniper Rifle, was developed, as its name suggests, for quick and easy disassembly into its major components, which can then be discreetly carried or stored. Most of this is due to the gun’s innovative RACS-LW chassis.
The rifle’s lightweight, fully adjustable buttstock folds to the right to reduce length, and the Modular M-Lok handguard, as well as the barrel and suppressor feature a quick-detach (QD) design. This permits the sniper rifle to be easily tucked away, or assembled, in the field.
One of the latest versions of the CSR incorporates a titanium action with a short, 60-degree bolt throw for fast cycling and comes equipped with a 20-inch fluted barrel with a 1:8 twist and 5R rifling. As with previous models of the CSR, this one is chambered in .308 Winchester/7.62 NATO, though Remington states that alternate calibers are likely coming. Some other features include a detachable magazine and a two-position safety.
