I seen that rifle when they first posted the video, it would be awesome to get one in 7.62x51 nato. I wonder if they would even bother with sending something in for FRT, even if they did we wouldn't see it till next decade so i'm not holding my breath.

We don"t even get the russian guns we used to that are available to us. For this expect to wait something like 10 years.

Even has a 7.62x54R version - seems appropriate lol.

Whats your proof? The name?

Our retarded canadian gun laws

I'm doubtful it's an actual variant.

I'm doubtful it's an actual variant.

It doesn't LOOK like an AK. So that, along with the fact it's not .22LR means the FRT boys may give it a pass

It's based off Dragunov so it probably will be banned through that route.

I don't think it is based on an SVD. Entirely new design.

I'm basing that on this description, feel free to share your basis.

The SVK is being introduced in two calibers, 7.62x54mmR and 7.62x51mm NATO, and rifles chambered for the former will use standard SVD magazines. According to the KC press release, the rifle uses a short-stroke gas piston, three-lug rotating bolt, and has a gas regulator with a provision for suppressed operation, all of which sounds very Dragunov

I don't think it's based on. But the lab rats are dinks.
