This "From the Vault" video features Paul Levy and Keith Ford from Brownells showcasing a rare, genuine Dragunov sniper rifle at Rock Island Auctions. Originally designed by Yevgeny Dragunov in the 1960s, the SVD-63 remains in service with various armed forces. The description highlights its distinct features compared to an AK-47, including a forged receiver, short-stroke piston system, adjustable gas block, and last-round bolt-open lock. Chambered in the classic 7.62x54R, the rifle is noted for its comfortable handling and shooting experience, aided by its skeletal thumbhole stock and a 24-inch barrel, coupled with a PSO-1 scope and a 10-round magazine, keeping its weight around 10 lbs.
