This video details the history and development of the Chinese Type 79 and Type 85 sniper rifles, which are essentially clones of the Soviet SVD Dragunov. The narrative traces their origins back to the strained Sino-Soviet relationship, the capture of an SVD during the 1979 Sino-Vietnamese War, and subsequent reverse-engineering. The presenter highlights the rifles' accuracy, particularly when using the correct ammunition, and discusses minor differences between the military and export versions.
