Shooting a Legend: the Hk G28 German Semi Auto Sniper System

This video compares the AK-47 (AKM) and the M14 rifle in a 500-meter challenge. The M14, chambered in 7.62x51mm, demonstrated superior accuracy and power at 500 meters, making it suitable for marksman roles. The AKM, using 7.62x39mm, performed adequately at 300 meters but struggled significantly at 500 meters, highlighting its design for reliability and close-to-mid-range combat.

The M14 TP2, Estonia's modernized M14 sniper rifle, featured a B&T optics mount and Schmidt & Bender PM II scope, significantly improving upon the earlier TP1. While serving as a capable Designated Marksman Rifle in conflicts like Iraq and Afghanistan, it was eventually replaced by LMT R20 L rifles. Many of these Estonian M14s were later supplied to Ukraine.

The SCAR-17 is presented as a highly reliable large-frame .308 caliber rifle, especially when compared to other gas guns in its class.
