Developed during the height of Soviet influence, this semi-automatic designated marksman rifle is designed to support frontline troops at long range, picking off enemies from across no man's land. Designed as a tactical response to the increasing reliance on close-range combat with assault rifles, the Dragunov has a unique name – literally translated as 'Dragunov’s Sniper Rifle'. Originally codenamed "Semi-automatic Sniper", this highly prized asset took centre stage when the Soviet military hosted a rifle contest with the aim of finding a long range fire asset. Competing alongside Yevgeny Dragunov's entry was another Russian gunsmith named Sergei Simonov with his rifle dubbed SSV-58 and an obscure competitor, 2B-W10, made by Alexander Konstantinov - which would be shown up by its inferior firepower in real world testing scenarios. Once proven to the satisfaction of its superiors that it surpassed other guns available at the time in reliability as well as its durability under field conditions the 7.62 sniper went into mass production. Serial production commenced, however, after the Russian government awarded contracts for 200 rifle units specifically built and tested solely on proving their effectiveness by being used on front lines across many hostile locations over many harsh months - showing a true test to this long-range killing machine, before the decision to adopt as its standard weapon would take hold firmly into service by military in several other eastern Europe-based governments following after Soviet model closely and went even further by opening its doors to manufacturers overseas looking at possible licensed deals including some successful with major markets that included china, type 79 production line that later spread and was used over an extended time before giving place eventually on newer version and even in countries as Iran using Dragunov for military missions in regions where they required the use of 7.62 x 54R bullets from Russian sourced guns being the most desired one since it holds more stopping power due compared against chinese models and so.
