The biggest differentiator between sniper and SDM is in org structure and mission as defined by doctrine. SDMs are normal infantry squad members who receive the SDM rifle and who hopefully attend an SDM course. Though, I’m hearing that is not always or even sometimes often the case. Which is unfortunate. Snipers are not organic to line companies. They are part of the Battalion HHC, along with the scout platoon. And they

I got the civilian version available in Germany which is the MR308 16", modified it a bit by changing the gas valve for Suppressor usability, and change the flash hider to run a B&T RotexV on it. Out of curiosity, what is the main difference to the US military version? Greetings from Germany 🖖🏻

[@ulrikerudel6859]

I have the 20" version... with a Eric Cortina adjustable compensator... As much as I heard, the barrels are coming from Germany - the rest is more or less made and assembled in USA... but they dont get the chrome lining in the barrels bc its to "military" (durable) for export and that way its more "sporty" regarding export laws. (james said that in MR556 video on this channel) - but better check yourself its called (416 clone - I think)

The M110 A1 will soon be replaced by the M7 in 6.8 x 51 high power (80,000 psi !!). With it Vortex M157 "sight system" 80% hits to 700 meters is the average for a trained infantryman, NOT a highly trained Designated Marksman. That is amazing! Tech marches on.

Hey guys if you ever do buy a MR762 there’s a company that will clone it out for you. They will scallop the brass deflector, and they will cut the forward assist off and re-weld the hole closed. They will also cut into the lower to give you an ambi bolt release, and they will anodize the entire gun and remark it. The company is Black Ops Defense. I sent my MR 762 there but I kept my Ford assist because I’m a firm believer in having one because I’ve had to use it before in shitty situations before and I didn’t opt in for the ambi bolt release and mag release because I didn’t want my kit to hit my mag release and drop my magazine at the wrong time which has also happened to me with my issued M110 back in the day. Anyways just giving you guys the info just in case one day you want to buy one.
