Sign up for the newsletter: https://www.slateblackindustries.com/service/newsletter/ The Iraqi Tabuk Sniper rifle is based on the famous Yugoslavian M70 type Kalashnikov rifles. Boasting a 23in barrel and manufactured on Yugoslavian/Serbian tooling, in Al-Qadisiya, Iraq. This specific reproduction rifle was made by Two Rivers Arms in Oklahoma. While many see this as a way of extending the 7.62x39 cartridge's distance, the rifle was categorized to only have a max effective range of 600m. However the rifle has lived on to be an effective "urban sniper" weapon or a platoon-level marksman's rifle, as the marksman is able to interchange and cross-land ammunition/magazines with infantry regulars. This directly solves many logistical issues that a large standing army with lesser logistical support may face. Fast forward into the 90's and 2000's, US forces entering Iraq now face the Tabuk Sniper as a rifle encountered in the hands of both insurgents and friendly troops from the region.
