Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova, or SVD for short, is one of the most famous sniper rifles in the world. Designed by Yevgeny Dragunov and manufactured in the Soviet Union, its satellite states and, after 1991, in the Russian Federation and its successor states.
This rifle has been officially used or is still in use in almost 50 countries around the world in original or modified configuration.
This replica produced by LCT is one of the best looking and manufactured SVDs available on the market today.
High quality blued steel was used in the manufacture of most of the metal parts, with the exception of the slide - the only element that is made of an aluminum alloy.
The housing was made from a single piece of steel using a high-precision CNC machine tool, and the cover was stamped from a steel sheet.
Like the modernized original, the pistol grip with shaft and foregrip was made from high quality polymer, giving it a modern look and resistance to rough treatment in the field.
The fit of all elements is first class - all components are machine-pressed, riveted or screwed together without any loosening.
At the heart of the replica is a proven SVD gearbox from LCT with reinforced internal parts with four gears, 9 mm ball bearings and a quick barrel change system.
The metal rotating hop-up chamber is fitted with a high-quality 700 mm brass inner barrel, giving it exceptional range and accuracy.
All in all, this is the best airsoft SVD replica currently available on the market.
