  • Long-Range Fifty Caliber Rifles: Should They Be More Strictly Regulated?
    Order Code RS22151 May 20, 2005 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Long-Range Fifty Caliber Rifles: Should They Be More Strictly Regulated? William J. Krouse Domestic Social Policy Division Summary In the 109th Congress, legislation has been introduced to more strictly regulate certain .50 caliber rifles, some of which have been adopted by the U.S. military as sniper rifles. These rifles are chambered to fire a relatively large round that was originally designed for the Browning Machine Gun (BMG). Gun control advocates have argued that these firearms have little sporting, hunting, or recreational purpose. They maintain that these rifles could be used to shoot down aircraft, rupture pressurized chemical tanks, or penetrate armored personnel carriers. Gun control opponents counter that these rifles are expensive, cumbersome and rarely, if ever, used in crime. Furthermore, they maintain that these rifles were first developed for long-range marksmanship competitions and, then adopted by the military as sniper rifles. Related amendments may be offered during Senate-consideration of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (S. 397).1 The issue for Congress is whether to regulate these firearms more stringently based on their destructive potential in a post-9/11 environment. And if regulation is pursued, what measures seem most effective and appropriate. This report will be updated as needed. Legislative Proposals in the 109th Congress In the 109th Congress, two proposals have been introduced to more strictly regulate certain long-range .50 caliber rifles. The Fifty Caliber Sniper Weapons Regulation Act of 2005 (S. 935), introduced by Senator Dianne Feinstein, would amend the National Firearms Act (NFA)2 to regulate “.50 caliber sniper weapons” in the same fashion as short-barreled shotguns and silencers, by levying taxes on the manufacture and transfer of such firearms and by requiring owner and firearm registration.

    vulcan 5 (2017) 64-88 brill.com/vulc The Secret of Seeing Charlie in the Dark The Starlight Scope, Techno-anxiety, and the Spectral Mediation of the Enemy in the Vietnam War Richard A. Ruth Department of History, United States Naval Academy, Annapolis, md 21402, usa [email protected] Abstract The introduction of night vision technology during the Vietnam War transformed how u.s. military men and their communist enemies fought at night. The starlight scope’s seemingly miraculous light-amplifying powers made hitherto unseen targets easier to see. And as sole possessor of this new technology, American soldiers had a profound tactical advantage operating at night. But they also paid a price for this new edge. Bur- dened by the scope’s weight, untested technology, and extreme secrecy, these service- men suffered. They endured physical, psychological, and emotional stress unforeseen by the military leaders who pushed for the scope’s development during the Cold War. The new rifle-mounted scope figuratively transformed night into day, and, paradoxi- cally, made it harder for many American soldiers to pull the trigger. Keywords starlight scope – night-vision technology – Vietnam War – sniper – psychological effects In 1965, the United States military committed its first combat troops to South Vietnam. It sent along with that first wave of American soldiers and marines a new technological marvel that allowed its troops to see their guerrilla en- emy in the dark. The “starlight scope,” as it was soon christened, amplified ambient light, mostly from starlight, moonlight, and sky glow. Along with this heavy piece of machinery—one of the first models weighed more than forty pounds—the u.s.

  • Sighting in a Mosin-Nagant "Sniper" Rifle
    Sighting In a Mosin-Nagant "Sniper" Rifle By Paul Oats Arguably the most popular, if not most prevalent, rifle currently on the military surplus market is the Russian Mosin-Nagant bolt action rifle in 7.62x54R. A combination of interesting history, low price, reliable design, and many variations make it an ideal rifle with which to begin a military collection. One of the more interesting variants of the Mosin-Nagant is the 91/30 sniper rifle. A major surplus distributor has imported many thousands of 91/30 rifles, along with a boat load of PU scopes. Their "wizards" (calling them gunsmiths is a bit of a stretch) have cobbled together these rifles and scopes, which are now being sold as collectible sniper rifles. The easiest way to tell if you have one of these cobbled rifles is by the price. If you paid around $300, you can be sure it's one of these, as a genuine MN sniper rifle goes for about $700. Fig. 1 - The PU scope and mount. Now don't get me wrong - I love MN rifles, and with a little TLC, these "sniper" models can be made to shoot quite accurately. The problem with them is that since the scope mount was not machined to match the rifle at the time of original manufacture, some misalignment problems with the scope, particularly with the windage (horizontal) adjustment can occur. While a genuine sniper rifle would have had any variations between the scope and receiver machined out, these "wizard" jobs have not. Also, unlike modern rifle scopes where the reticule stays centered and the entire field of view moves for sight-in purposes, the PU scope's field of view is fixed and only the reticule moves.

    Sitting Ducks The Threat to the Chemical and Refinery Industry From 50 Caliber Sniper Rifles Section One: The Capability of the 50 Caliber Sniper Rifle "The advantages are obvious when you consider that many of the same targets of rocket and mortar fire can be neutralized with M33 ball, API M8 or Multipurpose ammunition." —"Heavy Firepower for Light Infantry," Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, Inc. brochure advertising its Model 82A1 50 caliber sniper rifle15 The .50 BMG roundb fired by 50 caliber sniper rifles can knock down hovering helicopters, penetrate armored limousines, and ignite bulk fuel tanks from a distance of 10 football fields.16 The round's merits were summarized in the authoritative journal The Small Arms Review: The fifty caliber's ability to be deployed by one individual and give that person the capability of discretely engaging a target at ranges of over one mile away are definitely alluring from a tactical standpoint. While the .50 cal sometimes seems to be exaggerated, it is hard to imagine a round that at ranges of over a mile and a half away, has more kinetic energy than a .44 Magnum, and has unbeatable penetration as well.17 Extended Range and Accuracy Advertising, military manuals, expert writing, and civilian owner comments all demonstrate that 50 caliber sniper rifles are accurate at ranges of at least 1,000 yards, and in the hands of a trained marksman, nearly 2,000 yards. "With confirmed hits out to 1800 meters, the Barrett model 82A1 is battle proven," Barrett Firearms states in its promotional brochure.18 In fact, U.S.

According to the following article from Global Times, it will replace the outdated QBU-88, which has been in use by the People’s Liberation Army for over 20 years but no longer meets the requirements of modern warfare. The new high-precision sniper rifle, which was not given a designation, fires 7.63-millimeter rifle rounds and has a range of 800 meters (half a mile). The technology of the rifle is such that it can be operated at night. The article also mentions another fairly new type of advanced sniper rifle, the high-caliber QBU- 10, which, according to other sources, has been adopted by Chinese army and navy special forces.
