INTRODUCTION
Technical Description and Service Manual of the 7. 62-mm Dragunov
sniper rifle (SVD) is intended for studying the rifles and optical
sights and keeping them in constant fighting ready for action.
This paper includes specifications and data of the rifle and optical
sight design and operation, as well as main rules necessary to provide
for the proper maintenance of the rifle with the sight and full using
of their technical capabilities.
Since efforts are continuously made to improve the rifle and its
completing articles, minor changes in the Technical Description may be
introduced without special notice.
1. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
1.1. Purpose of rifle
1.1.1.
The 7. 62-mm Dragunov sniper rifle is a sniper's weapon and is
designed to destroy various single targets, which may be collapsible,
moving, open and screened (Fig. 1).
The sniper optical sight is intended for precise aiming of the
sniper rifle at various targets.

1.1.2.
The sniper rifle uses rifle cartridges with ordinary, tracer and
armor-piercing-incendiary bullets or rifle sniper cartridges. The fire
is delivered in single shots.
1.1.3.
The optical sight permits to conduct night firing at infrared
sources and under bad conditions of illumination, when it is difficult
to fire at targets with the open sight.
When observing the infrared sources, the rays radiated by the source
pass through the sight objective and effect the screen, located in the
focal plane of the objective lens.
In place of acting the infrared rays luminescence appears on the
screen. It results in a visible source image in the form of a round
greenish spot.
