Steyr ~ SSG 69 ~ .308 Winchester

Steyr SSG 69 chambered in .308 Winchester. This is a legendary bolt-action sniper rifle produced by Steyr-Mannlicher. The Steyr SSG 69 is the First 'Modern' Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle. The barrel is set extremely deeply into the receiver, and the receiver itself is strengthened so that the whole assembly is rock-rigid. The magazine is the Schoenauer rotating spool-type and it can be quickly removed from the bottom of the stock by squeezing in two grips on its base. The rear face of the magazine is closed by a transparent panel so that the firer can slip the magazine out and, without moving it, check on its contents and replace it. The stock and butt are made of glass-reinforced fiber plastic material, which is rot-resistant, impervious to rain, and relatively resistant to casual impact damage. It is also less likely to be seen than a wooden stock and has a matte surface which gives a good grip at all points, though the pistol grip and fore-end have additional stippling. This rifle has 2 mags.
