Large-caliber sniper rifle "Exhaust" was created in 2002. The development was carried out by the state order of the security service of the Russian Federation.
Спустя три года снайперская винтовка "Выхлоп" The first time was shown to all lovers of weapons at one of the Moscow exhibitions. It is known that a complex of this type of combat ammunition was created only for the arming of special forces of the FSB of Russia. The number of copies of the rifle is quite small. All tactical and technical characteristics were provided by the manufacturer and were specified in detail at the Interpolitex exhibition.
Rifle "Exhaust" is able to hit the enemy inradius of 600 meters. Silent and flameless firing allows you to fight in any conditions. The destructive force of a fired bullet is capable of destroying protected targets and penetrating unarmored transport vehicles. The use of cartridges with a high initial speed in conjunction with a specially designed silencer well "dampens" the sound of the shot. The shooting of the weapon is made by twelve caliber bullets. The weighted weight of cartridges weighing up to 76 g significantly increases the stopping power of the rifle.
For the use of weapons used cartridges threespecies: two of them give the bullet increased accuracy and one increases the penetrating ability. The variety and quality of ammunition characterizes it as a model capable of standing on the same level with its Western counterparts.
The rifle "Exhaust" is equipped with a reload mechanismmanual action. The shutter easily charges the weapon and locks with the turn of the larva. A single-row box magazine can hold five rounds. Sights are mounted in the upper part of the receiver, the optical sight allows you to accurately fire at a great distance. Additionally, the weapon is equipped with a front sight and entirely.
The integral silencer is probably oneof the main virtues of weapons developers. The part is easily removed, it allows for disassembly and cleaning of the rifle in a short time. Transportation is only unassembled.
Shooting while lying down is done withbipedal bipod The “Exhaust” rifle, though related to large-caliber weapons, but recoil in the process of firing is not very noticeable. A convenient reload lever minimizes the time spent preparing the next shot.
Designers developed weapons capableto use large-caliber ammunition as ammunition, but the main goal was different: to significantly reduce the weight of the rifle in comparison with the existing analogues. The total mass of the weapon was only 7 kg, considering that the silencer itself weighs about two. With such a weight rifle "Exhaust" has a length of 795 millimeters.
The issue of mass production of weapons andstayed open. The sniper rifle, created by special order of the Russian security service, fully met the expected expectations, proving its effectiveness in combat use.
