The '''PSG-1''' is a semi-automatic sniper rifle based on the H&K G3 battle rifle. It is designed and manufactured by Heckler & Koch of Germany. The PSG-1 has a telescopic sight and aiming is yet improved with red laser point sight. The rifle has a seven bullet magazine so it can fire seven times very fast without reloading.

The similarly based HK MSG90 rifle was first featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], however, it is not available in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. It is known as the PSG-1 only in the original PS2 version of Vice City, '''.308 Sniper''' in all other versions of Vice City and '''Laser Sighted Sniper Rifle''' in Liberty City Stories. In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], the MSG90 is replaced by a [[Dragunov]] (SVD-1) to fit the games time period, [[1984]].
The similarly based HK MSG90 rifle was first featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], however, it is not available in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. It is distinguished as the MSG90 by it's stock, which is different from that of the PSG-1. It is known as the PSG-1 only in the original PS2 version of Vice City, '''.308 Sniper''' in all other versions of Vice City and '''Laser Sighted Sniper Rifle''' in Liberty City Stories. In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], the MSG90 is replaced by a [[Dragunov]] (SVD-1) to fit the games time period, [[1984]].


The real PSG-1 (not the MSG90) in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] is referenced in-game as the '''Combat Sniper.'''  It has a ten-round magazine and is capable of stunning feats of accuracy.  During first-person aiming, if the player is standing, there is a noticeable movement of the scope due to [[Niko Bellic]]'s breathing.  This can be compensated by crouching.  Also, the reticule used is not a standard mil-dot, but the graduated sight found on the Russian [http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn18-e.htm SVD Dragunov]'s PSO-1 scope.
