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. In the GTA games, the PSG-1 is equipped with both a telescopic sight and a red laser point sight. The rifle has a seven bullet magazine, allowing for (brief) rapid firing, in contrast to the bolt-action mechanism of the regular [[Sniper Rifle]]. | The '''PSG-1''' is a semi-automatic sniper rifle based on the H&K G3 battle rifle.

The rifle is labeled as the "PSG-1" only in the original PS2 version of Vice City; all other versions label it '''.308 Sniper''', and it is labeled '''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 game's setting of [[1984]]. | ||

It has a ten-round magazine, and excellent range. The reticule used is not a standard [[wp:Telescopic_sight#Mil-dot_reticules|mil-dot]], but the graduated sight found on the Russian [http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn18-e.htm SVD Dragunov]'s PSO-1 scope. 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 minimised by crouching. The Combat Sniper rifle delivers a one-headshot kill in single player and multiplayer, unless the target is armored. It will also kill with about 3 shots to the body. It can easily take down drivers, motorcyclists and, with patience, helicopter pilots. | ||
