This video provides a practical accuracy test of the Iraqi Tabuk Sniper rifle, a reproduction made by Two Rivers Arms. Based on the Yugoslavian M70 Kalashnikov, the rifle features a 23-inch barrel and is chambered in 7.62x39mm. The video explores its historical context as an "urban sniper" or platoon-level marksman's rifle, highlighting its logistical advantages for large armies. It also touches upon its reappearance in US forces' encounters in Iraq during the 90s and 2000s. The review includes a distance conversion table and mentions other relevant firearm content creators for further information.
This video explores Two River Arms, a company in Oklahoma City specializing in building authentic Iraqi Tabuk rifles from Yugo M72 parts kits. The creator, Steve Russell, was motivated by the inability of modern veterans to bring home captured firearms as previous generations could. The company's unique niche involves recreating these specific rifles, complete with Arabic markings, connecting directly to contemporary conflicts. The description also thanks supporters like Proxibid, Ventura Munitions, and Savage Arms, and promotes the TFBTV Patreon page.
