This video details Estonia's sniper rifle evolution, focusing on the M14 TP2. It contrasts the original, poorly implemented TP model from 2000 with the improved TP2 iteration from 2008. The TP2 features upgrades like a B&T mount, a standard stock with a cheek riser, and a high-quality Schmidt & Bender PMII scope. Despite these improvements, the M14 platform's inherent limitations are noted. The TP2 saw combat use in Iraq and Afghanistan with Estonian forces. The video concludes by mentioning that most Estonian M14s have been sent to Ukraine and that the TP2 has been succeeded by the R20L, chambered in 7.62x51mm and manufactured by LMT. Access to the rifle was provided by the Estonian Defense Forces Support Command's Supply Battalion.
