This video compares three Soviet-style sniper rifles often referred to as "Dragunovs we have at home": the Romanian PSL, the Yugoslavian M76, and the Iraqi Tabuk Sniper. The host examines how well these rifles replicate the Soviet sniper doctrine, despite potential differences in quality from "good" to "ugly". The review delves into their performance and suitability for a sniper role, highlighting specific contributions from individuals who loaned their firearms for the review and provided insights.

This video tackles the question of which 20th-century firearm received the most updates and changes. The host initially considers the Mosin Nagant and Enfield but ultimately concludes the AK platform, particularly the AK-47 and its variants, is the winner. The discussion highlights the extensive modifications and adaptations of the AK, including the AKM, RPK, PSL/Yugo M76, and AKS-74U, to serve in diverse roles from submachine gun to designated marksman rifle. The video also briefly mentions the AR platform as a strong contender.

This video provides a practical accuracy assessment of the Yugoslavian M76 sniper rifle, chambered in 7.92x57mm. The M76, developed by Zastava, drew inspiration from Kalashnikov designs and became a notable firearm during the Yugoslav Wars. The analysis covers its development as an alternative to the Soviet SVD Dragunov, its operation with the powerful 8mm Mauser cartridge, and its historical context. The reviewer also showcases the optical equipment used for observation, including Vortex Optics, and promotes supporter channels and merchandise.

This video showcases the Yugoslavian M76 rifle, a marksman's rifle comparable to the PSL and SVD, chambered in 8x57mm Mauser. The presenter uses the M76 in a 2-Gun Action Challenge match, highlighting its suitability for long-range fire but also its performance under close-quarters, non-optimal conditions. Despite the challenge of using a scoped rifle designed for distance in a fast-paced, close-range event, the M76 performed well with no malfunctions. The video touches on the rifle's high standard of fit and finish compared to the PSL, its AK-based mechanism, and the surprising effectiveness of its iron sights through the scope mount when the optic became a hindrance.
