68. The X is not meant for highly trained and specialized sniper
teams, but rather for designated marksmen, spread in every basic
infantry unit. In the German Democratic Republic arsenals
alone, there were almost 2,000 X while in many Western armies
there was not even a single sniper rifle except in special forces units
(as example, in the Italian Army until the 1990s). To fulfill this role the
rifle unlike the sniper is lighter, a semi-automatic rifle, a rare feature
for accuracy oriented rifles in the 1960s, to allow rapid fire and
quicker engagement of multiple targets. In order to fire effective API
ammunition, its accuracy potential was slightly downgraded..another
uncommon priority for a pure sniper rifle. Like an assault rifle, X has
mounts on the barrel to fix a bayonet. The standard AKM bayonet
can even be used to cut barbed wire. Lastly, the rifle was meant to be
a relatively cheap mass produced firearm. What is X..?
