The
MSG-90 sniper rifle had been introduced
by the German company Heckler-Koch in
1987 as a militarized offspring of their
PSG-1 police sniper rifle. It was built
to military specifications, and is much
lighter and somewhat cheaper than the
H&K PSG-1. It shares most essential
features of the PSG-1, including overall
design, the roller-delayed blowback and
semi-automatic only action.
The latest variant is the MSG-90A1. This
rifle was built for US DOD DMR
(Designated Marksman Rifle) program, and
has some additional characteristics and
features, not found on the original
MSG-90. The MSG-90A1 is fitted with the
barrel, threaded on the muzzle, to accept
screw-on silencers, and is equipped with
low signature flash hider. The MSG-90A1
also is equipped with open sights - a
typical HK hooded front sight, combined
with adjustable rear sights, similar in
design to HK 21 Machinegun rear sight.
The ejection port is fitted with brass
deflector, which allows the gun to be
fired from the left shoulder. Otherwise
it is similar to the MSG-90.

The barrel of
the MSG-90 is somewhat shorter and
lighter, but still is of match grade, and
is manufactured using cold hammer forging
process. On the original model the barrel
is equipped with additional muzzle
weight, added to improve barrel harmonics
and thus increase shots consistence. The
buttstock is of different shape,
adjustable for length of pull and for
height of the cheekpiece. The trigger
unit is made from plastic integral with
pistol grip. The trigger with adjustable
shoe is set at 1.5 kg (~3 lbs). The
forend is fitted with underrail that
accepts the detachable folding bipod.
There's no open sights on the MSG-90, and
it's fitted by standard with 10X (6X in
game) telescope sight with range settings
from 100 to 1200 meters. The scope is
mounted on the MilStd scope rail, that
allows for many various scopes and night
vision devices to be mounted
interchangeably. -(Shortened
