A few words about the rifle (information taken from the Kaliber.pl distributor's site)
SAKO TRG M10 multi-caliber sniper rifle
SAKO TRG M10 multi-caliber sniper rifle is a weapon available in several calibers with several available barrel lengths. It is also available with various microangles of the top mounting rail, with various stocks, in three color versions: black, sand, green.
This sniper rifle is characterized by modular design. The base is a common chamber, on the basis of which you can get weapons in three different calibers, with two lengths of the stock and a system of mounting rails.
The sniper rifle's bolt also acts as a wrench which allows you to remove the screws holding the stock and to disassemble the barrel.
When we replace the barrel, the bolt and the magazine, the sniper rifle can be adapted to three types of ammunition:
- 7,62 mm x 51
- 7,62 mm x 67 (.300 Winchester MAgnum)
- 8,6 mm x 70 (.338 Lapua Magnum)
The first mentioned type of ammunition is recommended for training due to the lower price and lower wear of the barrel rifling.
Spare parts, i.e. barrels, bolts and magazines, are clearly marked so that the shooter can distinguish different calibers even in the dark.
SAKO TRG M10 sniper rifle has a butt stock folded to the right side which also has an adjustable length of the butt plate and the adjustable height of the cheek pad.
In the lower part of the folding butt stock there is a universal mounting rail on which the rear support can be mounted.
