Silent Sniper Rifle Vintorez for Daz Studio

Sniper Rifle Vintorez is Soviet-designed assault rifle featuring an integral suppressor based on the prototype RG-036 completed in 1981 by TsNIITochMash. The VSS Vintorez (beginning in 1983) and similar designed assault rifle AS Val (beginning in 1985) were developed by TsNIITochMash to replace modified general-purpose firearms, such as the AKS-74UB, BS-1, APB, and PB, for clandestine operations. Manufacturing began at the Tula Arms Plant after its adoption by the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union in 1987. Development of the VSS Vintorez was carried out in parallel with the AS Val, to provide a suppressed sniper rifle for Spetsnaz undercover or clandestine units and capable of defeating NATO body armour at ranges up to 400 m (440 yd) with little noise as possible
