KSK Symposium:
Sniper in close range
10/05/2024

The German special forces are getting the new short-range sniper rifle. The G210 may not be used by the KSK, but it was a guest at the 9th KSK Armaments Symposium. HK won the tender with the MR308A6.

The G210 is a short-range sniper rifle in the proven caliber 7.62 mm x 51. The delivery of up to 500 units of the G210 for the Special Forces of the Bundeswehr is planned for the year 2025. 

The MR308A6 was specially developed by HECKLER & KOCH for this tender. The weapon also introduces a precision cartridge in caliber 7.62 mm x 51. The semi-automatic gas-operated rifle weighs around 4.4 kg (without magazine) and offers significantly more operating comfort due to the relocation of the charging handle to the side of the weapon.
