Revision as of 02:08, 22 August 2018 by Pyr0m4n14c (talk | contribs) (→Video Games: WHY? WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS? HOW HARD IS IT TO PUT YOUR ENTRIES INTO CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER?!)
Note: Before adding to this list, make sure you have checked FPK / PSL Sniper Rifle. The FPK, PSL or Romak is a Romanian AK-derived sniper rifle sometimes used as an ersatz SVD in movies, so an entry which appears to be omitted from this page may well be on that one.
The SVD Dragunov sniper rifle and variants have appeared in the following films, video games and anime, used by the following actors:

Norinco NDM-86
The Norinco NDM-86 is a Chinese-made clone of the Soviet SVD. There are two versions; one is identical to the original Dragunov SVD (save a somewhat less "clean" finish on metal parts) and fires the 7.62x54mm R cartridge. The .308 Winchester version (7.62x51mm NATO) version has a more square shaped box magazine. The NDM-86 in 7.62x54mm R was imported between 1986-1989 into the U.S. The .308 version was imported for a longer time due to it being a different caliber than the 'military firearm'.
