Home > HK PSG1


The PSG-1 is a widely known semi-automatic sniper rifle designed by the German company Heckler und Koch. It has a long and outstanding reputation as an extremely reliable and high performance rifle, commonly associated with elite sniper units.

Its expected accuracy is 1 MOA, considered very good for a semi-automatic sniper rifle.

All PSG-1s are free of iron sights but come mounted with the Hensoldt 6x42 scope, a heavy free-floating barrel and adjustable stock. The PSG-1 stock can be adjusted in all directions, to perfectly fit anybody using it. Furthermore it features a removable and adjustable trigger unit, for further individual perfection of the rifle.

Due to its high cost (9000 USD per rifle) and weight, the rifle has limited use outside of the police field.
