POTD: Chinese NDM-86 SVD in 7.62 NATO

Our daily article series called Photo Of The Day will take you to some very exciting and unusual places sometimes. In this case, the caliber is more of a curiosity than the rifle itself, as we have a Chinese NDM-86 SVD clone chambered in 7.62 NATO. It comes from the collection of Dominion Defense LLC.

Here’s the caption from Cinematic Arms, who took the photos:

One that has been on my bucket list of firearms to photograph for a long time. Thanks to @dominiondefensellc for providing today’s post, a Norinco, Chinese NDM-86 styled and closely related to the Russian sniper rifle , the Dragunov, normally chambered 7.62x54r, this one happens to be in 7.62×51, ie 308/ 7.62 Nato.

The quality of the photos as well as the selection of firearms are really worth a follow.
Did you ever shoot a Dragunov? I have! What did you think about it?
