    Here's the scenario:

    You are a special forces operator like JTF2, SBS or SFOD-Delta and you and the other three members are inserted in to a remote area of Afghanistan on a long duration mission.
    Your mission is to recon enemy fighters positions and watch for any changes and try and find senior leadership. Along with that your also tasked with working with local anti-insurgent militia who are friendly to ISAF forces.
    You've been given a choice of three weapons to take with you on this mission that will dropped in with you in a hard sided container and a separate container with roughly six months worth of ammo if you use it wisely.
    Here are the restrictions and requirements for your weapon selection:

    1)You are allowed 3 weapons that are man-portable and non-crew served. Two Primary weapons and one backup/secondary weapon.
    2) Your two primary weapons must be small enough and light enough to be carried and operated by one person without assistance. They can be an assault rifle (M16A4, M4 Carbine), a sniper rifle (M40A3), a battle rifle (M14), a designated marksmen rifle (AR-10T), a light machine gun (FN MINIMI), a general purpose machine gun (M60), a sub machine gun (MP5A5),
    3) There is a low chance that you will be able to be resupplied with ammo of other ordnance so it might be a good choice to pick a weapon that uses common ammunition especially ex-soviet weaponry and ammo.
    4) you have to pack your weapons (at least two of them) with you a lot of the time, so lighter is better, you could try and hike and assault rifle and an M240, but that would get heavy after a while.
    5) you won't be engaged in heavy close in fighting if you do everything right, so pick weapons with better range and accuracy; also you might have to eliminate some High Value Targets (HVT) from longer distances.
    6) Your sidearm/backup weapon must be no more than 20 inches minimum length (ex. 20 inches with a weapons stock retracted or folded) it must be light enough that you can carry it in some sort of leg, hip or chest mount/holster. this should be just as combat capable as all your other weapons when used at the proper engagement range and scenario.
    7) An M203 or similar UGL doesn't count as a seperate weapon, so customize your kit and pick your attachments, you'll need them.

    alright there's the rules, pick your weapons and don't worry about the cost, we've got you covered, submit your proposals son and organize it in a followable manner.

    After the first artillery strike they'll be dead! And with any other weapon system, after the first shot, theyd be looking for you anyways. Cept I'd be a good kilometer away. And have put a quarter of a grid square under multiple tons of high explosive ordnance. Plus, no one in their right mind is going to run in the direction of incoming artillery fire to find the guy tracking them. Mortars? Just maybe. Artillery? Never.

    just to be devil's advocate, what happens when in Afghanistan you see civilians mixed with targets....
    or targets and civilians in one place and high profile targets in another. if/when you bomb the high profile target, the regular targets will come after you.

    If you were to shoot anybody with a rifle, they are all coming looking for you anyways. And in that situation, you will be at a severe disadvantage. If there are civilians present, close enough that an artillery round or a helicopter or a gunship can't intervene, a sniper isn't going to be shooting into there either. You can youtube it, gunships and helicopters take some pretty legit shots at single targets in urban areas.

    Let's see....gotta hump around with your choices? I'll start with a good M4 design that is a piston design, maybe the SIG. I would add an ACOG, PEQ-15, and my Surefire G2. Since I carry one for a duty gun, I'll just stick with my Glock and add laser/light combo. For long distance stuff...a GPS and a good, light, pair of bino's. The PEQ-15 has a setting that will let you use it to designate targets. I would also carry a few good knives/cool guy tools, water purification, socks, aid stuff, radio/SATCOM, world phone and gum...all in a Kifaru Marauder. Once supplies get low I'll just get it from the dead.

    I wouldn't say clueless but i don't know much about and have never fired long range rifles. I havent been in any military training so i am only making my selection based on info and videos on the internet and books. i have fired 2 ak-47s, an ar-15, and a g36. that is my range of my rifle knowledge.
    could you enlighten me a little?
    i chose the draganov svd because of its reliability, how lightweight it is, its semi auto, its a proven weapon, and blends in great in Afghanistan.
    I chose the m110 because it is accurate, can be customized better(rails), and also semi auto.
    I'd love to hear some rifle knowledge that i cant find on wikipedia.

    Basically, good .308 AR's like the stoner or knights armament can easily shoot well below sub MOA groupings with high quality ammo. They are built to high tolerances and are very user friendly to work on and operate. Not to mention high quality match grade ammo is readily available. Dragonovs, PSL's ETC all use 7.62X54R which while a good round, with decent trajectory, is hard to find good match grade ammo for. Dragonovs and eastern block guns also are inherently less accurate due to less precise construction of most rifles and it being very difficult. It is an excellent weapon for what it was designed for, a mass produced DMR that is low maintenance.

    Something else to consider, the .308 AR can also be made very lightweight, and much shorter than a Dragunov whil still retaining the precision and muzzle velocity it needs.

    A true Dragunov, would be awesome. But anything you find in a terrorists hand or at your local gun store will most likely be a Yugo, Romanian,etc remake, which is like a surplus gun.
