What kind of rifle is Riggs using to snipe the bad guys near the end of Lethal Weapon? I know this isn't a real good picture but it's the only one I could find.

BTW: If anybody's got any better ones that would be cool!

And for 8,000 to 12,000 dollars, you can get one. Gun bearer is extra.

I guess he didn't have enough left over for a ghillie suit, huh?

Isn't sniping skills like 80% knowledge and use of camo?

But if they always did things right in the movies, they'd be pretty short movies.:D

I don't think their that much!

Can't you get a HK SL 8 and convert it to a PSG-1? Or something very close?

PSG-1 is .308 7.62x51 You can take an HK91 and make a faux/pseudo PSG-1
SL8 is .223 5.56x45 You can take a SL8 and make a faux/pseudo G36

PSG1s are in the $10,000 price range when you can find a seller.

Airsoft PSG1s are much cheaper though.:what:
