Шаблон:Infobox weapon The Colt Canada C20 DMR is a 7.62×51mm NATO designated marksman rifle created by Colt Canada, in response to a request by the Canadian Armed Forces to replace their earlier 5.56mm C8 carbine in sniper sections.[1] The weapon is intended to enter service in the Canadian and Danish militaries, beginning in 2021. C20 rifles are fitted with the Schmidt & Bender 3-20×50 Ultra Short riflescope.[2]
Design
The C20 DMR is a semi-automatic rifle that uses 20-round 7.62×51mm NATO box magazines. A major part of its design philosophy was making sure that it was reliable in extreme conditions, such as those specified in the NATO D/14 standards for safety, in which aspects of the weapon such as the kinematics, safety features, recoil, and barrel strength are put under the most severe strain.[3] During these tests, the C20 fired 8,000 rounds without any stoppages and achieved an accuracy of 0.66 MOA over 144 five round groups.[4] The C20 DMR barrel features 4 groove rifling with a 1:254 mm (1 in 10 in) twist rate. Colt Canada also advertises the weapon's versatility, offering features such as:[5]
- An optional chrome-lined barrel
- Upper receiver integrated with a previous Colt Canada weapon, the Modular Rail Rifle
- MIL-STD-1913 44 or 48 slot top rail with 0 MOA or 20 MOA integral incline
- M-LOK slots in the 3, 6 and 9 o’clock positions
- Double-stage trigger
- Adjustable buttstock
