Beretta Sniper
Notes: This is the standard Italian sniper rifle, replacing a modified M-1 Garand. The integral harmonic balancer, contained within a tube hidden in the fore-end of the stock, is used to reduce the vibrations of the barrel, helping to improve accuracy. The Beretta Sniper was first issued in the mid-1980s, and has earned a solid reputation as a fine sniper rifle. The contour of the wooden stock and adjustable cheek piece is considered excellent. The M-501 has a rubber recoil pad on the butt. Standard-issue sight is a Zeiss 1.5-6x scope. The M-501 is generally not available outside the Italian military.
Merc 2000 Notes: As Real World Story; however, most Italian military snipers prefer on of several sniper rifles of German, Swiss, or Austrian origin.
