Sako TRG M10 precision rifles for the Finnish Defence Forces
Sako TRG M10 precision rifles for the Finnish Defence Forces. The Finnish Defence Forces will purchase TRG M10 precision rifle systems, their spare parts and sniper equipment from Sako Ltd.
The TRG M10 is a bolt-action, magazine-fed precision rifle equipped with a magnifying optical sight. Combined with the high-performance 8.6 x 70 mm precision cartridge, it allows snipers to hit a variety of targets at ranges exceeding 1,400 metres. The rifle systems also include an interchangeable set of calibers, which allows training with the same cartridges as the M23 rifle system, which have been developed in collaboration with Sako.
The TRG M10 sniper rifle system and the sniper equipment can be purchased with:
- spotting scopes;
- laser range finders;
- shooting rests.
All these tools will increase the operating possibilities for snipers, from the accuracy to the range of their fire. The new precision rifles will build a sniper capability suitable for multiple forces.
The price of the acquisition, including VAT, will be approximately €11 million.
