	The Romanian '''PSL''' (Romanian: ''Puşcă Semiautomată cu Lunetă'', lit. "scoped semi-automatic rifle") sniper rifle was developed in the 1970s as the Romanian version of a designated marksman rifle, much like the American [[~~M14_Rifle#~~M21~~.2FM25_Sniper_Weapon_System~~\|M21 system]] and Soviet [[SVD Dragunov]]. The PSL is built using an [[~~RPK light machine gun\|~~RPK]] stamped receiver with the [[~~AK-47\|~~AK]] long stroke piston, but chambered for 7.62x54mm R. The Romanians never really used the PSL as a sniper rifle in their armed forces, instead choosing other long range weapons (such as commercial bolt action rifles) for that task.
