Note: Before adding to this list, make sure you have checked FPK / PSL Sniper Rifle. The FPK, PSL or Romak is a Romanian AK-derived sniper rifle sometimes used as an ersatz SVD in movies, so an entry which appears to be omitted from this page may well be on that one.


The SVD Dragunov sniper rifle and variants have appeared in the following films, video games and anime, used by the following actors:

Commercial "Tiger Carbine" (aka "Dragunov Tiger") version sold in the US, with synthetic furnishings used on domestic SVD-M modernized variant - 7.62x54mm R. More recent Tiger versions have a completely smooth receiver cover.

The SVD, commonly called SVD Dragunov or Dragunov SVD, is a Russian semi-automatic sniper rifle designed by Soviet weapon designer Yevgeny Dragunov. Original military versions of the SVD feature wood furniture, which were later upgraded to synthetic furniture (which also redesigned the stock and added ribs to the handguard). This upgraded version is referred to as SVD-M on this wiki, though this is not an official designation by the manufacturer. It is not to be confused with the SVDM, a modernized SVDS variant first produced in June 2018 which features a redesigned side-folding stock, a 21.7-inch barrel, redesigned iron sights, a new 1P88-4 scope and an integral picatinny rail on the receiver cover.

The Tiger, also known as Tigr, is a commercial variant of the SVD produced by Izhmash, and are available in a few different calibers. They typically feature a shortened barrel that lacks the flash hider (though some have all the military features including the military barrel), and come with many different types of stocks and furnitures. These carbines are sold in the United States as well. Early Tigers have a ribbed receiver cover, while more recent Tiger versions have a completely smooth receiver cover.

Norinco NDM-86 - .308 Winchester / 7.62x51mm NATO

The Norinco NDM-86 is a Chinese-made clone of the Soviet SVD. There are two versions; one is identical to the original Dragunov SVD (save a somewhat less "clean" finish on metal parts) and fires the 7.62x54mm R cartridge. The .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm NATO) version has a more square shaped box magazine. The NDM-86 in 7.62x54mm R was imported between 1986-1989 into the U.S. The .308 version was imported for a longer time due to it being a different caliber than the 'military firearm'.
