Design

The R-20 Designated Marksman Rifle is produced through a selection and refinement process applied to standard R-20 service rifles. Approximately one in every one hundred rifles meets the accuracy requirements for designation.

Selected rifles receive:

• Precision-selected barrel
• Polished trigger assembly
• Smoothed bolt-action system
• Issuance of match-grade ammunition
• 3× optical sight

These modifications enhance accuracy while maintaining full compatibility with standard infantry logistics and maintenance systems.
