Seems like the KM SVD with scope and sling is now available over at Zero One for £660. SVD fans rejoice!

EDIT: Whilst I'm at it they also have the Guarder AK Steel Auto Back bolt as well.

You are absolutely mad if you pay 660 quid for this SVD. I have one, and whilst it's a great gun, I believe that price is extremely high, even with a scope and sling (which you could buy for around £100 for both). Trade price on this gun is around 340 USD, so do the math wide-eyed.gif

My advice is to source it in Hong Kong. Guns and Guys had it on their website for a more reasonable £350 or so, I expect they can still source them.

£660 is, as you said, asking for a lot for this gun. I'd be interested to see how well these sell for that price and whether they decide to just sell the rifle on its own for a lower (and hopefully more reasonable) price.

Don't know where your buying scopes from, but a POSP 4x24 only costs $88 at

And the one on that is a cheap chinese copy I guess, not something from eastern Europe. I love how Z1 add in a huge sum for profit, even if it's because of the VCR. I'll be happy to see a retailer pulling that stunt suffer as a result when the bill comes into effect.

Indeed, hence why foreign sites are the way forward. Just because we're not on the continent, doesn't mean we have to suffer (I think)

Check out AtozCargo's Korean webpage.
They are stating that an electric Dragunov SVD is to be released!
Can anyone say semi-auto Dragunov? biggrin.gif

Sorry to burst your collective bubbles, but £600 is a joke. Ask Swifty - he got his for £250 from AD, and had enough over to get some real steel wood to replace the horrid faux-wood that it came with. smile.gif

I believe they've got wise and upped the prices a little, but £600 for a KM SVD truly is a price to be paid for those with more money than sense. tongue.gif

Actually it is a authentic Russian scope as I have held the one at Airsoft Atlanta and it is not a chinese copy.

Not familiar with this KM SVD, someone want to fill me in? The only thing I've ever heard them making is inner barrels...

Is it spring powered or gas? Reading through other people's discussions is confusing.

I got KM(Atozcargo in Korea)'s Dragunov with the company's replica PSO-1 Scope. KM(Atozcargo) actually made the replica of the scope, but they decided not to sell it because of the price. It's much expensive than the real one!

It's illgal to buy the real scope in South Korea, therefore I had to buy the replica.

KM's Dragunov is quite interesting.

1. It's fully metal.
2. No more options are needed; Piston, cocking handle is made of duralumin.
3. KM's TN barrel is included. -> Oops~! The barrel is not included in exporting item!
4. Size of the spring is compatible with all AEG's
5. Easy-to change springs with a driver. (Spring guide is easily disaessembled by two screws.)
6. Very, very durable.(sears are very simply organized, but it look very reliable)
7. Hand grip and the stock is plastic. But Atozcargo will release the wood option soon.
May be some of you think the price of KM's quite high, but only thing that you need to change is just "spring". I put 300% spring of PSG-1 from Systema, and the velocity reaches upto 450fps. Hop-up chamber was very unstable, but the company adapted a new chamber.(Quite similiar with the Marui's)

If you can fix minor flaws,(piston head, and etc..) it's very nice gun!

A guy in IRC got an e-mail from AD last night - the price has jumped to £395 for just the gun and a sling....really glad I got mine when I did tongue.gif

If you can drum up enough people that want one (about 20) I know a guy in HK who could do them for a decent price (think about 400-450 USD).
