Rags! 1966 Posted March 16, 2015 Stop calling it the "SVD Dragunov". SVD means: Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova That shit's redundant. You may proceed with your day now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WolfgangErikson 127 Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) Stop calling it the "SVD Dragunov". SVD means: Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova That shit's redundant. You may proceed with your day now. Maybe their calling it the "SVD, Druganov" (notice the comma). As in, they say it's full abbreviation first, and then the other nickname for added clarity as if saying: "The SVD, you know... the Druganov." It's a stretch, but I like to play the devil's advocate.

IgnobleBasterd 161 Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) Stop calling it the "SVD Dragunov". SVD means: Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova That shit's redundant. You may proceed with your day now.Tautology is everywhere. In Swedish we say "CD-skiva", which translates to "CD-disc". So we actually say "Compact Disc-disc". I'm going to go ahead and call it the SVD Dragunov. Edited March 16, 2015 by IgnobleBasterd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck67 15 Posted March 16, 2015 No matter what you call it, it's still a pos eastern block sub par rifle. Can it kill people? Sure but I'd rather see the rem 700 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kichilron 8550 Posted March 16, 2015 Isn't it ironic that the article you linked on Wikipedia names it "SVD Dragunov"? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
