PSL

The PSL was a Romanian DMR. It, while highly similar to the SVD in appearance, was not at all similar in mechanical system of operation. In fact, it is more similar to the RPK light machine gun and thus the AK platform, than the SVD.

Overview
The PSL is an excellent sniper rifle, capable of killing most targets quite rapidly in one bullet. It is also semiautomatic, and has a special scope at default. However, this fire rate is oddly sluggish feeling, and the round can only net that oneshot kill to the central column of the torso or better.

The default scope is fairly good, with excellent reticle clarity and low zoom allowing for reasonably good close range application, but the scope's eye relief is fairly obstructive and the sight picture is somewhat cluttered. Further, the stadiametric rangefinder is likely not calibrated to the firearm, and within the ranges it would be used, would likely be useless anyway.

Strategy

 * This weapon is essentially mix of SR110, RX38, and RVD. It's slow firing, fast moving, and high damage. You thus should prioritize a single well aimed bullet over multiple inaccurate shots.
 * The weapon is rather unforgiving if you miss. Ensure the round meets the center of mass, and does not merely punch through the edge of the torso. Alternatively, you may well choose to shoot for the head.
 * The weapon, being a 7.62x54mmR weapon, penetrates walls pretty well. Feel free to wallbang as necessary.
