1. The length of the barrel
As like sniper rifles, most have a long-barreled Dragunov. Barrel length ranges from 23-24 inches. Note that there are several modern production Dragunov carbine with a shorter barrel but it is certainly not a sniper rifle because of the loss of power and accuracy of the cause of the short barrel.
2. Semi-Automatic
All rifle Dragunov is a semi-automatic. This means that every pull of the trigger fires one shot.
Semi-automatic firearms are intrinsically less accurate than the bolt-action firearms. However, the world's most modern armed forces have been transferred to a semi-automatic sniper rifle because of the speed of the second follow-up shots and the ease of reloading.
