IMHO this rifle has a rather unique recoil action with the barrel
moving after each round. I don't know what you properly call this
kind of action.
Although the name "Gepard" sounds French, some commenters
say that this is a Hungarian firearm.
Note that the shooter many times shoots this gun from a standing
position, which I doubt would be the usual way to engage your target.
One claim is that this gun is accurate to 1,000 yards - 914.40 meters
to non-US nations. :-)

I couldn't help but laugh at the end of that Kord video. He was just walking around with that big gun firing. Pure terminator style right there. That thing is ridiculous.
That snipe rifle is flippin' nice. It's as if there's no recoil on that thing. Nice vid.
