DVL-10 is a lightweight, compact, and silenced rifle in proprietary and current military subsonic calibers and has been developed for special service ad combat missions where exceptional accuracy and range are needed. Equipped with a standard Lobaev foldable butt-stock and Lobaev Hummer Barrels stainless steel match-grade barrel.
Like every sniper rifle, it is better to shoot it from a distance than in close combat.
As of now, sniper 10x scopes are glitchy, and should not be used as a good optic mod for the rifle.
The DVL-10 takes two to three shots to kill someone if the round hits the chest, arms, or legs. The DVL-10 takes one shot to kill someone when the round hits the head.
