Russia's Quietest "Sniper"? The VSS Vintorez
The VSS "Vintorez" is such an odd rifle that was in many ways massively ahead of it's time. The 9x39 is closest to the 8.6 blackout in terms of bullet weight (though it still lighter than those loadings typically). In today's video we take one of the few examples in the United States and go over this very fascinating design.

Different firing mechanism but for everything else it's pretty much the same as AS VAL. And in terms of practical use they're being used in nearly the same way. So you'll see a lot of pics of VSS with 30rd mag from 2022 and some 1-4 or 1-6 optics not to mention that Lazarev Tactical already done a video as well as Veresk. Both in russian and for russians so you might need a translator for it since I can't make subs on YT for some kind of reason (still don't know tbh). And there's also some vids about 9A-91 and it's pros and cons comparing to AS/VSS. Once again separated with language barrier, so you can watch but you can't tou-- ...understand.

you guys have too much fun!! great video on a very interesting RUSSIAN rifle.
This weapon was issued in very limited numbers to basically Russia's version of the FBI (an internal security ministry). It's so modular because it's designed to be broken down and easily fit into a briefcase. The agent will then smuggle it into his sniping spot of choice, where he'll engage at 400 meters or fewer. So though technically an SMG, in practice it's essentially a noiseless, fireless, concealable urban sniper rifle.

oh easily $10k or more. really it's all what someone would be willing to pay and im positive there are people in the gun communities around the US who would pay well over $10,000 to have that specific VSS

The muffler of the rifle is made like the muffler of the PB pistol, just bigger, much bigger). In Russia we say, "Everything new is well forgotten old. When I served in the army I shot with this weapon, this silencer has an undeniable advantage, there is no obturator as on the silencer for AK PBS.
Kudos to Brandon for that cinematic fall and rolling in mud for our entertainment.
One of my favourite guns in AVA. A suppressed automatic sniper, it was even more op than the p90.
best intro you have ever done!!!
The VSS and AS-VAL hold a special place in my heart cause it was the first rifle I actually learned about and was able to remember just by sound and look. I’m still new to gun related stuff but if it wasn’t for the AS-VAL or VSS in STALKER I probably wouldn’t have gotten into guns

I literally just finished Shadow of Chernobyl last night and I'm so glad I started using my Vintorez at the Pripyat part. I never used it before because I got it pretty late. Unfortunately, I didn't take enough ammunition for it because I thought I'd make more use of my GP so I stocked up on ammunition for that gun, instead. The Vintorez is excellent for medium to long range combat.

How about that Stalker Gamma update 0.9? Pretty nice eh.
Interesting fact. The full name of the weapon is "VSS Vintorez", which means VSS - special sniper rifle (from Russian). And Vintorez - literally "twist the screws" because of the similar sound when firing

Sniper rifle is a real stretch for a rifle that shoots subsonic rounds out of a 7.9 inch barrel. It’s not very accurate and it’s ap capabilities are very limited. It’s a neat gun, combat effectiveness is a bit problematic though. Much more suited for internal police work.

I’m from Russia, and I want to say a big thank you for such an interesting review of our weapons! In Russia, the VSS is a cult and quite popular weapon, which is still used by some special forces army groups. Hello to all friends from anouther countries! I wish there was no war in your house, and all the wars that are going on now are over as soon as possible. Peace!

AFAIK, SERE Instructors are basically banned from teaching Resistance and Escape techniques to civilians. Basically the fun stuff. Which isn't very fun. It's basically the ABU GRAIB EXPERIENCE from what little I was told by the old heads who graduated, anonymously of course. Just visit a hardcore dominatrix. Or just pay a butch lesbian to lock you in a dark room, blindfolded, tied to a chair, headphones taped to your head blasting death metal and screeching owls for 48 hours straight... Dunno why they don't already do that...

Awesome video for an interesting gun, thanks! I'll take mine with a 20 round mag, selective semi auto / 2 round burst , vertical fore grip, 1x optic mounted on the scope and hinged polymer stock :p
The weapon is assembled from the civilian equivalent of the VSS. The civilian counterpart has a nominal tube similar to a silencer - without washers. In Russia, you cannot put a silencer on civilian weapons. A military model, with a normal muffler, incredibly quiet.
This video was awesome, from Brandon and Donut to the skipping rounds out of the ballistics gel and hitting the target.... I really like episodes like this where all the good gunners get together and play around, very funny and very entertaining. 😁👍
PUBG showed me the thrill and power of the VSS. Garand Thumb showed me the friends the VSS makes along the way.
