The PTR91 has established itself as one of the best and most reliable copies of the HK91/ HK G3 rifles. The roller-lock design traces back to the famous MG42, and then the Spanish CETME in the 1950's.
The HK G3 was most famously the base rifle for the Swedish Ak 4D Sniper/DMR rifle. It was also the base rifle for the GSG9's PSG-1, which boasted a factory acceptance of 1MOA at 300m.
P.S. it's also the "Auto-Sniper" from Counterstrike.
The system is legendary for it's reliability, but how does it do as a designated marksman's rifle? The PTR91FR here has a free-floated heavy target barrel.
Optic Used: Leupold Mark 4 LR/T 3.5-10x40mm

![AK4D [Optimized] 800yds: Practical Accuracy (Feat. Karl | Swedish Army + PA 1-8x ACSS PLX)](/img/n.gif)
I used the G3 in my time for 7 years before the G36 came in.
I loved it and still love it. The longest shot I made (with optics of course) was 1200m on an MG range. One out of two.
IF your G3 is kept well maintained and treated lovingly it will not let you down, ever.
G3 A4.16 D 683.hala aklımda seri no.hayattır,adamdır G3.çok pislik indirdim.🇹🇷
My service rifle is an AK-4. The Swedish G3 clone made by HK. My particular rifle was made in 1975 and it can still shoot 3 rounds in the alpha zone of a target from 500 meters away. Good rifles they are.
Have a Spuhr stock on it now?
@@nwmacguy The ones that are in use still have Magpul PRS gen 1's. But the rifles have been changed out for LMT 7.62x51 versions
During the G3 years of the Bundeswehr German soldiers never had trouble getting US rifle marksman ship badges.
our rifle test is a joke, the target is literally larger than a jeep.
@@azalkathegunpowderdragon9439 Are you talking about the large Marine Corps target at 500?
@@azalkathegunpowderdragon9439 from a learning standpoint, knowing where you're missing is extremely useful. if the target was not the size of a jeep, half the time recruits learning would be like "oh, cool, might as well have fired backwards"
if you don't make expert, you suck. that said, it's very useful. henry made a big deal about it but it's not nearly as bad as taking a piece of paper that puts targets "to scale" of 300m at like 25 meters or whatever and pretending.
@@superfamilyallosauridae6505 When I went through FT Benning (Army) in 2012, the qual range also had the ability to let us verify our 25/300m zero. Each shooting station had a little plug in connection for a TV monitor. At the start of the range day, we carried out the monitor to all the firing positions. They had us in shooter spotter pairs. Range control popped up the 300 meter target and had us shoot a 5 shot group at it. The monitor had a diagram to tell us where we were hitting in relation to the target, which was a standard, man sized silhouette.
Gave you instant feedback whether or not you were making hits, if your sights were zeroed correctly, and whether or not the soldier needed to work on their marksmanship more.
After both shooters have expended all ammunition, we'd lock and show clear, then return to the control tower, where a Drill Sergeant would be waiting with a print out of our groupings.
If your groups sucked, you hung out and did dime drills for an hour until the remedial shoot. If the groups were good but poi was slightly off, the DS adjusted our front sight post, and had us return to the firing line to reverify. (We had M16A4s with irons at the time).
Then they held the qual fire after lunch. And a night fire after that. And then a spendex to get rid of extra ammo. Which is when I found out how retarded the burst mechanism on an M16 was.
It was probably the only time in my Army career where we had a range session this in depth. The only other time was when tagging along with some PJs in Afghanistan many many years later, for a range trip, where we had steel targets and shot timers to practice with. It was a lot of fun.
@@atadbitnefarious1387 That's fantastic, wish it was more common. The only fancy stuff we used in USMC boot (2021, yeah I'm new asf) was some thing that measured movement which you would affix to the quad rail on your rifle, and was hooked up to a tablet.
We spent a day out of grass week laying in the grass in a circle, changing firing positions when told, dry firing with this doohicky with the tablet showing how much we let the rifle move from beginning to end of trigger pull. It'd hear the click, measure your movement, and if you messed something up it'd try to diagnose it, like jerking the trigger. Weaponized autism! Gotta love it.

Do the flutes really kill the brass? I think the violent extraction and bumping it against the receiver makes more damage...
It hardly “kills” the brass, but it definitely shortens it’s lifespan
Polenar Tactical you’re right but agreed that the lifespan is greatly decreased. you can re-use the still, but it’s like reusing a stretched-out condom.

Thank you, finally the PTR. I love shooting my PTR's and will be looking forward to seeing the future thin barrel video. I reload my brass from the PTR and it still works. There not pretty but seem to work just fine. These rifles seem to eat any ammo including steel. Thank you again great video..

@@9HoleReviews OMG is Christmas coming early?? Henry, you could do a timed course of fire on those smaller diameter white targets at the 500 yard line and see how quickly you could hit them all, Polizei style!
this might make me instantly orgasm
I have the century arms C308 . And it was well below the thousand dollar mark. Reliable and accurate. I am happy with my G3
Im getting a C308 in 2 weeks I have IT on layaway I went with the wood version one and im going to replace the polymer lower with a metal one to make it look original cant wait to shoot it, how is the recoil on it?
Marcel Armas The recoil is not bad at all. I highly suggest you disassemble the rifle inspect and clean the CETME surplus parts. . And enjoy
Too bad QC at Century makes it an unsafe buy. My buddy bought one that was horrible, and it’s not an isolated incident. Century would be a decent company otherwise.
@@SilentButDudley The first c308 I got from them was rough but the next two I recently purchased are very pretty.
Plz don’t call a century arms a G3
Looking Forward to seeing you handle the "old" G3.
I've never shot a gun in my life but I'm addicted to your videos!
Finally! I love the confidence the rifle inspired in you Henry. *Clears the stage, then looks at Josh* "Let's go further..." Those rifles are still amazing for the money. I'd have one if I didn't cut my hand open on the charging handle when I fondled it at my lgs. Kind of soured me on them. Great video as always!
The stock drop is the only complaint I have with these rifles when you run optics on them...but, Spuhr has an amazing stock that lines up well with it...Bill Springfield works wonders on HK triggers-I even had him do my Sig 556 (maybe y’all could shoot that one next!)
Speaking of the stock, you can also get a collapsible wire one which is more level to the bore. Although its a wire frame stock aside from the butt, you could put on a makeshift cheek rest to fix that. Aside from that however, I'm not surprised if there's an adapter for AR15 buffer tube stocks which would help even more.
But nice with the trigger job.
I love my PTR 32, crazy accurate and doesn't cost a fortune to shoot for hours at the range.
Have you had issues with ak mags
Daaaamn that thing is impressive. Definitely would like to see a complete accuracy review.
Pakistan is also producing these rifles in POF under the licence of that german company
You mean, under license of the German government. Germany itself is the license holder, not H&K.
@Rayaan Ahmad H&K made these under license of the federal republic, which is the license holder of the G3 rifle. Look it up if you don't believe me.
And when it comes to arms exports and especially licensing and technology transfer, governments do indeed interfere. Arms exports have to be approved by the German government, for example.
@Rayaan Ahmad How can Pakistan Ordnance factory be called a private company, when the word "Ordnance" means government owned. POF is not owned by private businessmen it is owned by Pak Government and is a public sector undertaking.
@Rayaan Ahmad Lol Sorry my bad i thaught "Ordinance" and "Ordnance" is the same thing. But who said I'm embarrassing myself i don't think I'm or maby just you feel smart enough after copying links from the internet, instead of these boring links just tell me the names of the owners of these private owned factories I'll look em up by myself and with that I just made some Google searches for "POF" and in the Ownership section it showed "POF" was owned by "Ministry of defence". Now don't flip nd say Pakistan Ministry of defence is a private ownership.
Thank you sooo much for reviewing the same PTR91 rifle I own, I call my girl (Dirty Diana) she is based from the PSG1 sniper system model with a 1/9 twist much better gas operations and trigger pull, it is ideal for DDM. I use a 33x44 famous marker optic for DDM Steel Shooting Comps here in NE Louisiana. she's a very deadly girl at a 1,100m. they are pricy for sure! but the German's really know how to make a very accurate rifle for sure. Good shooting !
Awwww I love this rifle, have the HK91 thanks to my old man and it's a dream to shoot. The L1A1 is still my favorite but damn the G3 is a close contender.
I loved my CAI R1A1/L1A1!
Wish i had it back!
Fingers crossed this early Space Magic does well.
Also, you guys rock. I love these videos more than I should.
You guys should do a board to track the rifles and how many shots. Do like Top Gear did with cars.
It would be nice to see how the g3 stacked up against the SCAR or M110 without rewatching the videos.
That's on the to-do list. It will likely be a google docs that we post up.
Hello from Greece!!
Regular infantry still uses G3 to this day...
We produce the here and on past we exported many on US market by EAS the government company that produces them...
As i was on special forces and used M4 and M16 and now on national guard i use G3, I have to say that its a Great rifle together with HK21/11 squad automatic rifle... 🙂🙂
I was skeptical of G3 until I took it apart and fell in love with the ease of disassembly and low number of parts in that girl.
Daddy like!
It's more simple than an AK ;]
In the German army we had to disassemble the G3 laying on the belly, placing the parts on the back. (including the roller lock assembly) Then reassemble it. And that hat to be quick. No tools needed of course.
I've converted mine to wood furniture and a SEF lower. It gives it a different look with the bull barrel. I agree with the commentary, I won't use my match ammo or good brass as the deflector does a lot of damage. Good video, thanks.
Nice! Just affirms my already high bias of getting the PTR 91 A3R lol. Awesome shooting Henry! Can't wait to see the SCAR and PTR 91 Bundeswehr clone. \m/
I hear a lot of people doubt the G3 as a platform as a marksman's rifle, but if you give it small tune up's here and there it can do it (i.e. HK MSG90).
The Bundeswehr fielded scoped G3 as DMR in Afghanistan.
yeah, and everything you need is available on the civilian market
Not sure why people would doubt its ability to be a marksman's rifle. From a purely engineering standpoint the system has a lot of inherent accuracy potential. The roller-delay system provides the requisite dwell-time to allow the bullet to leave the barrel before the bolt unlocks and mass starts moving. The bolt itself is light and does not cause a lot of displacing mass that will undercut accuracy. The barrel is kind of sort of technically free-floated.
The main stumbling block to real precision accuracy is the fact that the guns were not designed and manufactured to particularly demanding specs. The German Army has a long history of making its infantry rifles very, very, very average. For example, from actual factory records the averge K98K for the Wehrmacht was nearly a 5 MOA gun, and they only had to shoot like 6 MOA to pass the standards to be accepted for the Army. Middling barrels, middling tolerances and middling performance. And because it is German, trying to do any after-market upgrades to accuratize the system is massively difficult and expensive and time consuming. Not unlike trying to do the same with an M-14/M1A.
Reminds me of the good old days of my service in the army. lovely G3♥
Old school counter strike really helped solidify my desire for a g3 variant at a young age
HK used to make a rubber bumper to attach to the receiver to prevent case dents but I was never able to find one. Also, having the same trigger pack, the Cetme had the same awful trigger creep.
Something like the robertrtg one? Those look nice but they don’t work with the pic-rail versions
Finally own it!
What a great shooting rifle!
Light recoil & accurate.
Nice shooting. Had two original HK91s and had no issues reloading the brass... Mike both had the PSG1 trigger group and adjustable comb stock...
the quality of your productions is top notch .
Best damn review ever
Holy shit 14.1lbs? That thing is a rock
Pfft. The normal config is just 4,7kg with a loaded magazine. I mean, it is the weight of two USA plastic guns, but it's not that much! :p
Ah finally a gun that can also work as a club

do one better and get the msg. Its even more tuned for dmr stuff. Love mine.
My PTR 91 GI is a tack driver.
Here In Portugal our military stil uses g-3. And they love the 7,62 NATO.. a powerful round. In Africa the terrorists fear the g-3. They usually run when they are in a fire fight
I wish I would've been able to carry a G3 in the American army, heavy as it is. The closest I got was handling a captured G3 lying in the back of a pickup truck in Northern Iraq...so much awesomeness.
@@dexm2010 , granted, they are heavy by modern standards. I carried one in basic training, the first time I had ever held a proper rifle. Since you start from day one carrying it, running around with it, exercising with it, the height isn't an issue because one doesn't know anything else to compare it to. Honestly, the only hindrance I found is it's size, in close quarters. Other than that, it's a proven, reliable rifle. A workhorse!
joao bastos actually PTR uses Portuguese FMP tooling, so it’s closer to the Portuguese service weapon than you think!
@@9HoleReviews I already knew that. Our factory no longer makes them and they sold to a US company the toolings. They are originally from HK I think. Not like the Turkish.
@@teorias28 it's true we no longer manufacture the G3, but, the ones I have seen 5 years ago were all made here in Portugal...

Really love the videos Henry and Josh, keep it up gents, the impact of that rifle hitting those plates. To see them swing like that like, non of the others before have done. ❤️🕊🇮🇪🙏🏻
Hey , THANK YOU ! I love my PTR . Got it set up with an Aimpoint and the meat hammer stock . One of my favorite rifles
Exactly what I was looking for gentlemen...good stuff.
Excellent review of PTR FR but what we “need” is a side by side video of a PTR MSG91 and a H&k 91 both with a Schmidt & Bender zenith 3x10x50 scope and B&t hand guard. Enjoyed the video. Thanks
The only problem with these vids is me... Usually when i find a gun channel i like its Usually alot of content i can backtrack but i found this pretty early on and now i have to wait for the next one :'( man, i love these vids
Did you see that splash when bullets are impact? God what kind of damage is that? THAT G3 is a powerhose.Good video mate👌🏻
Good review. Glad to see my favorite rifle up there
Please do an sks to 500 yards. I would like to see how it compares to the ak
sks is more accurate, more stable and more reliable. just unfortunatly its clunky so its lineage died off
@@ayylmao5121 the fuck are you babbling about?! 🤣😂😅😆
7.62x39 has too much drop to be affective to 500 yard! Don’t get me wrong I love this round but it’s effective range is 100-300 yard.
@@MinhVu-in9iz 500 is totally doable with 7.62x39 especially if you have a decent optic
Thanks for showing what a ptr91 can do. My PTR91 GI is a joy to shoot. Low recoil, EASY ON BRASS for reloading, and very reliable. And it's iron sights are very easy to use. I got mine for under a grand.
I used the G3-A4 model during my time at the german 1st mountain division. The rifle is quite heavy, doesn‘t have a bho, shooting more than a three round burst in full auto is not easy, but the ammo is extremely powerful, the rifle is absolutely reliable and a hell in accuracy.
I love these videos but could you post the groups you get at 100 yards in the end?
@BmgNewbie Im just curious what it was. Its not like he got it with one shot. I also kind of miss the classic style of original videos. Do you know where the channels name came from originally? 9 hole groups.
@@bones1x285 Doing a hold over and only missing once or twice at 800 is much more impressive than any 100 yard group size.
It's called 9 hole group because they shoot a 9 shot group rather than a 3 or 5 shot group. A 9 shot group reflects the accuracy of a rifle more so than a 5.
He wasn't going for groupings
Guys, thank you for everyone's input, it does mean a lot. Interesting enough, Josh and I have had this conversation, and while we were going to integrate a 9-shot group somewhere initially, it ended up adding more work to the post-production planning process. While it may not seem like a lot more time to do so with one rifle, adding 1-2hours of work to every single video directly means that we detract from our publication frequency, and time that we could be spending on making the classic reviews. I know it's been a while since we've done a classic, but trust me they are in the works. Between the SBI, regular filming and personal stuff, we're running on fumes. I hope our summer will give us a chance to catch up on more content production. -Henry
@@9HoleReviews All you would basically require for these videos is after sighting the rifle in shoot a 9 round group and take a pic of it and post it in the data in the end. Anyways, thanks for these videos.
Great video and shooting. Your presentation is outstanding as always. Pleasure to watch your channel.
I carried a 91 at work for awhile. I had a trigger job done to it and that made all the difference in the world. My group size shrank a bit more than 1/2.
I've owned a CETME Mod C, and now a PTR-91 GIR... Yes, they do mess up the brass (you can reload it, probably one more time... beyond that, I wouldn't risk it...), provided that you can recover it... the rifle will eject the brass out 10m or more! Crazy!!!
The flute marks don't hurt anything. If you use a case buffer, it doesn't dent the brass and it doesn't send them into the next zip code. I've reloaded plenty of it with no issues.
At 800 the first shot was a hit . Back in 90's I served with G3 in Iran's army . Great rifle !
Finally! I've been waiting so long for this. Just s thought, could you do an SKS? I think that would be a kinda cool gun to do.
Great presentation and shooting. Love this channel and all it has to offer.
Mine came with an MLOK handguard, added a magpul bipod and a 2.5-10x50 scope. It's a reliable and effective $2000 DMR build that can ring steel and turn heads. Always loved the style but was never willing to shell out for a PSG1 lol
Here Pakistan Ordinance Factories use to market it with the line: "fire power of machine gun and accuracy of sniper rifle ".
In cold they malfunction. That's why your soldier had lot of difficulties during Kargil war with G3.
Not as much as they had then and are still having with their INSAS!

@@sarmadusmani4792 But still reality will not change. And this is a Pakistani show not a enemy propoganda.
Reading comments i feel much of the viewing community confuses accuracy vs precision. Accuracy is what is expected for a DMR or Battle Rifle. This fits the bill perfectly. I ran into Nato partners in AFG that had G3 wity optics that loved them for DMR platforms.
There is no Standard Bundeswehr G3: We ( in the German Air Force - ) had H&K G3 FS ( free floating barrel ), G3`s made by Kongsberg and H&K G3 FS with matching mount and numbers Hensoldt 4 x used by the EOD - guy. On the EOD - rifles the triggerpull is 3 kg instead the standard 4 kg`s. And there is also a precocking system in the german border police - rifles what uses the same trigger assembly like a G3, what reduces the force to a few 100 g ( Stecher )
its the sound that gets me...love it
I had Bill Springfield work on the trigger in my PTR and it is a night and day difference. The trigger I sent off was 11 pounds of garbage and the the trigger I got back was a short, crisp, 4 pounds.
I set him a cetme parts kit. And he built a rifle from that along with a 18 inch PTR heavy stainless barrel and receiver. Magpul prs stock and a mlok aluminum handguard. Added a H&K rear sight and mag release. LMT muzzle brake. Then a trigger job along with his buffer system and he welded on a picatinny scope rail. Installed a Athlon BTR 2-12X42 rifle scope. It is really short. And I have a ton of clearance for the charging handle. Used tall vortex pro series scope rings that have a cut out so I can use the iron sights. Of course I added a set of Black Slate industries rail covers. Gun is amazing.
Very accurate. And that ammo really hits HARD ! Good shooting.
Great Video, and thanks for now using scopes! Was always curious about enhanced sighting results of the rifles you had tested
One of the best rifle ever
Great review quick and to the point on what you want to know about the distance of this rifle!
Cool video! I have a HK-91 and wonder how well it would do at those ranges? The Max I have used it at is 100yds. It is very accurate.
I love my PTR. It also has this weird fluke where it will keep a tight group for 4 rounds then send one high and right every time. Even so... I got my whole family into prone shooting at 200 yards with it. Its super fun.
Can you try a free floated 7.62x39 ar like a ks47?
Very, very impressive. Much better than what I thought. But to be honest, it just makes me appreciate my lr308 even more.
Wow I been on the hunt for a sig sauer 716 dmr. I saw this Ptr91 rifle at a local store tonight a few minutes before closing, held it & strongly considered it. Now after watching this video, gonna buy it first thing in the AM.
That's what I call great shooting.
God bless yall and your families
Was that G3 mag change without locking the bolt back?
Damn Henry has some hidden beast muscles.
Great video as allways! I love watching every video!
little idea:
I don't know what the others think but would really appreciate if you could add a meter display next (or under) the yard display (when you shoot the targets) it doesnt have to be big. It would be much easier for non americans to know the actual distance. Sure we can look it up but me for example, i have to look every time because i forget it so fast :/
anyway, thanks for the great content you are doing a awesome job
Fuck that. We always have to listen to you guys talking in metric. Work on your math skills so you can approximate conversions like a normal person
Description has conversions
Awesome video! So great to see another great counterstrike gun irl.
Could you guys perhaps do a vepr in .223 or something I’m curious to see how a rpk style rifle holds up accuracy wise.
I'd love to see a vepr in 54r
I have heard very good things about vepr accuracy
I've got a pioneer in .223! If someone can drive me to a long-distance range, I'd gladly shoot it all day with them.
Those rounds hit the targets very hard- 175gr is tough. I would not want to be on the receiving end at all.
Aussie Valiant and they were hollow tips imagine armor piercing
For a rifle design that peaked in the 80s and an optic from 2000 it's proof that sometimes things just work.
The military of El Salvador used the g3 rifle extensible during the civil war. Good rifle. Great video thanks.
Pretty relaxing watching this.
I'd love to see you guys shoot an HK91 w/irons. That way we could see if the HK diopter sights live up to their reputation
This is the type of gun videos I like. I would do this but Australia xD.
Would a g3 that has a non-removable fake gas tube ( basically a bolt action) be allowed in Australia? Cheers from an American
I look so forward to new video, fantastic, first bump from Tennessee
It's not the fluted chamber that kills the brass it's the lack of a brass deflector and the brass impacting the ejection port. I added a port buffer or snap on brass deflector to mine and now all my brass is at 2-3 o'clock six feet away and none of them are dented or crushed.
Please do note, that this isn´t a SG1 at all. The SG1 variant has a forward set trigger ( Stecher ) and an accurized barrel, unlike the A3 ZF which this Version roughly would equate to. the ZF versions are simply G3s with a scope on them, the SG 1 a much more rare weapon.
I love the HK91,my first assault rifle. Bought it at Jim’s Pawn in Fayetteville,NC for $400 in 1984.
Battle rifle*
Great channel,precise shooting, and a very clean and methodic style of explaining all the technical parts in your videos. My inner gun-nerd really would like to see you shoot some more european-gun-brands(germany/austria/swiss etc.).
In my time as conscript, I had and G3 rifle with a 4x24 scope. Safe shots where anything within 600m. You could do 800m hits. But not the he is holding the rifle ;-)....Also the guns we had where not realy "accuratized" it was more that the best of 100(??) or so rifle was taken and a scope tsuck to it. I realy liked shooting with it.
Good shooting. I think this rifle can do much better. Those missed shot wasn't because of the rifle itself. Because when you did the adjustments and the first shot hit the target the second will follow. So the rifle is accurate and capable for more then 800 yards.
Maybe the scope need to be remounted in a better way (not 100% aligned with the rifle bore).
Anyway.
A great video... Like always.
You are correct, practical accuracy is not mechanical accuracy.
Practical accuracy does include however, a distance we feel the rifle could see general employment within...can a 308 gas gun be shot beyond 800 at 1-2MOA targets? Sure can...but we also feel the practical application begins to decrease at that point. The scope is correctly mounted.
Thanks for the comment
@@9HoleReviews agreed
Awesome thank you for the Roller lock love! I love my PTR
roller delayed ...
I'm one of the people that asked you to do this rifle... Thank you so much...
Thanks for the video. Can't wait to see the Bundeswehr version shoot.
g3 is best rifle in the world =)
@Judge Dredd 🤦🏻♂️
The H&K system isn't roller-locked. It's roller-delayed blowback.
The system traces back to an attempt to do a gas-operated roller locked system to replace the StG-44 with a simpler system. With the gas system removed, Mauser engineers found that if they had the right geometry on the bolt wedge, the rifle would cycle on blowback without bursting cases because the rollers were delaying. The Gerat 06H prototype was basically a StG-44 with a roller delay system like H&K ended up using.
Yup agree - mis-spoke when referring to it - Josh
