The official description also states that the gun is an automatic sniper. The description reads:

“Dragunov is a very accurate and powerful automatic sniper rifle that only appears in resupply points and airdrops.”

By looking at the stats, players can easily identify the gun as an automatic sniper (DMR in PUBG Mobile). It has greater damage and fire rate when compared to ARs and snipers, respectively. However, according to the official site, it has been placed in the AR category.

All the attachments, except the scope, can be utilised with the SVD. This is because it already comes with a permanent 4x scope attached to it. The gun is quite lethal and will surely provide players with some advantage over their enemies in mid-range to long-range fights.
