MKE JNG-90 is a bolt-action sniper platform chambered for the 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge, utilized by the Turkish military. The rifle's development commenced in 2004 and continued through 2008.[1] Known by the designation Bora, it is currently available for international sales.[2]
Design
The JNG-90's creation involved cooperation between the Gendarmerie General Command of Turkey and the Mechanical and Chemical Industry Corporation (MKE). Its design was led by Capt. (Ret.) Mustafa Dolar[3] alongside Sgt. Mjr. Necmi Güngör. According to MKE's evaluations, the rifle achieves precision with groupings as tight as 0.3 MOA at distances up to 100 meters.[1][4] It features Picatinny rails mounted on both the upper receiver and the fore-end, enhancing accessory compatibility. Additionally, the stock is adjustable to suit shooter preferences.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name
