The SSG 69 in Russia: http://twower.livejournal.com/tag/7-%D1%8F%20%D0%B4%D1%88%D0%B4 In use by the 7th parachute-assault division. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexkvaskov (talkcontribs) 23:26, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

SSG 69 PI is the civilian version[edit]

To all those peoples who don´t appreciate the deleting of the above sentence in the article (who of them is familiar with this rifle and the circumstances in Austria?):

As former military sniper we used the model SSG 69 PI, that was then back in the eighties. There is no civilian version of this rifle. Everyone in Austria can buy this rifle in any version (PI, PII, PIV). It will be only registered at the public authorities. What any civilist, shooter, hunter may not buy is the version PIV with supressor because possession of supressors or using them is not legal in Austria. The only exception of this rule is the police and military special units. But use of weapons by them is very, very low here compared with countries like the US.

Note that reference #4 is already leading to our official army website and that one can clearly see the SSG69 PI in use! Hence the erasing of the claim " SSG 69 PI is the civilian version" is completely justified. Austrianbird (talk) 06:24, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Germany added[edit]

I added "German Police Units"; famously, at the time of the 1972 Munich terror attack, the Munich Police had newly acquired Steyr SSG-Rifles in stock, but those were not used, allegedly since they hadn't been trained on them yet.

Aging problem section[edit]

The sources cited for this section currently are WP:TTAG, which is considered unreliable, Paul Green, whose website is self-published, and is not an established subject matter expert or author as determined by the verifiability policy, and the Google Patent, which is a primary source, and thus cannot be used to make further judgments as per WP:SCHOLARSHIP and WP:OR.

I have added links to German and US Patent office. This source "must" be reliable and serious enough. And I also add links to auctions of the biggest auction house in europe, the Dorotheum, with two auctions of SSG 69 and the description of a weapons expert of this auction house who describe this cracking problem inkluding pictures of the cracks. That, next to hundreds of reports in internet forums, articles in "thefirearmsblog" etc (the whole gun world know this problem) must be enough to be accepted as a "reliable source".
