Message from the CEO

Since its inception, Caracal International recognized the challenges and the
competitions that it will be facing amongst the elite of small arms producers.
Since the first days of development, the board of the company declared to
the management, the manufacturing units, and the support staff that quality
is of supreme importance. This product must conform and must exceed the
high standards set by the key players in the market. An enormous amount
of thought process, planning, engineering, and management went towards
that goal. A few years later, with products as part of its range, Caracal
continues to be customer centered and service-driven to deliver this goal.
Much market research is conducted to quantify and capture the customers needs. This research
is immediately implemented as part of the product life cycle management ensuring development
is active and responsive to the market and to the end-user.
Caracal also recognized that it needs to excel in ensuring ample supply of spare parts and
maintenance services. To that effect, Caracal has established and will continue to create regional
offices near each of its market base. Today, Caracal has achieved ISO certifications in all facets
of its operation.
The product range meets the highest and strictest European and NATO standards, hence
ensuring quality product development is always a focus for its operation. With many training
programs established for its staff, Caracal has achieved depth in its staff knowledge and skills.
The competences are continuously grown amongst its employees utilizing knowledge power
houses across the globe. Our commitment for this strategy is steadfast and we hope you find in
us the company that best meets your needs.

CSR
Caracal Sniper Rifle

The Caracal Sniper Rifle (CSR) has been designed and built around specific requirements the by Law Enforcement & Military
communities. The CSRs rugged yet ergonomic features allow the weapon to be adaptable but also comfortable for the operator. The
backbone of the CSR is the sturdy construction of the receiver and bolt, combined with high precision hammer forged barrels. Together
with the rugged aluminum frame this gives the weapon system superior accuracy and modularity. The MIL spec 1913 receiver and full
hand guard allow fitting of a wide variety of scopes and compatible night vision attachments.
The 1913 Picatinny rails can be added and / or removed as the operator sees fit to enable them to fit Bi-pods and other accessories
if required. The CSR butt stock is fully adjustable for height and length; it also has the ability to attach a mono-pod. The pistol grip
adapter accepts numerous AR15 style grips allowing the operator to fully customize the grip to unique specifications. Safety features
incorporated into the CSR are in three positions on the bolt:
First position locks the bolt in place. This is used for transportation of the weapon and ensuring that the bolt is not lost during combat
maneuvers.
Second position allows manipulation of the bolt. This allows chambering or unloading.
Third position permits firing.
