👉 The clearing weapon, often referred to as a "clearing rifle" or "sniper rifle," is a long-range firearm designed for precision and accuracy in clearing large areas of cover or enemy positions. Typically equipped with high-capacity magazines and advanced optics, including scopes for targeting at extended distances, this weapon is used by military and law enforcement personnel to eliminate threats, secure areas, or gather intelligence without engaging in direct combat. Its effectiveness lies in its ability to penetrate enemy defenses and neutralize threats from a safe distance, minimizing the risk to the operator while maximizing operational efficiency.
