The Saritch 308 (Buzzard) is a prototype of Bullpup designated marksman rifle of Russian origin under development by Tula Arms. Designed by engineer Alexander Shevchenko and design student Andrey Ovsyannikov, the .308 semi-auto rifle is a testbed for a new firing mechanism planned to be used in a modular weapon system ranging from carbines to light machine guns. The first working model is planned for testing in late 2010.
