For the record.

In 0.50 cal, Pakistan Army has recently inducted the RANGEMASTER made by a manufacturer in UK. Barret is seldom used by the Army albeit SSG because of the complaint of this heavy recoil.

In 7.62mm, Pakistan Army has the STEYR which was inducted in the 1990's and now the special forces truly like using the ACCURACY INTERNATIONAL (AI) which is quite a capable Sniper Rifle.

The pics above posted by Bezerk show the Steyr Sniper Rifle (7.62mm)

Also,

The 'shredded' suits worn by the snipers above are called GHILLE SUITS invented by an American Company in the 90's. These suits come is various camo types for all environmental conditions. Pakistan Army Ghillie Suits are however made locally.
