Sniper rifles are long-ranged and highly accurate rifles, mainly used for assassination. Small groups of snipers, and even lone snipers, can hold back the advance of an enemy force many times their number, pinning them in cover. Both Imperial and Eldar forces use sniper rifles to great effect.
狙击步枪是一种远程、高精度的步枪，主要用于暗杀。一小群狙击手，甚至是独自的狙击手，可以阻挡数倍于他们的敌军的前进，将他们困在掩体中。帝国和灵族部队都使用狙击步枪，效果很好。
Imperial types 帝国类型
Many forms of sniper rifles are longer ranged and high-accuracy variations of existing firearm types. The least advanced sniper rifles use solid bullets, but some lasguns are lengthened to allow them to be used in a sniper role.
许多形式的狙击步枪是现有枪支类型的远程和高精度变体。最落后的狙击步枪使用实弹，但一些激光枪被加长，以便用于狙击手的角色。
There are several differences between solid-slug rifles and energy based rifles. Because a laser bolt travels much faster than a solid slug, a Long-Las is an instant hit weapon and therefore offers pinpoint accuracy; the major disadvantage of using a long-las is that the beam reveals the sniper's position when fired, while a solid-slug rifle offers better concealment if equipped with a noise suppressor.
实弹步枪和基于能量的步枪之间有几个区别。由于激光的行进速度远快于固体弹头，激光长枪是一种即时命中武器，因此具有精确的定位精度；使用激光长枪的主要缺点是，发射时光束会显示狙击手的位置，而如果配备降噪器，实弹步枪可以提供更好的隐蔽性。
Most weapons have specialist sights added on to enable them to pick out specific targets such as officers.
大多数武器都添加了专业瞄准镜，使其能够识别出特定的目标，如军官。
Space Marine Sniper Rifle 星际战士狙击步枪

Long-las 激光长枪
The long-las variant of the standard lasgun is a very potent weapon. Using highly charged power packs called "Hot Shots" they can take the head off an enemy with one well-placed shot.
标准激光枪的激光长枪变体是一种非常强大的武器。使用被称为“热射”的高电荷能量弹夹，它们可以通过一次位置恰当的射击将敌人的头切下来。

Needle Sniper Rifle 针刺狙击步枪
Needle sniper rifles (or Needlers) are used by some sniper and assassin units of the Imperium. Needlers fire a needle of crystallized toxin, propelled by a form of laser technology that is invisible and flashless, allowing the weapon to be used without giving away the sniper's position. The beam which propels the sliver gives the Needler unerring accuracy, driving the toxin to its target. The secondary function of the beam is to pierce any existing armour and provide an opening for the sliver to penetrate.
帝国的一些狙击手和刺客部队使用针刺狙击步枪。针刺狙击步枪发射一根结晶毒素针，由一种隐形、无焰的激光技术推动，使武器在使用时不会暴露狙击手的位置。推动针刺的光束使针头精确无误，将毒素驱向目标。光束的次要功能是穿透任何现有的装甲，并为针刺提供一个穿透的开口。
Needlers are silent and the sliver itself is so fine that it is not felt even if it penetrates flesh. The crystallized toxin dissolves almost immediately after penetration. The toxin is extremely fast-acting, taking effect in a matter of a few seconds.
针刺狙击步枪是寂静的，针刺本身很细，即使它穿透了血肉，也感觉不到。结晶毒素在穿透后几乎立即溶解。这种毒素反应非常快，几秒钟内就会生效。
Various types of toxins can be employed by the Needler, the most common three being lethal neuro-toxins, sedatives which induce temporary coma, and intoxicants which stupefies the victim, putting him in a completely passive state.
针刺狙击步枪可以使用各种类型的毒素，最常见的三种是致命的神经毒素、引起暂时昏迷的镇静剂和使受害者昏迷的麻醉剂，使其处于完全被动的状态。
The needler's main drawback is its poor armour penetration.
针刺狙击步枪的主要缺点是装甲穿透力差。
Exitus Rifle 绝灭步枪
High-powered customized sniper rifles are the characteristic weapon of Vindicare Temple assassins, and are feared by troops for their ability to take down even the most heavily armoured infantry with a single shot. Vindicare sniper rifles can make use of anti-tank rounds to penetrate otherwise impenetrable armour.
高功率定制狙击步枪是文迪卡圣殿刺客的特色武器，被部队所恐惧，因为它们能够用一枪击倒即使是最重装甲的步兵。文迪卡狙击步枪可以利用反坦克弹药穿透原本无法穿透的装甲。
"Ultra" Pattern Mk. IX Sniper Rifle “极限”型Mk.IX狙击步枪
The Mark IX Sniper rifle is a heavy Needler sniper rifle used by the Deathwatch chapter of the Space Marines for long-range anti-personnel and anti-materiel work.
Mark IX狙击步枪是一种重型针刺狙击步枪，由星际战士的死亡守望战团用于远程杀伤人员和反物资工作。
Mark IX Sniper rifle Mk.IX狙击步枪
At just over two metres in length and weighing close to fifty kilograms, the Mark IX allows a Deathwatch sharpshooter to engage targets with incredible accuracy at very long ranges.
Mark IX的长度略超过两米，重量接近五十公斤，使死亡守望神枪手能够在很长的距离内以令人难以置信的精度与目标交战。
A highly-respected and revered weapon, it is often selected as the weapon of choice for Space Marine snipers in many Deathwatch Kill-teams. Each Mk. IX has the following integral systems:
这是一种备受尊敬和崇敬的武器，它经常被选为许多死亡守望杀戮小队中星际战士狙击手的首选武器。每把Mk.IX都有以下完整系统：
Tailor Made: Each Mk. IX is tailored to fit the Battle Brother to whom it has been issued. The weapon’s stock and hand guard are matched to the user's size and shooting stance, making carrying, pointing, and shooting the sniper rifle as easy and natural as pointing a finger. While this increases the sniper rifle’s accuracy, the custom furniture makes it uncomfortable and nearly impossible for anyone else to use it without serious modification. Each Mk. IX is also fitted with a special security system programmed with the owner’s genetic code. This system, composed of a sensor pad in the weapon’s stock, makes contact with a matching pad in the palm of the glove worn on the Space Marine's shooting hand. The Space Marine's genetic data is then transferred to the weapon’s cogitator and analysed. If the cogitator array senses the owner, the sniper rifle operates as normal. If anyone else attempts to use the weapon, the cogitator will disable the firing mechanism. This renders the sniper rifle unusable until the true owner picks it up again.
量身定制：每把Mk.IX都是为其所属的战斗兄弟量身定制的。该武器的枪托和护手与使用者的尺寸和射击姿势相匹配，使携带、瞄准和射击狙击步枪像用手指一样简单自然。虽然这提高了狙击步枪的精度，但定制的设备让人感到不舒服，如果不进行认真的修改，其他人几乎不可能使用它。每把Mk.IX还配备了一个特殊的安全系统，该系统根据使用者的遗传密码进行了编程。该系统由武器枪托中的传感护垫组成，与星际战士射手戴的手套中的匹配护垫接触。然后，星际战士的基因数据被传输到武器的沉思者并进行分析。如果沉思者阵列感应到拥有者，狙击步枪就会正常工作。如果其他人试图使用该武器，沉思者将禁用射击机制。这使得狙击步枪无法使用，直到真正的主人再次拿起它。
30x Scope: This powerful telescopic sight allows the sharpshooter to engage enemies at extremely long range.
30倍瞄准镜：这种强大的望远镜瞄准镜使神枪手能够在极远距离与敌人交战。
Suppressor: This combination silencer and flash concealer reduces both muzzle flash and the signature report of a needle weapon.
抑制器：这种消音器和消焰器的组合可以减少枪口火焰和针刺武器的发射特征。
Highly Accurate: With its long barrel, integral recoil compensators, and under-barrel bipod, the Mk. IX is an incredibly accurate and well-balanced weapon and its turbo-chem needle ammunition means that the weapon is toxic as well.
高度精确：凭借其长枪管、整体式后坐力补偿器和枪管下双脚架，Mk.IX是一种极其精确和平衡的武器，其涡轮化学针刺意味着该武器也是有毒的。
