The De Lisle carbine was a British sniper rifle used during World War II.
It has a very effective silencer and was designed to be very quiet in action - indeed working the bolt to chamber the next round makes more noise than firing a round. The De Lisle carbine was used by British commandos and special forces, and was accurate to 250 metres.
After the war, most of these weapons were destroyed for fear that they would fall into the wrong hands.
