Re: Additional weapons not in list.
you will not get offered any weapons not in the army's 255 possible weapon slots. Each army has its own little weapon database of its own as you know - it is not global. Check the army in Mobhack - and search for "drag" in the weapons tab. If nothing such is there - it obviously cannot be made available.
However, scenarios keep their own internal list of weapons actually used, dereferenced to a new weapon index and original army ID. It's nasty and complex, but it does allow for the use of allied nations in a scenario. In which case - and I have never checked that out - you may be able to short-circuit it by buying allies who have the Dragunov available to them, then playing around with that.
However - since the statistics are the same (It's not an anti-material rifle, just a generic sniper rifle) - all you will get for a lot of hacking about is a cute new weapon name for your sniper rifle armed unit.
