If the weapon is manufactured and developed by Heckler and Koch, a German company, and is developed from the company's HK417, which, again, is also German due to the company being German, the rifle is in fact not American but German. That's why I removed the "American" from the sentence and added "German" instead, since it is in fact not American but German.

'''M110A1''' may refer to the '''M110A1 CSASS''' (Compact Semi Automatic Sniper System) or the '''M110A1 SDMR''' (Squad [[Designated marksman rifle|Designated Marksman Rifle]]). It is ana AmericanGerman [[Semi-automatic firearm|semi-automatic]] [[sniper rifle]] that is chambered for the [[7.62×51mm NATO]] round. It is manufactured by [[Heckler & Koch]] (H&K) and developed from the company's [[HK417]], and similar to the [[Bundeswehr]] G28 configuration. Despite a designation similar to the [[M110 Semi-Automatic Sniper System]] (M110 SASS), the M110A1 is an unrelated design as the former was a development of the [[Knight's Armament Company SR-25]]. The M110A1 CSASS was expected to supplant and eventually replace the M110 in U.S. military service but this does not appear to have occurred as of 2022. However, several thousand M110A1 SDMRs have been fielded with the [[United States Army|US Army]] and [[United States Air Force|Air Force]] to replace various weapon systems currently being used.
