That’s what happens when you sell weapons and technology to the Iranian regime.

Iraqi insurgents using Austrian rifles from Iran

Austrian sniper rifles that were exported to Iran have been discovered in the hands of Iraqi terrorists, The Daily Telegraph has learned. More than 100 of the .50 calibre weapons, capable of penetrating body armour, have been discovered by American troops during raids. The guns were part of a shipment of 800 rifles that the Austrian company, Steyr-Mannlicher, exported legally to Iran last year.

Anyone who finds this surprising has been burying their heads in the sand. But obviously sniper weapons is not the worst one can expect to come out of Iran and hit the west.
