ASG AI L96?

apparently, a reviewer said the bison 702 stock has a metal trigger assembly, guide and piston... tempting but no

They didn't specify which metal it is...could be low quality pot metal, but if you did upgrade the Laylax or PDI ones are steel

Seriously, take the advice of everyone here.

There's a lot of experience on this board and all of it is telling you that justbbguns are charlatans, we've also told you that your DE AK47 with a CYMA gearbox IS NOT worth anything more than £40, it's a plastic bodied gun with a gearbox from a £130 full metal gun. If you want a sniper rifle that will perform 'acceptably' out of the box get a VSR10, if you have a few hundred quid to spend on upgrades AFTER you have bought the initial gun then get a well L96 and replace all of the internal parts.

Personally I'm going to recommend that you save up for a while and buy a G&G Combat Machine of some description and then LEAVE IT ALONE. It'll have next to no resale value (like your DE AK) because you'll have to go two tone, but at least you'll be getting a half decent gun at a very decent price.

OK, double post time.

Have just re-read the whole topic after posting my response... you seem dead set on a sniper rifle for 'long range' shooting, how 'long range' are you expecting really? a fully upgraded tricked out £600 sniper rifle is going to outrange a decent AEG with a well set up hop by 15 metres realistically, maybe less. With a bit of sneaking and use of cover available you will be able to get close enough to shoot people with a standard AEG.

Abandon the idea of a 'budget' skirmishable sniper rifle, it simply DOES NOT EXIST.

There are some oddities you might be interested in, like the KJW Ruger MkI Carbine (http://www.wolfarmouries.co.uk/airsoft/bb/product.asp?page=product&id=GGH0202) reviews said that on green the 1st few shots are at 500 FPS :wacko:

I can see potential if you found a gas that would run it at 400 and you stuck a magnified sight on the short rail on the slide, one reviewer had done that and said he kept it on his back during a skirmish, just in case there's a visible sniper rifle/DMR runner who's just out of his AEG range.

Said Ruger could be a good idea, but you'd need to be taught how to maintain gas guns first (some time ago I worked out that gun , two-toning, 2 extra mags and gas could work out at under £120- the ruger mags are quite cheap)

It doesn't look like a sniper at all though :/

i know how to maintain a gas gun, and i was also thinking of a gas l96, i don't think they need as much upgrades since it's just a switch releasing the gas and no vsr parts involved

EDIT: NVM way out of my range

if upgrading costs that much, why don't i just get a snow wolf m82a1 aeg?

 

[Mack]

because it would probably weigh more than you?

Actually, i don't mind getting the A&K svd. Airsoft world sell it two tone for £90 (well within budget) then i can get a svd rail and install a scope. This seems like an idea cause i've seen how good the A&k svd is

 

[M_P]

Its a&k so itll be hit and miss, some are good some aren't. As we've all said, get the tm or the well.

Mack, That isn't a ruger in that picture.

Im guessing you have missed the joke ?

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Lol Marcus, are you high?

His point was, "Here's a sniper, and yes, that looks nothing like one" lmao.

That's my sniper in that photo though ^_^

You'd have difficulty zeroing the sight with a ris mounted optic. I tried I with my old SVD and the scope didn't pitch down enough to be anwhere near where the BB went. That's why I went with a reproduction PSO-1 after trying the RIS-and-western-scope combination. I got much better results with the PSO-1 too, and an SVD looks more authentic with one.

The replicas are about £80 on ebay, £115 on actionhobbies and on AirsoftWorld they have a real one for £225.

so, you would recommend this? Looks darn cool

 

[joshcowin]

right just came onto this thread after i couldnt hold it in no longer,dont go for a sniper or gbbr

1.because they are too expensive for your budget

2.they need alot of upgrades

not having a go but alot of people here have been through the sniper stage and trust me its hard work to get the most out of it.

anything from jbbg or a bison gun is awful,simple as that.

get a aeg and upgrade the hop rubber and barrel and you could have a long range aeg,the brands i would reccomend are: G&G,Ics (very good),G&p,king arms,aps,tm

buy one and save bits and upgrade bits

that will be In one ear and out the other josh h34r:
