G63 is finished, now for a sniper...

[Dannn]

There's nothing left to upgrade on my g63 that'll make it any "better" for CQB and general skirmishing so I've been fancying a sniper...same as the g63 everything will be upgraded as I'm wanting an accurate 500 fps beast

I'm after a Remington 700 style as I like the simple lines, so what over soon should I use as a base

JG bar 10, TM vsr g spec, TM VSR pro, or any other brand.

I don't have a budget ( as long as the wife doesn't know)

I this there lots of info out there but lots of it is conflicting.

Also sniper parts UK seen to be Sheffield based, I like dealing with UK people too, helps keep businesses running.

So, tell me about snipers...

Go for the JG, pretty much the same- if not, better than the Marui and costs less.

Externals on the JG are certainly better from what I've seen. The Marui design is old.

• ORGA 6.23
• R-Hop
• Decent hop chamber (PDI or Airsoft Pro or the ASPUK ones)
• Decent cylinder and head (PDI or Airsoft Pro or the ASPUK ones - which are rebrands AFAIK)
• Decent springs (PDI or ASPUK ones)
• Trigger (Laylax or PDI)
• Barrel spacers
• Scope that doesn't cost less than £60
• BBs above .28 (the R-Hop will lift anything up to .45ish, and the longer R-Hops will do anything you can buy)

Springer sniper rifles are quite easy to get right, thankfully.

Pretty much what profink said, but personally I'd go for a Mancraft HPA SDiK conversion kit for the internals.

[proffrink]

Yup, that's probably a better call - still need everything but the cylinder internals. Also make sure your trigger box is compatible (I think the Laylax one is, and I know the Airsoft Pro one is).

I've never heard of that type of HPA system, it looks interesting though but I like the idea of a simple springer anyone have any experience of that system ?

I've had a good look in to that... I think ill stick with standard springer for the time being but as it seems to be such a simple no mod swap I could do it later if I'm not happy with a springer
