This!

A very good point is that weird one off gun that apparently shocks the world. Ive seen dozens of Well, TSD, Mauser, etc, upgraded guns that their owners claimed would go toe to toe with one if the proven systems, but personally I have yet to see one that actually did. I wasn't saying it's not possible, but shame on you for recommending it as a good alternative. If you are lucky enough to have that bizarre one in a million that does the job, then tell them you have that; the likelyhood of your results being replicated is so low. As mentioned above, it's possible but highly unlikely. I've also seen this numerous times; players that bought a Well for instance, and upgrades it fully with PDI, Laylax, etc, and got no where near the same results because the receiver or stock was a little out due it being a cheap clone.

To be perfectly honest, it takes some skill and experience to properly airsoft snipe. If your playing competative or high end airsoft, then even a Marui VSR fully upgraded, and properly tuned may not be enough. Snipers should be discouraged, especially from buying a cheap platform. Guys like Thundercactus, CDN Stalker, etc, are the ones to listen to. They are known as great snipers for their skill, and weapon knowledge; not because they tried to save a buck, or claimed irresponsible things.
