sniper ??!?

[UnderRated]

I plan on being a sniper on my friends airsoft team. I plan on buying a vsr-10 g spec, but it only shoots about 275fps, so would a upgrade be a must? Also i plan on gettin everything from 007 the have everything im lookin for, at a great price, i plan on droppin about $1000 on my rifle, but if anyone knows any other sites that have a good price on a vsr-10 g spec,or any other sniper please post a link, also heres my list at what im looking to get from 007airsoft.

VSR-10 G Spec- $520
450fps upgrade- $290
1or2 extra magz- $35 each

There are LOTS of threads on that subject in these forums. And you are basically answering yourself about the upgrades.

You may want a telescopic sight.

Read carfully all the reviews you can. Sniping in airsoft mean modding your rifle untill the only stock part is the body...

Well, almost.

Anyway, you will end up spending as much on upgrades than the rifle itself. + you need to have the skills.

I suggest you play with an AEG for a year or two before you switch to BA rifles.

To follow up, most sniper rifles I've ever seen wound up costing well over $1000 by the time the owner was happy with it.

And a good part of the reason we suggest you do your research; aisoft sniping is far from real-life shooting. Many people get severely disappointed when they go for that style at the start.

For the vsr the parts you should get if your upgrading it
-Zero trigger and piston set
-A spring
-A tight bore barrel
-The nine ball hopup packing
-Spring guide
Optional
-New cylinder head
-Teflon Cylinder

Dusk's VSR-10 Upgrade Guide

This is your best bet to knowing what you need to upgrade for your VSR-10 to achieve certain FPS ranges, keep in mind that the FPS Dusk states are with 0.20g bbs.

I'm not 100% sure of this myself but:

-Spring guide stopper*$21
Recomended:
-Silent damper piston head*$19
-Zero trigger(replaces the whole trigger assembly and piston.You will not need any of the parts stated above if you purchase this)*$185

Does the Zero Trigger and Piston include the Spring guide then? I know he explicitly states this but I cannot seem to find information that verifys that the Zero Trigger and Piston set include a Spring guide.

i geuss ill get a aeg first and see how i play and maybe a vsr-10 will be my next gun. Im lookin to drop about $800 for everything gun,magz,battery charger. I wanna aeg that is capable of shooting long distances accurate, a wanna my aeg to be good right out of the box

thx

Airsoft sniping isn't all it's cracked up to be. Get an AEG first, get a taste for the game.

The zero trigger has all the sears it does not have a spring guide thats a seperate item.

so wuts a good aeg that preforms good out of the box, cause i dont really like tinker with my guns. I want a good that is able to shoot 40-50 accurate, that is also easy to maintain.

thx

If you want something like a sniper rifle, look at the M14. Nice accuracy out of the box.

[BloodSport]

Do some simple searches here you will find many threads asking that question. In truth most AEG's out of the box preform the same stock. Pick one that you like.

im looking into purchase my first AEG. Is there places where u can get descent kits that include everything need right out of the box (gun, battery, charger, clips). sorry if this has alrdy been asked.. couldnt seem to find it

[UnderRated]

i have done research, ive been lookin into gettin a aug, but how far will stock aeg shoot, cuz i used my friends enrty level aeg and i wasn't to impressed, it wasn't accurate nor did it have any range at all.

[CalvinTat]

Entry level guns and real AEGS are like Economy cars racing say a..... Skyline R34.

Try reading the FAQ section and searching.

One key thing to remember is that the longer the inner barrel the more accurate the AEG will be. So a M14 will be more accurate than a MP5. The longer the barrel the more time for the bb to stablize it's flight.
