that's a WNYAL rule. you'll have to check the league forum for that.

400-420 FPS with 0.2g BB's typically.

Which is sniper rifle is better stock; the tm vsr-10, ca m24 socom military version, or the m24 socom civilian version? if you could please tell me soon that would be great!

[tds]

You probably want to get a VSR-Gspec not a VSR-10, it comes with a better barrel, upgraded hopup unit, scope rail, and silencer and doesn't really cost that much more.

As for the other two, Ray from OctLuft in Albany is the only person ive met with a CA24 and he did pretty well with it (though he is an excellent player) so I can't really say much about them.

ok thanks!

Actual accurate sniper rifles generally are bolt action because the aeg system isn't consistent enough to really give you that bleeding edge of accuracy.
That being said, you /can/ snipe with just about anything you want, and it is much better to get a rifle that can fill multiple roles like a long aeg than a bolt action if you do not own another rifle, you aren't going to want to snipe every single rotation of every single game, sometimes its just not fun because of game type/weather/whatever and sometimes you just dont feel like it.

Skill > Rifle, you will get much better much faster with an inadequate gun than you will with something heavily upgraded for the job at hand.

As for the course, Yeah, I designed it, as far as I understand it got nixed because certain people would probably have failed it and gotten discouraged or gotten upset because in their mind they are the greatest airsofters ever.

so what do you have to do to get sniper certification and can i use a gun with full auto and semi auto and limit myself to semi auto?

[tds]

The semi auto thing is only if you have a gun that shoots over a certain FPS range, if you are in that range where full auto is disallowed, you need a gun that physically cannot fire full auto, its a very simple mod consisting of taking out the selector plate and cutting it a little so the gun can't be set to full auto without being taken apart.

If you want to be a sniper and are not in the "semi auto" FPS range, there are no weapon limitations at all.

[sniperbaby3172]

o i see can you tell me the FPS specifications and can you or someone else do that mod at a game

sniper certification is a WNYA thing and you need to look or ask there for whatever their requirements are.

depending on where you play, sniper rules or requirements may be different. for example, we don't require sniper courses to be taken for play at our grand island field.

what type of sling does the vsr-10 G-Spec come with?

[tds]

I'm pretty sure the gspec does not come with a sling however I'm not 100%

[sniperbaby3172]

sorry i ment the sling mount does it have?

[sniperbaby3172]

todd how much would the vsr-10 gspec cost with a CA harris style bipod, 3-9x50 illuminated scope low profile scope rings with tightbore barrel and an M120S spring and would the spring make it shoot 400fps

[sniperbaby3172]

anc can you make the bolt on the vsr-10 left handed?

[tds]

There are (were?) left handed bolts for the VSR, and you have to dremel a new bolt notch in the stock, I have no idea on their compatibility or if they are still made.

[sniperbaby3172]

is there like a mod because i was reading about someone who did The Bauer’s TM VSR Left Hand Bolt Mod and i didnt know who it was
