Cheap sniper rifle

vlad2009

hello, im just wondering does anyone know a website that ships the TSD tactical swat 700 bolt action spring rifle?

on amazon it is advertised for 70 quid without a scope but the problem is it only ships within the us. (http://www.amazon.com/Tactical-Action-Spring-Powered-Airsoft/dp/B001DHHSU4)

or is there any other similar rifles that are cheap-ish.
I am very intrested about airsoft but havent got a clue where to start, and snipers is something i'd be even more intrested.

any other recomendations would be great.

also i hope this is the right board.

JG Bar 10 , bout €150 with scope and bipod.
Great little sniper rifle and upgrade parts are very easy to find (even though I cant find a shop in Ireland with one.)

Well lots of people are probably going to come on here telling you to get an AEG or go to your nearest site, rent a gun and ask to use everyones to see what you like... I'd be inclined to agree with them.

However if you're SURE you want a sniper rifle then JG BAR 10 all the way. It's great even for plinking in the back garden.

And with a tiny bit of work on the mags, TM one's will fit grand

Firekitten

why bother with tm mags? G&Ps 60 round vsr mags fit fine without :P i have one.

Tbh, bar10 is a great little gun. Just gutted I sold mine recently. But With my maruzen monster, she never got used.

Heard mixed reviews about the G&P mags, but then again, that's the case with everything I suppose, might pick one up, but then again I already have three 30 round mags...

g&p mags in general, are utter doggy droppings. the vsr ones werent too bad from my experience. Worked grand.

what about the AGM MP-001, im looking so cheap because if i like the whole sniper thing i can just upgrade in a few months when i get a bit of training in.
i am still struggling to find someone shipping to ireland tho.

Firekitten

wouldnt bother, its not upgradable, and generally a bit naff.

Get the bar10, if you decide you dont like sniping, it has good resale value. if you DO like it, just keep it, and put upgrades in the gun! simple

vlad2009

yes the bar 10 is very nice and cheap aswell. is it possible to get these anywhere that ship to Ireland?

Firekitten

plenty of Irish retailers will import it for you if you ask em, or second hand forums are great for a bargain.

vlad2009

okay, i've searched so much and i cannot find one place where i can get it, i e-mailed eirsoft to see if they can get it.

does anyone know whats the craic with rsov, it says every sniper is out of stock. does anyone know how i can buy something from there?

Firekitten

chinese stock levels atm are iffy... if they are out of stock, they are probably out of stock :S

vlad2009

i was so stupid, and never looked at the ATTENTION in big red letters on rsov, turns out they have a new website. which has the stock.

vlad2009

don't mean to double post but, it turns out its basically imposible to get the JG bar 10.
so i have been looking at others and can anyone say anything about the well vsr-10 rifles (mb07)or mbo3 or which ever is best. or what abou the well l96's? although i think the r700 based rifles look so much better than the l96's.

snowwolf

just get yourself a l96 they are the best rifle out there . trust me i have two of them . . one gas one spring . .both great rifles .:D

Firekitten

Its a matter of taste... I prefer the l96 looks myself Frankly, vsrs have better function at lower fps, the maruzen design is far superior at 500... which is illegal in Ireland, so meh. At 328 its fairly close call, but I'd er on the side of VSR frankly. Your call hon.


Snowwolf: Yeah, I have a gas bolt and a spring bolt for my maruzen 96
