What is the proper name for this gun?

    Would anyone happen to know the name of the gun seen in this link? : http://amazonas.town.ie/products/27088

    The website calls it the 'Varmint' sniper rifle by JG Works but I feel that isn't it's proper name. The reason I want the proper name (unless 'Varmint' is it) is so I can search up reviews and different places to buy the gun. Searching JG Varmint Sniper rifle simply is enough.

    Cheers.

    It's a JG Bar10 with a wood stock.

    Thanks for your response, can you tell me why you think this? Not saying your lying or anything but a guy on another thread said it was a JG M70.

    All the best.

    Well I can kinda answer for blay as he own's or use to own a Jg bar 10 ,which is the exact same at the jg varmint and the jg m70 ,
    Which are all Chinese clones of the original Japanese Tokyo Mauri Vsr series of bolt action airsoft rifles ,

    Yeah he's probably right actually, the gun you showed has a drop at the heel of the stock which the M70 has too. They're the same rifle really, just stocked differently.

    MIA sell it for €90 , that's where I got mine. It's a pretty good gun especially for the price.

    Thanks for your response but I don't think that is the same sniper rifle as it's from ASG and not JG Works/

    Now that you say it your right , but I'm sure they're pretty similar

    I suppose they couldn't be too different. Does your rifle creak a lot?

    Well it is a plastic gun but it's never made any creaking noises, when you load it there's no odd sounds .
    So it's kinda light but built pretty solid.

    Ah grand, I know it's a cheap gun so it will only be used in the back yard. I just wanted to make sure that it doesn't creak :D


    Thank you!

    could be the same rifle mate, ASG don't make AEG's themselves they licence them. So that could be a JG and licensed and re-sold under ASG name.

    Oh cool, I didn't know that! I knew that JG never puts their name on their products but didn't know ASG didn't make guns.

    Cheers man, I'll just assume they're the same gun.
