So, you had decided to enter the game of airsoft as a sniper. Hopefully, you have already been involved in a few battles and are familiar with all the different kinds of airsoft equipment available and have some experience with the different gear and propulsion systems of airsoft guns. If you don’t, to be honest, starting as sniper is not your best move, and making a wise choice from among the different airsoft sniper rifles is going to be a monumental task.
Limitations of Airsoft Rifles
If you are familiar with airsoft guns, you already know that they do not work quite the same as real guns with gunpowder propelled bullets. Airsoft guns don’t have near the same power and range. So, if you think you are going to be super-sniper from 150 yards away, taking out opponents left and right, you need to think again. A good marksman with a good choice of airsoft sniper rifles will have a range of around 60 feet, which is still pretty good with good cover.
Choosing Your Weapon
As with choosing a regular airsoft rifle or pistol, you will have to make a choice on the propellant system you want for your sniper rifle. They too come as spring loaded, gas propelled, or electrically propelled, and each has its own pros and cons. Taking into account your experiences in the field, you may already have a specific type in mind. You may want to go for something basic to start out with, something that can easily be upgraded later as you use it and find features that you would like to improve.
