Airsoft Snipers L96

Airsoft Sniping Video showing rear sniper has great movement discipline.  Also show some cool airsoft sniper gear and sniper veils.

Wanted to post my airsoft business card design and see what people think, feel free to comment on design.

In addition to having an online airsoft business, I also have a printing business and we print and design all kinds of materials, such as business cards, flyers, postcards, brochures, etc.

The link to the online printing site is a fairly new site and I am just in the process of starting to market it. I can offer a great price for any printing needs. We do print flyers quick.

Intro to 6mm bb

I have decided to start an airsoft website and offer some cool guns. I have been involved with airsoft for a few years now and used to run a field in Canada. My field was used for the game series called Border Wars I and II. The last game we had about 220 people and the organizer brought in an actual tank for the game. 





This was filmed at my field


Wanted to post an airsoft article I had written about airsoft snipers.

How do you become an Airsoft Sniper for a cheap price?

There are a few ways to acquire your gear so that you look like a professional airsoft sniper.

The first purchase you will want to determine is your airsoft sniper rifle. There are a few decisions you will have to make.

The most important would be whether you run a spring sniper rifle or an aeg sniper rifle.

There are a few pros and cons for each type.

Springs generally have more consistent power and cost less to run. Most of the higher power sniper rifles are spring operated. Most are bolt action. You do not need to fear running out of battery power during an op. The cons to a spring airsoft sniper rifle is that you can only shoot as fast as you can pull the bolt. Only one shot per trigger pull. If you are in a fire fight with enemy with higher power high ROF (rate of fire) aeg's then you might be in for a duck and cover. The enemy has the power to pin you down with superior cover fire, allowing the enemy time to manouver their assault elements to put effective fire on your position.

Di Di Mau!!! Di Di Mau !!!!!!!

That means "get the #$%$% out of here and quickly.

As a sniper, you should always have your escape route planned out ahead of time, even utilizing techniques to slow down any opponents, such as thick bush, claymore mines, etc. The good snipers will di di mau and move into another position very quickly, then get into another pre-planned position that is well defended and then be very still and attack again once the assault gets close, then fall back and possibly move around to the enemies rear if possible. Sometimes this can be done with a team of 2 snipers, where one moves and the other "takes over his position", and the enemy assumes the new sniper is the same one. The first sniper can then hide, and then attack as the enemy is to his flank or preferably from their rear. This can cause major havoc and consternation to the enemy, as they start to get decimated from two different positions.

If you have a sniper rifle that is an aeg, you often give up a little range for a little more ROF. You also will lose a bit of distance. This is more of a personal choice. You might find that a good semi aeg works great as a sniper rifle. Some sniper teams have a dedicated sniper rifle, and the spotter has an aeg for back up and sniping. This can work very well as well.

We will now look at some of the popular models that you can choose from and see the differences in cash outlay. You can set up a half decent airsoft sniper kit for about $200. If you want to go high end, you could easily drop $2,000+.

To get a decent airsoft sniper rifle, you need to spend at least $100 for a good spring model.

For a low entry price, you can look at TSD Sports M100 Sniper Spring Airsoft Rifle.
Cost $90 300 FPS Spring


For a medium entry price, take a gander at Cybergun Mauser Spring Sniper Rifle includes scope and bipod. Cost $240 440 FPS

Another real good pick is the UHC Super X-9 Swat Sniper Rifle. Spring Cost $210 440 FPS and also includes scope and bipod.

Classic Army M14 AEG Scout $330 320 FPS Great Spotter,Urban Skirmish Weapon Not Spring, Electric with high ROF

Higher end guns like UTG Black Type 96 Rifle Shadow OPS. Cost $300 450 FPS Spring
(we have some airsoft parts for the type 96 sniper rifle available if you need them) 




Classic Army M24 Socom Sniper "Civilian Type" Spring $355 315 FPS


Maruzen Type 96 Rifle $410 300 FPS Spring

The last couple of higher end guns cost more because they use more metal and are generally better built and should last longer. While they often have lower stock fps, they can be more easily upgraded and should last much longer and give better game play and probably more accurate. However, some of the middle range guns work great. Some of the lower end guns have a parts issue, in that if something breaks, you just have to buy another gun, while the high end guns will usually have parts available.

Remember too that snipers are a breed apart, and you need to have a certain mindset to be an airsoft sniper, and it is definately not for everyone. You have to love sitting still in the bush for hours and you might only get one kill, so if you like to shoot lots and get in the thick of the action, maybe look at a regular carbine AEG.
