Hey Gordo, I think the TM PSG-1 is more of a collection piece for collectors than anything, as it is a unique and beautiful gun to own, HOWEVER when fully upgraded it can perform very well (which will cost you a small fortune), but as Amos and CDN_Stalker said it probably won't match a good spring/gas rifle.

Aquamarine has an upgraded PSG-1, just ask him how his Mistress H&K PSG-50 D.I.N.O. performs

The classic and very effective CA M24.



Compared to it's brother the trusty M700 (black, now sold)


My very first CA M24. Had seen too much action and I had a lot of trouble fixing it. I sold it for parts.


Quality sniper rifle shine not by their outstanding apearance, but rather by they outstanding capacity to dissapear and kill effectively.


Even during the dead of winter.


But an effective sniper is one that work in team and is willing to brave even the harshest weather condition. (4 snipers in the pic, all soaked wet, and me looking silly for having to run to get in the picture because the camera timer is too short...)

Anybody have any opinions on this TSI SD96B ?


What about TSI products in General?

What in the fuck is a TSI?

All these clone L96's come out of the same factory... They're all the same mediocer quality. They do have some slight problems with upgrades though (Tolerance issues that require you to permanently modify the gun via filing / drilling stuff like that)

Never heard of it. But again, its a clone dude, dont get clone specialty guns. their tolerances are too off to perform effectively and they will never equal the performance of their legit counterparts. For standard AEGs, it wont matter (though if you upgrade a TM and a JG equally, the TM will perform better). Still, cause you are looking at specialty rifles, go big or go home. that is the best advice i can give you atm

Yea, a good sniper platform is going to cost you a shitload of money. No two ways about it.

i will respectively disagree. with regards to a spring rifle, you are 100% correct. but a gas rifle only needs a TB inner barrel in terms of performance upgrades. however, i realize arguing this point with regards to two completely different systems is fruitless.

I've got roughly $1600 into my VSR-10...

[lemegacool]

hmmm i've done modifications on my jg bar10 gspec with laylax parts and so far no tolerance issues parts fit like a charm! (sears, hop up,cylinder stuff) i just got my friend's l96(sexy!) in for upgades... and side by side i think i like the grip of the vsr better , l96 is fucking bulky!!

Find me a good gas sniper rifle that doesn't cost an assload of money.

Here goes nothing!

Precision Cylinder BaRiKaRu-Compo Set / VC - 18,396 Yen
ν-Trigger+piston end - 13,272 Yen
Reciever - 10,752 Yen
Bull Barrel Base (Needed all front bull barrel) - 4,872yen
Front Bull Barrel L - Flute - 8,148yen
Bull Barrel Cap - 1,848 Yen
Front Barrel Series Barrel Spacer For 01,05 or 08 For 04 X12 = 18,144 yen
VSR-10 Long 554mm - 10,507yen

= 85939 yen --> 1,184.57 CAD

1,184.57 CAD
+ 150 CAD (roughly) for my out of production Laylax bolt handle
+ 25 for my Firefly spicy hopup rubber
+ 70 for all my mags
+ 400 for the gun
+ 250 for the scope

= 2079... :'( I thought it was only supposed to be 1600 or so... ... And that's not even factoring in the shipping costs and customs fees.

Well.. You could probably shave about 200 bucks or so off of the cost of building the same gun by not lining the entire barrel with support spacers...


My gun fires 455 FPS with a deviation of 0.2 FPS... I can accurately and consistantly float a BB out to roughly 200 feet. Find me a gas rifle that can fire that consistently

Edit: I forgot to add my spring onto the cost of that... ah well it was only another 15 bucks

[BootYourFace]

Amos you friggin n00b!

[Danke]

What's wrong with gas and spring in one?

Sure it's not in Canada yet but that's only a question of commitment.

That is wrong on many many levels. A gas system needs to produce a consistent amount of gas each time its fired. There are almost no guns that do that unless they are externally fed by a hose and regulator. Please dont post facts like this I know your rather new to the whole "sniper rifle" thing. I am not trying to be a dick I just hate when people post misinformation.
