"This is a great gun. If you don't have the money for a UTG L96 than get this one.
It is easy to cock and has good accuracy with .25 and .28. DON'T GET .20 OR .23, .25 IS THE LIGHTEST YOU WANT OT GO.
Pro's
1. great power
2. great range
3. good accuracy
Con's
1. After awhile gets heavy but i took out 1 weight out in the rubber but
2. The mag sometimes loads all BB's in gun but stops after once you use it alot (took 3 games, 7 hours each)
GET THE GUN IT IS GREAT AND HAS NO MAJOR PROBLEMS WELL WORTH THE $$$$$$
AND JUST GET THE SCOPE NOT BI-POD =D

"this gun shoots up to 500 fps with a .20 gram bb. if you dont speak airsoft that means its really fast. i use .20 because .28 are hard to come by unless you order them off the internet, but thats ok because even with .20's if you dial in your scope you wont see much more then a 2 inch difference with your shots, unless its really windy. i dont however reccomend .12's. not only are they not the least bit accurate, but when fired from such a powerful gun they have a tendency to shatter on impact. so unless your friends like having shards of plastic in them, steer away from anything less then .20's.
pro's: very powerful, this thing packs a punch. once it it sighted in, it is accurate within a 1 inch radius usually. long range, this thing shot all the way down my lawn with pin point accuracy(thats over 100 yards).
cons: heavy, dont try running with this thing its about 15 pounds with its bipod and scope attached, you need to sit down and snipe with this thing. if your closer then 50 feet it can pierce skin, so have a secondary weapon for close encounters, your friends will thank you.

"This is a very good gun. It is easy to use, very accurate, powerful, and sturdy. For best accuracy i would recommend .23 - .28s. This is great buy and recommend to all who is looking for a nice rifle, buy it.

"Great gun! i have had this sniper and the add-on scope that comes with it for over a year and it has worked great for me. i am more of the sniper type and so i made a real working silencer for this and with a ghillie suit you have a deadly combo. i use .28s for this and with the hop up just right it shoots amazingly!!! the scope sits nice and high up so it is easy to get a crosshair fast. but if you are wearing a paintball mask that sticks out from your head it is difficult to see through the scope right. i had this gun on my back once and ran through a doorway and the barrel caught the doorframe, gun fell off my back, i picked it up and it was perfectly alright.
GOOD: accurate, relatively consistent, realistic weight, great scope (3-9x, can see well at dusk or even in the dark, amazing), durable
BAD: NOTHING

"Decent weapon for 90 bucks, I fell in love with it for a while. Eventually sold it to a friend and planning to get a gas L96 soon. But doesn't stop me from reviewing it.
Pros:
Good FPS about 460 with .2gs
Great without a scope, accurate
Not too heavy, good weight
Nice Bolt for a springer
Nice for springer wars and you pull that thing out against a DE M4 (Roflmao)
Easy Hopup adjustment
ITS A L96
Cons:
Bad with scope, never accurate
Sling is junk for this weapon (maybe for an M4 better)
Bolt it to fast and the safety will switch on (you'll see what I mean)
No bipod mount included (Find them at Kapowwe, couldn't find them here)
Thats it! Tell me the odds of that for $90. Good weapon, I would say 9/10 but Ill just round up. 5 stars

"this sniper is one of the best buys i have ever done. Shoots amazing for an 80$ rifle. Very good for beginners and for those who are seasoned players, i would recommend this gun if you like to run up abit. Light enough to run fast with and accurate as can be.
Pros:
Accurate at Short and Long Ranges
Long Barrel
In between light and heavy
Shoots nicely with .28s
Cons:
After 50-60 shots you may need tighten the bolt up
Gets a bit heavy with a bipod

"This is a very good gun I would recommend it. You shoud use .25g bbs in this gun because it tends to curve when using lighter. The scope with this gun is also very good and easy to use.
Pros:
Accurate
Easy to use
Looks nice
Durable
Awesome Scope
Cons:
Hard to get clip in sometimes
Only holds 24 bb's (I bought extra clips)
Heavy (about 9 pounds)
Overall this is a very good cheap gun thats you should buy.

"I bought this gun a few days ago, and after setting the scope just right, this thing is so very accurate. I was expecting to be shooting post-it notes as a challenge, but with a railing for support, I can easily shoot lego mini-figs. As many other reviews said, sighting the scope in takes a while. the pellets seem to shoot upwards, so I would say focus on the upper knob first. Along with its amazing accuracy, it has power. I find it putting holes in highlighters and denting the hard plastic on legos. So,
Pros:
Amazing power
Amazing accuracy
Not too bad price
Cons:
A little rubber head on the normal/hop-up switch could have been nice

"This gun is as bad as it gets. For a gun that is only $78.99 this gun is awsome. i've only had it for 2 day and i like it a lot .What i like about it is the weight, feel, and the looks.I have only used this gun in 1 war and the thing i dislike is having a long war with it.

"So, About two months ago, i purchased this rifle. My first impression was, Very heavy. I was used to an extremely light little springer from Walmart. When i picked up this rifle, after assembling it, i said to myself "Wow, A very nice weight, Close to the real steel!" I loaded it with some .20's and gave it a try.
After a few shots, i knew that .20's were not for this gun. They curve up and around too much, there's just too much power. After loading it with .25's, i was in Airsoft Heaven. This gun shoots so straight, i could peg one of my friends in the Cpl. patch on his left arm from damn near 150 feet away. It still had enough power to make him yelp like a little girl.
I purchased a separate scope than the one suggestion as an option. in my opinion, i like my scopes to be down closer to the rifle bore for that sleek look and for sake of accuracy. Even with a scope a mile high up, this rifle could out-perform any other rifle on the field. It shoots a good solid FPS, and a deady accurate shot.
there were a few problems. After about a week of use, i needed to give it a tune up. (Lube, cleaning, The basic stuff) But after that, it was back to amazing quality and shooting like a champ. Another notable problem was the bolt. It feels perfect on the pull, and clicks into place nicely, but the end of it comes loose every few weeks or so, or with heavy use. This, however, is a very easy fix. Just take one of the hex nuts provided and tighten it back up!!
Pros:
-Very good FPS
-Very rugged, a good solid build
-Weight
-Accuracy is AMAZING with .25's
-It just looks intimidating, especially when looking down the business end.
Cons:
-Needs regular maintenance, but what gun doesn't?
-Weight: Can be a little heavy for smaller players or those not used to it yet
-bolt comes loose every few weeks. _easy fix_
-Your friends may want to steal ir for a few rounds _:(

"This gun is amazing. I have had it for 2 days now and is great. I have had no problems whatsoever. The only thing that is a downside is loading the clip. Sometimes when i put it in it wont go al the way. This might only be with my. Some people say that the sling is bad but it is pretty good. I have been able to walk around the house without touching the gun and it has not broke. I got the $55 dollar upgrade and it is the bomb. The scope is a little tricky to sight but once done is great.
Pros:
nice quality
full metal barrel
great feel.
nice weight (just to make it more realistic)
upgrades are great.
cons:
clip is tricky
hard to sight in scope.
Get this gun!!!!
