Cheap Sniper Rifle Kits (Tippmann A-5 or SAR12C)

I want to purchase a sniper rifle kit to start target practicing for THE BIG HAPPENING.
I was looking at the SAR12C, Tippmann A-5 or maybe something from the BT series.

Has Sup Forums purchased a sniper rifle marker yet?

. There will be enough of them laying on the ground unfired.

This belongs on /k/

was going to suggest you take this to /k/ but then realized you are talking about paintball guns so maybe you should take it to reddit specifically r/howdoikillmyself

/asp/ actually.

But I was wondering if Sup Forums was target training with paintball guns considering most of them have been on 51/50's and have had their 2nd amendment rights infringed upon.

Want to go cheap? Norinco M-14, about 600$ here + another 150 for a half decent scope. Want to go ghetto cheap? russian SKS is only about 220$ and the same for a decent scope

Op would be better off with a Smith and Wesson m&p 10

i would never trust my life to a norinco. chinese garbage

hey, user asked for cheap

That is cheap.

>cheap sniper rifle

there's an oxymoron if i have ever heard one.

best be goin 300WIN or bigger if you mean to man-kill at range. thats going to cost you for a sub-MOA kit. cost you a shit ton.

anything less is not a sniper rifle. sorry.

The SAR12C SASS is $1399.

I'm not that cheap, user.

Why not airsoft? Seems to be getting more and more popular here. Also pellet guns (air rifles) are really great for target practice, and much cheaper to buy and shoot than firearms.

Those are paintball guns?

Doesn't the A-5 have a cyclone feed hopper

Do you have a 1000m shooting range and hundreds of hours to practice at?

They're just not as fun when you get shot in the face.

Cyclone a shit

T. X7 Phenom owner

I hated them. Constantly jammed...

Paintball is better than air soft

Also the FS rounds that the SAR12 shoots probably mimic actual bullet ballistics better than air soft pellets.

Doesn't everyone? If you dont, you better get your ass innawoods now. The chimpening is coming as soon as the weather warms

I live close enough to a gun range to hear the boys down at the range popping off right now and I've got plenty of time.

>SAR12C SASS
uh, isn't that a paintball gun? We can buy rifles here burgerlad

Works fine on semi or burst but as soon as you go on auto it just can’t keep up, especially if you upgraded to a more efficient bolt, because the cyclone feed uses wasted blowback air to slam the next ball in, when you don’t waste as much it can’t keep up. But if you don’t put in an aftermarket bolt you’ll get 300 shots out a full tank if you’re lucky.

>much cheaper to buy and shoot than firearms.

yeah and nothing at all like shooting a real rifle, especially a rifle that is accurate.

youll never learn breathing or trigger pull with fuckin 2lb airshit garbage.

get a bedded rifle with a $300 trigger polished by a blacksmith for a 2lb break. then you can start working on your rifle marksmanship. until then your playing with toys and it has no application to real sniper rifle use.

and this is saying NOTHING about charting the dope for your precious $3000 (minimum) rifle and learning that rats nets of a skill.

I can't legally own a gun for another 4 years.

There’s not really such a thing as a sniper paintball gun since they all fire the same distance and a paintball isn’t exactly accurate.

That said, you can get a Tiberius 8 pistol or rifle which has the ability to shoot first strike rounds which have longer range than a regular paintball.

T. I used to own the SA-8, a police pepper ball version of the T8.

don't use 5.56mm caliber. Get a 7.62mm NATO or larger caliber. Sniping is best done from distance and you need a heavier bullet to not be affected by wind and brush.

military uses either 308 or 50 cal for precisely that reason

>can't legally own a gun for another 4 years.
Well Eliot, that hasn't held to many people back in the past. Just order one on-line, even us cancucks can do it, or private sale, that's still legal here as well, no one gives a fuck about licencing

>paintball guns
just get a real gun.

> wants to buy a sniper rifle

A sniper rifle is defined by who us using it, not the characteristics of the weapon.

Most people on /pool/ would be buying larper rifles.

If you want to buy a sniper rifle, you better buy a sniper, too.

Yeah but what's the point of owning those toys?

>Phone fag: stipulated

s/pool/pool/;

Fucking autocowrecked

Actually there are rifled paintball guns, I.e paintball snipers, that use special ammo, they kinda look like slugs

>SKS for 220
Not here leaf.

Read: because before the hot war, comes the meme war.

>sniper rifle
You have to be 18 to post here kiddo.

Buy yourself a marlin 725 and when you can make cloverleaves you can consider buying a precision rifle in a small or large rifle caliber.

>glows

Lol. What do you know about precision shooting? Can you reload? What caliber were you looking at? Do you know how much a decent optic for precision shooting costs?

No. For target training .22lr is better. cheaper

I wouldn't put a $150 piece of glass on any of my rifles even if it was free.

Stick with Trijicon, EoTech, Aimpoint, Steiner as far as CCO's or Dots.

Tippman makes paintball guns and real guns?

>Not here leaf.
what do they cost there? They are the cheapest semi-auto that everyone gets here. If you want to compare shit price ranges though, I paid 1400 for my bushmaster, which is fucking robbery

I'm talking about air rifles, not airsoft. They get way more than 2 lb. You can definately practice trigger pull and breathing with it very well. Mine gets to around 26 lb and shoots. 22. I use it for sport and I don't really have the intention to switch over to firearms because of the ammo price. It's got a Hawke scope on it. The rifle itself cost me about 450 euros and the scope around 300. Dollars and euros are about the same now last time I checked.

Sorry, I think you were talking about 2lb as the trigger pull, not as in the gun gets 2 ft.lb of energy? I did upgrade my trigger to something match-grade but it was actually very good out of the box.

I have one really propper air rifle, the recoil is harder than most .22 that ive shot. Might just be the mechnical motion of the spring, I don't know, but for target practice its pretty good. Add a decent scope and you can start trying to hit the same hole twice from 20m

>air rifles
I bought one of pic related last year, are you guys allowed to have that? (I do have a firearms licence though called a PAL here).257 cal 1300fps, it's as deadly as a .22lr

whats the range? how can you tell what your breath does at 500yd if you cant shoot that far?

does your kit even supersonic stabilize projectiles?

yeah thats dope but this thread is talking about sniper rifles. i.e. 300yd+ shots only.


i dare say that your trigger aint gunna pull a shot unless your shooting sub half MOA

whats that? 5.56 is less affected by wind than 7.62?
NEAT

oh wait you said the opposite.
well you now stand corrected.

why? FASTER BULLET
why? FLATTER TRAJECTORY = LESS TRAVEL TO TARGET

haha wow. 2500 was too much for 1000+yd shooting i guess i just hate staring at fuckin heat through my scope or maybe you just never shot long range in your life before.

Yeah we have no restrictions on air rifles or pistols, other than an age requirement of 18. Don't you guys have an FPS restriction? Or is that only for pistols? I also have a Crosman 2240 pistol and I remember reading in the Canadian forum that they have to be somewhat careful in tuning it to not go above the allowed limits. We also are allowed silencers which is great because it means I can do some target shooting inside my urban house, even late at night. My rifle is an RWS (Diana) 460 in .22. I have shot your rifle btw, it's really nice.

About 200 yards if I want to hit a can consistently. Breathing matters even when you were shooting at 10 yards. We are talking about OP getting into some target practice without spending a fortune. He suggested a paintball gun. An air rifle is a great middle ground for him and seeing as he doesn't seem to have any experience at all, it's a really great way for him to get into sport shooting. He can move on to powder burners eventually.

>great way for him to get into sport shooting.
yeah alright. ammo would be cheap as shit at least.

whats your drop at 200yd? whats your best groups?
DESU i don't know much about non-bang rifles. i am curious. you shoot off of a big tank like paintball or those little 8oz cartage?

you can get a decent .22LR and practice out to 100yd more or less for a fair price. but ammo im sure would cost more.

>Don't you guys have an FPS restriction?
Yup, is 500fps (I think) but getting a gun licence is fairly easy. Air guns are fairly popular here because no one pays attention. You can buy a break-barrel 450fps .22 one from Walmart then order a spring upgrade kit from burgerland that will put it in the 1200 fps range. No one really cares (for now at least)

The drop does get pretty crazy at that distance. A guy on youtube did a video on how far an air rifle can kill, but he used something much larger than a .22, the same rifle Canadian user posted actually if I'm not mistaken. Pretty interesting if you wanna check it out. Best group at 200 yards I don't really know. At 100 I would say about 2 inches, but that took quite a lot of practice.

here's a poorfag tier rifle

lol did you tell people "you're alright, don't come to school tomorrow"

Oh and yeah the high rifles shoot with those air tanks. The little cartridges also perform fine at smaller distances though. My pistol uses those. My rifle is spring-powered though, which is a lot more challenging, but also more fun to me because of that.

>Best group at 200 yards
From a top tier air rifle it is shit, maybe a foot if you are lucky, 50 -yards though you can nail a rabbit straight though the eye. I does depend on how heavy your pellets are, I like to use 30 grain (which is fairly heavy)

I didn't know sniper rifles were legal to own.

The main problem with practicing on .22lr in Europe is that many countries require a certified gun range to do so ...
(so GBB airshit makes sense to train stuff that's not dependent on too much accuracy in your garden, as "combat" training with an AR is illegal, even at gun ranges...)

OP likely won't have the problem, so 22s make more sense, especially if you get a decent one and add a suppressor later.
Considering that the SAR12C is similar in price, why not invest the money in a top of the line .22 that actually has some use when SHTF?
volquartsen.com/departments/22_lr_rifles

not to shit on your weapon of choice but my groups with a semi auto 223 at 100yd is sub 1/4"

i do think that air guns are a good entry system to guns in general.

a lot better than nothing.

I'm pretty sure I can hit a can at 200 yards. It's maybe 150 meters no?

While in the ER I red pilled the fuck out of my doctor on homosexuality and how psychiatrists are hurting people by telling them they're normal and support bug chasers and their behavior.

She had no rebuttal because she knew everyday she went into work she was committing ethical crimes against those she swore to help.

I was held against my will for 3 days when I was not homicidal or suicidal.
It was political psychiatric abuse during the height of the election season.

That weekend truly opened my eyes for the first time how scary it is to be at the mercy of liberal doctors who don't believe Hillary Clinton is a spirit cooker and that it's just a "Russian conspiracy".

Yeah I would never say they are anywhere close to on par with a powder 223 at that range, but definately the basics of trigger pull and breathing, and some understanding of bullet drop and shooting position can be learned with an air rifle. If I remember correctly the Hitler Jugend trained with them. They have obviously improved since then too.

Get a RPG this what you will need for the BIG Happening

are...
are you fucking serious?
just get a gun and start practicing because your super 1337 manuevers within 100m of an enemy force with paintball guns will get you lit the fuck up with anything firing real bullets.

>pretty sure I can hit a can at 200 yards
If use use a light weight pellet, something in the 5-6 grain range, and have a top notch rifle and scope. I've hit beer cans at 100 meters before using lightweight aluminum pellets, but if you want to actually remove varmints (coons bunnies etc) 40-50 yards is your max range for an air-gun

I feel you man this is why I will never see a shrink

apparently they are required by law to report on you if you so much as say "I don't like mudslimes/gays etc", as a hate crime
