 umm im wondering what gun would be best for a sniper based gun...iv been looking at the tippmann A5 and im thinking about getting it with a 14'' progressive barrel. Any suggestions?
Why buy a spyder when you can buy a good gun instead...

Well some people here think that a sniper does not exhist in paintball, but I will go with this one.  Here is what a good setup would be in my mind:

98c

Flatline

Remote Line

4+1 Harness

And if you really want you can invest your hard earned dollars into a new camo outfit or guilee(i know that's spelled wrong) suit to cover yourself up.  It depends on where you will be playing at.

what is the point of sniping i want the thrill of nearly getting shot and running, slidding. is there a thrill in shooting one time at someone and they not know where u are and they dont have a chance in the world in shootingOuch u sounds like a lot of fun

My armson 16 inch rifled barrel is pretty accurate. I would try that, its cheaper than the flatline too.

Procarb, 14" JJ ceramic, stock or no stock, either way works.

The JJ ceramic is freaking awesome, and cheap.

pretty much any tippmann gun, with a 14-18 inch stiffi barrel, a lot less paint picky than a flatline(smaller paint is needed for the spin to fully develope) and whatever else you want, a stock might be good, but try one out first, I was gonna buy a stock and I tried one and hated it, saved me $60.
