Snipers

I haven't been here for very long and i've already seen that some of you really don't like snipers or such. I was just wondering why exactly. I don't mean to cause a war here am just curious. I myself love to go out in the woods first and just sit and wait for my buddies to get into range of my A-5 and pick them off one by one. Along with being able to sneak into the woods and move slowly towards them while my buddy fires at them without being seen.

Heh, it also just gives me more practice stalking for the up coming archery season.

Search an thou shall learn.

ughhhh

^^ iv already requested that...

and koyote just broke the 8th commandment of my religion... "Thou shalt not speak of paintball snipers on the tippy forum, else thou shalt be shot"

This has been discussed so many times and basicly we don't hate SNIPERS, we hate SNIPERS IN PAINTBALL. Simply because they don't exist.

Doh!!

HMM.. im actually kinda surprised. I havent been on this forum ina few months...and i dont hear about sniper flame threads anymore..seems like that kinda died out huh?? But yah dude..there used to be a time on this forum where snipers were soo despised by like 98 percent of the forum and there was constant flaming and spamming and arguing on the SNIPER topic.. i kinda miss thsoe days. But yah the forumers dont reallyc are too much for em as i guess u have already figured out.

They were using a closed bolt marker, fixed to fire one shot at a time (Not Semi-auto but you would have to load each ball by hand or something and fire it) at a higher velocity. Possibly even a .50 cal paintball with heavy paint in it (Like airsoft, they use heavier BB's and higher velocitys in high-end guns to acheve more accuracy). You could also have a slight curve in the barrel as well. And hey, at that ROF you could probably use different shaped paintballs(Like a football shape, or minie ball shape or something). I know it would be more expensive, but if many people used them the prices would go down. Plus, you couldnt fire more than 50 shots a day probably.

that mini ball thing is oversaid. im probably wrong with this but wouldn't smaller pb's be better than larger ones? like they would hurt less and that means we could use higher velocities like airsoft, therefore more range.

oh sorry i was thinking that 50 were bigger than normal, stupid me i thought he was saying the opposite.
