Alrighty So i started looking around. And i remember one of the guys had an A5 with some upgrades and a laser sight and some kind of stock( i dont think it was a stock it was that metal bar with the thing that curves like a shark fin at the end). I was pretty impressed but i was looking around and i saw a few stuff but i just dont know. I dont have much money... mabe about 400 or 500 with mine and my parents money...but if you have ideas over my range tell me anyways. If you have pictures of your sniper gun post it up here!

Man, your going to get lit up for wanting to be a "sniper"...
And you posted this in the wrong place. Lets move this to Upgrades & Customizing shall we. Im guessing from your description that he had a BPUSA folding stock. Something like this?  Edited by Enos Shenk |

Well, like i said, i might just do a little of both. But a sniper gun would be awesome. And Plus, we play at a huge woodsball field with a bunch of games that would be great for snipers...but has anyone ever tried this before that can tell me about it?

look, everyones gonna tell u this, there are no snipers in paintball, only mis-informed noobs with flatlines sitting in one spot for an entire game, let your sniper dreams die and wise up. if u just wanna shoot long distances and cut through brush get a tippy with a flatline. but dont use the "s" word in this forum or u will inevitable get flammed. cheers. |

if you want to be a sniper and are gonna play woodsball this is what i would suggest sould be in your price range 98c 125$ flatline barrel 109$ this barrel adds backspin and increases range and accuracy responce trigger 70$ uses excess gas to reset trigger allowing for faster trigger pull expansion chamber i would get the the tippmann kit its realtivy cheap for what ya get 45$ this will increas consistency =ing accuracy after that get paint, co2 and field addmission dont get a stock they are over rated i perosnally like the butt stocks for the end of co2 canisters but thats me oh and maybe a rocketcock 15$ this covers your back bolt and keeps out dirt and paint
thats a good setup for a sniper/whatever it will be accurate and have good range good luck |

98 custom will be the best choice. stock, flatline, response and a remote coil will help. A-5's are AMAZING but they the 98c is the best sniper

dark light dont forget the double trigger and eletronic loader to go with that rt. that would probaly be one of the bestwoods ball setups. and maybe even a stock and a remote 98-130 response-70 exp chamber & vert bottle-50 flatline-105 double trig-20 stock-55 remote-30 evoII(this is what i would go with if i had a r/t)-70 grand total-530 ( i know this is a little bit over ur price budget but this would be one of the best "sniper" setups) and besides if u really want to stay within ur budget just eliminate the remote and stock that will bring u down to about 445(u dont really need them they would just be kindof cool) Edited by tippmann505 |

ive wanted a spyder Fenix since they came out, very beautiful gun, way to pricy for a Spyder tho If you are looking for a longer shooting gun i suggest buying a Pro-Carbine, They can accept A-5 Barrel threads so you can get a 21'' barrel not sure how it works tho, Pro-Carbines are a bit pricey becasue of there design but are a awesome marker no less Edited by Doyle182 |

Well, to play devils advocate for a moment ... If you want to be a "sniper", meaning if you want to be able to take people out with one shot, then practice. The gun isn't the most important thing to be a "paintball sniper", you need skills. At least 95% of it is you. You have to practice shooting, practice getting the drop on people etc. Start by just going out into the woods someday with your gun for a couple of hours. For what it's worth, my friend Steve was considered a "sniper" ... his trick was not to shoot until he saw the whites of their eyes. It works surprisingly well. |

I think(jaan) said it best Just practice with what you have,don't go out and play all the time. take paper plates with you and shoot them at diffirent ranges and see where you'r gun shoots at.then when you play you will find the more you practice the better you will get.

Just get a 98 Custom and a good barrel (not over 14". 21" is just noob crap, Doyle). Then, practice practice practice! "Sniper" in the true military form is not likely in paintball (nor is it smart in most cases). I like to call my position "The Tactical Middle-player", or TTM. I stay in the Middle (rather than back because everyone is close in woodsball). Then I only used tacticaly placed shots to hit my target withen only a few well-placed shots when they peek out of a bunker. To do this you have to be quite and cammoed and well familiarized w/ your gun. Practice placing your shots from a while back.

My brother has an A-5 with a flatline and a scouting scope. It ROCKS. If he wanted, he can tag someone 100 feet away or more. Personally, I have a 98 Custom and I'm gonna put a 14 in barrel and a red dot scope on it. Just an idea!
