Those would be marksmen.  I've never in my life heard of a sniper who's primary weapon is a standard issue rifle or a carbine.  Even marksmen fill the role of "accurate, longer range than usual shots".  Honestly, getting within 10 feet of someone and picking them off isn't so much sniper-like as it is Special Forces-like.

edit: damn old posts and their foul trickery!

Anyway, the sniper kits will accually hurt your game, and are just to look cool. Anyway, www.specialopspaintball.com and www.opsgear.com should have it.

By the way, the longest sniper kill was by a Canadian, and it was definately not done with a Barrett.

Master Cpl. Arron Perry of the Canadian Armed Forces in Afghanistan during combat in 2003. Using a .50-caliber MacMillan TAC-50 rifle, Perry shot and killed an Afghan soldier from a distance of 2,430 metres (7,972 ft) (Aprox 1.5 miles).

The record was set during Operation Anaconda when a Canadian three-man sniper team from the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, (PPCLI), set the new record with a shot on a Taliban fighter.

The bullet was in the air for four seconds and dropped 146 feet. About 250 meters longer than Carlos Hathcock's famous shot.



It wasn't Arron Perry, it was actually Rob Furlong.

I can't fathom someone being able to make a shot like that on the first shot.



Well that's because it is unfathomable and it actually took him three shots to kill him.

Ammolord, two things regarding your sig:

Welcome to the forum, there's lots of good stuff here if you look around a bit.

Edited Note:  Although the corrections are partially because I'm anal and stuff like that bothers me, it is also because if you ask for help/advice some of the people who respond will base their responses off of the information in your sig.

k tnx man. il have to change that.
