This is my sniper version of a 98. Its a great gun for rec ball
and i can count on it at all times. the only downside to it is that it weighs so much. You wont be doing much running with this gun and if all else fails you can unscrew the boomstick and use it as a club (jk lol)! http://SniperIceWolf.MyPicGallery.com - Sniper 98 |

What a waste of agood barrel, do you realize you gain no benefits to
accuracy with that long a barrel? and you actually lose effieciency.

nah it works for me, yes i know the air is wasted but it is by a
very small amount, i can run on a 20 ounce tank for 2 days, The accuracy deal is a load of bull s***. it is more accurate than most guns I have played with and every person that i have let play with it says it kicks a**. but you have to realize this is just and i do mean just a rec ball gun. |

I don’t agree with these peeps, but I like it. The barrel isn't that bad. I have a 20" J&J that used to do dreams for my gun, until I recognized the Flatline potential. ------------- Spyder Imagine 2k4 --- -14" Custom barrel -DOP Xcore 8stage X Chamber -DOP Bullet Drop -12v Revvy w/x board ---- |

^^yes if you want to be a true sniper just go with the flatline. -------------

That dosn't look that heavy, and a 20 oz isn't that much weight. It's probably lighter than my .30-06. lol. Anyways, Nice gun. It's your gun, not anyone elses. -------------

definatly think u would be better with the flatline, also it would look a little better, also get the rt or ebolt to put the hopper to good use!

I like the look of the barrel. The flatline ,IMO, would be a better choice for a sniper. Also, I think a remote line would help you alot if you are a sniper. Looks good! ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

whoever asked, no it is not my only gun that i play with, like i said it is only for sniping in rec ball. I use a hybrid autococker and my team mates a-5. if you want to see the a-5 he put a pic up of it. search for his gun under his name "Deadskin" |

i was first to flame... good barrel but too long. I'll leave it
at that, at woodsball, IMO a 8" bigshot is better for sniping you odn't
need 12' cause there's no air bunkers ot tuck into.

Look all yalls argueing about snipers have gotten so old I'm thinking of never opening this forum again. People please stay away from the word snipers. I'm thinkin a lot of these people lost their parents to snipers the word makes them so upset. I'm guesing that everyone knows its a touchy subject here. So ifd someone even mentions it then don't argue with them. A word is only as important as the meaning WE give it not a bunch of proffesional snipers and dictionarys. The reason I'm so mad is from previous posts and I don't want a flame war starting again. ohh by the way nice gun ------------- Notice: The views exspressed in this post do not represent that of the Tippmann Company or the Paintball community but solely the individual who type it. |

get a cool scope, and other odds and ends (maybe like some grips, rocket cockII, ect.) and that will be looking really awsome. |

It doesn't matter that their are no air bunkers to tuck into in woodsball, you still need a 12-16 inch 'cause you can poke the barrel through brush and keep yourself hidden. |

I think OS put it best when he said..... "Why do the "sniper" crowd think that they are the only ones who "sneak" or use "stealth" on the field. I guess the rest of us travel with a brass band and flags waving just so we get noticed." ~OS -------------

dude dont say that. i dont believe in snipering because i dont have the patience. but ive made some pretty incredible one shot hits with my flatline from a distance. but there are such things as snipers when comparing piantball gunsdistance and accuracy. so dont diss. i hate stocks by the way except if you have a remote line. but thats just me. ------------- "my hands are shaking from fear,white from clutching my pride, red from cutting you, and blue from telling lies."

i'm saying that if you see someone and get in a shootout with them, well there is always like twigs and brush infront of you, so you stick your barrel through it and shoot. This keeps your paintballs from hitting the twigs and breaking. And i play speedball if you were wondering. |

Patient. None of my friends are lazy, and they aren't scared; and they seem to always get more kills than I do in a rec. game. So, patient=the key. One of my friends dosn't even use cover. He just stands still on the side of a hill. When I say still, I mean completely still. He has a mesh screen over his mask and lens, and wears full camo. Never gets noticed. I'm the kind of person that runs around and tries to get shot at so I can shoot back, but with my more marksman friends I always get shot... no shooting back. -------------

Im not sure how woods work where you live, but down hurr in Georgia there is brush and crap all the way from one person to their opponent, not just one bush, then free, open space. -------------
