Not too bad.  I'd get a smaller mag.

I would trash the mag and do something else with the red dot, but otherwise its pretty cool.

that mag is so out of place, thats a barret mag, not a m-16 sniper varient mag, get something that fits, otherwise, it looks ok

Mag does look a little out of place. You should mill off the "Tippmann 98 custom".

i kinda like the look of the mag. Granted it doesnt fit the general style, but i think it looks good simply because an M-16 like mag would be too far forward like oh so many of them are. its your choice. do what you wanna do


Posted By: Vicarious_TooL
Date Posted: 02 July 2006 at 3:03pm
the reason he has the mag is because its a sniper and if u ever get a chance to veiw most sniper rifles in real life thats what they look like

I think it's actually one of the decent attemps at milsim.

It still looks like you just bought everything though.

I wanted to go with a different feel then the normal m4 look.  I went with the barrett mag because of the higher cal. style.  I have a m4 mag, but dont like the look on a 98.  the barrett gives it a solid feel.  Im throwing a bi-pod on it and will pick up a cyclone feed too.  i have already painted the tippman 98 on the side as well as the hoes black.

Thanks for all the comments.  I think it looks great but i llike to hear what others think.

I wanted to hybrid the design.  So I took the .50 cal mag and took the feel from a m4 and there it is.  I didnt want to mod it after any real guns.  Just wanted to give it my own feel.

Looks good. I like the .50 cal mag on this one. The handguard is what most people are probably not liking since it's an M4 guard. Try taking off the top rail and the two side ones and leave the bottom one for your bipod. It will give it a somewhat smoother look to it.
And for your "suppressor". Is it for looks or is it home made to work?

All in all I like it.

Thanks for the advice partner.  I am going to try to take the rails off tonight.  Suppressor is for looks and adds a little extra weight to the front. I felt like it was too light.
