koxdipy Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 I haven't found a topic about this rifle, so here we go. Based on the Finnish Sako TRG-22. Available in black, tan or OD, comes with a full or tactical stock and the scope mount. New design adjustable trigger group Fully adjustable stock (cheek piece and buttstock) 23 rounds new design gas powered magazine Light weight and smooth cocking bolt system Full metal reinforced construction Quick detach bipod CNC 6063 lower receiver and solid nylon fiber stock 6.04 high precission copper inner barrel Standard FPS is 350-380 FPS, Bipod and scope mount are included in the package! https://nlairsoft.com/nl/nieuws/item/ares-mid-range-sniper-rifle.html I haven't followed the airsoft news for quite some time, has Ares improved on their quality? I have to admit that Ares makes some very sexy sniper rifles. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Ares guns have some ok internals but beyond that they suck. However the idea of a short folding stock rifle is quite nice but personally I would have rathered they were spring. Still nice to see. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 You know what? +1 to ARES for trying to make guns no other manufacturer has. I recall their CEO said a long time ago that he's a "gun nut", and wants to make unique and obscure guns not available otherwise to airsofters. Too bad their engineers are high or on PCP 24/7.

'FireKnife' I have no idea if this is based on their other systems like the aw338, the co²/spring change system of the msr338 or something new. I wouldn't be suprised if they release a spring version later on. What is the idea behind the 2 scope rings on one end? Link to post Share on other sites

One does seem bigger than the other two. As for the idea of the gun in spring version, all for that. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

bjorn Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Crack on then! Get it bought! +1, I wanna know as well. TRG rifles are well known in Northern Europe, would like to own one in airsoft too. Link to post Share on other sites
NeoVeNoM Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Gas sniper, sniper gas. I wonder how many gas snipers so far have actually been known to work decent OTB? I don't follow that niche at all. Spring snipers are much more interesting due to their consistency. If Ares would make a spring version out of this, chances are it will be like the M700 and msr models, which are nice to look at... . Link to post Share on other sites

DJradio Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I was certainly surprised by the two piece stock. It makes me wonder how well that might fit together and if there will be some movement at that attachment point. Link to post Share on other sites
scorch Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 2 piece stock, with a sling point on each piece? Asking for trouble IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
BLZeebub Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Pretty much the first thing any sniper buyer does is try get the thing to range as far as possible so im a tad confused at making a 'mid range' sniper? Or do they mean its not a cheap one, nor a stupidly over priced one? B-) Link to post Share on other sites
DJradio Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I think they are trying to use "mid range" in a military sense to help name their replica as the Sako TRG 22 would have a shorter range then the anti-material rifles (like a .50 Barrett etc.). Link to post Share on other sites
