Sniper Rifles

[Hissing_Sid]

I know that it has the ability to mount a scope, but the K98 was used as both a standard infantry and sniper rifle.  At the moment yours is in the standard infantry form.

Don't be so f*cking blinkered.

 

No, it's not a leet US SWAT SEAL SOCOM ranger force recon item but, you know what? There's more to planet earth than mordern US equipment. Who'd have thought it eh?

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is an AIRSOFT forum and, irrespective of the history of the Kar98 (which WAS a sniper rifle in it's day) it's a bloody good airsoft sniper rifle. Get over it.

 

Personally, I've a lot more interest in something a bit rare and interesting like the Kar than for a mass-produced CA M24 with a pretty-boy paint job.

 

Sorry if this seems like I'm over-reacting but I hate it when people can't see that their own POVis only their POV, not actual fact. The Kar WAS a sniper rifle in real life and it most certainly IS one for airsoft purposes.

man you taking a little mistake into the heart too much my friend....not everyone knows everything ..no one does....calm down. If a person that knew everything ..that would be God

[WhiteFeather]

Sid, i know that the K98 was used as a sniper rifle. Im very much aware that there is more then just my M24. The K98 when used as a DM rifle had a scope attached.

 

Forget it its not worth bickering over.

I agree with White Feather that the Kar98 in that form is not a sniper rifle. Of course the original topic doesn't require a scope so I don't mind that it's here, but I think some of you are going overboard on this. I don't think White Feather was angry that no one saw his point of view, he was just stating something he thought.

I understand you too and I think most people do...they are just saying that any rifle accurate enough can be a sniper rifle even without proper optic, no matter whether it looks exactly like an nomral infantry weapon.

But if it looks exactly like an infantry weapon, how do you know it's a sniper weapon?

I think he needs to wrap some burlaps around it to show tht

you can read my post =)

Co2 PDI M24

 

9.5" Ruger Redhawk :-)

Vintorez Sniper AEG

[Spezz]

Can we get some better pics of the VSS Vintorez? It's not something you see every day. And how did you build it btw?

[Samm]

Oh yes please, more Vintorez!

 

I would say he got it from Trapper, but he's in Canada

Just finished this the other day...... mask-off tape was still intact when I took the pics:

 

First time I ever painted a gun.  Supposed to be DPM-type scheme, but the green isn't quite bright enough for Brit DPM.

nicepaint job, very nice, did you paint it while all in tack, or seperate it first?, but nice paint job.

Dragunov SVD

 

Co2 powered still need hopup...

[FeeFyeFoeFum]

Now that is just disgustingly gorgeous DirtySanta...

 

Sigh, I want one....

Sorry, I don't understand exactly, but I think I know what you're asking......the colors were all done seperately in specific order using stencils taken from Brit DPM BDUs I have and a detailed pattern picture I found on the web and printed.

 

I don't have this one pictured in a pretty location, but nice gun just the same:

Old version Tanaka kar98:

[Catchv22]

Uh oh, that VSS Vintorez is full auto capable and clearly against the topics rules.

 

I love how there are full auto sniper rifles in the real world.

[FireFox]

Looks like he took a B-spetnaz put a barrel extension a scope and put the end of a Draugonov SVD to make it into a VSS Vintorez.

[Tripod]

I am pretty sure the VSS Vintorez is from the trapper's conversion kit. I've seen that picture a few times before.

[TIMMYBOYB89]

 

G-Spec underneath all that scrim!

[Tripod]

How do you get the magazine out??

[TIMMYBOYB89]

Theres a space for that

[Tripod]

Any chance I could get a picture? I need to see how it's done.

 

Thanks.

[TIMMYBOYB89]

That picture was taken a while ago, nearly a year in fact and it no longer has the scrim on it, when i next have some spare time ill scrim it back up and send you a few pics.

Yes thats right it's a trappers front end mounted to a the remnants of a AK47S

It's actually semi only as well (Yes I know the real Vintorez is full capable) that way I can have a higher FPS on field then full autos.

yep that was one part of what i meant and i meant did you unscrew off the body of teh L96 before you painted it or did you paint it while the whole gun was all connected and could you give me the web site you got the stencil from?

 

thanks
