#69 to #6, [kendalville/waterloo exit], go to the right thru waterloo, into butler... go passed the McDonalds on the left, when you come up to the "family dollar" store, turn right [federal st.], go over 2 sets of railroad tracks... as soon as you go over the 2nd set of tracks, the road drops down quite a lot... at the bottom of this drop-off, is a road that "T's" into the one your on... turn left onto it and then turn right aprox 40feet from the intersection onto a grassy lane that heads out into a field... thats us... games start at 12noon...

well i dont have a gun first off, and i dont know if there is a difference in sports along the lines of snipers, in paintball they dont exsist, no matter what people say, is it worth buying a sniper rifle?

Well, there are snipers in airsoft. In BIA, its mainly designated marksman. Because they usually go around with guys with AEGs. Here is a good review from Octorfunk, who uses sniper rifles: bpd35.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=1096&page=1I have heard from many sites, that people should go to the AEG type gun, then move on to a sniper role. There are many good sniper rifles on the market now, but most are expensive. I have read that people in larger games have been held down by 1 sniper, do to their gun being so accurate. Their are also clones, which are copies of good guns. The JG BAR 10 is a clone of the Tokyo Marui VSR. The JG will cost you around $170 for a package, which includes 3 magazines, 1 scope, 1 bi-pod, the gun, and a bag of .25 bbs. JG BAR 10s also can just be sold by them selves for around $100-$130. Only problem is, that because it is stock, it won't be that good. Some things you should consider are: -New spring, for a better FPS. FPS isn't everything though, but allows you to use a heavier BB which increases accuracy. -New Sears: If your going to upgrade it, then you'll want to get new sears. Which hold the spring back, when you pull the bolt back. -New Hop-Up Bucking: This is very important. You could have a gun shooting 500 FPS, but won't reach its full potential without a good hop-up. Which adds backspin to the BB. I hear Firefly makes good hop-up buckings. -New Tight-bore Barrel: This will increase the accuracy of the gun, along add some more FPS to it. All of this could add up real fast. Their are also Mods to the JG BAR 10 that add to its FPS which cost next to nothing. By the way, I'm not implying the the JG BAR 10 is the best. I'm just using it as an example One thing you could do, if you still want to be a sniper type player. Yet, don't want to get murdered at closer range. Is to get a SR-25. Which will allow you to have a long barrel, scope, and have semi- auto and full auto capabilities. With this, it would be a good idea to get more accuracy, would mean buying a new hop-up bucking, and a tight-bore barrel. So you can see it can get expensive. However their is a upgrade, by EDGI I believe which is supposed to let the JG BAR 10 hit targets at 300 feet away. Which apparently is supposed to be around $100 + Whatever the internals cost.. Includes a 6.01 Tight-bore barrel.You can also buy some very good internals. Video of proof. Link, about how a tight-bore barrel helps. www.airsoftretreat.com/forums/index.php?PHPSESSID=dee86a951fa725663cfe4773a9e66649&topic=32125.msg384955#msg384955Hope this helps. By the way, I'm not a sniper. This is just stuff I've read about while learning about the sniper role.
