Pretty sweet!

Seems like there is less an less of bolt action snipers.. All these semi & full auto guns

Oh well i'll keep doing what I do

Don't worry. I prefer Bolt Action. Next Sniper rifle I get, it'll be bolt action. Hopefully a Remington 700 :O

haha rob its not really a sniper Its meant to help snipers. Pretty much the sniper can look further out an i can maintain a good cover for them an be like a good 30ft away an not give them away

It's call a spotter,

sniper team typically consists of a sniper and a spotter as described in military doctrines of the United States, Canada and United Kingdom. Both members can perform either role and often rotate between the two. The sniper fires the shot while the spotter assists in observation of targets, atmospheric conditions and handles security of their immediate location and communication with other parties, including directing artillery fire and close air support.

The spotter detects, observes, and assigns targets and watches for the results of the shot. Using his spotting scope, he will also read the wind by using physical indicators and the mirage caused by the heat on the ground. Also, in conjunction with the shooter, he will accurately make calculations for distance, angle shooting (slant range), mil dot related calculations, correction for atmospheric conditions and leads for moving targets. It is not unusual for the spotter to be equipped with a notepad and a laptop computer specifically for performing these calculations.

He also provides the team security, therefore he is usually armed with an assault rifle. It is often the case that the sniper rifle is assigned exclusively to a single person, therefore in the case of rotation the spotter carries two weapons.

Some military doctrines describe a third member known as the flanker. His task is to have observed areas not visible to the sniper or spotter and assist with the team's rear security

oh I am fully aware of the roles of a true sniper " team " but I was just making a general statement of the lack of bolt actions you see in our games. Might be different in bigger games or games @ other places. but I don't think there has ever been more then 2 bolt actions on the field at once. Which I guess is a good thing...

yeah but you be amazed at how many guys who do not, Most every body in airsoft starts off wanting to be a sniper.

I started off being a sniper. Got pretty good at it.. went away after some " drama " and now that I am back I fell into the full auto world. BUT with the purchase of the ghillie i will soon be back to my old ways. I plan on terrorizing the field just like I used to. But this time with a ghillie.. it's going to be so much fun.

Tell ya, the first time you hit that 250ft+ shot.. idk man it's like crack. Gotta have another!

Ya i wanted to be a sniper but i like having the ability if i miss an you know where im at i can switch to full auto an take cover that way an possibly take you out. An i have grown use to hanging around jon when he snipes an helping him find targets an maken my self one so he can get shots An this will also help so i can kinda move away from him an cover him at the same time

Well hopefully ordering this gun in bout a week or so. Just gotta invest in a scope an bipod an i'll be good. Still trying to decide whether to go full sniper or just stick to being a scout. hmmmmmm we shall see how well this gun performs

Ya know I have 2 different scopes and I think 2 different sets of bi-pods over here

haha i'll probably be coming to you for a bipod if you wanna get rid of one lol. An the scope still searching online

snipers are for pussies. haha im just kidding. love you all.
