Be Deadly From A Distance: Sniper Paintball Guns
The game of paintball is becoming more and more sophisticated all the time. Years ago paintballers were basically a bunch of guys running around in somebody's backyard -- today, however, paintball events resemble a professional level, precisely executed military maneuver. It is very common today to have paintball teams structured just like a real military platoon -- which include a platoon leader and also special purpose riflemen such as snipers -- persons who are trained to wait and fire upon their unsuspecting targets from well concealed positions.
I did a little checking on the Internet and found some remarkably sophisticated sniper paintball guns. These paintball guns are really remarkable for their accuracy and for their similarity to actual military equipment.
One model of sniper paintball guns that I really liked was the M-16 Sniper Storm paintball gun, manufactured by Rap4. Priced at just under $350, the model I looked at had an 18 inch barrel as well as a sniper scope. This is a great choice among sniper paintball guns, because the attachments available for this model are very easy to attach to the body of the gun. According to the manufacturer this sniper paintball gun requires only about 10 seconds to field strip -- making it very easy to maintain or repair while in the field.
Another great sniper paintball gun, also manufactured by Rap4, is the MG42 machine gun. One source I consulted currently lists this sniper paintball gun at $960 -- not a bad value considering all that you get with this marker. The MG42 was actually manufactured during World War II by the German army. The M60 machine gun, used throughout the world by United States Armed Forces, is actually a copy of the MG 42. This is an excellent sniper paintball gun, and comes equipped with front bipod legs which extend and lock into position. It has a 12 inch carbon fiber barrel and comes with its own toolkit for maintenance. An excellent weapon, and truly one of my favorite sniper paintball guns, is the MT-65 Elite Tactical custom paintball gun, manufactured by Miltec. Priced at just over $600, this sniper paintball gun is actually designed for police and military training exercises. This is a semi automatic weapon and is regularly used to train law enforcement and military personnel throughout the country. This sniper paintball gun is also extremely durable, requires very little maintenance and has a velocity adjustment mechanism so that it can be used for recreational purposes as well. The MT-65 sniper paintball gun features a collapsible telescoping stock as well as military sights for accurate firing. As you can see, many different designs and types of sniper paintball guns are available today. Whether you are looking for full automatic, semi automatic, or single shot models, if you have the money to make the investment you can purchase a fully loaded, sniper paintball gun which will make you the envy of your teammates -- and feared by your opponents!
