Curious about gas sniper rifles
I was just curious as to why we don't see more people using gas snipers... Are they just too inconsistent? What about external rigs? More consistent?

Re: Curious about gas sniper rifles
You just answered your own question, really. At best a gas-in-mag sniper rifle is very inconsistent, subject to cool down, leaky mags, etc. If you tap it for an external rig, you have to run an external rig.
That having been said, external HPA rigs are a great way to run a very consistent and reliable rifle if set up properly.

Killer has a Tanaka and my friend jackson who you might remember walker, has a tapped m700. Not to mention a tapped... mac11 g36 mk1... I think that's all of them. Oh maybe a regular pistol...
Its not necessarially bad but... most people in Airsoft like the realism... and a hose to a backpack to use a gun isn't realistic
