Product Information:
Be prepared for the best under $200 off the assembly line sniper rifle on the market. This was my first "real" airsoft gun I purchased. By that I mean a gun capable of shooting over 50 feet and isn't clear plastic. When you receive it in the package, it will be in multiple parts (the barrel, the stock, 2 magazines, a bipod, and all the screws necessary to piece it together.) It takes about 5 minutes most to put it all together and is quite the beast. If you hate carrying a moderately heavy weapon, you will not enjoy this rifle unless you plan to sit still the whole game. it weighs a hefty 8-9 lbs without the bipod last I checked. The bipod adds an additional 2 lbs to make it a total of 10 lbs. That may not sound like a lot, but after playing 4 straight hours with it, you will not want to move. It has an adjustable butt stock, and two sling mounts. The rail is perfect for any optics you may want. It has a simple hop up adjustor and safety switch. Every part of this rifle is durable and capable of taking punishment. The only issue I have had with it is its stock sear set. It seemed like one of the only parts in the entire trigger box that was made of pot metal. The sear itself had ground away over the course of only 4 months of use, and then proceeded to cause the rifle to slam fire itself as well as not be able to be cocked properly. The fix is an expensive $35 for such a small piece, but if you replace it with a steel piece there should be no more problems.

Pros:
-Super accurate with anything above a .2
-Comes with a high quality bipod
-Threaded inner barrel and adapter
-Extremely durable
-Easy to disassemble and put away
-Good hop up unit
-Adjustable butt stock
-High power
-Comfortable in your hands

Cons:
-Crappy stock sear set
-A slight pain to remove the orange tip to get to the threaded barrel
-HEAVY
-Requires constant cleaning
-Did I mention heavy?
-Shatters any .12 BB's and .2 BB's within a shorter distance than 75 ft.
