Product Information:
This is the Echo 1 Advanced Sniper Rifle. I received this gun and immediately went and used, (without scope mind you) in the mountains of Oregon with my friends. I camped and camped for at least eight hours and waited for someone to come my way. I didn't get any action. I had one or two in my sights but the shot wasn't good. I went back to camp and thought about a better position. The next morning we went out and I found a good position under some brush in a bush. It overlooked a little pond and a hill that went over it. I saw the opposing team up near a ridge and they split to cover some area. My friend John was a sniper himself and took position in a tree of all places. Stupid move. The gun is so quiet I took out John and he immediately yelled "Hit". His team kinda scattered further into the field and I took out one more. It was perfect. The hop up was superb once dialed in. And it was right in the back of his neck. I have a good aim and it took awhile to get used to the feel of the gun without a scope. But once you get used to it, it can become a veteran snipers best friend. The bipod is really good and smooth for me. The overall weight of the gun is pretty dang heavy but real balanced. The bolt is smooth as butter when you pull it back. And the quietness of this gun is so incognito. =D I would recommend this gun to anyone who has been playing for awhile, or someone just starting and wanting to be a star sniper on your team. (Side note) Your gonna want to customize your gun to fit the environment your in, in terms of camo. That means, green, yellow, black. And that sorta stuff. I covered up the bolt with some cloth because it shines and gives away your position in a snap. I love the pistol grip. Its extremely comfortable and I love the way it feels in your hand. It may look a little strange to your teammates. A couple laughed at me and asked if it was my sidearm. And then I said no... Its my tattoo needle. And with 480 fps this will leave a MARK. Extremely powerful I recommend you use a heavier BB. Like a .28 or even a .30. They fly straight and hit their mark.

Coming from a sniper veteran, I've used the R700, KJW M700, and yes... I was fortunate enough to use the ARES PGM for a few hours. This can be tacked up with some of the best guns I've EVER used. I can't wait to get a scope. THOOOMP! Right between the eyes! Hehe...

Pros:
-Smooth bolt loads like a dream.
-Quiet if used at the right shots. (Preferably when someone is screaming OUCH)
-FPS is godly.
-Fly's straight.
-Extremely comfortable.
-Nearly all metal. (Extremely durable)
-Friends will laugh at its looks but then cry at its sting.

Cons:
-A little heavy but extremely balanced with the bi-pod.
-Mag can get stuck if you try to jam it in there.
-Hop up hard to adjust. But not a problem.
-Best to purchase a scope with it for beginners.
