The gun just looks scary. The fps. I shot a friend with this gun from about 20 feet (sorry it's kinda close) and he was bleeding through a sweatshirt. the welt stayed there for about a month.

The trigger box. This would be the ideal beginner sniper (even though it already is don't get me wrong) if it wouldn't have that crappy trigger box.

This is no CQB weapon i hit friends from 100 ft and on and they still cry out in pain. make sure when your pulling the bolt back not to push it down cause this little thingy will come out and your gun wont work. Use at least .3 bbs cause its still not that accurate with .28 because of the fps.

The look and the weight

a little on the exspensive side

The plastic feels cheaper than other plastic airsoft guns I own. The rail for bipod feels like its going to fall off.

I really like the look of this rifle, the weight holds some authenticity. The bi-pod is ok (yet, the rail feels cheesy)

The rail for the bi-pod feels like it could fall off at any given moment. The plastic body feels a little more plastic-like every time I pick up this rifle. It seems to have loosened with only 100 or so shots. The accuracy has got me considering an exchange though. The hop up is too high at it's lowest setting and there is a consistent pull to the left. ( I cleaned a burr off of the safety tip and thought that would do the trick, but, no it must be internal) I am going to shoot it a few more times to be certain it's not a clot of grease from the factory.

This weapon will hurt somebody at close range! The velocity is great! BE SAFE!

Well After about 500 shots, the accuracy was fantastic, but the plastic trigger assembly broke. Pyramid does not sell the metal upgrade, but I have found on online for cheap. Still a great gun. Most reviews anticipated a trigger problem

Great gun. You need to buy it. It is accurate, powerful and owns the battle field.

It comes with too much grease in it but shooting it takes care of that after a little while.

BUY IT!

The power is really really good for a gun at this price.Great starter sniper. Comes with a spare mag and other mags are pretty cheap.

The accuracy could be better but its still pretty good. My upgraded TM DMR has a much better accuracy but the range is about the same. I have confirmed headshot "kills" at 225 ft with this gun.

The bolt pull is a little difficult. I personally dont struggle with it but my little brother can't even pull it back. Make sure your wipe down the oil on the gun. My max range is around 250 feet. ADjust the hop up a little and do some DYIs on youtube. they are pretty helpful. Buy this gun. You won't find anything that parrallels this gun unless you want to buy a TM or maruzen and spend a lot in upgrades.

good weight, adjustable stock, good power, and ok price

better strap, way to much grease

tighten the bolts before a game they always shake loose in shipping and shoot it 100 times before a game or it will fire grease balls out of the barrel, as with any snipper have a side arm and/or a back door and spotter to keep the sneakers away stay chilly

Power Is already unstoppable without upgrade but with the upgrade it's simply chaos on the battle field from a good 450 fps with .36 mad-bull grade bb's this upgrade will make those unwilling opponents scream HIT whether they like it or not.

I would have liked if pyramid air made a complete upgrade! I mean the whole shabang! but this upgrade is good don't get me wrong

do not I REPEAT reveal gun in public I got this gun taken away once this is a mistake to make. HAVE FUN AND BE SAFE
