Things I liked:

I'm new to airsoft so this was a learning experience. The gun is long and heavy. The stock is plastic but it's not cheap feeling (to my hands). The bipod is fine but it twists a bit as others have noted. You can fix it yourself if you want it fully rigid. I started out slinging .43g BBs and they are a bit too heavy for this gun stock. I found that .28g are much better suited. The bolt is very smooth. The trigger is actually quite good for the price.

Things I would have changed:

Nothing really. It would be nice to have upgrades to this gun (maybe L96 would work but I'm not sure). A better spring and piston as well as a precision bore option would be great.

    Things I liked:

    Gun is built well and comfortable to shoot and hold. Action works well and is fairly smooth. Trigger pull in good for a airsoft rifle. The accuracy was terrible, I tried BB weights from .02 to .04 gms. with no significant difference. Hop up worked but just made the thing more in-accurate. I shot from a bench rest at thirty feet groups were over 12 inches in diameter at 50 ft. the groups were 24 inches or greater evn after changing scopes iI was unable to do any better. The clip is difficult to insert unles it is started just prefectly into the gun. I don't know how they got such great goups in the video but I was un-able to.

    Things I would have changed:

    Do something about the accuracy, otherwise the gun is ok.

    What others should know:

    I would not reccomend this gun as it is now.

    Awesome gun, I've had this gun for almost one year. .accurate, I hit a guy from 50-60yds!!

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Get a scope. You will have to put a new spring and hopup system after awhile. Just get the upgrade for the 3rd-4th gen models and you will be set!

    What others should know:

    buy a scope (I bought a lepers 5th gen.), when i bought it i forget a scope but even with out the scope it's still super accurate. And if you want a good target try the GAMO plinking target it's $50 but so worth it

    Things I liked:

    The accuracy and power that you have for a great price, also i have had my gun since march and it is very reliable

    Things I would have changed:

    it can loose power ever once in a while, but not often enough to deter you from this product

    What others should know:

    you can get amazing product suport from leapers if you ever need it

    Things I liked:

    This is a really, really accurate gun. The bipod is really steady, although this is a pretty light gun, and really mobile. I think my favorite part is the bolt though, because it is just so smooth and quick. The hop-up on the side makes it easy to adjust for range.

    Things I would have changed:

    You can't really pivot on the bipod, which is unfortunate.

    What others should know:

    Get the scope pack if you don't already have a scope you want to use on it. It's cheaper than if you buy the scope seperately, and it comes with the necessary weaver rings.

    Things I liked:

    Good bolt, good gun, good sling, good bipod, everything about this gun is excellent

    Things I would have changed:

    Needs a more compatible rail

    What others should know:

    This gun needs a scope. You are probably going to have to buy a weaver ring (I learned this the hard way. It has good accuracy, but the bbs tend to curve if they are under .25, but i got pretty good accuracy with .20

    Things I liked:

    The gun is built very well, lightweightcompared to other snipers. I just got it yesterday and it is my favorite gun of my shotguns, machine gun and pistols. I definetly recommend this gun for anyone, starter or pro. There is an adjustable hop-up switch on the side of the gun which will prove usefull in the coming battles. The barrel is full metal and and the rest is ABS which is pretty strong plastic. It is very easy and smooth to cock.

    Things I would have changed:

    Maybe an extra mag because the 2 mags it come with hold about 15 rounds.

    What others should know:

    Great for begnners and pros and again I definetly recommend it

    Things I liked:

    The gun comes with a bipod which can be adjusted up and down. The gun is well balanced and super easy to use!!!!

    Things I would have changed:

    The only thing i would cahnge would be that the bipod is kind of heavy for the gun and off sets the balance.

    What others should know:

    I had a few problems with the magazines not loading right but they were only minor. This gun has amazing accuracy i can hit human size targets 140ft away!!!!!!!

    Things I liked:

    Extremely accurate compared to most other guns. Definitely commands respect of the field. Easy enough cocking mechanism.

    Things I would have changed:

    Bipod should be more stable, include replacement pins for bolt within package

    What others should know:

    Bolt occasionally needs oiled, also there is a series of tiny pins within the bolt that holds the bolt handle to the bolt, it is very easy to push the pin and if done so the pins will slide outside the handle, this happened recently and now i can no longer cock the gun, it is useless as is, bad design but other than that worked great till i lost the pin

    Things I liked:

    The gun looks great. It has a great feel and great weight. The plastic on the gun is of a pretty good quality. It assembles easily, snugly, and permanently. The bolt is solid as is the trigger and the adjustable stock. The sling is probably the best quality I've ever received but i never use it. The bi-pod is of better quality than i expected. Sure it gets loose maybe once a month but anyone with an allen wrench set can fix it in about 5 seconds. Tech stuff So the power on this thing is pretty awesome stock. Right around 460 like it says. The bolt pull is easy and relatively quiet. Useful for a sniper. The trigger pull is the same. The stock inner barrel is a pretty nice aluminum 6.04 mm tight-bore. A major improvement over the past models. Accuracy i was worried about accuracy after hearing a lot of things saying this was a joke beginner gun. Maybe it was in previous generations, but the gen. 5 is a pretty nice gun. The hop-iup may not be the best but it does a pretty good job and keeps the heavier bbs dead center for the length of their flight. Can hit a telephone pole consistently at a measured 150 ft with .30 bbs.

    Things I would have changed:

    The biggest problem with this gun is it is nearly impossible to upgrade internally. You can strap everything in the world onto the gun but the insides almost have to stay the same because of a closed bolt and no easily available parts. Its alright, because the stock parts are great but still.

    What others should know:

    -Best gun you'll ever get for the price. -Shooting at 460 fps I would say use at least .30 -when the gun sits unused, the first few shots after seem to curve down. Don't worry about it, it fixes itself in about 4 shots, just take some warm up shots before a game.
