I got this rifle less the scope and added my own scope. Either way you cannot lose getting this rifle. Beginner, intermediate, whatever you will enjoy. I therefore recommend this sniper rifle.

Not much actually. If I think of anything I will add it later.

It is about 46" and one heavy sucker (exact weight I am not sure). Yes, the bipod can seem wobbly but it is held in place by a rod as a single point, that said I don't have any issue with it. It does also have a hefty pull when cocking to fire.

Solid construction, adjustable buttplate and cheekplate, shoots fairly accurate.

The bipod that comes with it is okay, consider an aftermarket bipod if you really use it alot. The black matte finish on the barrel scratches easily, a camo wrap goes a long way in protecting it.

This is a great sniper rifle. It is a smoothbore so you can only shoot so accurate but for the price point it's great.

The style of gun, price, easy disassembly and how smooth everything worked.

Adjustable trigger maybe, the trigger is fine but options are always a plus.

You can't go wrong with this gun, its got the power, accuracy and quality to hang up there with the Mauri's at a way lower cost. Also, i recommend using .30 gram bb's

It is sturdy and accurate, plus it came with an extra mag! Overall for the money this is a great bolt action sniper for long time players and entry level. It really gets you into sniping

The bi-pod is sturdy but the mount for the bi-pod IS NOT. I put a little towel between the rail mount and the barrel and it sits fine with little wobble and sound

the hop up is tricky to adjust because you have to use an little wrench to do it. I would order the metal upgrade for it. I have had this gun for 2 years and my trigger box broke after firing more than 10,000 shots. i ordered a new one from Pyramyd today!

This gun is great in its looks and weight. its weight is a little heavy yet its what you would expect from a snipers rifle. and its looks great it looks a little small from a distance but when your holding it it feels like its just right. This is the from of the gun I would recommend( with scope) because without the scope its hard to aim and is just retarded. Also the bb distance, NOT fps, is amazing. Fps is how hard or fast it is, the distance is how far the bb travels. With .20 it will curve up at the end. With .25 or possibly heavier(even though some say heaver bb's are better) it completely dove to the ground at the end. The heavier bb(.25) caries it more accurately( accurate for about 30 yards or around 100 ft.) and faster but cuts the distance in half, the lighter bb (.20) will carry it accurately for about 20 yards or so which is about 60 ft. but will carry it around 200 ft.( which a skilled sniper can still hit someone at).

The barrel its a nice metal and all but if you scrape it even a little it will make a mark. Personally I don't care but to other people who might, it scrapes very easy. You might be able to erase it but it might take a little time. Also the bipod its okay but it will rattle if you start running. Plus it would be best stored bipod off. I usually set my gun standing on its bipod in my closet, and after time it will slide all the way down to the legs even if its locked in place(which is bad because it ruins the locks to the point where the bipod is just not worth it.

The scope its hard as hell to mount( not the actual mounting just getting it so the crosshairs are straight and lined up to the rest of the gun) on the rifle. Even when I got the crosshairs lined up after 30 minutes or so after a couple battles it just went crooked again. Its a great gun over all but the thompson I have is better it shoots as far much less accurate but when your laying 450 bbs every thirty seconds compared to 23 every thirty seconds. But if you have the stealth skills and a back up (Because if you use the sniper rifle at close range your not only cheep but stupid) you might be able to pull this snipers stealth weapon off. So overall GET IT!!!!

This baby is a monster. Extremely hard hitting. it is absolutely amazing. i just got it today and i only fired around 2 magazines and i fell in love with it. the scope is heavy duty and when you look through it, it is crystal clear. weighing 12 pounds, this monster shoots very accurately and is silent. everytime i walk into my room the gun looks so tempting to pick up and hold. The bipod is not wobbly and if you think it is wobbly, it does not affect your shot. Get it. You will not be displeased.

you have to assemble the gun. it can be difficult and read the instructions. It is easy to assemble the gun but it just takes time and patience.

Dont rely on the sling for this gun. it comes with 2 magazines and a speedloader. The sling is good but if you use it too much it could possibly break. use .20 and .25 for the best accuracy and performance.
