Just wanted to get some insight to what you guys think about sniper rifles gas vs. spring. i'm looking into getting one and was looking for some advise on which ones i should look at.

gas = high fps out of box

thanks for that. how bout cost to upgrade a spring to about 550fps?

talk to snoop but you are looking at zero trigger too, i believe because without that it is very stiff. Buy I do not know for sure. I just posted this cause I am curious on how much all together.

is snoop his name on the site?

Snoopy. You'll know him when you see him. He's followed around by a bunch of disciples because he has the amazing ability to turn water into perfectly-functioning airsoft guns.

i was thinking the same thing about the spring pressure causing wear and stressing internal parts, but like you i also do not know much about them. So thats snoopy. Ok, I've seen him a time or two i think. Did he or dose he have a crazy saw.

i think ive seen on some gas guns that you can adjust the fps on them. True?

Tanaka's own. Get a BG hop up, tightbore, G&G Striker spring, and KM mag valves, and youll be good to go.

[quote="michaeld"]Stock Springer.

parts will run you about 300$, but after that you are golden!

If you're starting out with a Maruzen APS2-SV (not the EX or any other APS series rifles)

Not to mention the rifle is 300$ overseas...

thanks for all the info fellas its appreciated. hope to see you all on the field soon.
