I want to get into airsoft so bad. thi s is what I want, It's the top one, and I wanna get selected bipod & scope with other things.
The SL-8? Sweet.
But are you gonna have it be a sniper weapon if you get it? Well, nevermind...that thing is nearly 800 dollars.
If you want to get a cheaper, still high quality sniper gun, I'd recommend the SR-16.
More realistically, though, ('cause, I gotta be honest. Playing sniper is really boring. You have to be extremely patient and content with getting 1 or 2 kills a game.) I'd recommend either the MP5 SD5 or the G36C as a starter gun. The SD5 is solid, accurate, and silent, but limited by the constraints and fragility of the V2 gearbox. The G36C is really cool looking, has a beastly ROF, accurate, user-friendly (until you want to take it apart and get into the internals...ugh. But it's not as bad as the MP5.), and the V3 gearbox is great for upgrades of up to 350 FPS. On top of that, the G36C has some really cool aftermarket kits that let you turn it into a full size G36, a K-variant, and a K/E variant.
Start savin' yer pennies.
