Hi, Looking to find a L96 Sniper

dotripper · July 13th, 2011, 15:55

I am new to the hobby and I am looking to pick up a decent replica of the L96 Sniper.

I have done some research and the UTG one you cannot get in Canada, So...

What gun the closest thing to it as well as a decent manufacturer that makes them?

Newbie Tank Question

I also live in Toronto if that's of any help

Get age verified then look in the classifieds. Just a warning, if you buy a sniper rifle, you are going to have to upgrade it a lot to make it skirmishable. The total price with upgrades is going to be over $1000.

I have no intention of "fighting" with it, I just want to shoot some bottles n shit up north when I'm drunk at the cottage. It will, for the most part be chilling on my wall. But thanks for the feedback

Buy an airgun, then.

dotripper · July 13th, 2011, 16:16

What brand should I be looking for ....

If you're just looking to shoot shit.

Go to walmart, buy an airgun. They all go pew.

Airsoft isn't accurate, especially the cheap ass shit you're looking at right now. Like the guy mentioned above. You're looking to spend a lot of money to just get the thing shooting straight and far.

Crosman makes decent airguns that are sub 500fps. I own a Phantom 500 from them. Shoots fine.

dotripper · July 13th, 2011, 16:27

what Canadian website should I buy the Phantom 500 from, or is it better to get my lazy ass age verified and look for one in the classifieds....

On some of the private fields around Onterriable, I see a few players drink up while playing.

What you wrote can be misinterpreted.... Does walmart sell crosman phantom 500 rifles ? If they don't MONEY is not an issue I'm a grown ass man with a grown ass job

Dude your on the wrong forum for airguns. Check out Coogles link.
Also just because this is the newbie tank doesn't mean we appreciate the attitude.

Strelok · July 13th, 2011, 16:57

It can. But i'd only hope you're capable of expanding out from this forum post and do a bit of effort on finding out for yourself.

Google it, drive to Walmart and find out what they have (Or, check their site). And most importantly, check out the airgun forum link that had been presented to you above. This isn't an airgun forum. Airsoft and Airguns are completely different things.

do your own homework, it helps
