How to Become A Master Airsoft Sniper (Tips And Tactics)
So you want to be an airsoft sniper marksman? Our guide will take you there and give you all of the considerations required to become a successful and dependable marksman. Being a sniper is one of the most sought-after roles in the airsoft world. After several years in the hobby, I can say from personal experience that it seems like more people pick up airsoft wanting to be a sniper than any other “class” on the field. This is primarily due to the “cool factor”. Movies like American Sniper and games like Battlefield and Call of Duty add mystique to this role for their ability to turn the tide of a battle and the “lone wolf” element. How to become a good sniper marksman Despite the ‘allure’ and prestige of the role, becoming a successful airsoft sniper marksman takes a lot more than a ghillie suit from an airsoft retailer and a 500 fps replica rifle. It takes a lot of hard work, dedication, money and training to get right. If you think you’re up for the challenge, this guide on How to be a Good Airsoft Sniper will help you on your journey to picking off enemy players from an unseen vantage point. Before we get started with this airsoft sniping guide, would-be airsoft snipers need to understand that Sniping can be one of the most frustrating roles on the airsoft field. Players being targeted often do not notice they have been shot or ignore sniper shots altogether. Most Snipers get the fewest kills per day of any other role or player on the field. Equipment is heavy and costly, and you will likely spend most of your airsoft day crawling on your stomach in a hot burlap suit not even having a clear shot. However, the rewards do exist. Airsoft snipers can effectively take out enemies without being detected and can have a lot of fun doing it. The main character in Jarhead said “The Marine Grunt dies for 3,000 poorly-placed shots. The Marine Sniper dies for that one perfect shot.” If this is how you think, airsoft sniping may be for you. The Role of a Sniper The role of a sniper in the real steel world and the role in airsoft are not all that different. The only real differences are the ballistics and the physical limitations of the hardware we use in airsoft, and the close proximity airsoft snipers have to their targets. Snipers are useful in: Reconnaissance Gathering of Intel Infiltrating Enemy Lines Eliminating High Value Targets Providing Specific Point Security/Early Advance Warning In these roles, snipers can be extremely useful to their COs in-game. Especially at large fields (I would estimate 20+ acres) or large OPs, snipers can turn the tide of a battle for the team when they are used properly and experienced.
