Rifleman's Primary - What would you recommend??

[yoyit2]

haha lmao ^

well i think the WE is out of the picture for me. im not really looking for a gas gun. but that 10/22 just looks so fine! i really wish someone could give me some more input on it.

the TM M14 is sweet, im just kinda scared of the v.7 gear box. ive worked on LOTS of v.2 and they are a breeze. i HATE working on v.3 - good gearboxes just a pain though ..cant seem to master the trigger assembly. hows the v.7 to work on?

I haven't broke the cherry on my box yet but my neighbour has one and he says its MUCH better to work on, much easier.

good to know thanks! hows the accuracy out of the box? what kind of range? yeah, i guess i could go look for a review ..but that'd be to easy lol

Once you get it dialed in it is deadly accurate. I can hit a man size target fairly accurately at 100 feet with just a standard sight. I did find the hop to be a bit picky, but once the gun is broken in it settles down alot. There are lots of videos around, check them out, you will like what you see

You know, I have also heard some good things about the Echo1 M14 as well. Might be something to consider if you are looking to save a bit and still get a good gun.

My 22 is stock internally and i was hitting a tree at 130ft using 25s without even touching my hopup yet. mags are going to run you more around 32each but still not bad. It will except most AR parts including the pistol grip but only if its the same shape as teh stock one, i have the moe grip on mine but i could only mount it if i used the one sized parts.

gun overall is a great buy and well worth the money, just a lil too hot for most games

Is there any word when a NPAS will be available for the 10/22?

I ordered a kjw 10-22 with the intention of putting the m1a1 carbine wood kit on it.
I'm also ordering a m1a1 rear sight for it (will need some mod but i don't mind...)

Can't wait to receive it

Can this baby be accepted at games within sniper rifle rules as it's semi only?

been told that my SR25 couldn't be a sniper since with the semi auto I can shoot way faster than a BA.

duh...

Will wait for the npas to field it then...

[ssrc30]

Personally I am an M4 kinda guy, I love everything about the M4/M16 platform, and I enjoy a good support gun at times as well... I still wanna get a 10/22 though.

its all up to the specific field you play at. last game day, i used my ICS m4 as a sniper :P i was told i had to wait 5 sec between shots. in 15sec i had 3 kills over 125ft away :P

This. Since you have an ICS M4, all you need is another upper receiver, upper gearbox, and the MK12 parts.

That's likely a good practice anyway, rather than fire off a volley of shots that miss a target and give away your position...

I have always liked the look of the MK12 Mod 0... M16 length is a bit too long for my style of game play, but it sure looks BADASS when it's done up right.
