Hello to every one on the airsoft sniper forums.

My name is Sam.

Call sign- Mopedman

I have been playing airsoft for about two years now. I have been interested in snipers/countersnipers for about a year now. My first experience with airsoft snipers was about a year and a half ago at a game at SFOD in Michigan were Livonia shot me from about 200 ft when I was in cover on top of a building. Ever since I have had interest in airsoft snipers.

Just recently I picked up a Tanaka M700 and plan on picking up a TM VSR10.

I thought that I would introduce my self in my first post to the airsoft sniper community.

Welcome !!!

Sorry to hear that your first experience with a sniper was at the hands of a good one, would be different if it was a new guy with a crappy rifle ...

But ask any questions that you may have, of course after using the search function.

You have any pics of your gear as of right now?

What are your plans for your tanaka and your possible VSR?

I don't have much sniper gear. I have a ton of airsoft stuff. I am not really sure what I am going to do to the Tanaka. I am new to the hole sniper thing. Not sure what to do to it. I am reading into it now. I don't want to jump into mods yet and not know what is better or worse. As far ast VSR go's I want to make that into a bad weather gun for winter and cold weather. I am about to start to work on my guile suit. I am also about to paint my tanaka and one of my M4's. My brother is going to be using the M4 as my spoter or vise-versa. I am not doing too much right now because it is beter just to obsorb info before jumping into the s***.

Hey nothing wrong with that.... Always good to keep your rifles stock and play with them for a while and then slowly upgrade.

Sounds like you already have a plan for it all as well. Not to many people do that, I know i didn't..

Good luck on the build and have some fun with it as well.

Where are you located at? If you are around my area would be more than happy to help you out.

Ahh ok ... I do know that a few of the guys on here are from the michigan area. I am over in Fargo, ND.

Heck I know a few games are over in that area that a few of the guys from my area take part in. Maybe we can all meet up there and have a grand ole time.

I was able to use my Tanaka for the first time in a game today. I love the gun, it shoots really good. I also painted it today.I will post pics in the next few days.

Glad to hear that you are liking the rifle. Keep us informed

 

[mopedman]

The gun performs realy good for a stock rifle.I have been using madbull .36g BB's. I would like to get a tight bore for the rifle and a good bipod.

Also I posted a few pics on my facebook from my phone. If any one on here has a face book they can add me. Just search for Sam Goldwater.
