This was the short barrel with a regular Supressor.

Couple buddy photos over the years.

DeadPrez and I tareting. Late Summer 2007

Naked and Dirty Pictures

Classics

The only time she has ever broke down. Broken trigger housing, held up for almost a year @ 500FPS. Pretty good considering she came into my hands at a year or two old with one, maybe two owners before me.

And last but not least, my previous bolty. TM Gspec, bought Winter 2004. The rifle that got me hooked on Sniping. This is when digital cameras blew ass.

Very sexy rifle!

Love the small barrel look. Then again I like the short barreled rifles

 

[silentfury214]

All I can say is WOW!

 

[rob1nd]

Nice rifle
I think the fluted outer barrel really makes the L96 look complete il have to get one

 

[zulu]

Very sexy man, I love all the variations you've put it through.

I notice the perfect form on that target shooting pic, btw.

 

[vindicareassassin]

Enough of the gun porn!! A man of my advanced years can only take so much excitment!

 

[patriot403]

I am so freaking jealous............................
Nice gun's man

 

[zulu]

I just noticed something. Is that crap all over the gun in one of the middle pictures all dirt?!?!

I thought it was some sort of winter paintjob or something the first time I saw it...

Zulu, Livonia would be more likely to call it a 'marinade' but yeah that's all dirt. One of the loveliest things about not relying on electricity to power your gun is you can get it down and dirty.

 

[Livonia]

Indeed, the pictures your talking about Zulu is paint, I just did some splashes of white on it and called it A day. I do have A picture where it is completely covered in dirt if you look through the second set again.

Thanks for the comments guys. Most of the other guns featured in my pictures belong to friends. The DMR M14 and M24 belong to Embed.

Wait we're talking about this picture, correct?

I'm talking about that picture Jamie, hes talking about the winter pictures at SFOD I think.

 

[zulu]

Sorry for the confusion, I was referring to the picture Embed posted. There was so much crud on that gun I wasn't sure if it was a paint job or not Actually, I think the three of us have been talking about different photos. Referring to the one Embed posted

 

[Livonia]

Hah, yeah its dried mud from a 24hr game OP:Starlite. Honestly though, if you look close enough at A lot of the pictures, you will see dirt on the scope mounts and Bipod, one of the benefits to having A springer.

I only clean my scope lenses really, simply paint over the little dirty parts, I use textured paint anyways.

 

[mopedman]

That is one bad ass gun. I have been on the receiving end of it a few times at SFOD.

 

[childishjadzino]

how long was your sniper with the short barrel? and how exactly did you do it?

 

[Wolfgeorge]

Ya, I have the same question, did you cut it? Or get a smaller outer and inner barrel?

Hey cut it and then cut an inner barrel to size.
