I thought it may be helpful for people to put a list of what parts they are using in their VSR10 (If you do not have a VSR10, then do not put your list up on here). Before you post up your list of parts, please make sure that you have been sniping for more than 2 years. This way you would have had some experience in parts that you may be able to pass on to a newbie.

Please do not make your post extra long posts (Try to limit it to 1 sentence). I want this to be a quick list that people can read. You may want to say how long you have been a sniper and how often you pull apart guns.

Here is a template list. If you have anything extra, add it to the end
