"fit and finish is good, and it seems to be made of durable materials. accurate enough to get the job done. if you are doing any work past about 200 feet (around 75 yards) you will need to start performing accuracy upgrades.

it does NOT like low weight bbs. thought .25 would be heavy enough, its not. get .30 or heavier for this rifle.

only complaint is with the scope add on package, the rings included are way too low, the cheek rest at its lowest position still isn't comfortable for looking through the scope, i have to press hard into my cheekbone. a new set of rings for about ten bucks will fix this, but i really shouldn't have to, considering its an "add on"

other than that, its an accurate target rifle.

"Probably the Best l96 for the price. Its of course a starter sniper rifle, and should be only used for outdoor scrimmages if its bone stock. But it has an amazing fps for the price. Mine shot around 460 brand new. after 2 years of usage, shoots around 420 so it actually has an amazing life. Will last a WHILE.

PROS:
-Very comfortable.
-Not heavy, perfectly balanced weight.
-450 stock fps. ___SWEET for 85$
-Really really good range
-Accuracy is pretty nice for the price. USE HEAVIER THAN .25!! .25s are still not heavy enough. Use .30
-Long lasting rifle.
-Even though it is a starter rifle, this thing competes very very well against medium line AEGS and is probably the BEST starter bolt action on the market.

CONS:
-In comparison to other starter Snipers, this gun doesn't really have any cons. The only problem I can think of is this things is GREASSSSY. The bolt is just a little too greasy. every now and then i find grease in the barrel. So clean this with a cleaning rod fairly often. Not much of a con but still should mention it.

"I've had this rifle for about two years now. Just a few days ago its having a few problems. BBs started rolling out of the barrel. I can probably fix it easily enough, but just a bit of warning to anyone wanting to buy it. Also, you're going to need heavier BBs. .25s are still too light so you'll have to get something heavier still. With those heavier BBs, the accuracy and range is amazing. If you're looking for a lower budget starter rifle then this one is great.

"I bought this gun in March/April 2011 and there is only one problem. It jams very easily, and the mag is hard to get in sometimes. I bought a new mag, didn't fix it. Oiled mag and bolt and cleaned the barrel, nothing worked. Someone told me it could be the hop-up bucking. The only logical reason I can think of is that I dropped it like the next month after I got it. I don't snipe all that much and I'm in the market for a new sniper rifle anyway, so I'm not that interested in fixing it. I also don't work internally on guns, and I don't know anyone who does within 3.5 hours from where I live.

Pros:
Very Accurate
Pretty good FPS.
Good range

Cons:
Jams easily (which is probably my fault)
Mag is hard to fit in sometimes

"This is an overall good gun but on mine the bolt keeps coming loose so i constantly have to tighten it back in. I would definitely recommend this gun to any beginner snipers. I shoot the most accurately with 0.25g bb's. I would give this gun about a 4.5 out of 5

"it is very accurate and shoots hard the plastic doesn't seem very high quality at the seem points but is good other wise i wish the cheek pad was adjustable if i were you go ahead and buy the $150 l96 on the first page withe the adjustable cheek and folding stock over all goodish

pros cons
shots hard body isnt very good
metal
fits in stock nice

"This rifle is excellent for the price, even with scope and bipod. It very accurate out of the box and mine chronoed at 411fps with .25's. Nice stiff pull to the bolt and hopup adjusts easily and noticeably. The only draw back with this weapon is that there are no clear upgrade parts. The hopup is identical to the vsr10 but other than that its a gamble. The barrel can only be replaced with an aftermarket one only after modifying the hopup assembly. No clue as to what spring you would use to replace the oe with. Do some research before you buy this gun if you want it to upgrade.

"Had this gun for over a year now and to tell the truth i would give it a 3.5/5
it shot extremely well and was always very accurate
I say was because all of a sudden one day it stopped working and no one can figure out why.
It is a good starting gun but if you have the money and the experience i recommend getting an better gun.
All in all it was a great gun and i'm still trying to fix it because i loved it so much

"I got this gun back in June from my brothers friend. This gun shoots about 445-450 with .2s and about 430 with .25s. I would reccomend you use .25s and higher because .2s tend to swerve a lot and .25s are pretty decent. If you zero the hopup and use .28s then I think therange would be about 210 ft. I will adress my pros and cons here

pros: range, price, lightweight, decent accuracy, nice feel, vsr compatible

cons: ALL the bbs will feed into the barrel if i put more than 15 bbs in the mag,
bad mags, unrealistic bolt.
by Vince N. on 07/16/2011
"Not bad of a gun, a great starter for Snipers. Quite good for field play. The FPS is decent, but getting a spring upgrade would help. The finish is good, and the externals are pretty solid and heavy, except that its missing the "Real Steel Magazine" (The magazine for this is different from the one in real life; this ones magazine actually goes underneath the handguard). All in all, a great, budget efficient rifle!

"pretty good for 90 bucks, scope with it gets a 10/5. its good.
Accuracy wise with .28's its hard to get a shot that doesnt curve. Range isnt the best but for 90 bucks its pretty good.

"When i first got this gun, it was so cool. i ordered the scope and bipod, but the bipod didnt come. they ran out of stock on it. the scope was good and everything, but i couldent get it sighted in.

1. had good fps
2. was even cooler when i painted it cammo
3. i like the feel of holding it. it is very solid

cons
1. its gets tireing carrying and holding it
2. it sometimes over feeds but i think that is my mag.
other then that its all good.

by Jay G. on 10/17/2010
"I give this sniper a 4 out of 5 beacause its a good gun but after a while things start 2 go wrong like the bolt and inside of stock.
But still a good buy who wants a starter sniper:)
by RYAN m. on 09/24/2010
"overall a decent gun but the bipod was a pain, a hammer, a nail, and a sore hand later and it finally came off, then u gotta put it back iiinnn, u gotta adjust the scope alot, those were the cons but in a game i got my hog tooth, shot an enemy sniper at 200 feet and asked to empty the chamber and got my hog tooth (i think that is what u call it). overall decent gun buy it now and 1 more con, my mag was broke because both things that stop bbs from gusshing out pushed out the mag

"looks and sounds like it will preform well, but how's the range? Rather, what is the effective range??
