H&K Full Size SL9 Airsoft AEG Sniper Rifle by Umarex

"What is the the range and what upgrade kit would I need and is it good for a starter sniper

"This is a great gun if you get It upgraded, from what I hear it's not to good stock but I had it fully upgraded so to from my experience it's a beautiful gun - accurate and FPS around 500 . You just gotta put the time into it and You will love it. if you're not looking to put any mods into it then you may not enjoy it.

"Got this gun a week after it was released in the US. So far I love it, great size and super accurate. I haven't fielded it yet since there's too much snow on the ground for the outdoor areas here to be open but overall the gun is lightweight and has a good feel with the testing I have done in my backyard.
I tested it with a 11.1V Lipo battery:
0.25g Elite Force BB's
Fires at 380-395 consistently


Pros
- comes with an okay adjustable bipod
- standard mag holds a decent amount of rounds
- super long inner barrel which makes it decently accurate with a dialed in scope
- like other G36's the Hopup was easy to adjust while I dialed in my scope
- only ranged it to 75ft due to a small backyard but I was able to nail a soda can dead on 7/10 shots in a row after zeroing my scope and adjusting the hopup
- Adjustable stock length and cheek risers
- Comes with bb's loading tool, unjamming tool, bipod and manuals

Cons
- The last 2-3 bb's in the mag don't feed so you drop a few when you switch. Could be remedied with a different mag or a new hop up
- The big orange tip is going to be a pain to conceal/paint since its integrated with the mock 'silencer'

Overall the gun was a great buy.
