hi guys i am looking into getting into airsoft. Now I was looking at the approved sniper rifles. do they have to be powerful for you guys to accept them? I only ask because I being 17 almost 18 have a spring bolt action sniper rifle witch is probably about 375 fps and I am wondering whether or not you guys would let me use it as most of the other guns i have are cheap clear airsoft springers or an electric AK witch although looks kinda cheap works very well but I would really like to use my sniper but I need to know if I even could or if I even would stand a chance with it.

thank you.

If you're shooting under 400fps you'll be fine, it's well within the limits.

You will have a crappy time playing sniper against the standard AEGs.

We play with the energies and ranges in this diagram:



Panther's absolute maximum energies are shown in this diagram, which we respect while at Panther:



Most other players will hit you a long time before you can reach them. You can bring your sniper rifle, but make sure you bring your AK so you can try both.

Good hunting.

The only chance you have is to remain hidden, and have other spots to go to. A head and shoulder gillie is nice too.
