Anatomy of an Airsoft Sniper RifleMake the Shot with Long Range Precision from Valken Airsoft!The airsoft sniper is a special breed. While many enjoy airsoft for the up close and personal, “in your face” styles of play like speedsoft or CQB and the adrenalin rush of what or who might be around the next corner, the airsoft sniper controls that adrenalin, along with as many variables as possible during an airsoft operation, to make single, well-aimed, long-range shots to eliminate key opponents who will likely never know where the BB that sent them back to the staging area came from. Unlike building a successful airsoft loadout for other styles of combat, from CQB to an all-around airsoft M4 carbine for multi-mission effectiveness that centers around creating a combination of firepower and reliable accuracy, the airsoft sniper must assemble their airsoft sniper rifle and the peripherals used with it to construct a platform capable of repeatable, predictable accuracy and consistency, one single BB at a time! An Ideal Airsoft Sniper Rifle!Making accurate single, long-range shots with an airsoft sniper rifle means finding a high-quality airsoft gun built for the task and then assembling the necessary accessories around it that all contribute to the same concept. An extremely popular and capable airsoft sniper rifle used for this purpose is the Ares Amoeba Gen2 Striker! A bolt-action, spring-powered airsoft sniper rifle that needs no air source or batteries to sling BB’s out to 400 feet per second, the Amoeba Striker features a barrel long enough to keep shot grouping consistent out to long ranges and a modular, adjustable polymer stock that allows the shooter to tailor their setup for a perfect cheek weld for whatever scope they may use and eye and face protection they might wear. This airsoft sniper rifle also features a 20mm picatinny rail across the top allowing for quick and easy installation of an optic – critical for long-range precision! Airsoft Optics & Airsoft BB'sSpeaking of optics, an airsoft sniper requires equipment with the ability to send well-aimed, single airsoft BB’s downrange with enough precision to hit whatever an opponent might leave exposed. That means a high-quality scope is needed that, once sighted-in with the airsoft gun on which it’s mounted and the proper airsoft BB’s, can deliver ultra-tight, predictable shot groups. An ideal choice for this type of challenge is the Valken Airsoft 1-4x20mm variable zoom optic. Able to back out to provide a shooter looking downrange through the scope with a good sight picture, then be adjusted to 4x zoom for long range precision shooting, the Valken variable zoom scope is delivered with a rugged, high-quality scope mount already installed, meaning the shooter need only securely mount the scope to the rifle’s sight rail, then proceed to sighting in! For longer range precision shooting, many airsoft snipers will consider mounting a folding bipod to the front of their airsoft rifle stock, as this will allow them to shoot from a stable, supported position for the greatest precision.As important as a high-quality airsoft sniper rifle with the proper added tools of the trade are for creating repeatable long-range accuracy to influence the fight, a great deal of responsibility for delivering accurate groups at any range will fall to the projectile. High-quality, heavy-weight airsoft BB’s like Valken Accelerate ProMatch airsoft bb’s are ideal for airsoft sniping as they are made to exacting specifications ensuring accurate flight and consistency from shot to shot, bottle after bottle, and the heavier weight will help keep each individual airsoft BB flying straight to the target, resistant to wind and weather that might otherwise push a shot off-target!

While airsoft operators with fully automatic airsoft guns like AEGs have the luxury of getting much closer to their opponents and walking a stream of BB’s into a target should their initial shot or burst miss the mark, an airsoft sniper must focus on making their first shot a hit, allowing them to remain concealed. An airsoft sniper that gets spotted is little more than a long-range target, and no amount of camouflage or an amazing Ghillie Suit can conceal a sniper that has to get up and move around because they missed a shot and suddenly the entire opposing force is yelling, pointing and jumping on the radio. That means plenty of time spent at the shooting range engaging targets at all ranges to provide the data necessary to ensure when the mission is on the line and it’s time to pull the trigger, the shot will land where it needs to go! Make the Shot (with Valken Airsoft!)Half the fun of operating as an airsoft sniper is building an amazing airsoft sniper rifle to do the work with, then learning how to employ it to its greatest effect to help your team accomplish their mission. The other half, of course, is the feeling of putting a single, well-aimed airsoft BB into a target halfway to the next county and seeing the surprised look on their face through your scope as they stand up and leave the field. There’s no feeling like that in the whole world and the only way to get there is to build an amazing piece of airsoft gear, then put the time in to learn how to use it! Valken can be your airsoft armory for the best airsoft gear and equipment to accomplish any mission!
