TM L96 converted or Magpul PTS ACR Massada

Windows · February 15th, 2011, 19:37

Hello fellow airsofters, I've been bouncing this idea around local players, friends ect. lately and simply cannot decide between:
Buying a TM L96 and slowly converting it into a remmingtion MSR
or
Buying the Magpul PTS ACR Massada.

I have been using a Heavily upgraded CA36C and converted it into a DMR. I have been playing the DM/Sniper role for a few years now and am enjoying it. The reasion I'm so torn is I can eather:
Down grade my g36 back into an assault rifle and use it as a seconday and use the bolt action as primary, or Keep my g36 as it is and use the massada as a secondary.

Any thoughts are appreciated, especially those who have extensive experience using SA or BA long range rifles.

IMO, you need to ask yourself: do I want to play with a BA
being a DMR or a sniper is not the samething!
That question would be a good beginning

I'd say take the L96, you'll have a full auto as secondary (I'd take a handgun too) and the.308 for sniping.
What you should still consider is : are you ready to loose the rate of fire the semi auto gives you ? Plus is easier to spot someone rearming a bolt action than firing in semi.

I'm aware that DM and sniper are two very different rolls. I do play both rolls namely DM when traveling with a squad, or sniper when it's just me and my spotter. I do carry a pistol as well.
When I'm acting as sniper I usually take about 20-30 shots in a day with about 14 and up kills.
When I'm acting as DM I usually take about 100 shots a about the same amount of kills.
And I am prepared to loose the rate of fire with a bolt action (i used a friend's bolt action a year back and did notice a change in playing style)
Thanks for your imput
