they like sniper rifles because.....the COD is strong with this one....
On that note....I've always been more of a pistol guy than a rifle guy. I gujess I just like my small guns

Off course..... is not like your profile name is Snipetek and your avatar a sniper lol
And yes, German shock troopers are also known as storm troopers. I was specifically referring to those of the 1918 offensive :P

I actually hold a PAL and shoot long guns for distance - I also use to formally compete in small caliber shooting and was asked to join our national team for biathlon based out of Canmore, AB. So I suppose snipetek is a fitting name for me. As far as playing airsoft? It's not even close to what being a real marksmen is. At the end of the day it's plastic and we're playing army...

when i played more i would carry both(primary and long rifle). and still didint use it that much. the only time the long rifle was my primary was in a set"mission" at a milsim, or dicking around.
Hey there is nothing wrong with wearing a kilt during a game. it freaks/disturbs some people, but to bad for them.

What bugs me is the fact younger players and even some older players have no concept of safety and it really bugs me i mean i was taught by my parents since i could speak dont point guns unless you are sure you want to hurt it or if there is some sort of protection and that isn't little safety glasses that's full seal. It's sad though because little story here there was a kid about a year ago and he is a year or two younger than me and im 16 but anyways he was putting a loaded pellet gun away and he shot himself up his nose and lived and is lucky because living that is slim. the pellet barley missed a main artery and he was flown out to have surgery to get the lead pellet out of his skull because it was in the fluid in his skull but he lost his vision after an attempt and they said if they did it again he would probably be killed and its sad though because he has to live with it now and can only be out for half a day and after that he has to sleep.

Sturmtruppen .. assault troops .. every army has them the word Storm Troops comes from an error in translation, Sturm means both Storm and Assault Sniper.. cold hearted slayer, all the other soldiers kinda stay clear of him.. because he's soo cool, and he tends to remain aloof, because you know .. all those regular guys are just not in his league. what 14 year old boy would not want to play that guy?

Ladys
Ladys from Hell was for our Highlanders. It was really the Germans who were first coined as Stormtroopers and was a miss quote. We had an amazing ability in Trench raiding we were feared by the "HUNS" for our raiding!

reeeeel
most kids think sniping is going to be much more exciting than it really is. they dont understand what sniping is all about. most kids get these guns thinking they are gunna rack up a ton of kills because of video games and movies, when in reality they get outshot because they are running in too close. i have a sniper on my team (brad/lumberjack) who goes games without firing his gun because he does a snipers real job in airsoft. recon and cover. ive played games where he would sit up on a hill and be my UAV/anna grimsdottir for the entirety of the game telling us of enemy movements and numbers. i want to hear more "Dusk i see three guys moving on your left, they see you be careful, also the guys in front of you are on thier last clips" rather than "dont worry i got him....:infantry:....sorry i missed" CoD kids.
it also doesn't help that snipers are usually cheaper than AeGs lmao. thank the media for ruining the sniper scene. |

The same reason most 14 year olds pick the bolt action sniper class in any first person shooter game. At this rate, if there is a musket class that shoots 3 rounds per minute, they'll probably eat that right up too. If more games were like ArmA2, then this wouldn't happen.
