AEG vs. spring sniper rifles?

im looking to buy a new sniper rifle and i was wondering whats generaly better, a AEG or spring sniper.

Spring....Hands Down.......Wait...what are you gonna use it for...are you gonna use it for more of a DMR role or a Scout role?

spring is recomended, and a sniper is a person/class. a sniper rifle is a gun.

Marksman AEG's are very complex and require experience to maintain or the resources such as a tech that works near by or having the $moola$ to ship it to a large store such as ASGI.

However a DMR AEG gives you more options than a spring rifle. Im a AEG person, have been ever since I have started playing airsoft. They give you a overall advantage at close ranges. Ecen some stock AEGs match spring snipers...or in this case a brand new BAR 10 and Full length M16. The BAR 10 using a .30 g bb, the M16 a .25-.28 g bb should have comparable accuracy given correct hop up, bucking, barrel combo.

If you just want to better yourself as a airsoft marksman and already have a few AEG's then I say get the springer. If your just starting off, don't focus on demanding roles such as marksman. For the time being work on your basics with a well built AEG, excercise more advance tactics and have a feel for different replica bases like a SAW or even CQB guns depending on your area.

sorry in sort of new to airsoft, what does DMR mean?

Designated marksman rifle, he doesnt mean DMR he means DM which is a troop/player that uses a rifle such as M16 or m14.

I would say get the BAR 10 if your looking to play sniper, or an m16/m14 if you want to just move with your team but be a long range shooter in fire fights.

just remeber springers are cheap but uprades will be about the same price as buying a high end aeg. but i say go with sring lighter less ammo and can be use as soon as it's together
