position anti-sniper

does anyone have good strategy for taking out a sniper?
It seems everyone is scared of the snipers, how do i make the snipers fear me?

Lol...erm.......umm...you could...ummm...

...smear big's blood all over yourself...that'd be pretty frightful.

track down their position and rush it. i do that all the time. (they have engagements distances and usually their sidearm can't compete with an AEG)

Like NN2H said, if you close with them and get under their MED, you can easily take them out of play. It seems a lot of snipers have full auto sidearms, so try to count bbs, if possible. When they go for the reload, hit them hard and fast. I've done this before at an OP where there was a sniper in a tree.

as have i, at an op there were 2 opfor snipers up on a hill, we did a massive team rush, (about 30 or 40 peoples) but most got out or pinned. so i rushed up that hilll, booking it like crazy got with in their MED and unleashed \"Watch your language\". i got both of them i believe (not sure, but i for sure got 1 of them)

If you can find where they are, just look at their position with your gun up. If you have a radio call in a bit. I can guarantee they wont stay there long. Also move towards the sniper. Not suicidally, but from pieces of cover.

no, you can't just look at them with your gun up. if you did that to me, I would happily take such an easy shot. no, with a sniper who has any skill whatsoever, you have to actually shoot them before they move (and personally, I will probably return fire and get myself killed). the best way is definitely to rush them and get under their MED.

@alex
I like your idea, but it won't work well for what you're trying to do. Think of it like this. You're in Iraq, you see a sniper, and you point your rifle at him. Is he going to move, or is he going to take a shot and most likely kill you?

ok heres a few things you need to consider

1) Your AEG can most likly shoot just as far as his at a much greater rof (If not go to 2)

2) Most likly he is some wanabe sniper kid who things hes a bad a mofo out there to get hundreds of "kills' (If not go to 3)

3) Most likly its a inexperianced kid...while knowing he is out there to scout and not kill he is enexperianced in hidingand picks obvious hiding spots and techniques..see step 1 on how to deal with him. If not go to 4

4) Try to take cover and fire burts hoping to find/hit him as he tries to pull back...agian see step 1...airsoft snipers fear the person with the AEG

5) Read the sniper guides on TASS...good snipers will use those tacticts and you can learn from it

@ Jarhead 999, but this is Airsoft, and we're not in Iraq. The point was to get the sniper to move, because he knew his position had been found. You can take shots if you want, the point was to worry him because he knew he had been spotted

Right, but if I were the shooter looking through that scope, I'd take my shot before you could call in my position.

Well hopefully you wouldnt be able to take the shot, the point was that he knew the sniper was there, so you would probably be behind cover.

Kudos to those two snipers for pinning a whole battalion down, and taking some out...

Mhm that or they were realy bad...just simple cover fire by the entire group should have taken them out 0o
