No he doesn't want a SCAR , they wouldn't be good for a spotter , he wants a small and manuverable airsofting weapon .

Yeah as for being a Scout you are going to want a smaller rifle , like the G3 from Echo 1 , that way you will be able to both be a spotter and a scout .

My spotter FYI has a VFC SCAR-H it's perfect for us he says it's great and it's no bigger then an M4.
Oh and the G3 is bigger then a scar I have seen them together G3's are really big the SCAR would be better for a scout and a spotter position SCAR is probably a better choice (sorry G3 I still like you but scar...)

I say the scar is a good choice but it is up to you it's just G3 mags cost a lot bulky and heavy I really don't think they would be any good for a spotter/scout to big. The scar is just the right size not to heavy and plenty of rials for miscellaneous thing.

Also maybe a M14 socom my Echo 1 could work.

Something i think were all missing here is the fact that if the sniper goes down the spotter should(RS or airsoft) be able to fill the sniper's role. So if you can do that with an Mp5 then by all means go ahead, however I know I cannot. I would need something with at least an M4 length barrel/stock. But thats just me.

IMO get something with a folding(preferred), or even a retractable stock. IE G36(C/K), heck even an SPR Mk12Mod0(M16 length barrel with cool hand guard and a Crane stock).

What ever you get make sure you like how it feels. I assume you have friends that play airsoft, try their guns out. You shouldn't be worried about the length of a gun, but rather your height compared to the length of the gun. IE. my friend G36 was once full length, we had to mod it because he was only 1 1/8ft taller than the gun(4ft gun). However I played with a guy who could use a G3SG1 with a 200mm suppressor on it, as an effective CQC gun.

Since you are 14 I can't really advise you on which gun to get because I have no idea what you height is. But I would get what you think looks the best, pretty soon you will be able to maneuver it easily no matter how big it is.

Scar has a folding stock plus it's adjustable it has the range so it can take in the sniper position cheers But I also see what your saying sticks it also depends on body type my spotter isn't all that big so he keeps the stock at 0-1 notches out.

Well if you like bulky guns, I would go with a SAW... jk, I think...

What actually might fit the bill would be an SR25 or even a Stoner URX. However they are a little over your price range($200 for the cheapest). Really I would seriously check out a G36 series weapon. They have a wide fore grip, and with a new magwell you can use M4/M16 mags(highly recommended). It has a great Hop-up, that takes care of the range issue.

Another option would be an M14. It pretty much fits the bill as well. CYMA makes the best clone version out there(excluding CA and G&G). The price is right too($120). It can use the cheapest high quality mags in airsoft(KA M14 Midcaps). And it has arguable the best hop-up in airsoft as well!

If you want an M-14 , than go for it , the M14 was voted the best spotter rifle in use , but this was the reel steel version and as for airsoft goes , then I would go for an M4 or and M-16 .
