While it may be easier to buy a designed paintball sniper rifle, it may be economy to build your own. Once you have basics of the gun and then attach some accessories, you can have the rewarding palpate of construction your very own convention paintball sniper rifle. The marker, a sniper barrel, and a long range scope make up the basic necessities. Some upgrades can be added such as a bi pod, a hopper or magazine to hold the ammo, and even some camouflage.
The first and most crucial part of the gun is the mark (the actual gun itself). As long as your selection is a dependable, upgradeable, and within your allocation then it will work. Once this selection is made, or if you are modifying your current gun, then add a compatible barrel. Barrels can be everywhere from 14" to over 22". I like staying in the middle around 18". A long range scope should be next. Just get one that fits your mark and is comfortable to you. Now you are approximately done. Well you can be thoroughly done as your gun is now usable after you add the air to propel the paintballs but upgrades can be both aesthetically pleasing but very beneficial to the sniper.
Rifle Scope
The first things to add that help with the look and are functional to the paintball sniper are a bi pod and a buttstock. The bi pod helps with aiming and in keeping the weapon steady for long periods of time. A magazine is regularly included with your mark but you can carry extras or attach a hopper. The extra mags can be used to carry additional ammo but a hopper can keep from doing that by keeping as many as 200 paintballs. A red dot scope can also come in very handy if you find yourself in some close quarters combat. If the scenario complies or if you just want to then you can also get some type of camouflage. The possibilities are endless and can be customized by you. Just remember that those upgrades cost and will increase your total price.
While construction your own paintball sniper gun can be a tiny more work and a tiny more time inspiring than buying a box put together by someone it can be a lot economy and more satisfying in the end. Not only will you know the weapon better, you can get exactly what you want and nothing you don't, plus keep the price down.
