Airsoft Sniper defending a position - uploaded to Flickr by milgeek

Each well balanced Airsoft team needs a mix of rushers, mid range shooters and most importantly airsoft snipers. Being a sniper means you generally lay low, and stay towards the rear and support your team from afar. Your role as a sniper may also require you to do some reconnaissance, which might mean tracking an opponent and observing without engaging.

Online there are several resources for learning about airsoft sniping. From shopping for your sniper rifle, to reading about the art of sniping and discussing sniping techniques with other airsoft players.

We found this Airsoft Sniper Forum just now, with some posts that are sure to be useful. Airsoft snipers should also check out The Airsoft Sniper website, with all sorts of information, entertainment and resources. One of the largest and more established forums online is the ASF Forums, with thousands of posts related to airsoft and military sim activities.

Stay away from Nite-Site.com, their airsoft forum is filled with posts from spammers.

If you’re on the other side of the pond in the UK, check out Airsoft Sniper.co.uk

Lastly but not least(ly) there’s Airsoft Retreat, another large and established airsoft forum and website with sniping information.
