| I have a Question for anyone whose a marksman (I'll call you a sniper if you have made more than one, one hundred yard kill). I used to be a marksman for my team; but that kind of faded being that I play with a team of 4 and it's really not an effective position for my team. So I stowed my bolt action rifle and picked up an AEG. But I never understood the whole pride concept with the one shot kill idea; I made a lot of one shot kills, but I was never really as ... excited as some other people get. Was I missing something? and what do you think Is the real mark for classifying a "sniper"? I just wanted to hear your thoughts. |

| A sniper is a person that waits for their target, a marksman is just a man in a squad that has a long range gun, usually designated to semi only. Snipers sit and wait in camoflauge with a highly accurate target. And the term on shot on kill in airsoft, well I guess it's just first shot has to hit them, just in real life. My guess is for people that get all excited over a one shot kill is because they had everything dialed in correctly. I would be a little glad in airsoft if I got one. |

| lol, I would never get a one shot kill even though I am a good shot because I never fire less than a 3 round burst. _________________  |
