[SCG48]

Me personally prefer the APS for field ops, first and foremost it will work in cold weather, thus when everyone elses AEG's crap out, theres your window of oportunity to engage at free will, and hopefully they dont have a secondary that works. As for urban ops, I prefer the M4 variant. I cant comment on stock APS's as when I got mine it was already upgraded internally, with some help i got a tightbore barrel and the tech's added an extension to the outter barrel. Ive nailed a guy over 200ft with it , luckely mother nature was on my side at the time of the shot, no wind. Once this BA is upgraded and tweeked, add good field tactics, and good ammo, it is just as effective as the M249 or an upgraded AEG, obviously far less firepower. But who says a spotter cannot be armed with a machine gun? :grin:

Theres pros and cons with BA weapons when your up against players with AEG's, but like its been mentioned before, its how you as a sniper team actually know and how to employ those tactics to be effective in the field. Hence why it is crucial that the spotter be armed with an AEG, that meets field regulations.

One doesnt have to have a BA to effectively play the sniper role, any type of AEG will do. And as it has been mentioned, AEG's work well.
