Scout rifle.

Hi i was wondering if anyone knew if there is an Airsoft version of the Steyr Scout or somethin similar with a forward scope mount on a bolt action rifle? Ive done a little searching and havent found anything so im assuming there isnt but i though id ask just in case.

I know the M1A socom 16 has a forward rail mount and i may have to end up using that for my scout project but I'd prefer a bolt action for it.

Thanks

Retro

i know that if you get a Kar98k, i know how you can replace the rear leaf sight with a 20mm picatinny(sp?) rail. Even though its a rear sight, it is still located in the middle of the gun in case you are wondering.

I've been told that the APS2 EX version looks a lot like a STEYR BA, but I'm not too sure on how closely it resembles the Scout version.

Thanks for the ideas guys, ill have to take a look into some of those.

For those that dont know what the scout looks like

That bi-pod actualy folds up and is a part of the fore grip, and on the bottom of the stock at the back there is a spot for an extra 5 rnd magazine. The Unloaded weight is 6.6lbs and just short of 8lbs with a scope and 2 magazines.

Considering it's a counter-strike gun I'm really surprised no airsoft company has made one yet... lol

All the 13 year olds would go crazy for it.

Maybe because it's so ugly. Only it's name is cool.

Really? I like it!

The reason no one's made one yet is because the kids can't one shot anyone with it like they can with the AWP.


damn AWP-whores... At least they aren't using autosnipes.

Haha yea i first saw it in CS, but i fell in love with it when i actualy got to handle one and throw a few rounds through one. Very nice RS rifles, but also expensive. I love the look of the rifle also, the whole concept of it really. But i have to say if i was gonna drop 2k+ on a RS rifle id have to go with a M1a in a J Allen Enterprise stock.

Lets face it also, no one in CS uses the scout its not 1337 enough. Doesnt have the magical oneshotkillanywherehax. I never really got why people hated the auto snipe so much though, there are a lot of people that can drop you faster with an AK, aug, 552 or m4 at the same ranges.

Because a lot more people can drop you faster with an autosnipe. I got 5 headshots in about 6 or 7 seconds off a group of guys coming through an open doorway once. The recoil effect is a joke if you're used to taking long ranged shots with the AK or AUG.

There is a second rail behind the ejection port so you can mount the scope in a more traditional style if you choose.
