Any good sniper rifles at Jungle Toy in Phoenix?

I don't like ordering online. I'd rather buy from a retail store.

The only sniper rifle JT carries that I can think of at the moment is the KJW M700, but it's gas, not spring.  I've personally never used one, but from what I've seen and heard of them, they seem to be pretty nice, probably the best bet for an affordable sniper set-up, as they run about $200.

i would buy the tanaka M700 its beastly! but they have the KJW M700, the super 9 which is not to great at all, the super 10 again not too great. and the have the MK 1 from KJW if you consider that one its gas and non blowback  but i've seen people say they are a "sniper" with one, i don't know if the stor carrys the CA M24 its about 500 on their website. but first are you using it for a primary cause i would make sure thats what you want, but anyway i wouldn't get a sniper rifle from JT if you want to be a sniper i would buy something from Tanaka or even Marui.

Yeah, get a TM. I have shot the M700 from Jungle toy(my friend has one), and it is pretty nice. It works pretty good when it works, but he has had some problems with the hop up and the bolt. He just recently fixed it though,he said the inside is a really simple design. He uses red gas which I believe is part of the problem, another is the heat, at least in the summer.
  So pretty much I would not get a gas rifle because they often don't perfom well in the heat. (we do live in Arizona, right?)
  hope this helps!

No, other way around. Gas performs better in the heat and not so much in the cold. The reason he was having problems is probably because he blew all the seals. You're really not supposed to use too much red gas on a KJW. The bolts are awful cheap.

Rifle Carrying Stores

I just recently moved here from MI, but I have been to Jungle Toy, and I wasnt impressed, in the least with there selection. Granted, not many people use Sniper Rifles, but in my opinion, it is still in the stores best interest to carry more than 1 rifle.

I also have visited APD (Airzona Paintball Depot), I think it was on 27th St. Near Bell Rd.

They have a great selection of all CA guns, as well as the M24 Socom Rifle, both Military and Civilian Version. They also carry the KJW M700, I dont know about any TM Sniper Rifles though.

I don't know what it's called, or what it how good it is, but the Tempe used-to-be-Jungle Toy has a nice one. It's spring.

Bi-pod, good scope, black. But then again, I don't know.

We really do need a store name soon. We have some ideas but I'll hold off on posting it until it's finalized. :)

Yes, it is now privately owned, unnamed, and far FAR cooler than it was when Jungletoy owned it. ;) Expect more new products (name brand stuff!) in the next few weeks. I'll make a formal post once the transition is complete.
