6mm Hunter "Stalk & Shoot" Training (m40a1)

[cube1cze]

this style of game is really nice i will try it.

[phantomTMA]

I hope you enjoy it.

Good Hunting ;)

[jovian0011fan1]

another good tip is always stay lower or try to stay lower than your natrual vegataion

[airsoftsniper088]

you guys are fricken amazing the most amazing airsoft snipers ever!!!!!

[DigitalKi11er911]

porn music.

[mrINTENSEIfy]

Great help man, hopefully i can better surprise those grunts! What is the name of the first song by the way?

[airjoona]

awesome

[XxxXGTiXxxX]

thank you '6mm hunters' youur guys tip and tatics have been coming in handy out on the feild!

[phantomTMA]

@XxxXGTiXxxX Thankyou. Great to hear someone has made use of them.

Good Hunting ;)

[ZisRoda1]

NICE from spain ^^

[Renji131]

Yet again an awesome video from Phantom. Nice.

[TECHDECK2112]

what gram bbs should i use in my kjw m700 ( no upgrades) and just wanted to referance a pro :D

[phantomTMA]

Get 0.30g (white) or 0.40g (tan). Any brand is fine. To get more accuracy, look into swapping the hop rubber for a nineball version.

Good Hunting ;)

[TECHDECK2112]

@phantomTMA where can i get the nineball hop rubber?

[phantomTMA]

I live in the UK so cannot say where to get in the USA. However, you could get it from redwolfairsoft

Good Hunting ;)

[TheVirusJack]

yea i know airsoft guns dont have rifled barrels. but i still thought that with a longer barrel the BB would be more accurate.. so thanks alot for clearing this :D and thanks for all the information u gave me. :D

[TheVirusJack]

okay thanks alot for the information about the VSR phantom :) but if VSR-G-SPEC have a shorter barrel.. how come the Dragunow aint better ? it got a really long barrel

[phantomTMA]

The HOP UP is key part of any rifle. The VSR has the best hop system and provides great trajectory and most stable (accurate/consistant). The Dragonov may have a long barrel but has a worse hop system. The barrels are smoothbores (not rifled) so do not correlate to firing firearms. Having a longer barrel doesn't make the gun more accurate with Airsoft guns.

Good Hunting ;)

[TheVirusJack]

sorry it wasnt my intent to post it twice my youtube was just really slow and it didnt post the message correctly. Thanks alot for the help it really cleared alot of things to me so thanks. Sorry for all the questions asked.. hehe but what would u prefer ? VSR-10-G-spec or the VSR-10-pro ? i must say i thought the Dragunov would be the most accurate sniper because it has the longest pibe?

[phantomTMA]

I own both, but once you go for a high power upgrade, the G-SPEC becomes less suited (shorter barrel) and the silencer has less effect. At low power the G-SPEC has a great silencer and is accurate. Many people do not hear the shots, even if stalking. The optimum barrel length for the VSR cylinder volume is around 450mm. Longer and you will not notice improvement in accuracy. Remember the barrel is not rifled. Shorter barrels simply limit the maximum velocity. VSR has the best hop.

Good Hunting

[TheVirusJack]

Hey Phantom thanks alot for replying and answaring. but i wonder if spring are the most accurate in long range.. then how come you´re using a gas sniper in some of your videos ?

[phantomTMA]

Please only post your questions once. Gas has the advantage of less vibration at really high powers, while being able to cock the high powered action with only 1 finger and very minimal movement. If you watch this film, I use that advnatage at the end to stay undetected despite the spotter hearing my show was only 35 yards away.

Gas rifles are fun to use in warmer conditions, while spring is simply more accurate/consistant in any temperature or speed of firing.

Good Hunting ;)

[TheVirusJack]

Hey Phantom amazing videos... really... but i have 1 question for you... wich Sniper riffel is the best.. ive been seaching for a while.. but cant find out wich one is the best. and by best i mean most accurate in long range.

please answar Phantom... others feel free to comment too :)

[phantomTMA]

The VSR10 or BAR10 that is upgraded is the BEST platform at long range due to consistant velocity and also most stable HOP UP system. I have one and have recently made 100 yard shots on the range (laser ranged). I could hit 2 out of 3 on a stationary man sized target. This would be hard to land in a game though, due to targets moving and no idea if your pellets drop short or go over (they are really falling at this range). VSR/BAR also has cheap and good capacity mags.

Good Hunting ;)

[wesleydingle]

That's a pretty good idea. I also see pouches and a belt in most of your videos. What are they? I'm looking for pouches that aren't restrictive and don't get in the way. Thanks.

[phantomTMA]

I use a belt kit used for hunting game birds. I don't think they make them anymore.

Good Hunting ;)

[wilcaswell]

that looked fun

[wesleydingle]

What do you guys normally wear on your head for concealment underneath the natural foliage? It's pretty hard to tell.

[phantomTMA]

we use either caps or boonies with the peaks trimmed off the sides.

Good Hunting ;)

[darkcarguy]

this looks like a lot of fun i gotta try it

[rideHPD]

Where is this/where do you play?

[phantomTMA]

UK

Good Hunting ;)

[rideHPD]

@phantomTMA Well, If you ever find yourself in California, let me know and we'll hit some targets, with steel and plastic!

[MrShizzyNizzle]

Nice vid, doesn't the ghillie on your rifle effect your view down the scope?

[phantomTMA]

It can do if you are not careful with the placement. I use high scope mounts too.

Good Hunting ;)

[redeadnixon]

@phantomTMA hahaha

"good hunting stalker"

[AirsoftGhillieRocker]

nice video dude. Keep on! Do you play just for fun or are you in a special airsoft team?

[phantomTMA]

I am in the 6mm HUNTERS.

Good Hunting ;)

[TheAirsoft91]

very nice training i must say:)))) i must try that too when i starting to play with sniper:)))

[EkkuZakku]

I have got to try this game when I get my L96, I just need to find a place to do it.

[brier00]

how do you make your camo?

[phantomTMA]

Watch our "Stealth" preview films, to find out...

Good Hunting ;)

[SilentSnipershot]

@phantomTMA u dont even hunt, you mess around with shitty airsoft guns

[rod4life123maggie]

@SilentSnipershot dude why would you even look this video up phantom has one of those people who have a very very good talent there was no point of even posting on this vid

[MrFarface10118]

in your opinion do you think the Warrior L96(Well mb01) is a good gun

[phantomTMA]

No, I think there are better guns.

Good Hunting ;)

[blind870]

i have got another question =) i live in a colder country (austria) and i would like to buy a spring sniper.. what would you recommend to me ?

[phantomTMA]

bar10 or vsr10.

Good Hunting ;)

[blind870]

@phantomTMA g-spec or pro version of the vsr ?and which tuning parts do i need to make it accurate ?

[phantomTMA]

I like the G spec handle and silencer. Its more expensive but has scope rail too. I have a G-SPEC and 2 pro snipers. I have fitted gspec handle to my fave pro sniper. Get the laylax parts and firefly vsr10 hard rubber.

Good Hunting ;)

[2bad4god443]

@phantomTMA sadly JG is stopping to produce guns because some people found the factory and china and guns over 1,5 Joule are illegal so JG can´t produce any guns at the moment :/

[gunmonkey2000]

i am new to airsoft what would be the best gun around $150 for a new player

[blind870]

i wanna buy the tanaka m40a1. Here some questions. I hope you can answer them:

Is there a difference between the black one and the woodland one ?

Is it accurate?

Which one do you have ? woodland or black?

which gas shall i use?

and dont say it is not for beginners =) cause i have got a ruger superhawk and a l96 softair sniper

[phantomTMA]

I have the original m40a1 USMC version (PCS). The woodland one is identical but comes with an extended magazine. You may have problems with the magazine until you upgrade the internals. If you buy the m40a1 you must fit the vsr hop conversion kit, vsr barrel and vsr nineball rubber to get the full potential and far better accuracy. Use green gas.

Good Hunting ;)

[yayapfool]

@phantomTMA

i can't find this VSR hop up conversion kit

give me a link? haha :)

[AIVger]

wow nice game :)

[snipersean007]

make more of these. :) where do you play? it is very good terrain.

[R493XS]

Nice Camp

[Milesy1818]

once again, outstanding, thanks mate!

[pahicavi]

the "ghillie2 is not so perfect but its a great video i wish more from this good work

[phantomTMA]

Remember that ghillies have to be tailored for the job at hand. This one had to allow me to get within 30m in an open field. Larger ghillies would be more encumbering and cause more movement/noise. As you can see this one allowed me to crawl in close undetected, so as far as I am concerned it did the job.

Good hunting ;)

[Milesy1818]

@phantomTMA Hey phantom, im pretty certain im going to be saving up for the tanaka m40a1, just wondering how long do you gas up the 10 round mag for, how many shots can you get out of it before you have to re-gas on a cold day, and how well does the gas regulate, because I want to use it all year round but afraid that ill go out on the field and be waiting for ages and get 2 shots out of it.... and what gas do you recommend for it to be shooting at 450fps. thanks :)

[phantomTMA]

I gas the mags up until they spit out excess gas. On a hot day you will get around 40 shopts per fill. Around 20 on a cold day. Its OK in the cold as long as its above freezing and you don't try to rapid fire.

Good Hunting ;)

[capone3430]

dont use white bbs use black can see them in air

[phantomTMA]

Sorry you are wrong. If you miss the target, you have no idea where the pellet actually went and cannot compensate on your second shot. Use either white or tan BB's

Good Hunting ;)

[GrandmaTink2945]

actually, its the other way round, unles you're shooting into the sky, you will see you shots with white bbs

[kaptainkashstacka]

Graet music! Try a little more camo on ur torso. I am seeing ur range is not very far so ur camo against the human eye is your bast friend. Try not to crawl over logs, go around them. Simple rule :Keep that belly on the ground!. Never stand completly up, except to bug out! Use the foliage as a shield. If u spot the spotter remain as still as possible. He will go "green blind " in about 2 minutes. Where every thing will start blending to gether and hre wont be able to see u. Nice vid!

[iamajibber]

wow u seem to have a really good knowledge on how to do this stuff, i have no experience myself only 15, wud really like to get into it. were u ever a real sniper or just a game player like these guys?

[DakotaLynnMartin]

Im pretty sure he wasnt cuz he made a common civie mistake. NEVER EVER shoot next to a tree. It is easy to spot someone at a tree because thats is a hot spot that spotters look at. They look for irregular forms at the bottom of trees.

[phantomTMA]

No offence, but I did not shoot from next to a tree.

Good Hunting ;)

[massey6663]

@kaptainkashstacka, you dont need camo on ur torso if you gona be crawling which is why alot of ghille suits dont have fronts to them.

[DakotaLynnMartin]

@kaptainkashstacka You are right about everything here except standing up when bugging out. Your exfiltration is just as important as your infiltration. Really I would never stand up UNLESS you are being attacked by a force signifigantly with the advantage on their side and the zone goes hot. Other than that, stay on your stomache whenever you are within 75 or 100 yards of the populated areas. Try to stay crouched other than that. And what kaptainkashstacka said too.

[kjetil888]

looks like alots of lots of fun! :D nice vid! xD what happens if the sniper dosent gire all hes shots? do he get minus points? but friggin awesome game :D

[phantomTMA]

Cheers. There is no penalty for any shots you do not get off in the hour time limit. You simply lose the chance to gain points.

Good Hunting ;)

[kjetil888]

wow that was quick :DDDD keep it up u guys r the best! :D

[sirah19]

nice vid, what is the first song played ?

[unclesamsplayground]

What does your soul look like-DJ Shadow

[sirah19]

@unclesamsplayground no thats not...

[EvanandBaker]

What sidearm do you currently think would be the best investment? As far as accuracy, reliability, and noise level.

[phantomTMA]

The TM MK23 is best in all 3 of those categories if you use 0.30g pellets. However it is very big and has a long trigger pull and low ROF. If you want a GBB instead get the TM G17 and again use 0.30g pellets, its almost as good, but very loud. The GBB will wear out quicker though, espescially on green gas.

Good Hunting ;)

[141AnTTi]

Whats the name of song? =)

[TheWordsOfGandhi]

what dos y sol look like

[ssbmpalyer2010]

Phantom what power of scope do you use? I was thinking I would only use 4x myself, seeing as how engangement ranges in airsoft are quite limited. Also, 4x doesn't contrict you field of view. What do you think? I was thinking of ordering a PSO-1 for my Dragunov.

[phantomTMA]

I fire on 5 magnification currently. Low magnification is great for spotting, high is only useful in limited situations.

I heard the PSO-1 scope was not very good. Maybe you should read reviews?

Good Hunting ;)

[ssbmpalyer2010]

I've only found one review from an old online gun magazine that had some good things to say about it.

Where did you hear bad things about it?

[xIRACinGKinGx]

get a 3-9 adjustable zoom its good for every situation

[ssbmpalyer2010]

Guys stare at 4:37 seemed a tad dramatic lmao. Very nice videos. :)

[phantomTMA]

yes, makes me laugh too :D

Good Hunting ;)

[maxbender11]

does the silencer work on the MK23

[SgtThomy]

yes it does. Actually there is foam inside the silencer, which absorbs most of the sound.

[ctres94]

great video, just one question. when you put the grass on your rifle, what do you use to hold it on?

[phantomTMA]

elastic bands.

Good Hunting ;)

[ctres94]

so you just put elasic around your gun and tuck in foliage.

[rod4life123maggie]

are you guys just adding attachments to close or ghilles

[phantomTMA]

There is no ghillie in this film. I used a camelback to add grass to.

Good Hunting ;)

[andii194]

Can i ask where you can aquire these sort of realtree face covers?

thanks

[phantomTMA]

e b a y

Good Hunting ;)

[andii194]

you like ebay haha :P what are they called?

[AirsoftSniperNInja]

Does Enland have Dick's Sporting Goods? I know were I live we have that for Face Covers.

[TheIrishboy28]

army navy surplus store..."ghillie suits"

[litewars1]

preety sweet stuff you got going on man 5/5 keep makin' vids

[glitchmaster99]

fuckin hell dont shoot animals with bb guns use an air rifle or a proper rifle

[damcg15]

might i say excellent vid me and my spotter do tht on our field but we do it 2 v2 which means me and my spotter vs another sniper and another spotter i give you 5 stars keep up the excellent work definate subscriber rite here

[Oxstayne]

should of aim a bit higher

[Jorix1234]

do you think with 1,45 joul i can go hunting good or not so good

[phantomTMA]

You can play with 1.45J but obviously not hunt animals. Power needs to suit your terrain (dense terrain needs less power).

Good hunting ;)

[computersANDstuff]

I'll be getting my G-spec quite soon,.....Exciting stuff, eh? :)

[phantomTMA]

Nice one. Good Hunting ;)

[emoX060X]

wow man this is amazing like always i look foward to many more videos man u are my favorite video maker on youtube no one makes them like u man keep up the great work

[Rco92]

anpther person takeing toy guns to serious... but great video and all

[phantomTMA]

thanks, but, we just see the guns as sports equipment. Good Hunting :)

[pollock126]

at 7:51 the wind is on his side caz it makes it look like the wind is blowing the grass rather than him moving the grass i often use this tatic when i have a sniper match in chartlette

[the31337one]

how did you guys film this with out spotting each other.. well with out the spotter spotting you!?

looks fun =3

[phantomTMA]

Its a reconstruction we filmed straight after the game. Good Hunting ;)

[ty12reeder]

Hi again Phantom, this time i was wondering what kind of camo you would recemmend? Like woodland,or something like that.

[phantomTMA]

Hunting patterns that suit your environment are better than generic military patterns. Find the right real tree or advantage clothing. Good Hunting ;)

[snoozlefroose]

could you tell me who makes the M40-A1?

[phantomTMA]

Tanaka Works.

Good Hunting ;)

[snoozlefroose]

thanks

[spitfir3blue]

hey phantom, what is the stuff you're wearing to cover your face and where can i get it? I went to my local Army Surplus store and couldn't find anything like it.

Also how did you make your ghilie?

[phantomTMA]

Get a mesh face veil. Good Hunting ;)

[computersANDstuff]

It's a real tree / Advantage camo face veil.

You cant get it from Airsoft scotland, or just google real tree.

[supersniper67]

has anyone heard of the super 9 version 2 sniper rifle , and if so is it a good gun?

[Godawfull]

super9= fail....

If you want a good sniper rifle, your gona have to drop a good amount of money into it. But if you just want to plink, I guess either a jg bar 10 or a agm mp001 would do you good. Both can be upgraded, if you like sniping.

[ty12reeder]

hey phantom i have been looking around but can not find the tanaka m40a1 and i really want that rifle where did you order yours from??

[phantomTMA]

redwolf

Good Hunting ;)

[R0ninSniper]

Heyy Phantom, I am just beggining at airsoft and i want a good, reliable gun but for a low-cost. Any recommendations?

[phantomTMA]

Try to get the BAR10 by Jing Gong (chinese manufacturer). Good Hunting ;)

[R0ninSniper]

Thanks!

[tigerthiefA3]

hey phantom, i have a desert ghillie suit, is there any way i could make it work in woodland areas?

[phantomTMA]

Yes, either dye it green, or sew in extra foliage loops. A light color base is fine as long as you cover it in real (vertical) foliage. Good Hunting ;)

[mindshooter2]

Sweet video. Make some more of these. 5 stars 100%

[LieuRz]

Nice vid..

[BackgardenBattles]

thats a HOT gun =P

[razzy201]

great vid, but he needs to move position after each shot unless in a very concealed position.

but good ved

[JT0394]

gr8 video very impressed

[whitespott]

it looks like fun but the adreanline rush would kill me (migrains)

[Tr1llobite]

i would still try it if i were you, adrenalin can be controlled, like for me i cannot concentrate, my hands get shaky and i get too anxious to fire, so i have to keep it down just so that i can shoot XD but, if you still cant manage, you still had fun before it hit ya :P

[oscarmiar]

My heart beats like a whole lot when I get out there... I just slow down every once in a while and rest...

[blaszko10]

wyjebiste, świetny pomysł na trening! thank you, phantom, it's awesome

[MP5er123]

Amazing. This looks like sooo much fun. I know a great place to play with a vast forest and a creek in Michigan and once i get my l96 im thinking about playing stalk and shoot with some of my friends :)

[bigg1711]

no real places in MI to play but armory airsoft. Im stuck here w/ u :(

[bigdaddyjoe88]

omg pretty nice ;D !!

[jambiondarun23]

thanks. but do you think that there is a difference in velocity/accuracy between the police and take-down version?

[phantomTMA]

Working from memory, yes the takedown is delivering less power but cannot remember numbers. Good Hunting ;)

[jambiondarun23]

great video. i have a question for you phantom : ]

i was looking into the kjw m700 and there is 2 versions. a police version, and a take-down version. rumor has it that gas leaks through the openings through the take down version. do you think this is true? thanks

[phantomTMA]

A fellow hunter has a kjw takedown as a project gun, but I have only seen it a couple of times. He has modded the hop and stripped then entire mechanism to try and optimise it. Last time on the range I stood and let him shoot at me at around 50-60m. So far he has no changed the inner barrel and tried a nineball rubber but went back to the kjw as it is harder. He could hit me about 50%, with light winds, which was not bad, but not as good as a modded tanaka. Over the chrono it was all over. GH;)

[drew6511]

hey guys even if he did go to sniper school theres a big chance he would fail just like other people sniper school is tough man.

[StillGraffHere]

It's a great training and/or gaming idea. Maybe I'll try it out with my team mates. Good videos you made.

[dylandabomb230]

do you guys reccommend electric airsoft guns like m16 and other stuff, the thing that stops me is are the bateries good

[phantomTMA]

Yes, they are the best starter guns. Good Hunting ;)

[polikijn]

phantom simply rocks,

and about a good sniper rifle i recomend one of not-so-cheap ones because the cheap should break or they arent accurate enough to do such a sniping

[GordonALWAYS]

Why not join the military? It would be a waste of skills not to. But then again some people just don't have the balls to actually face death and see death...

[Boxrag]

It's not about that.

This is about something these guys enjoy doing. They don't WANT to join the military.

[StealthySniperSam]

yes and besides maybe they dont feel like being in danger. they probably do this for fun and to practice something so they have fun.i mean,if they screw up on this they are ok,if they screw up on that,theyre dead.

[unclewaltsoup]

Might want to try it with some grey bb's

[phantomTMA]

Why? I was not spotted due to my pellets trajectory. Good Hunting ;)

[unclewaltsoup]

The possibility is there though. Just a suggestion.

[phantomTMA]

Now I only use supergrandmaster pellets (0.29g) as they are the best quality/tolerences on the market. Good Hunting ;)

[nathankhalsa33]

im looking for a sniper myself but not to expensive, and just something simple, what would you recomend?

[phantomTMA]

JG BAR10. Good hunting ;)

[gbuko2391]

Hey man GREAT video(s)!! I really respect you guys because i know how long all that stuff takes to set up and do. I just have 2 questions for you.

1. Is that just a molle backpack that you tied all the vegetaion to? If not what is it?

2. My old sniper broke :( and i need a new one. Would you recommend the UTG L96 or the JG BAR10?

Your answers will be very much appriciated.

Thank you!

-gbuko2391

[phantomTMA]

Thanks.

1. it is just a 3ltr camelback with bungees I added on the fly.

2. Get the JG BAR10 but expect to have to replace the sears.

Good Hunting ;)

[nathankhalsa33]

i would recomend the JG BAR10 because l96 is good and effective, but the weight is to much to handle carrying around, i have it myself and it is kind of difficult.

[0Statix0]

Spend a bit more get TM VSR 10 G-SPEC great quality internals and you can customize it completely theres so many items for it on hte market.

[peilethan]

too many shots from one position.

[KOLKKOTIN]

If you see your enemies from one spot, and remaing perfectly unseen, why should you?

[BatterySokka]

Is the tanaka m40a1 a reliable gun stock ?

[phantomTMA]

yes. it will go for thousands of shots before you start to get wear on the impact plates (magazines), hammer and cocking piece (bolt). However, it no longer comes with PCS bolt. This means you will either get a full power one (export model) or Japanese version (limited to 350fps). The 2ROY kit replaces this nozzle to full power version. Good Hunting

[phantomTMA]

Please subscribe to be the 1000th! Good Hunting for the NEW YEAR ;)

[SniperRulez89]

hi phanotm .. i'd like to start to play AS as a sniper ... do u hae any suggest for the equipment to buy? about the ghillie i have to choose it for the place where i'll play ... ps: nice video ^^ (5)

[phantomTMA]

Buy a Bar10 rifle, decent clothing and footwear, a short peaked cap, some elastic, rubber bands, gloves, a mesh face veil, eye protection of your choice that comes upto local fields safety standards. If your games are short, then try to go without webbing/vest etc and stay minimal. A camelback is a nice piece of kit too. Good Hunting ;)

[sodaaddict96]

i love the way u camo your gun how do you go about doing that awsom vid
