One of the most important things to remember with airsoft sniper rifles is "you must use high quality BB's". If a bb jams and you fire the gun a second time you will shower the internal piston and other cylinder parts with fragments of broken airsoft BB. If the bb is not cleared and you fire again, damage to the piston or o-rings is certain to occur.
Prevent this from happening to you, by learning how to field strip your sniper rifle quickly and effectively in the field. Become familiar with the field breakdown of your particular model airsoft sniper and you will be a better and happier airsoft player. You will need to have hand tools with you and a small amount of silicone grease to lubricate your airsoft sniper rifle once field repairs are completed. The sear assembly of the L96 uses two oddly bent springs that should be kept on hand in case they break. Be sure the sear pin is positioned correctly or the spring will be unable to be cocked. Many veteran airsoft snipers like the smooth sliding bolt action and easy cocking of the model 96 sniper. With proper care and lubrication a 96 model airsoft sniper can consistently deliver Bb's down range at upgraded velocities of 550FPS and be effective out to 250 feet or more.
Getting repair parts for the L96 is also easy as they are being used on airsoft game fields across the country. This will be an important consideration for any airsoft gun purchase, but an upgraded sniper rifle will need periodic repairs due to the forces being applied. When the barrel and the cylinder are separated for maintenance or repairs you must make sure all parts are installed correctly and properly aligned or you risk breaking several components on the first shot. If you are not sure how something goes back together Ask someone, search google or find an airsoft sniper gun repair pictures to check and make sure you are right. After several repetitions of stripping down and re assembling and maintaining your airsoft spring powered sniper rifle you will be ready for any airsoft war. One thing most snipers must consider in any airsoft skirmish is a small backup airsoft machine gun for those times you are not so stealthy and are under attack. A sniper rifle in this scenario does not provide enough cover fire to retreat. I suggest you visit Wisconsin's airsoft headquarters and pick up one of the low priced guaranteed quality checked airsoft guns available here.
