Gun Model

I'm planning on making a paintball sniper rifle, I also want to build a model of a gun around it, out of wood most likely. I need suggestions on a gun that is cool and would be easy to build, not too worried about detail.

Just type the name of the gun and I can look it up.

These look like they could be made out of a coaxial cannon.

If I have the right tools I might make it look like a 50 Cal, it's a simple cool looking gun.

there is an upgrade that gives the xm8 a sniper rifle barrel. do some research before you post.

Actually the XM8 comes in a sniper variant.

I might use a 2" Chamber with a 2"tee in the back so I can use a clip in a coaxial, I'll have the bolt attached to to the piston to make it an auto-loader.

I well know the Xm8 And even if there is an upgrade, the Xm8 stay a close fire fire arm and the upgrade are better more for the sight than for the range ...

Get off that subject, do you know of any guns that would fit what I'm looking for?

P.S. Would a 3/4" with a 1.5" chamber make a good coaxial?

I like that gun too, looks a lot like the .50 cal. I'm most likely going to use one of these.

The wierd looking one would be easy to cut out of wood. If I changed it a little it could look pretty cool.

The AMR is my favourite weapon of all times.
But design-wise, I'd go for the H&K PSG-1 any time.
