But only if it has had the high value adding Tactical Bolt knob put on and is Krylon painted flat black.
Not only does this make an off the shelf factory rifle now a "Sniper Rifle" it also doubles the value of said rifle.
With the original poster listing their location as Ilderton, ON, shooting as far as you can see will have you shooting across 4 other farms and a concession road to your target. This area is all small farms and houses in rural southern Ontario. Not really long range territory.
I feel that we should never call any of our guns "sniper rifles". Hunting rifles, target/competition rifles, or collectors/air-looms... that's all I would say. The anti's use the word "sniper rifle" to make our guns sound evil.
He's got one post and nowhere does it say he's waiting for his PAL....
My guess is is that he's a Call Of Duty nerd who wants a "Tacticool" rifle.
"Call of Duty nerds" might be the best chance we have of a future in this hobby, I wouldn't be too quick to dissuade them. I don't care what influences people to take up shooting as a hobby just as long as the sport keeps growing.
I think video games can be a good foray into becoming familiar with firearms. When introduced to firearms and taught proper safety techniques the "Call of Duty nerds" quickly realize the difference between real life and a video game, but the interest in firearms as a hobby will usually still remain.
They need to get out of their moms basement first in order to enjoy the hobby.
Well, if you know any then invite them.
I have a 12 year old nephew that is looking into getting his minor's license. You have to start somewhere.

Anything that shoots a projectile, from a paintball gun to a .20mm anti material rifle (and everything in between) can be considered a sniper's weapon when you hand it to a sniper and give him an objective. It's the mindset and constant training that makes snipers what they are; their rifles are just another tool that they use.

Thats what first came to my mind. Its a sniper rifle when used by a sniper in the situations that they operate.
A rifle becomes a sniper rifle only when it is ordained as such by the sniper who uses it for that purpose. However, the "sniper rifle" is really just a rifle. For example: When does a bomb become a suicide bomb? When does a Ferrari become a race car? What differentiates a car from a "get-away-car"? How about a person and a sniper or a woman and a whore? A rifle is a rifle, a car is a car, a bomb is a bomb a person is a person and a woman is a woman. An adjective is just an adjective.
Hey.......When does a rifle become a super evil woman and baby-killer? When a Liberal sees it!

I just bought one of these babies:
Milsig SRT Sniper Desert Ops Custom:
I am able to utilize three different barrel setups, I can easily switch from a Precision rifle, battle rifle, or Commando style CQB setup.
But don't worry, it's just a paintball gun - it won't harm anyone, neither will the adjectives!
