Leszek gives a rundown on the licensed Desert Tech SRS-A2 airsoft sniper rifles made by Silverback Airsoft and are available at Gunfire... "We present a new series of spring sniper replicas manufactured by the Silverback Airsoft brand. The SRS-A2 (Scout Recon Stealth) replicas are an improved version of the well-known compact bullpup sniper rifles. As part of the modification, the producer used a CNC handguard in the M-LOK standard and a steel tripod assembly with a 1 / 4-20 UNC thread.
Garand Thumb had a go with the Desert Tech MDR. A bullpup design, it fires the either the .308 Win/BLK or the .224 Wylde and can be quickly coverted between multiple calibres. The barrel is a free float design and is fully ambidextrous in operation. The airsoft version, being made by Silverback Airsoft has yet to make its debut.

This is a bullpup rifle that is highly configurable and hopefully we get the airsoft version by the end of this year...
