If you’re a big fan of recreational shooting, then you’ll have a basic understanding of the importance of gel blasters and the go-to bolt-on snipers you can get. However, not all snipers are built equal. The VSR-10 is perhaps considered one of the best, trusted by players who are often chasing consistent long-range accuracy and durability for the field.
For those who love the control and stealth that the VSR-10 brings, this bolt-on sniper offers great gameplay for Australia’s gelball community. This guide will share everything you need to know about unboxing, assembly, and setup, as well as how to get the most out of this custom-made gel blaster.
Unboxing the VSR-10, assembly & how to get set up
Inside the VSR-10, the tactical sniper rifle comes with a precision-engineered metal bolt, a pre-installed hop-up system and a polymer stock for weight balance. Once unboxed, it’s time to assemble the VSR-10. Here are some quick and helpful steps to get started.
Secure the barrel assembly
To secure the barrel assembly on your VSR-10, you’ll want to first connect the outer barrel to the receiver. The VSR-10’s barrel assembly is attached with two screws through the stock.
Attach the bolt handle
The bolt handle will come separate due to it being a custom gun. The assembly process typically involves reinserting the bolt and cylinder unit into the receiver and then securing it with screws.
Mount your preferred optic to the top rail system
You’ll now want to mount your preferred optic to the top rail system. This can be done with a hex wrench or a flathead screwdriver. It’s worth having a bubble level for leveling the rifle and scope, and a stable surface to work on.
Load quality gels
To load gels, you should have high-quality gels that are hydrated to prevent jams and ensure consistency in your performance. Hardened or ultra gels are more uniform in size and, therefore, a better option for the VSR-10.
Fire test and calibrate
For a VSR-10, you should fire the blaster with gel ammunition and calibrate it before using. Fire it in a safe area.
How VSR-10 performs on the field
The VSR-10 is designed for precision. Many players who have the bolt-on gel blaster already get a reliable FPS performance of around 280-300, depending on the gels picked and the environment.
Many of the players love it for the crisp feedback provided by the bolt-action system, and the reward it gives players who prefer the accuracy over just spraying ammunition and hoping for the best. So what are some of the highlights of the VSR-10 on the playing field?
-
Provides long-range accuracy
-
Tactical balance due to its lightweight but solid feel

Durability under pressure
The VSR-10 proves to be a one-shot-one-hit for many players, both as beginners and seasoned experts.
