Description
Lancer Tactical LT-20 M82 Sniper Rifle (Spring – Tan)
The Lancer Tactical LT-20 is a spring-powered airsoft rifle styled on the M82, the large-format semi-automatic rifle that is instantly recognisable from films, games and military photographs. Finished in tan, it is a full-size, manually cocked single-shot rifle that gives you a dramatic centrepiece for a sniper, recon or support role.
Lancer Tactical are known for making airsoft affordable without cutting corners on what matters, and the LT-20 brings the M82’s imposing look within reach of most players. Its polymer body keeps the weight manageable despite the size, and spring operation means there is nothing to charge and no gas to buy, so it is ready whenever you are.
How it works
Each shot is cocked by hand, which compresses the spring ready to fire. Pull the trigger and the spring drives the piston forward, sending a single BB down the barrel. Because the power comes entirely from the spring, the rifle performs the same in a cold winter woodland as it does on a summer’s day, which is a real advantage over gas-powered sniper rifles.
Firing modes are simply safe and single shot. That makes every shot deliberate and encourages good fieldcraft: pick your position, wait for the right moment and make the shot count.
Build and handling
The body is polymer with a full metal outer barrel, keeping the overall weight to around 6.75lb (empty) even though the rifle measures roughly 55 inches long. A monolithic top rail gives a long, stable platform for mounting a scope, and the rifle breaks down into two pieces for easier storage and transport.
The magazine holds 25 rounds and includes a handy spare compartment that can hold extra BBs, small tools or accessories. A speed loader is supplied to help you refill the magazine quickly between engagements.
Setting it up
No scope is included, so you can choose the optic that suits the way you play, from a simple red dot for short-range woodland work to a magnified scope for picking out targets at distance. A bipod is a worthwhile addition for a rifle of this size, giving you a steady rest when shooting prone or from cover.

Compatibility
The top rail accepts standard Picatinny/Weaver-pattern scope mounts, rings and red dot sights. Spare magazines should be the LT-20/M82-pattern magazines made for this rifle; check with us before ordering if you are unsure.
Use good quality, seamless 6mm BBs. For a spring sniper rifle, heavier BBs are usually more stable in the air, so try a range of weights and settle on the one that groups best in your rifle.
Care and maintenance
Never dry-fire a spring rifle repeatedly without BBs, as this can stress the piston and cylinder. Do not leave the rifle cocked when it is not in use; store it uncocked so the spring is not under constant compression.
Clean the inner barrel periodically with a cleaning rod and a lightly dampened patch, and keep BBs clean and dry. Wipe the rifle down after damp games and let it dry fully before putting it away in its bag or case.
Who is it for?
The LT-20 suits players who want a striking, full-size sniper rifle without the cost of gas or batteries, and anyone building an M82-themed loadout. Its simple spring operation also makes it an easy rifle to own and maintain.
Please note: No scope or bipod is included. Always wear suitable eye and face protection and check the power limits and any minimum engagement distances at your site before play.
