What is an Airsoft DMR?
DMR stands for Designated Marksman’s Rifle and is a term used both in the real firearms world and in Airsoft. Real world DMR rifles fill a void in capability between a standard assault rifle and longer ranged weapons such as sniper rifles and medium machine guns.
An Airsoft DMR is an Airsoft rifle which is typically longer than the average rifle, locked to semi-automatic fire only and capable of shooting at a higher FPS, depending on the limits set by the skirmish site the DMR is being used at.

DMR rifles are generally for advanced users and require extensive internal upgrades which need to be carried out by a professional or a technically inclined Airsofter with experience under their belt.
A DMR is more of a build objective than an off-the-shelf rifle you can buy, though there are some Airsoft companies that have made out-of-the-box DMR rifles, such as ARES with their AR-308L DMR, which is the easiest way currently to get your hands on a proper Airsoft DMR.
DMR-style Airsoft rifles are very popular at woodland skirmishes, but actual DMRs which are locked to semi-auto are quite rare due to the expense and difficulty of building them.

It is absolutely possible to play as a Designated marksman with a long-barreled AEG with a magnified optic, and you will find you are able to fulfil the role effectively even without upgrades, though they are always a possibility down the line.
While extra FPS that a DMR build has will give a range increase, the jury is still out on whether the extra range gained from an extra ~50FPS is worth it as a trade-off for giving up fully automatic, and whether similar performance can be gained with a sub-350FPS AEG with an inner barrel and HOP-up upgrade, and the right ammo.
Airsoft DMR Types
There are two types of DMR rifles you will encounter at an Airsoft skirmish; the high FPS DMR builds, and the long barreled DMR style rifles. Which of these you go for depends on your experience level, technical knowledge and what you want to achieve on the battlefield. Read on if you want a bit more detail about each type of DMR!
