I would lower the distance between the two elbows and make the chamber a bit larger. Also, a stock (or a better stock) would work well on a sniper as well as for stability. And for my last suggestion, I would recommend interchangeable barrels and have the second barrel be a gravity fed magazine. How's that?

I made a suppressor the same way just a few days ago, but a cool idea for the gun would be to cover it with camo duct tape, it adds protection from the gun bursting and it looks cool.

Camo duct tape may look cool and cover unsightly primer, but one thing it will NOT do is protect you from razor sharp pvc chuncks traveling at high velocity.
