Our fields around here though only let players carry one primary and a GBB secondary (ergo no AEG as secondary). But your setup seems like it'd be perfect for snipers to have fun and be effective.

It's very effective and you can literally decide at the moment what the best approach to the situation would be. Even though my M24 weighs 14-16lbs, and tends to get caught on branches (takes some skill to move quietly through brush, dipping th eshoulder and guiding the barrel around things), there have been times I've left it at respawn or the staging area and been pissed because the situation I just came across would have been perfect for it. So I go almost full time with it slung, just makes the left shoulder ache after a good day of stalking and running.
AND, I have a full ghillie suit and do that role 100% when the need to arises, which is few and far between, but at least I have the skills and knowledge to do it when the mission calls for a sniper/scout. So I literally have the best of both worlds.
