The whole point of snipers is their long range advantage, give them one at close range and its unbalanced

I think the semi-auto's should have crosshairs but not a high accuracy.
If there were no crosshairs and were uber-accurate I'd pwn so badly. Years of no crosshair training helps me everywhere.

The bf2s Wiki compares the M16 unscoped to the SVD and concludes that "the SVD would have trouble hitting the broad side of a barn" while unscoped. They're not kidding, folks. Here's the SVD's 10-shot performance:
Note that I actually had to back away from that wall after I unloaded the thing, the recoil caused some of the bullet holes to fall outside of the screen (!)
Same deal with the bolt action rifles:
Again, I backed away slightly from the wall afterwards to show all the bullet holes.
Tell me that's a tad bit unrealistic...

LOL, point made! +1
I like cheese and I don't care about this because I usually zoom in with my sniper rifle.
In Call of Duty 2, the sniper rifles have crosshairs and are pretty accurate when they're up close. That's one thing I don't like about it, it ruins the gameplay, because there's no real disadvantage if you choose a sniper rifle (there should be). Nothings more aggravating than getting sniped from 2 m. it's bull
It's in the game for balance. They did it for a reason.
