There should just be a dedicated spotter with the sniper then they could work in sync for two levels of engagements(sp?) after someone gets within the MED range of the sniper just get the spotter to take over with the shooting for a while. that seems like a lot better of an idea than breaking off or switching to a side arm. plus the spotter spotting for the sniper haha:P either way, there are other ways to get around things, not saying it should be an applied rule or anything but i think its a good way to bring someone into sniping, to get more used to MED's and to better their patience and overall skill.
my two cents.
