If you want to go into an anti-air or anti-vehicle turret, set up a sentry so that it is pointed towards the turret. That way, when people (And they almost always do) go up to knife you instead of shooting you, they get a nasty surprise.

That's pretty damn sneaky, but can't a single sniper shot deactivate the Sentry turret?

I would also use this as a notification. If I hear my Sentry going off or get shot, you bet I'm running out of that "knife cage"

Ah, very good advice. Once I unlock the sentry (it'll be a very long time), I'll be sure to do this.

gundamfan-
after you unlock the Sentry, stop there and move over to the right side of the tree. Don't get the Ganz H-MG. It's a waste of an unlock as many on this board will agree.

1 zeller shot
2 normal sniper shots

Either way, when you hear your sentry getting downed, you know its time to hide or hunt the sniper.

why waste that second sniper shot on a turret, snipe it once and then pistol it a few times. I've got something like 2 sniper kills and a bunch of pistol kills by switching to my sidearm for the kill

because by then, the dude in the turret has picked up on you and is jumping out of his turret getting you in his sites while you are pistol whipping his sentry.

or you could be patient and sniper shot him in the head, then take your time destroying his sentry?

Sometimes its hard to take the guy into the gun just because hes facing your position, just wait until he turns. Very cool trick to not get knifed easily Maj.
