in all it's vary good but you might whant the 16 inch sniper barrel for it for increased paformans
It is a great beginners gun for the price. It is powerful and accurate. The only problem I have had so far (which is very minor) is that the top cocking bolt blocks your view down the sights but it isnt a major issue. The double trigger is nice. Overall, this is an amazing gun for the price.

I just started my friend got me into it and its a great sport. As a begginer i was very cuatious about what i got i m not that heavy into it but wen i go i have a good time ecpesially with this gun i wouldn t recommend this to any pro but its a good gun to start out with.
I use this gun quite a bit. This is a great gun as far as im concerned. You're best off using this gun for woodsball because it doesn't have the highest rate of fire. Overall a great buy.

pretty good gun, the feed-neck is a piece of junk though so you might need to upgrade to something better, its a little on the heavy side but its still easy to move around with, this gun is really easy to maintain and the bolt is really easy to clean, the trigger is o.k. it wobbles around a little bit, overall its a really great beginner gun but if you have the money you might want to get something better

this gun is hard to fire, it would be way better if you get an e trigger
has upgradable barrels, stocks, scopes, sights, and more. elbow goes out to side, so you can have better aiming an sights. switches from big sniper to small gun for speedball in under 40 seconds easily.
i have this gun its a great gun its prity accurate, unless you dont clean it so clean the barrel very well.
it shoots very fast its so powerfull great distance

well im a noob,its my first marker.ive played about 6 days total(diff weekends)at a full tacticial woodsball course.ive added a 20 in riffled barrel,72cu in 3000 psi pure energy,remote line,offset scope mount with reddot,rap4 m4 stock,E-TRIGGER, kingman fasta lcd loader,core fill neck.well it hasent failed me yet,for a noob ive gotten my share of goggle shots on some vets,and complements by the reffs on how accurate it was. one reff couldnt believe it was a MR1,shot a guy in the goggles while he was in the sniper tower. its not always the gun but how you play with your team,this is a great beginer marker ,easy to clean and break down,reliable,and cheap, a good buy ,but needs a good barrel,A MUST

from valparaiso, IN on 5/3/2009
this was my first gun and it was pretty good for a beginner. chops a lot of paint when firing in bursts. it gets very heavy with a full hopper and a 20 oz co2 tank
from angier,nc on 4/22/2009

from nashua, nh on 4/22/2009

My brother had one and i would take it when he would not play with us and i was the best player out there.
Take good care of it though because his doesnt work now because he didnt care for it and it sucks. so TAKE CARE OF IT

This gun is VERY well made. it says it's a woodsball marker, but it is one heck of a tourney marker!
[1 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
they marker is great.its my first maker and i love it.the only possible problem is that the ball is a little loose in the barrel. There is too much space for you to lose accuracy.So im buying a different barrel.
This gun is so sick it so hot the only thing that is bad is that it is a little heavy(but only if you used to like egos and ions)

Good enough. Especially for the price.

Ive owned this gun since it came out the stock barrel is ok but ive owned a few spyders so i always have a better barrel kicking around, the gun will chop if you over shoot with a regular hopper i got a ehopper so that problem is solved i love this gun its served me well these past few years.

this is a very good beginner gun. It's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[3 of 3 customers found this review helpful]
Everything is pretty good about the gun, Its just the trigger pull is far and it only has to go down two thirds of the way to fire. A trigger stop of some sort fixes that. All in all it is a fantastic gun.

from Good ole' U.S. of A. on 11/22/2008
I use it for speedball as well as woodsball and when I play speedball I take off the stock,(Yes the stock is easily detachable)and when I'm snipering I put the stock on.
This is the best gun for younger players because it will take more abuse than most guns.Oh, and it also has a sight rail,Sweet!

from South Hero VT on 9/24/2008
I bought this as my first marker and it has served me well. it's not the most accurate at long distances, it shoots like a tipman 98. very easy to use, simple design, good starting marker.very durable, i use mine at an outdoor course and occasionally get dirt in the barrel, but it keeps shooting fine and is very easy to clean with a squeegee. low maintainence gun and probably the best you can but for the price

Well built, sturdy. But, I recommend getting a rifled barrel to increase accuracy.

from Sorrento, FL on 9/4/2008
This is a truly gun. As you can see, I didn't have any cons for it. It's very accurate with the stock barrel, it fires reasonably fast, the velocity is great, it's great with gas, and it feels close to a real gun.
I'll cover the pro's and con's possible for it:
Accurate
Definitely. With CO2, it shoots about a four inch pattern at 50 yards.
Different Firing Modes
It's a mechanical, so no. There's just Safety On and Safety Off.
Easy to Operate
Definitely. Because it's mechanical, there's no question with the board. Just pop the tank on and put a hopper on and you're set. You can easily adjust the velocity with a hex screw at the rear.
High Rate of Fire
It's got about a 6.5 out of 10 star quality for the trigger pull weight. I plan on getting an upgrade spring kit to make it faster.
Lightweight
Not really. It's a tactical woodsball gun. It's not made for running and diving. It's not excessively heavy, just not great for woodsball.
Powerful
Yes, it is. The velocity just about max's out at 320. As I've mentioned several times, it's great for woodsball, and rally helps knock people out.
Easy to Clean
I made this one as it wasn't on the list. Like all other Spyders, it's very easy to clean, especially with the quick-strip pin. Also, it's simple to disassemble and reassemble. Nothing like as hard as a Tippmann 98 Custom.
Chops Paint
Ive never had it chop paint on me, though I haven't had it long. I bought it second-hand from a friend, and he's never had a chop, either.
Difficult to set up
Basically, look at the Easy to Operate section above.
Inaccurate
No, just when it's getting low on CO2. I've yet to use this gun with HPA, though.
Limited Adjustability
No. Look to the Powerful and Easy to Operate sections above.
Low Velocity
As I've said, it's got perfect velocity.
I would recommend upgrading the barrel, springs, and feedneck. The barrel, so that it goes a little bit farther. The springs, so it fires faster. The feedneck, so that you don't need an elbow. Make sure to get a clamping feedneck for it. And, as with all guns, it's nice to have a regulator or On/Off valve
I highly recommend this gun to anyone and everyone. You can upgrade it easily, like a Tippmann, but it's cheaper than so.
