    Posted: 08 December 2004 at 9:12pm
So here i am, off of work and at home, laying back in my chair going through posts on this forum and i see a post that says "Spyder, Don't Laugh" I read the post and some people dont seem to like Spyder Markers. I do not own a Marker by Spyder, nor have i ever in the past. so my question is this, why do people not like spyders? Ive herd lots of opinion about why people dont like that brand but quiet frankly opinions dont mean anything next to facts. So i am looking for some one who has facts of why Spyders are bad markers, i dont want opinion on why you dont like them tell me what it is about the type of marker that if factualy flawed. I usualy say "all opinions are welcome" on most of my posts, but in this case if you have an opinion about why Spyders arnt any good then dont post anything.  Thanks

There not bad markers at all. They just seem to have the more then average amount of lemons(just happen to get a bad marker) then other companies. And they are known for having weak bodys, which I found to be untrue.

oive gone through my share of spyders. personally, they are not bad guns performance wise. but they break easily. i even have the new spyder fenix and you always have to make sure everything is clean and tight before playin or else it will break or fall apart

Spyders are fine, if you're willing to give them a little TLC.

My friends used Spyder Victors and then moved up to A5's and surprisingly the A5's had more problems then the spyders. My friend even nicknamed his old victor the AFGHAN GUN, and I have no clue why.

ive shot 3 different spyders..........all lower end spyders 1 semi..........and 2 electros....the imagine chopped balls like no other......in fact the kid that owned is now wishing he would have bought a tippmann and is looking to sell his imagine. the compact 2000 was ur avg semi....and the other spyder was a low end electro which did fine untill it caught a paintball in the open bolt and then the electro was messed up and it wouldnt hardly fire at all........but other than that it did fine. actually the kid sold that gun and wishes he had kept it even tho he now followed me and bought an a-5....i just love tippmans and wouldnt ever buy a spyder simply b/c they dont look near as cool as tippmanns...or are half as durable as tippmans....my guns has been to hell and back and still runs as good as it did out of the box.

never listen to him, he really doesnt know what he's talking about, spyders are good guns for the price. Yes the t-board makes them into different guns, but they are good stock(except for the barrel). The reason you see people bashing spyders on this forum is because it is a tippmann forum. Typically people with tippmanns dont like spyders. And of course people with cockers think there God. It's the same on every forum

i personally have a spyder xtra which i have kitted out with fenix electronic trigger , shocktech supafly bolt, java expansion chamber and bottomline , as well as a trinity low pressure chamber and i am gonna tell ya right now i love my a5 but that spyder will put a bruise on ya faster than you can spit but of course i had to change the barrell put a jcs autococker adapter to it and got a good deal on a pmi razzor barrell that makes it deadly ... watch out for spyders because from what i hear the new fenix they have out is a pretty sharp gun as well ... but I LOVE MY A5

With the Correct upgrades I would pin up a Spyder Fenix Vs. Impulse/Bushy/BKO/MiniMag/E-Tippmanns/Rat Jr.'s/Omen/Primal/Mech Cocker.  Any Day/Month/Year.

  • Rock'n E-Frame w/ T-Board
  • Lapco Claming Feedneck
  • Lapco Bigshot
  • Dead on. Pro2
  • Palmer Stabalizer
  • AKA Lighting Bolt.
Just add those Upgrades to a Fenix(Non ACS) and you'll Completly Rip up a Field...

I think its because it has 2 switchs instead of one. I may be wrong. Email them.

I Have about if a 25gram T-Switch would work in a Rock'n Frame, and wondering when the Rock'n Frame w/ T-Board would be in Production, they replied pretty Quick. I'll Have to Drop them another e-mail soon Because I dont want to have a Fenix that Rips, but cant be in a tournment due to its pivital Trigger... that would totaly suck.
