Spyder Fenix ACS Paintball Gun Question


Spyder Fenix ACS Parts and Upgrades

Q: I'm new to paintball and i got a new Spyder Fenix ACS paintball gun with an Empire Reloader 2, and just a pure energy 20 oz co2 tank. I ordered a spyder pilot acs paintball gun and they sent this by mistake (oh well, i looked it up and its more expensive so im not sending it back) and i dont have a very high budget cuz i have to work for my money and i need to know some upgrades that are good but not too expensive.

A: Spyder Fenix ACS Paintball Gun is nicer, and harder to find for sure.

I would get a barrel and a nice feedneck (if you have problems with whatever the stock feedneck is), and possibly look into a trigger if you don't like yours. The thing is that even with a new trigger you won't be able to walk the gun fast because the microswitch is so heavy (250 grams), but you can replace that with a 50 gram switch that would make it much easier.

Beyond that I wouldn't upgrade anything. If you plan on getting a higher-end paintball gun later on then you'll eventually need HPA (sometimes known as nitro), which is always a good upgrade to get for any paintball gun. But don't worry about that yet, co2 is fine.
