my spyder gun hybrid question


"i've somewhat recently picked up a spyder vs2 paintball gun that has a regulator that doesn't work and a somewhat upped xtra. I put the trigger frame from the spyder vs2 onto the xtra, but to do so i had to pull the eyes. now that the thing is rigged up, when i turn the board on, the lights go red. Is there any way I can make this thing shoot without the eyes plugged in? I would just like to know before i chop part of the body off to fit the vs2 gun bolt and put a bunch of money in upgrades if it isn't even going to work.

i got it used and as soon as i plugged my tank in i took about 20 shots and then realized the pressure was 300+ so i turned it down to the regular 150 and then the orings inside must have blown or something cause now it leaks out of every possible area on the bottomline reg. previous owner said this was the second reg that he had gone through

either way i thought it would be fun to have a second project paintball gun but i don't want to dump a bunch of money into it if i don't know whether the board will work without the eyes or not"

"itd probably be better to use xtra parts and put them onto the spyder vs series than vice versa."

"except the trigger frames are shaped different. the old spyders have a curve to fit the body while the spyder vs2 paintball marker frame is flat. this creates a little space between the body and the frame but it still fits and the sear still catches. essentially i know that it will work i just need to know if anyone knows if the board will still work if the eyes are disconnected or if there is someway to wire the relay so that it does work."
