Spyder VS3 paintball gun & Ion Xe?


"I'm wanting to buy one of these paintball guns but dont really know how well they perform or how reliable, now i had a spyder pilot and i hated that thing.... had so many electrical problems with it but again it was co2 and these are nitrogen so any tips on which paintball gun i should get, or mabye you know a even better paintball gun as long as its 300 or under."

"Using co2 on the kingman didn't effect the electronics, it only cycles the pneumatics. Kingmans lower end paintball markers always have a few kinks here and there in it but nothing too big. If you didn't like how the spyder pilot handled you most likely wont enjoy the spyder vs3 paintball gun. Kingmans double stacked blow back markers don't really do the job when it comes to speed and operation, My vote goes for the ion paintball marker. The smart parts ion is a cheap readily available marker that has revolutionized the paintball market as far as amazing entry level markers are concerned. It has many, many mods available and has a smooth operation. You'll want to use hpa with these because the pneumatics are completely different that an open bolt like your past spyder paintball gun and requires consistancy that only a clean gas source could offer."
