| Kingman's Spyder Sport paintball marker features a 2nd generation Venturi bolt with air through the fore grip and a strong composite frame. It includes a micro-polished, ported, muzzle break barrel and a .45 grip frame with rubber grips for a secure grip in the field. The double trigger offers you fast and controlled firing. |

| Conclusion: |
i bought this gun just because it was under $100 and my friends and i play at a custom made field thats 3 min away from my house, so i can just play around and have a nice friendly game without any worries about it.
this gun is next to useless. you can't use it in the cold weather because the barrel is horrible, the internal mechanism is second-hand crap, and it can easily crack. it's not upgradable and it does not come with an expansion chamber. even if you want to put one on, it uses weak plastic treads to screw it in.
i went to skirmish yesterday and acctually used this gun. i couldnt play on the first field because balls kept breaking and the paint got into my hopper, so i had to waste a lot of paint. i only had the gun working file for 2 rounds. the last field was the pentagon and is supposed to be one of the really fun fields. i wouldn't know because i couldn't play because my gun went out on me again. basically i should have never used the spyder sport, it was a waste of time and money.
conclusion: waste of time, money, and space. even if you paid $75 for it, i'd say u got taken for about $50. |

| Review: |
This is a good beginner gun although they don't really sell this gun anymore, I wouldn't really recommend this gun if you are starting out buy a tippman 98. This gun could use a lot of upgrades including a new trigger and a new barrel. This gun was good for me, but seeing that they don't sell them anymore it is pretty useless. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a very cheap gun and you get what you pay for. |

| Review: |
I just bought this gun, i shot it once, it worked... second shot the bolt poped out through the barrel. Don't buy this gun, spend a few more bucks and buy something better. Beginner or otherwise, this gun sucks. Do not buy this gun, you'll be wasting money, no doubt. This gun is shady, janky, etc. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Overall bad gun, don't but it. You'll be wasting money.. i'm pissed that i spent $60 on garbage. |

| Review: |
i first bought this gun off of wal-mart when it first came out it. when i got it the gun worked great until i went to play with it and it started leaking Co2 pretty bad so i lossend the low pressure valve and wrapped the threads with a ton of that white plumbers pvc tape till it sealed it perfectly. then the bolt broke on me later finding out kingman used a cheap plastic bolt instead of a normal aluminum or derlin bolt. it is a good gun you just need to upgrade it abit and then it should work great |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great gun just get a new barrel and bolt |

| Review: |
This is the worst gun i have ever used in my entire paintball career, fairly inaccurate, cheap non abs plastic body, i dropped it once and the body literally broke in half, trigger frame broke off, just a horribly bad gun all in all, not even a good gun to start with. waists allot of co2 also |
|
| Conclusion: |
Never buy this spyder especially, i have not recomended a single spyder since this one |

| Strengths: |
VERY easy field strip, pretty good with the air, accurate to a certain extent |
|
| Weaknesses: |

|
| Review: |
Well, this gun is pretty good considering it needs only one or two things fixed within the first itme of getting it........and the CO2 is pretty nice so, i am happy with this gun..you may wanna get a new barrel like a longer one and can add some UMPH to the thing you know.......this is my first gun and probably my last, i am planning to stick with the sport for years or until it craps out on me...........keep the paint flying |
|
| Conclusion: |
its a 10 because for this being my first gun it isn't all that hellish......once in a while it chops paint, but what gun doesn't? |

| Review: |
My spyder sport I bought from a friend all stock. The gun really sucked until I bought a reinforced to bolt and got a 16 in. terminator barrol. Using nelson hotspot or evil paintballs the most I have chopped is 3 in a game. Nelson and evils (having your velocity adjusted right) have good distance and ( with my barrol) are really accurate. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This gun is a good gun if you give it time and up grades. |

| Review: |
My friend bought this gun at sports authority "on sale" for 95$. He maintained it well until about a year ago when he got his tippmann. My gun broke one game so he let me use it. This gun was ok. When I used it the balls were horribly inaccurate or they chopped so I used my brothers stock JT barrel and it got somewhat better. The main thing I like about this gun is that it is so light and yet it can reasonably unload paint. The only time ive ever seen this gun completely and permanently break was when the bolt broke. That was an easy fix though after the replacement bolt arrived. |
|
| Conclusion: |
its ok, id recommend a 98 if you have the choice between the two |

| Review: |
I got this gun thinking that it was going to be reliable and a pretty good all around gun that I could use whenever. Instead I got a plastic gun that leaked like crazy out the expansion chamber(i think thats what its called).Once I got that fixed and went out paintballing it chopped every fourth ball I shot and when the barrel wasnt filled with paint it still didnt shoot strait.And to top it all off the bolt breaks the day before I go for the third time with it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a total beginner gun that will even make a first timmer be in anguish.If you are a beginner reading this get a different Spyder or a Piranha will be better. |
