| Review: |
I tested many guns, i picked the VS1 because its very cutomizeable, and even though spyders are usually terrible guns, i say this is an exception. I took it over the ion because i did not need 600$ dollars worth of upgrades and new bolts and triggers and barrels. i spent about 400$ tuning it and upgrading it, and i prefer it to the ego8 and ego 9 markers now that i upgraded it to the point where it cannot be recognized.
its a horrible marker unless you spend hundreds of dollars upgrading it.
by now, it is performing so well that i would not trade it for anything except an SL8, a LUXE, or an Autococker Karnivore. |

| Conclusion: |
If you want a super customized gun, BUY IT. if you want a super customized gun for playing the back cans, or if you want a closed bolt, get an ION, although as a snakeman, id take this marker. If you want to buy it for the cost, just get a smart parts vibe. |
