Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: Spyders, Tippmanns, other junk Marker Setup: 2000 red and silver splashed STO Chrome Benchmark .45 frame WDP adjustable drop forward ANS Gen X II reg Barrels: CP one piece .689 (10" and 14") and a CP two piece .685 12 volt X-Board hopper Delrin bolt P.M.I. 68/4500 Runs at 250 psi while shooting 280 f.p.s. Recommended Upgrades: Trigger Frame, Barrel, Regulator Strengths: I heard so many people say not to buy a Spyder and save for an Autococker. Boy was I stupid buying a Spyder. Since purchasing this marker I literally haven't touched my Spyder. Autocockers are know for there accuracy and I got a lesson in accuracy. My STO hauls paint like there is no tomorrow. The CP barrels shoot the paint right on top of each other. Weaknesses: It is a little expensive. These markers are high maintence. Then again, any high performance marker is high maintence. There is a cardinal rule for Autocockers that reads: "If it works don't f**k with it." I broke this rule and couldn't get the marker to cycle. There was a tech at the field and he timed it at field. You can spend too much money upgrading it. Is that really bad? I bought a red and silver splash and face a few limitations on aftermarket parts to try to get the color scheme to match. Get a black STO and you can accent it with chrome all day long. Conclusion: If you are thinking of buying a marker, save your money and buy an STO. You won't go wrong and will enjoy the accuracy that no other marker can beat. One last piece of advice is to remember the cardinal rule. Pay a gun tech to adjust/repair it. One final thought: buy an STO. You won't be disappointed! Rating: 10 out of 10
