Paintball Experience: 2 years Similar Products Used: Spyder Flash Stock Bolt Spyder Imagine Stock Bolt Marker Setup: Kingman Spyder Flash LCD DYE Boomstick BanditBolts Rear Cocking Bolt ACI Bulldog Hiogh pressure N2 Strengths: Very Light! Outstanding craftsmanship, these bolts must be hand machined because of the Nylon/Plastic material that is used. Does not swell like delron. When compared to an Impulse Delron bolt, which is small in size, the banditbolt was still lighter! To all Spyder/Kingman buyers! If you want your gun to last more than a year get this bolt! The stock Kingman bolt starts showing signs of wear and scratching the first time you use it! Call Kingman up yourselves and ask them, they will tell you that the scratching is common and no big deal. I disagree completely, any type of scratching or scuffing inside the bore will cause the bolt to slow down thus reducing your rate of fire and causing you to increase spring pressure just to maintain paintball velocity. Plus it makes the bolt look like heck along with the inside of the breach. I replaced my Spyder flash bolt with a bandit bolt and neither the breach nor the bandit bolt has shown one bit of wear on it after at least 12,000 rounds. I shot 1200 rounds with the stock bolt and it was already showing major signs of wear! This material and bolt is great! Customer service with www.banditbolts.com could not be better. I e-mailed them with a question about possibly making a bolt for the Spyder Imagine and the owner called me up personally @ home that very same day. I could not be happier with the product or sales support, which can be hard to find these days. Weaknesses: Not a darn thing! You must get this bolt if you own any Kingman or marker for that matter! If they don't make a bolt for your gun e-mail them and have them make one for you! Conclusion: Absolutely the best Bolt out there in my opinion for Kingman guns. If the quality is the same for the other bolts they make (I would say it probably is) then I say go for it., You can't go wrong with www.banditbolts.com Rating: 10 out of 10
