spyder e99, impulse, matrix, angel, intimidator GZ and 2002
Marker Setup:
stock everything for now(i'm broke)
Recommended Upgrades:
1. definately have a drop forward preferably adjustable
2. new grips are a must the stock ones make the marker look cheap
3. new barrel (stock is decent but an all american or ultralite will make it a lot more accurate
4. new HPR reg not really needed though stock is actually pretty good
5. new LPR reg from vapor works (rock regulator)
6. evolution or halo b
Strengths:
This gun is an excellent front man gun ..it's incredibly light and fast...i mean really fast, the trigger frame on this thing offers so many different adjustments it's crazy: where the gun fires in the trigger pull, how far back the trigger goes after firing..giving you the ability to virtually eliminate any slack making the gun able to fire from blowing on it, different swing pivot points, and an adjustable spring tension...the 2003 is fairly accurate and consistent but a new barrel will change so many things...It is extremely cheap and i think offers one of the best bang for your bucks around..
Weaknesses:
-needs to be run off of compressed air, any gun should anyways
-stock barrel sucks however almost every stock barrel does
-if you don't set the regs right you will be chopping and breaking paint like crazy
-can out shoot a revvy..wait that's good
- electronics is very delicate (i have seen a more solid construction in an electronic spyder)---not performance wise just ease of damage
-lacks any frills, who needs them anyways--cause i know i don't need to know the temperature outside--
-i prefer polished finishes
Conclusion:
This is overall one of the best guns you can buy for the money --$450, but have a good time finding one in stock,,,it's light, accurate, fast, good looking, low pressure, fast, fast, fast, and has excellent customer service

quote:Originally posted by tippmann_nick27 is this better than the impulse?
In my opion yes. Im not saying yes because i own a vision impulse but i used to have a b2k3.
First the regoulator isnt good on the b2k. Well you guys say it sucks and the impulse has a grate max flow regulator. Secondly the barrel isnt the most accurate thing either. Impulse has a sp progressive barrel wich in my opion is a great stock barrel.
The only thing that the b2k beats is speed. But not when you get a 20$ magno blade trigger.

do u mean in your opinion that it isnt better?... you dont make any sense. you say the b2k is better then u go off about how it isnt...
I was wondering... what are your regs set at....?? I just baught a b2k ... and i chop like mad... i need to set my regs... and i g2 buy a superfly and freak....wuld you reccomend?? JUst tell me the pressure ... and how many turns off your lpr
i was wondering...i used to own a 04 bko and it chopped like mad. i supposed it was because i didnt have pds on it. i decided instead of getting it installed just to sell it and buy a b2k. im jsut wondering, if i dont have PDS, will i have the same chopping problems? thanks
brandon51090, just keep backing your lpr off until it doesn't chop any more. Once that's fixed im sure you'll be pleased. You've probably already fixed it cuz im replying sort of late, but just in case.
YOU ARE A BEAST!!!! Whoever wrote this review is a sweet dude! I have used this gun and it is just how he described it! BALLER1119 I used your advise for the upgrades too and I have the best gun out of all of my friends!!!! ;) thanx!
