A few Questions from a newbee

[bHawk]

Hey, i just bought a new Spyder Victor for a cheap price. And now i have some questions.

1) The kit i bought the gun with came with a 12oz CO2 tank so i was wondering, how many shots is that good for (on average I guess).

2) Other than the needed new barrel (i already ordered a terminator 14") and an expansion chamber, what other upgrades do i need to make this a good gun for playing in the woods.

3) Do anti fog sprays really work? Its not so much a question for me since the kit also came with a vforce amor mask, but my friends who use rental equipment, have really bad problem with fog in their mask.

Any and all (usefull) answers are much appreciated! thanx!

1. 800 to 900

2. A revy hopper is real nice. Cuts down chops.

3. Yes. But spitting in them (diver trick) is free.

I wouldn't recommend a recommend a revvy though. The quality has gone down hill. Get a reloader or ricochet ak for the same price and much better quality.

In my experience-

1-600-900, somewhere in that range, it kinda varies

2-Agitated hopper, empire reloader, screw X chamber, get your 12oz anti siphoned, a lot cheaper

3-never used them, I don't really get fogged up for some reason, go with these guys, or ask dudes as your shop/field

Thanx guys, i just have another question: Where do i buy one of those anti siphon things for my tank and how do i install it? I figure ill just leave the x-chamb on as a fore grip if anything.
I dont think ill be getting an agitated reloader just yet, though i would love to have a ricochet 2k. I dont think i need it though since my gun is just semi auto. Maybe ill get one in a year when i upgrade my gun to an electric trigger (i can upgrade my trigger on the victor, right?)

well, itll get you about 600-800 shots

nothing really except for a nice hopper

Almost all anti-fog sprays work on any mask

Trust me, you dont need an anti-siphon...
I dont think you need the 2k, when you can get a hopper that loads as fast, has a window to look in instead of a ball counter, and for a lower price(Rico AK)
Yeah you can get an electric frame.

anti siphon is not that necessary unless you use a regulator, (you don't)

[Jesus_Freak]

GET A REGULATOR, an expension chamber is a waste of money, get a regulator.

Get an anti siphon tube, they do practically what an expansion chamber does.

12oz could never get 800 shots I've got a 16 and I can barely get 800, not tryign to say i know everything but it just seems to me that 800 is kinda high, I'd have to say more on average it'd get 500-700. Also it might be that i just use too much co2 somehow

[chibissj]

take that back a 12oz could probably get 800 somehow, but i thin my 16 oz gets 800-1000 but that's just a guess it seems that my tank is leaking really bad lately.

Maybe ill get one in a year when i upgrade my gun to an electric trigger (i can upgrade my trigger on the victor, right?) you sure can but the only reasons you really need to would be for a lighter,shorter trigger pull & diff firing modes, which are useless on most fields (they don't allow anything but semi-auto)
