Do the ESP and ELCD make you spyder fully automatic like and angel would be as in you just hold the trigger ?

Is it better to turn your spyder auto and customize it (anodizing etc. ) or to just get a high-end semi or electro and customize it from there?

They do make your Spyder auto, but the marker will probably chop paint if you try to go past 11 or 12 BPS, others here say that for all the expense you might as well get an electro. Cant really give you a definate answer only because, I have a Boo-Yah trigger frame on my Spyder and it works for me, also I got it cheap, so for me it was worth it cause I saved some money and still have an auto. Your circumstances might be different and you have the cash to lay out on a full blown electro (which would probably be better), I couldnt justify it though. Also there are the wear and tear issues connected with converting your semi into auto, such as rapid bolt and sear wear (although that has yet to happen to me and I've shot about five 2000 round cases with the Boo-Yah so far), and the screws that mount the frame to the Spyder body tend to strip (happened to my rear body screw, had to substitute a bike part screw). Hope this helps...

Angels usually are not set on full auto... Unless you play outlaw and such, I don't think there's a field that allows full auto... As for customizing? If you can't throw $400 for an Impulse, or such, at one time, I say upgrade your Spyder over time. That way you can play, and still upgrade, rather than work, work, work, get an electro, and then have lost the time you could've been playing paintball... ;) Also, know that some electros should be run on nitrogen only, and you may need to invest in a tank as well...

Nope, you don't, but everybody wants to shoot faster than that. :D Well, at least a number of people...
