Hi, I need YOUR help.
I am currently shooting a Spyder Pilot with some upgrade that arent a biggie (check sig). I play about once a month with friends. Anyways straight to the point, Should I Upgrade My Spyder (Board, Low Press, Bolt and all that stuff) OR buy like maybe BKO, Impulse ... (anything under $500) ???? why?
Thanks for your help

Since you don't play much and seem to not really want to get into the tourney scene, you could keep your Spyder and buy more upgrades like you said and have a very reliable marker. But if there's a chance you might want to start taking paintball more seriously you should look on the Trading Forums for a used Matrix that's in your price range. It might be hard to find one under $500 though, so you could try to find a used Imp with a lot of upgrades instead.

Try to get a hold of some electro that would be in your price raange and shoot it...you'll ultimately have to decide if you want to upgrade a blowback or move up to something else.
Keep the spyder as a backup if you do decide to go with something else.

I did some thinking today in my classes and here
To upgrade my gun itll be around $300, but to buy a new gun itll be around $500-600 which includes a Halo B. I dont know how much i could sell my spyder for. How much do you think my spyder could sell (roughly), been used around 1500-1800 rounds of pb. Will come with Co2 instead of HPA

there is a spyder appraisal thread in the kingman forums. Sell ur gun. Buy a BKO and out a empire reloader b and some hpa on it.

Get a B2K4 or Impulse. If you don't mind used look for an older timmy or Matrix.

id do your best to spend as much money on field admitions and paint as possoible. yes a gear upgrade is nice, but experince on the field will go a much longer way. once you feel you have outgrown your marker as a player, then use some extra cash to upgrade to a better marker. so essentially what im saying, save your pennies, but dont let the saving get in the way of actually playing. playing 6 times and wainting an extra few months to get a new marker may just be worth it.
