Any suggestions on a good first upgrade?
I was thinking a larger co2 tank or dye stickies..or maybe a barrel should be first.
i can get the 20 oz tank very cheap but i could also get the dye stainless steel barrel for 100 canadian ($64 US)
the gun is the spyder xtra, 100% stock and i want suggestions on my first upgrade!
thanks

Always upgrade the barrel first. You can go for the DYE Sticky Grips afterwards and are a marked improvement over the stock ones, they really do make a difference. The larger tank is a good idea, but I'd invest in a revvy before buying a larger tank.
Upgrade the thing where you think your gun needs the most improvement.

I agree with Speed. First get the barrel upgrade, you will see the most improvement with that product. Also, the 9v is another great upgrade for your marker.

I suggest upgrading your barrel first, thats what i did, then a new bolt and an expanson chamber. Although i should have gotten a large CO2 tank before the ex-chamber. Running around with only a 9 oz. and the nearest place to fill is like 40 miles away really isnt a smart thing.

One of my friends got the Stainless for his TL Plus a few weeks after he got it. I thought it really improved the gun. He's had the barrel now for about a year and it really kicks alot of ***.
Sounds like u live in Canada, I live right on the border, in New York.

i also say barrel first, revy next,
tank i got with the gun (how cheap are you to get a 7 or 9 oz tank instead of paying a couple more dollars for a 12 or 20???
after that, i got a remote, camo, elbow, and harness
after that, i saw that it was pointless to fix up a spyder to the extreme so i got a new gun and nitro

I would reccomend looking into the Lapco barrels or the new 32* barrels are nice (execpt the stainless steel)
