Ya, definitely Angels, but SINCE ITS NOT UP THERE, I put the second most used, Cockers. 3rd..maybe Bushys/Defiants or Automags?

I see bushys and cockers the most, angels are right after that though. Some of the newer markers like the matrix and impulses have not really taken ahold of the tourney scene yet.

and would it compete with the best,,would it break if i go electro,,what else do i need to make the spyder perform, well,,i have so far a 12 volt revy,,but to low pressure it more,,,it will cost alot of money,,i should just stick with buying an electro,,

With an ELCD probably about 13BPS.

IMHO it would be better to go Electro than keep upgrading your spyder. The Prob with ELCDs, Hyperframes, and some Electros is that you are not allowed to use Select Fire guns in most Tournaments. :(

i think i'll buy an elcd for my spyder for now...i will have enough anyway for a true electro after a few months(hoping),,i have two spyders so i could put my old trigger frame from the xtra to my 2 in 1 java,,that way i am really not wasting my parts and will be souping up two guns at the same time,,sound cool,,,will my gun show a big improvement with the elcd,,i will pay 319$ canadian for it so i hope so,,,does my plan sound right or would you just go electro right away,,oh ya another thing if i go electro(buy another gun) i would have to wait awhile so i am unpatient and want something right now,,,

Patience is a virtue!!! Save up and get an Electro. You will be happier.

shi* jester i knew youd be saying that(lol),,,i will try to wait,,,,,,what do i do with these two guns,,,if i sell them it wouldn't be worth it caus i just got them,,,

JesterDude15

Find out what price you want to sell them for and wait untill you need XXX amount of $$$s to buy it and then sell one.

At the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, what's a Timmy? Is it a Tribal?

Timmy's an abbreviation for Bob Long Intimidator. Its and electro-pneumatic marker alot like a bushmaster but with a few perks.

I agree that angels are the dominant marker in the tournament world. It used to be cockers and mags, but they are becoming a thing of the past.

I had the same question about timmys not to long ago to. I think the tracer S/A is a d@mn good gun for the price to.

hey ummmmm. what kind of cockers are used?

Ghetto_Cocker78

All kinds of cockers are used from things like teh free flow to ones people put together themselves not evreything is based on the gun though i do like high rate of fire. Angels are the most common that i see then cockers followed by e-mags i dont really ever see the 68 around here i think that the f5 cocker from what i hear will be good but i would like to more than just the reviews ont ehis web page.
More than anything before you go kick some *** find a gun that you like dont buy an emag just because it has a high rate of fire compared to a cocker see if you like the cocker more.

http://www.pbstar.com did a review. I've seen it in videos. Looks and performs great. Members of pro team "Jacksonville (Jax) Warriors" use it and they do well. That PTP Micro E-mag is currently used by Steve Davidson (one of PGI's top 100 players of all time).

Pro team/Micro is the same thing (I think). It's a sweet gun with VERY good customer service. check out AGD's website http://www.airgun.com as well as http://www.automags.org for info. Jessie, you're aware they cost a FRIG load?? $1550 just for powerfeed! $1600 for the Pro-team emag.(Canadian money guys). I'd rather get a Bushmaster/Defiant and customize it or get a timmy. I used a guys shocker in BC and thought it was really good, but it's too big for me and the stock barrel is 16".
I know a site where you can get Defiants for $750, that's a good price on a good gun. All you would need after that is an HPA tank, hoses and crap and maybe a new barrel.

The e-mag is the finest electro ive ever played with (Other than a CObra Angel) Goes from electro to RT with the flip of a switch. If you get it, you wont be disapointed.
