just what I was thinking.....I would end up adding to it anyway..and if I was going to spend that kind for money....I would have to get that 32* ICE cocker that keeps catching my eye....

It's not worth that price. An EM1 costs about $500 and it's electronic.

it is defenitely not worth the money. I would get the cocker 2k ahead of that gun and upgrade, if you don't like cockers, then get a spyder and upgrade to make it low pressure and you can search for the prices of those products which may be cheaper

$550 is too much for any entry-level blowback model... I agree with the other posts, get a BM2K, you can find them online for $430

550 for that kind of setup isnt worth it. If u really want a tricked out spyder, do the setup i have, ti cost just iunder 600, but i started with a spyder. U could start off with the java compact, so u get the ool ana job, and then add the reg, bottemline barrel, etc, without loosing the 120 buck i payed for the shutter, and ened up taking off half of the parts. But if u want to spend 550 bucks on a new gun, go full auto, i would.

I'm not thinking of getting it..just thought it was interesting that they wanted so much for what they give you...but if you can't or don't want to do it yourself...I guess it is a kinda good deal...just wanted peoples thoughts....is all...


BTW: too late on the shutter...I did the same thing...here is my set up...so far...still working on it..

LP Shutter,32*MagnaValve,32* spring kit
Shocktech delrin bolt,Drilled ASA,
Hogue grips.Custom Trigger Job
Crossfire 68/3000 N2
(genX,DZ2,Macro,Lapco cup seal..on it's way)

It has an ACI six stage Exp. chamber on it, a Dye 16. boomstick and a micro line setup, replacing the stock Macro line on it. Its the blue shutter with a black and silver boomer on it and a black and silver ACI Exp. Chamber, also the Reg that came with it broke, so it also has a Black reg on it. It looks very nice and i'm looking to sell it for $314.95! I'm also selling with it a 9 oz. Co2 tank, a VL 200 rd. hopper, and 200 balls.

Its in VERY GOOD condition (i'm very vain about my guns).

If you could D*mn fool, i would appreciate it very much!
Thanx

what the hell is with all the spyders and 16inch boomsticks?

A damn fool
02-05-2001, 01:46 PM
They work great, and since the longer boomstick is the better, but most of us hav enough sense not buy an 18 inch barrel, thatsn why we all have 16 inch boomstick, its one of the onyl barresl people actually want them to be this long.

I'm sorry to make you ever so mad! see they only had 16 or 18 inchers! i definetly would of gotten a 14 or a 12 incher, IF THEY HAD IT!!! No duh! 14 inches is my favorite length. Don't you think i know 16 inches is too long for an already long gun! thats why (one of the reasons why) i'm selling it! it's just too d*mn long!

Heck you can get a shocker for $600. And you get AA barrel, and max flow reg. with it. Much better deal IMHO.
