mechanics of the spyders?

Aggressor02 · 09-11-2002, 06:30 PM

is there a difference in the mechanics of spyders from one model to another. EX: does the compact work diff then my aggressor (just the essentials, not counting upgrades,addons,extras). do all the mechanisms inside the guns work the same or are there diff designs of how the gun works in each model. disregard any guns with e-frames etc.
mainly talking about the TL,compact,aggressor,xtra...

yeah they all work the same (the ones you mentioned). The striker hits the valve pin, valve pin opens and lets air thru to go into the bolt, and to push the striker back.

The only spyder that operates on a different principal is the EM1.

and for the price of the Em1 you'd be better off getting an Impulse

or a used shocker.

CAPITALISM!

It's a wonderful thing. Keep in mind the Esprit does not come with a bottomline. This could easily add $20 to the price.

an e-grip alone is +- 150$

hehe, trust me, the E-Grip does not cost $150 to manufacture.... in fact, when you're dealing with a huge company like Kingman and they're doing everything like that in bulk, you're probably looking at around $20 production cost... and the spyder's body and parts are probably running them around $40 at most... I could be a bit off on these assumptions... but trust me on this... they're still making a good profit lol.

oh of course they are, that's why they are still in business!
