mc1 Tuesday, July 12th, 2005 The accuracy of this review is disputed. Please see discussion on the comments page. Period of Product Use: Less than a month 83 of 98 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: Spyder Victor II Viewloader Triad Marker Setup: Spyder Sonix '05 12 inch Teardrop barrel (black) 200 round hopper 12 0z. CO2 tank Recommended Upgrades: New barrel Maybee an electronic hopper Strengths: Looks great Price Reliable Weaknesses: Nothing worth talking about. Review: I bought this gun about 2 weeks ago and have been out to play twice with it. I had been using the VL Triad players kit which I payed $70 for on a special at Wal-Mart with good results, but I did want a better gun. The first time I went out to play with the gun it was a cloudy 73 degree day that was dry despite the clouds. The gun performed very well, but lacked accuracy and chopped a little more than I wanted because I was playing with the stock barrel, so that night I whent to the local paintball store and bought a 12 inch Teardrop barrel and put the thing on right away. 9 days later, I went to play again and both the accuracy, and chopping problem had been fixed by the barrel and now the thing is almost perfect. It chops about 1/100 balls and I hit a guy who was about 70 yards away dead on. CO2 does not leak at all and the gun has not locked up once thus far. You have done it again Kingman. Conclusion: This is a good marker for the price and I would highly recommend this marker to anyone who wants thier own equipment. I liked this gun a lot more than my friends Victor II and my old Triad and all I can say is, get this gun.

Jackal13 Monday, April 24th, 2006 Period of Product Use: 6 months 54 of 56 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: VL Triad, AMC Commando 2, JT Tac-5 Recon, Tippman 98 Marker Setup: Spyder Sonix 06, SP Linear 14", 20oz. Co2, Egg hopper Recommended Upgrades: Grab yourself a new barrel (preferably 14" and either J&J or Smart Parts). If you have the extra cash go ahead and buy a new trigger and a drop forward kit. Strengths: Does not chop. Quiet. Superior accuracy. Awesome. Weaknesses: New barrel even though the stock is fine. Review: This gun does not chop anything. I have shot some of the worst paint imaginable. You could put anything in this gun and you will not have any problems at all. Also this gun is one of the quietest that I have heard. And nothing measures up to it in accuracy as far as a stock gun and barrel. I have not had any problems with this gun. Only thing that I can say is bad is that the barrel is not that great. But a 30 dollar barrel will do the trick. The only other upgrade other than that is a drop forward kit. But all guns need one of those am I not correct. Conclusion: No chops. Quiet. Accurate. What more could you want from a cheaply priced gun. This is good with no upgrades but could be made into a great gun for not that much more.

Even with all the upgrades it's a good price. I highly recommend this paintball gun to beginners because it's a simple cheap gun. But after you start knowing your way around paintball guns you can find the upgrades that suit the way you play. If you use cheap paint through this gun it just doesn't work that well. I recommend PMI premium Paintballs. They are a little harder then cheap paintballs so they don't dent as easily which makes them much more accurate. I'll post my picture when I have all the upgrades I want on my gun(who knows when that's going to be). Conclusion: I would definitely get this Paintball gun Rating: 10 out of 10 Last edited on Saturday, June 24th, 2006 at 8:47 pm PST I found this review   4 Comments - Add Comment

Paintball Experience: 3 months Similar Products Used: Victor 2 Marker Setup: Kingman Spyder Sonix (Black With Red Highlights) E-Frame 14' Freak 9oz co2 Tank 12oz co2 Tank Gravitry Drop Hopper Recommended Upgrades: Not Really Anything But You Can Buy A Barrel Strengths: All Round Weaknesses: None Review: I just bought this gun and it is amazing. I has a super light trigger pull and and is very nice to hold. It has a very good weight distribution and is very attractive. I got this at a local paintball store and it was 109.95. A very good price for an even better gun. It shoots very straight, even with a stock barrel. Mine is mostly black with red highlights. A very nie looking gun that lives up to its look in preformance. Conclusion: Buy this gun. Rating: 10 out of 10 Last edited on Thursday, September 29th, 2005 at 2:36 pm PST I found this review   13 Comments - Add Comment

Cobraen Friday, September 23rd, 2005 Period of Product Use: Less than a month 32 of 36 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 2 years Similar Products Used: Spyder TL-x Marker Setup: Spyder Sonix`05 20oz Co2 32Degrees terminator barrel 16" Recommended Upgrades: New barrel. Terminator 16", or Apex! Strengths: -Quality -Easy acces to spare parts/upgrades :) Weaknesses: Nothing worth mentioning. Review: This is actually a great marker! It`s that simple to describe! The only thing you really need to upgrade is the barrel. . . I Use a 32D. 16" Terminator, and i can hit 8/10 shots, on a soda can from 27feet away.(Crappy English, i know...) Really a great marker for the cash. . . . And why buy an Electra when all you need is a barrel, a Electric hopper, and a E- trigger frame ?(+the sonix) :P and by the way, i use the Swisscaps "AmmoBOX" Paint and havent had a single break !!! Conclusion: This thing is Wicked! Buy NOW! Rating: 10 out of 10 I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

Somm-1 Wednesday, May 31st, 2006 Period of Product Use: 6 months 22 of 22 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: VL Triad, Commando 2, Tac-5 Recon, Tippman 98 C Marker Setup: -Spyder Sonix 06' -SP Linear 14" -CO2 -Egg Recommended Upgrades: -Barrel -Electro trigger frame -Drop forward (personal preference) Strengths: -Accuracy -Quiet -Light -Trigger pull -Doesn't chop paint -Looks -Upgradeable -Uses little air Weaknesses: -None whatsoever Review: This gun is awesome. It is accurate with or without an better barrel. Out of the over 10k paintball I have put through it, I have only chopped two, and I put some of the worst paint money can buy through this gun. The Sonix is also really quiet compared to other guns I have tried, especially with a good barrel. I haven't had a single problem with this gun. Conclusion: This gun is accurate, quiet, doesn't chop, and is lightweight besides. It is good stock, but can be made great for minimal $$$.

Paintball Experience: 2 years Similar Products Used: All Spyders Piranhas Shockers Timmys Evil Guns Diablo Guns Tippmans Lots More Marker Setup: Evil Pimp Silver w/7.0 ramping board,Dye Ultralite,Halo B w/victory board and shocktech aluminum drive cone,shocktech dual ball detents,shocktech clamping feedneck,phat flame drop forward,new designz on/off, HPA 91ci /4500 psi tank Recommended Upgrades: (Not all of these are a must, only if u have the money for it) New Barrel Electric Trigger Frame New Desingz Bullet Volumizer Electro Hopper Drop Forward Better Spring Dye Stickies New Feedneck ACS Bolt, or Shocktech Super Fly Bolt maybe a new expansion chamber Strengths: Cheap 90$ Good Easy to repair Weaknesses: None Review: My friend Austin has this gun, i dont even have it, but i pretty much tell him what upgrades to get cause hes pretty new to the game and just got this gun a few weeks ago. From my point of view it is prolly one of the best looking spyders there is.(all of the upgrades i am about to list are NOT a must, only if u have a money for it) Defenitly need a new barrel. could use a new expansion chamber, cause if u wanna get the ESP frame (electric), you might chop a few if u are using co2, but the ACS bolt will help a little if u dont want the expansion chamber. or you could just get the bullet volumizer, and make your gun look cooler and hold a lil more air(kinda like a mini expanison chamber.)dye stickies grips cause they feel good and look cool, new feedneck if u want your hopper to hold better and look better on ur gun. drop forward to balance out the weight. a better spring for a little bit higher velocity, my friend needed one cause he kept chronoing at around 220 with stock spring with velocity turned all the way up for some reason. electronic hopper if u get the E-Frame.You could get a T-Board w/anti-chopping eyes if u want. Right now my friend has a........ -Spyder Sonix 90$ -"14 PMI Razzor Barrel 30$ -Lapco Clamping Feedneck 25$ -Shcoktech Striking Spring 2$ -ACS Bolt 30$ He is still planning on getting the spyder bullet volumizer 20$, and electric hopper(Halo TSA, 50$) a drop forward 30$, and Dye Sticky 3 grips (for ESP Frames) 23$. If you get this gun it has SOO many possibilities. this is a good gun if u upgrade it, it looks sweet too. and i know what im talking about cause i've gone thorugh lots of differnet guns. Conclusion: Great beginner gun, lots of upgrades possible too Rating: 10 out of 10 Last edited on Sunday, September 11th, 2005 at 6:15 pm PST I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

3ad3oy Friday, July 29th, 2005 The accuracy of this review is disputed. Please see discussion on the comments page. Period of Product Use: Less than a month 10 of 56 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: Less than a month Similar Products Used: it is similar to the spyder extra Marker Setup: Spyder Xtra Stock Recommended Upgrades: Smart Parts Teardrop Barrel Zip Kit or The One Kit N2 Tank Delrin Bolt Strengths: Cheap Small/Light Weaknesses: Short Barrel Loud Review: Before we start, I haven't shot any balls through it YET. I've dry fired. Ok this gun is pretty cheap, $90-100 online. I bought the Sonix Value Pack, the mask, is straight up CRAP. The foam fell off the second day of use! The tank, 12oz isn't that bad i guess, basic tank... it gets the job done. I dry fired the gun on Co2 and it was loud, louder then my Xtra, as for accuracy i'm not sure but i'm guessing it wouldn't be too great. The gun itself is very small and light. It looks pretty good too. The internals are the same as the Xtra except it's top cocking and not rear cocking Conclusion: All in all this is a good beginner gun, at a good price!

cashpaints Thursday, November 23rd, 2006 Period of Product Use: 3 months 8 of 8 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: tippmann pirrahna Marker Setup: Spyder sonix 14" nyte stikk 20 oz co2 tank gravity fed hopper Recommended Upgrades: new barrel, stock barrel is a little loud Strengths: Cheap good looking upgradable doesnt chop Weaknesses: Needs a new barrel(not a must) Review: This marker is awesome it shots great, doesnt chop,and its light. The stock barrel is pretty good other than the fact that its loud. The trigger is very light and good. Its pretty easy to to field strip, but havent had to do it yet because i havent chopped a single ball with it yet and its gone through 2 cases of paint already. The marker does shot hot out of the box though mine was reading 390 fps when i first chrono it and i turned it down a notch at home before going out, but that doesnt really matter Conclusion: Overall this a great marker for begginners it has good looks performes great.
