Review:
Ok well two of my good friends/paintballerz made a mistake in my opinion.....before they researched whats out there they didnt know much about gunz....so they thought the electra looks cool and pretty ok price. so both of them bought it. for starters it doesnt go as fast as 30 bps and even if it does the rocking trigger doesnt help so much. the ACS (anti-chop-system) doesnt always stop chopping because i mean its no eyes so it does still chop. i think its a reliable gun but after my two freinds traded it back in for the ion and are much happier with the results. although this gun is an ion competitor- it doesnt equal up. the ion is considered high-end and the electra is still low-end......this is a great gun for begginning players or rick newbs its just that spyders have the reputation that says MAKE FUN OF ME CUZ IM A SPYDER......if u have more than a years experience dont waste your time but if ur just begging then go for it although i think ions are cheaper and better
Conclusion:
If you are a rick newb or a beggining player this is a good gun but try and get the ion
if you have already had more than one year experience in PBing, dont waste your time
spyder pilot acs, with cp classic black barrel, and evolution 3 hopper
Recommended Upgrades:
New Barrel
Bolt
Strengths:
The gun could shoot fast.
Weaknesses:
Accuracy
ACS is horrible
Loud
Review:
The gun is overall kinda pathetic except for the rocking trigger.. Other than the trigger you cant hit anything with it and if you do its because of pure luck. The pressure on it tends to ramp up on it making the gun even more unaccurate than it already was. Other than the fact that it shoots fast this gun also chops more than any other ACS gun ive seen. If it couldnt shoot so fast i would never play with one because it means certain doom for the player.
Conclusion:
I would not touch this gun, unless it had upgrades because it isnt accurate what so ever.

Review:
WOW here i am typing about my first gun. The only reson i am doing this is because the only way to get rid of anoying spyder NOOBS is to try and get them to get a half decent gun......
ROF- ok the gun is fast. speed does not matter as much a spyder describs it as. spyder ALLWAYS says "oh look at this gun it does 30 BPS" when they only do like 15-20. if only noobs could walk that fats without a illegal trigger. the reson why noobs buy their guns is because they think that spyders are the best cuz they can so "30BPS" (only about 15 tho)
Shots per tank- sucks. uses WAY to much gas.
rocking trigger- illegal in every tourney i have ever seen (EVEN BIG GAMES) made out of plastic. to sensitive. the other fireing mods on it are terrible. (nobody want Auto, 3, and 6 burst
barrel- chops paint EVERY OTHER SHOT so unacurate,
feedneck- suprisingly spyder didnt give me a peice of plastice to put on my gun. AHA HAHAH AH
Other- body is way to heavy
"ACS"- B.S it chopped half a case of paint the one day i used it before it broke
Conclusion:
If you have this gun and like it you are: A Noob how thinks they are good
:sum 4 year old that saved their money for 9 years
if you start talking $hit to me cuz i made fun of ur $hitty gun then that just prooves that you are one of the spyder noobs at the feild that people with half desent gun make fun of and say $hit about them. and the funny thing is, the stupid spyder noobs think they are Fkn Ollie Lang

Review:
Ok, first of all the label says 30bps.........................MY @$$! this gun couldnt get more than 10! The "awsome" rocking trigger is made of plastic, and isn't even walkable. the semi mode can cap maby 11bps, the full auto mode can get about 9; and no1 even uses the burst modes so im not even going to go over those. This gun chops paint like you wouldn't believe, and you have to recock the bolt about every 5 balls that you shoot out!. This gun and the enitre VS series was a very big dissapointment (to me anyway) from Kingman Spyder.
Conclusion:
I would not reccomend this product because of all the problems that it has. I would reccomend geting a real gun like an Ion or a PMR
