Review:
This gun is great. It looks nice with the milling. It is affordable, I got mine for $110 at the local paintball shop. You can take the gun right out the box and play. It is very reliable.
If you are just getting into paintball this is the gun to get. It hasn't chopped any of my paintballs and i've shot 2000+. This is just is just perfect for newbies and even for intermediate players.
Conclusion:
Good entry level marker that is affordable.

10 out of 10

Review:
Ok here's an affordable marker you can get new in the box that doesnt require anything but a desire to play.
I put 1000 rds through it in 5 hrs of heavy play and never chopped a ball, heck I never even had to re-cock. All that on one 12 oz co2.
You cannot beat this marker for the price, ease of use, & accuracy. If your new and you don't want to waste money you can't go wrong on the NEW 2004 Kingman Spyder TLX.
Plus Kingman has an awesome support team and website. I always get a human when I call!
The marker cost me 99$ New on Ebay , It's MFSRP is $139 -- I bought this because I play woodball. I wanted an easy to use dependable marker without any guages to break or elctronics to fry. If we are not falling off the log bridge in the river then your tossing your marker up a steep bank so you can climb up. This product delivered in that environment with no problems.
