Review:
Well i just bought this gun on a sale online for 149.99 (100$'s off ) and i really am amazed with it, its accurate, light, easy to use, fun. I have tried using it lefty and righty and both work perfect for me, ( i dont know why people complain about this) it saves gas with 70 - 80 shots per 12g co2. its easy to strip and clean, paint is fairly cheap. this is by far better than a tiberius 8.1 and tpx. it seems more compact than a tippmann or tiberius, and looks much better .
Conclusion:
I would recommend this pistol for any person looking for a sidearm to your rifle .
Manufacturer exclusive paint, cannot be shot left-handed
Review:
I've been looking around for a while for a pstol, and couldn't decide between the tpx/tiberius and this. I went with the spyder for its compact size, and air efficiency. Right out of the package, it is impressive. It has a good feel, a nice heft to it and is very comfortable.The box itself is very well organized, and there is an abundance of extra parts in a little pouch in case you need them. Airing it up is a breeze, just insert cartridge and turn the lever. The paint loads nicely, buy if you're a clumsy guy like me with huge fingers, it will take a little practice. If you go hollywood and slam the magazine into the grip, expect paint to fall out of the barrel.If you are not left handed, this is a breeze to shoot. If you are left handed, watch out for the mag release, as you will probably hit the button and drop the clip.Update: What I am doing to shoot this left-handed is to fire the trigger with my middle finger, using the natural spread of my fingers to go AROUND the mag release. I seem to have a problem with chopping, but I don't have a chronograph so it may be a velocity problemUPDATE: The chopping problem seemed to be in the paint, as soon as I opened the extra paint I ordered the problem vanished-WHEW!.The range and accuracy of this pistol is IMPRESSIVE. I shot off a clip, and at 25-30 yards it was a tight grouping, I didnt expect this! it is very quiet, and air efficient which is nice. As I learn more about this marker, I will update this review.
Conclusion:
As of right now, yes I would recommend this product, as it seems very well thought out.I'm giving it only 8/10, as it is too early to tell. But other than my chopping problem, I find no fault with it UPDATE: I am changing my rating to 9/10, as my chopping problem was the paint, not the pistol. I would give it a 10/10 if it weren't for the magazine release button being where it is
Rating:
8 out of 10

Review:
When i first got the marker i was impressed with it right out of the box, everything was so organized and they give you your first 100 rounds (didn't last long). I took it to the field a few day later and was amazed on how quiet it was and how straight the shot when. When you fire the T8 everybody knows it was you doing it. The pistol is very well built and is extremely easy to strip down and clean if anything does go wrong which it wont
All in All its an awesome pistol and I recommend it to anybody who is looking for a pistol
