Review:
I first used it and i loved it, I am saving up for one currently and i perfer this over a 98 custom. It looks nice and shoots smooth and fast, the Taodao Board ( not sure how to spell it) is very sleek and easy to use. the gun right out of the box i okay accurate but if you upgrade the barrel the it shoots like a charm.

Review:
This was my first paintball gun. Several of my friends recommended I buy this gun because it is great for beginners. It is a very fast gun but it is easy to get ahead of it without an electric loader. The very few problems it has are mostly stock and new issues. The 11in stock barrel it comes with is VERY loud and has holes in the end that can get paint in and are difficult to clean. The other is that you have to get some ware and use on the gun before it works at maximum performance.
Conclusion:
Overall a GREAT gun for beginners to intermediate players.

Review:
I do a lot of both woods and field this gun holds up awesome I love it. The only thing that I have upgraded so far is the barrel but thats all choice. The gun is light and looks gear, It holds up like a dream. Also it has eyes so no choped ball and if you paintball a lot you know that a choped ball sucks cause it just leaves a huge mess in your gun and barrel. Iv seen the $600-$1200 guns. And this gun holds up just as great as the $1200 ones. For $150 this gun rock at most stores you can actually pick this gun up for $80. I say go out and buy it right now. It's the best gun Iv had!!!
Conclusion:
Get it, Cause its a awesome price and you will blow your friends away on how fast it is.

Weaknesses:
puff of gas if you use C02
Review:
Overall it is a great gun for intermediate to beginer players. its fast, cheap, and quick plus it uses all types of gas. Great on fragile paint but with c02 there is a cloud of gas(untill you've used it for awhile). I have to give it a 9 because the cloud is really annoying until the gun is "broken in".
Conclusion:
Buy it but get a good loader........Vl force works fine.......great gun and shoots fast.

Weaknesses:
range, accuracy is O.K, but not great, trigger(opinion)
Review:
The spyder pilot is a pretty good gun for beginners, its not the type of gun you would bring to a tournament. I think anyone under a year of expierence would be perfect with this gun. If you are like a pro, this gun is no good for you. Personally, i think that the trigger is the worst feature of the gun. its just a peice of scrap metal put onto a gun. My friend bought this gun a little while back, and he just hated, so he decided to sell it to me for a very low price, so i took it, and i have only used it once in a match, and all i could say was WOW, this gun isnt not that good, but its excptional for begginers. And I have never used it in another match since. I only use it for target practice, ever since I got the g3

Review:
For the spyder pilot i bought it to do a review but when i got back from the store i realised that this gun was suprisingly good.
I thought it was another cheap spyder gun with slow speed and bad accuracy but it was incredible i added my loader and went to town no chops no jams. All my friends where covered in paint i loved it. I personally like it more than the tippman 98 custom
Conclusion:
I recommend this product to you because it has amazing durability accuracy speed and good looks if you want to impress your friends with pumping out a 200round hopper in a few seconds this is the gun for you.

Review:
this gun is very reliable for beginners and intermediate players. this gun comes stock with a tadao board featuring semi-auto, ramp psp and ramp millenium. I bought this gun maybe a wekk or 2 ago and in my opinion, its waaaaay better than the vibe. vibes are pretty much a waste of money because it only goes 11bps and then u have to buy a new board wich costs about another 200$ on top of that. The pilot already come out of the box at 25 bps.
Conclusion:
this a exellent little gun for everyone, if you need a new gun GET THIS ONE!
