i remember when the stingray first came out. We thought is was awesome. just because it was a semi and it wasnt as expensive as a mag or a cocker. I ve never shot one.

Spyder One, got one when they first came out. Basically a cross between a regular Spyder and a compact. Used it up until about 6 months ago. That thing shot like all get out with all the extra stuff I put onto it.

It had a 45 grip and bottom line and a 7oz. tank

awesome gun... I took a verticle pump from a shotgun and two pieces from a hardware store and made a custom pump. My favorite was when someone would come up after the game and say "Hey! Dont you know it is pumps only today" :)

Mine was a spyder TL plus. about a year and a half ago. I never had a job, so i never had the money, to buy, just rent. Then, when we laid out our summer plans, it was cheaper to buy a spyder than rent a gun every weekend. So I bought one, and then used it a lot. Then sold it. He he he. Mag here I come.
