My team all has these as back-ups, they work great, just remember that NO CO2 can be used on them, its HPA only.

Just picked one up for the spyder cup. I must say that these guns are decent, although I did change the reg and asa with a cp shorty reg and asa.

Spyder has turned out a worth-while marker in this day and age. Wow. I guess wonders will never cease.

Are you playing in the Spyder Cup. Our sponsor was all for us going but had problems with players not able to make each event. Hope you guys do well.

Out of the box, my teammates and I noticed 2 things:

The bottomline is not secure. Needs some teflon/locktite on the allen screw, or install a 2nd screw. After you do these, no longer an issue.

The guys on my team, experienced a lot of velocity spikes, they didn't like the factory mini reg and opted to ditch the grip and put their own regulator of choice for consistency.

These are really fast and I've had no ball breaks, and I really like the rocking trigger on the VS3. :shooting:

A nice affordable tourament marker. :cheers:

That's why we got ours. Guess we'll see you there.
