i have been thinking of now getting a spyder pilot acs as a first gun. what will i have to do special to it . i heard you have to lube the orings (what are they)what kind of lube? and also it also said oil the bolt(what bolt) and if i get the spyder pilot acs will i chop because i dont want to have to clean my barrel alot . Sorry for all the questions i am just really confused

o-rings


just use paintball oil.. buy a cleaning kit for like 9 bucks


bolt


should look something like that

Hammer (you'll want to oil this too)



and yes, the spyder pilot ACS will chop... most lower end guns will from time to time, all you gotta make sure and do is get a motorized loader for it, and take care of it, and you shouldnt have too much of a problem...

Great pictorial teaching aid..... But with chopping, you really wont chop much, if you have a good paint to barrel match and a good loader...especially with the ACS bolt....you wont chop at all. You might be scaring this new person by just comeing out and saying...yeah ... your going to chop!!

when you get your gun, take it apart right away and explore, so when something goes wrong, you'll know what to do. You wont chop that much. you'll only chop if you have the wrong paint with the right barrel

Thats great as long as your really pay attention to what goes where...quick story out on the field a kid with a spyder couldn't get it to shoot so he asks me for help so we take it apart and find that he has put the black rubber bumper infront of the hammer instead ofon the spring so basically had to take everything, including valve out just to get that stupid bumber....so just pay attention to where everything goes

As for the chopping you might as well get used to it happening occasionally because no matter what equipment you have it will chop or break balls in the hopper or something that requires you to clean your barrel so just get used to it, its part of the sport
--if you are really worried just make sure to buy a good hopper and a marker with eyes and thats about all you can do

if you're worried about chopping b/c you dont want to clean your barrel, upgrade to a J&J Ceramic 14" barrel. That has a teflon finish in the inside, which allows for "self-cleaning" . Basically, if you chop and you get paint in the barrel, and can keep shooting and dont have to squeeqie.

dude dont worry about chopping because it comes with an ACS BOLT! aka an anti-chopping bolt. acs = anti-chop system. the only way you'll chop balls is if your hopper doesnt feed fast enough or the barrel to paintball match isnt right. if the ball is too small for the barrell then the ball will break because its bouncing around.

i know it's an acs bolt, and all, but a ball will more than likely chop at least once while you have the gun... you wont be chopping left and right unless you are doing something wrong, but yeah, if you have any problems or questions, we'd be glad to help ya
