spyder vs2, hands down. but you'll need a high pressure air tank as they dont' like co2 much at all.

If you can't afford HPA, then check for the spyder VS1. Shoot great for the price, have eyes and run Co2 perfectly.

Check in my sig for my spyder VS1 review.

it happens to every blowback marker at some time or another. when it does, just relube it and it should solve the problem. If not, increase your regulator pressure.

You can't buy a speedball setup with "200$ or less." Sorry.

No reason you can't(well except mask).

Vs1, a cheap tank and a VL force is going to come out right at 200$ or so...I'm sorry but if you can't keep up on a recball field with that, you need to learn a little better fundamentals(I'm 22 years old and fat and I could do it)

I'm sorry but unless he plays with other noobs that have speedball setups that consist of spyders and steel tanks then no, he can't keep up.

It's different when you know how to play, then play with a crappy setup, but if you learn on a crappy setup you get frustrated and quit.

The VS1 is a long way(trigger wise) from what the pilot or any other e-spyder's are. They are walkable from the box, and shoot very well. Aside from more kick, the gun shoots just as well as anything else in the sub-300$ price range. Tell me whats wrong with that...

i bought my vs2 and a 48/3k tank for $175 of ebay together then got a vl eye force for $50 or if you doent have that kind of cash i think you should get the vs1 which would work almost as well but you could use c02 as weever said

VS2. Trigger is just as nice as an ion, much simpler maintenance, better value PLUS it's cheaper.


I wouldn't shoot an ion if smart parts offered me a sponsorship......I would have no problem playing on a regular basis with a spyder.....
