Hi all. This is my gun set- up:

Piranha e-force SRT
Halo TSA Backmen LED
Bullet drop
72/3000 psi tank

My dumb ass paintball store owner said i dont need a new barrel for m,y gun. I want a DYE Ultralite.Should i get 1 or stay with stock. Also, is getting a superfly bolt a good idea? help!!!

**Error** · February 1st, 08:46 PM

yes a new barrel would be a nice upgrade. but remember accuracy is mostly paint to barrel match.

**theunforgiven** · February 1st, 09:14 PM

a new barrel would be excellent.

stay 12-14" tho, anything smaller or larger WILL effect accuracy.

16" is debatable.

**stickman436** · February 1st, 09:16 PM

dont upgrade anything other than barrel. save up and then get a BKO or somethin

**PaintBallBob** · February 1st, 09:32 PM

i would buy a new barrel, but not an UL. Because youll eventually have to upgrade, you should get a J&J Ceramic Barrel(12" or 14", $35) since you can resell for the same price you can buy it. After that, get a new marker. You might wanna just skip the barrel anyway if your close to getting a new marker now.

So i should get a J&J Ceramic, maybe a 12-14", and no new bolt? i was actually changing my mind to a Boss bolt. Is that a good enough set up?(for now)

**stickman436** · February 2nd, 04:07 PM

It will be good enough for now and then start savin your money for a whole new gun.

**Paintball3691** · February 2nd, 04:22 PM

Ok. Can someone tell me how much these individual items uaually are? they are what
im getting soon:

J&J Ceramic
DYE C4 Jersey
DYE Hybrid pants
DYE C4 Gloves
DYE C4 Attack pack
DYE Lock lids
DYE ATC Cleats(not hydrogel)

**spydershutter68** · February 2nd, 04:23 PM

I would get the acs bolt.

**bobide** · February 2nd, 04:43 PM

ceramic $30-40
c4 jersey- $50-60
c4 gloves- $20
hybrid pants- $50-60
lock lids- $20 for 6
attack pack- $45, but that may change on what size. Expect $5 increments for each extra pod it'll hold.
cleats- I have no clue, Um $35?

Don't buy ACS bolt. Bolts are worthless on a spyder unless u want lp, which u can mod for urself. Save some extra money and buy a halo, there all ur chops are gone.

**Paintball3691** · February 2nd, 05:09 PM

so wut. should i get a new bolt?

**Twistedpain** · February 2nd, 05:11 PM

I have used 3 different types of bolts and I havn't really seen any change in performance.

**bobide** · February 2nd, 06:10 PM

the only reason for a bolt is to get derlin so u have no scrathing. Which can be stopped by occasional oiling anyway.

doesn't it weigh less too?

**bobide** · February 2nd, 06:23 PM

aw come on. Its like a few grams lighter at most. There is no real way to cut weight w/ this level of guns. I guess it may be lighter, but throw in like 10 more paintballs and ur back to the standard weight.

Actually....u made me think. Ok, the only OTHER (that i can think of now) reason is w/ its lighter mass, u can use a lighter spring which=less kick=more accuracy.

**Jase** · February 2nd, 06:56 PM

Definatley a new bolt. you may not need a barrel though. I have my stock one still on my pirahna and it's just fine. It's all about paint to barrel match. So if you have a stock barrel with a good match, you'll be fine.

**PaintBallBob** · February 2nd, 07:53 PM

if you buy anything else get a barrel. As twisted pain said bolts dont make that much of a difference. They also wont add anything significant to your resale. Dont buy one.

Just save for a new marker.

J&J Ceramic---------$35
DYE C4 Jersey-------$40
DYE Hybrid pants-----2k3 is $50, 2k4/5 is $70
DYE C4 Gloves--------$30
DYE C4 Attack pack---$45
DYE Lock lids----------$4 each, $18 for a 6 pack
DYE ATC Cleats(not hydrogel)---wow, they are $20

i have a few lock lids, they are the best pods on the market. Look into empire jerseys as well since they are a little more baggy.

**Paintball3691** · February 3rd, 05:10 PM

Wut size J&J should i get?

**Twistedpain** · February 3rd, 05:12 PM

14 inche

**oCRAZYSPRAYERo** · February 3rd, 09:14 PM

14-12 inch J&H, 16 maybe if ur planning on strictly playing back
