scopes and sights

I have a spyder imagine and i need some suggestions for a scope or sight.
I am not familiar with what scopes are out there or what ones will fit on my gun.

any input on this subject would be appreciated

do not get a scope or a sight. paintballs are not accurate enough to see a reason to use one

eh JH is pretty much right - you can set a scope to work for about 15 yards most, but by the time you shoot it you're probably going to already be hit...

that, and lazers are useless during the day...

that and if the scope gets hit it'll break and some scopes can cost upwards of $200, so you can end up spending more than the cost of your marker on a single scope just to have it broken...

for a rifle it's great, for paintball i would suggest strongly against it...

i'm sorry i couldn't be more help on types of scopes and what not though - maybe you can google it and see more about them...

good luck buddy - and if you decide to use a scope you might want to cover the front with plexi glass and some sort of seal... have fun!

Don't get a scope. Especially on the spyder Imagine. It is a vertical feed if I am not mistaken, and so your scope would be going right into your hopper anyways.
