no this is a unbised and based on a true study
1st syders use cheaper metalt resulting in more break downs and more reasons people throw spyders away
parts are in ported from a manufacturing company somwhere in asia less qulity more flaws and more breakdowns and more replacement parts spyders start to leak usally 1 to 2 months after regular use

Lets see....out of all these 'facts' you have posted....each and every one is wrong!

1)Spyders use the same metal as other markers, except for tippmann who seem to use a different type of aluminium. I do believe it is 6061 or 7071 grade aluminium.
2)All the parts are almost all built in france and USA.
3)They do not start to leak after 2 monthes unless you DO NOT take care of your gun and maintain it....you know them o-ring things....you actually have to oil them!! I mean, whats with kingman making parts that the user has to take care of....sheesh...:rolleyes:
4)Learn the FACTS...

So that pretty much sums it up...

chico, read up on these things before u say stuff like that,

what u said is all wrong, cos movemaster has a spyder, and its 1 of the first spyders[spyder classic] and really old, but it dont leak, it is solid, an ugly thing, but it does the job.

Spyders are tough & reliable, & reasonably easy to maintain. This is why lots of sites use them as rental markers.
As a starter marker there are a few around (e.g. the Tippman, Inferno etc), each have their good & bad points & a basic Spyder is as good as any. You do get better upgrade options with them however.
A spyder will get to to the lowest levels of tourney, enough to have a bity of fun, but won't help you to kick a$$. If you're getting a marker for rec ball & maybe dabbling with a couple of tournaments then the Spyder should do fine; if you're thinking of doing a bit more then have a look as buying something a bit better second hand.
