why is nobody saying......


SP8????? Its an Mill Sim with Electronics. Dont know what they get used for but its a look worth.

My real question is why are there a buncha posts on this thread without anyone actually having any MR3 experiences? Sheesh.

good point -- I know from experience thinwall aluminum semi markers + steel screws = relatively short life span (wear and tear). I loved my F1 while it lived.. Generally speaking, boosting rate of fire on a thinwall aluminum body will simply amplify the rate of wear and tear. Afterall, why do you think AutoMags, PMI-3s, and OldSchool Autocockers used more than a bit of metal to manage the action..? I see plenty of decade+ markers still around in use - but just try and find an F1, F2 on ebay..

Spyders are great entry level markers - and a great value - but just keep in mind scenario ball is TOUGH on everything... and we dont stop for rain, mud, swamps, hurricanes or tornadoes. In scenario ball, "durable" is a very, very good thing.

Spyders are great entry level markers

Thats all u need to know right there he said it all

oh well. i still love my MR-2. haven't had any problems after playing with it in 2 scenarios and all the rain, mud, dirt, creeks.

my setup is better than yours......i hope.....

my mr-2 has problems from the beg but i still use it it is a tough gun but my a-5 still shoots better thats just my 2 cents though

for your first ever paintball marker a spyder will serve you well, I would never go from an A5 to a spyder though. reduced performance and quality. just my $0.02
