Got a few low end spyders around and found that its best not to adjust the trigger too close or it will repeat shoot from the kick.. almost seems automatic. Maybe that could be a good thing but without eyes it sucks...

Seen that happen, thats why god invented barrel bags. Also problems I've seen is that the pin to pull the bolt back gets loose and falls out. In the past I would go onto the field with a screw or other long piece of metal in my pocket in case I had to cock it back. All in all not a bad marker for some one just getting in the sport.

Its been that way with spyders since they first started making markers. Bolts were always undersized, so that paint shells got stuck in the bolt locking it up hard, and the bolt pins have always fallen out. Surprising to hear that they still do it. Pretty sad.

I've seen some spyders work great, but it almost always means that a lot of aftermarket parts were installed. Stock, they're the epitomy of cheap.

I didn't relize the problem went that far back. I got my last spyder 2 years ago and it still had the problem. You would think someone would correct the design flaw.

You would think, but its almost like a character of the spyder for some reason. Or a ploy to force you to buy aftermarket crap for 'em. I like the new trend towards it all being good out of the box besides the ludicrous barrel kits with all the sleeves.

Its why I've skipped even looking at Spyders at all for Brianna.
