A Review of the Kingman Spyder MR2 Paintball Marker
If you play scenario ball or woodsball at all, eventually you may prefer a paintball marker that has a little bit more realistic gun look than many of the markers available. The Kingman Spyder MR2 is an excellent choice for your first military style, electronic paintball marker. Spyders are known for their reliability and ease of use and maintenance. The MR2 is no exception, and combined with its hot looks it is a very fun marker to use for any type of scenario play. While for some the MR2 is a bit bulky for speedball, others have used it with great success.
Weight - The Spyder MR2 has a little more weight to it and may take some getting used to if you've been firing only ultra-light markers. If you are looking for a marker with a more realistic heft to it, however, the MR2 is perfect.
Ball Chopping - Most users of the MR2 have reported that out of the box, this Spyder has a tendency to chop balls. The problem here is that the original detent that shipped with the MR2 doesn't work well at all with a force feed hopper. Either don't use a force feed hopper or replace the stock detent as soon as possible. Kingman has said they have fixed this issue on newer MR2s - but if you are buying used or from Ebay test it out before going to the field. The detent is fairly simple to replace and will save you a lot of hassle on the field.
Reliability - The MR2 functions near flawlessly over long periods of time. It is highly recommended to use compressed air rather than CO2 as this will extend the life of your marker and function much better in the field. Compressed air will also function much better in the long run if you are planning on firing very quickly.
Design - The MR2 is designed to fit ergonomically and balance naturally in the shooting position. The marker is constructed almost exclusively of metal and feels very solid when holding it. While some mil-sim replica markers feel very awkward when rigged up for paintball, the MR2 is the exception. The feel is very natural while maintaining an authentic look.
Stock Barrel - The stock barrel included with the MR2 is decent, but many paintball players prefer to upgrade the barrel of a marker first. The MR2 includes a volumizing shroud which will limit the types of after market barrels you will be able to use with it as some will not fit appropriately. If you are planning on upgrading the barrel, do a little research to make sure that your choice will fit before purchasing it.
Overall the Spyder MR2 is an excellent choice of marker for woodsball and scenario ball. The sturdy construction holds up over time to the abuse that you will put your marker through on the field. Test out your marker before heading out to the field, however, to make sure you have the proper detent installed. If not, its a simple enough upgrade. For the cost, the Spyder MR2 is an excellent value.

Paint Marker $60.54 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A paint marker is a type of marker pen that is used to create permanent writing on a variety of surfaces from paper to metal to stone.Unlike with most permanent markers the ink is an oilbased paint and generally requires shaking before use, similar to an aerosol spray paint can. In addition, the line is very opaque and, unlike spiritbased or other permanent inks, will not fade with exposure to UV light, and overlays all other colors beneath it. The paint from these types of markers is not truly permanent, as it can be removed using high pressure cleaning, paint thinning solvents such as acetone, or it can simply be painted over.
