Paintball Kingman

A review of the MR2 Spyder Kingman Paintball Marker

If you play ball or woodsball scenario at all, eventually you may prefer a gun that has a little more realistic weapon that many of the available markers look. The Kingman Spyder MR2 is an excellent choice for its first military-style electronic scoreboard. Spyders are known for their reliability and ease of use and maintenance. The MR2 is no exception, and combined with hot appearance is a marker great fun to use for any type of game scenarios. While for some, the MR2 is a bit bulky for speedball, others have used with great success.

Weight – The MR2 Spyder weighs little more to it and may take some getting used to if you've been cooking ultra-light markers. If you are looking for a marker with a realistic weight, however, The MR2 is perfect.

Chop Ball – Most MR2 users have reported that out of the box, the Spyder has a tendency to cut the balls. The problem here is that the original seal included with the MR2 is not working well at all with a hopper of force. Or do not use a hopper or replace force values retainer as soon as possible. Kingman said that they have fixed this problem in the new MR2s – but if you are buying used or try Ebay before going to field. The catch is pretty simple to replace and will save a lot of problems in the field.

Reliability – The functions MR2 close smoothly for long periods of time. It is highly recommended to use Compressed Air instead of CO2 This will extend the life of your marker and it works much better in the field. Compressed air will work much better in the long run if you are planning on fire very quickly.

Design – The MR2 is ergonomically designed to fit the natural balance in the firing position. The marker is constructed almost entirely of metal and feels very solid when holding it. While some markers million replica feel very sim uncomfortable when rigged for paintball, the MR2 is the exception. The feeling is very natural, while maintaining an authentic look.

Stock Barrel – The actions included with the MR2 barrel is decent, but many players prefer to upgrade the Paintball Gun of a first marker. The shroud includes a volumizing MR2 limiting market rates after the barrels will be able to use her as some do not fit properly. If you are planning to upgrade the barrel, make some research to make sure that your choice will be adjusted before you buy.

Overall the MR2 Spyder is an excellent marker for woodsball and scenario ball. The robust design maintains in time with the abuse that you will put through the marker in the field. Test your marker before leaving the field, however, to ensure you have the seal installed. If not, is a pretty simple upgrade. For the price, the MR2 Spyder is an excellent value.

Carbon Fiber Tank, 4500 psi, 88 cu ft $839.99 DOT-approved Carbon fiber filament wound over aluminum bladder 88 cu ft 4500 psi max pressure 11.3 lbs dry weight Includes: Hose with 1/8" BSPP threads on both ends Seal washer Hose has an inline gauge (eliminates use of a yoke) Air Venturi female quick-disconnect adapter with 1/8" BSPP male threads on one end This is not a scuba tank. It’s a carbon fiber tank, which is also called an scba tank, and has a high-pressure scba valve…like the one firefighters use on their scba tanks. Many dive shops do not have the ability to fill these tanks. In some towns, the fire department has a compressor that can fill a high-pressure carbon fiber tank, as firefighters use smaller scba tanks for breathing equipment during rescues. You might want to approach your local fire department and ask if they would be willing to fill your high-pressure carbon fiber/scba tank from their compressor. Another alternative is to contact a local paintball store, as paintballers use carbon fiber tanks to fill their markers. If the only alternative you have is to fill your high-pressure carbon fiber scba tank at a dive shop, a 1/8" BSPP male to DIN female adapter (our part # AA-Z2128-300) can temporarily replace the hose on the valve adapter so the dive shop can fill your tank.
