I had a spyder vs3 for over a year i had some problems but not huge ones.
In my opinion i think it is really heavy and heres why after getting this gun and using it for a year i bought the pmr special edition which is essiantally a pm6. the body of this gun looks like a square block and it reminds me of like an 01 or 02 4x4 shocker.
The board only has 3 shot and simi, thats worse than the pilot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i got when they were brand new not worth 280 by an means.

over all 5or6/10

Kingman Group Spyder VS3 I've owned my VS3 for about 1 yr, 2 months. It is quieter than all my friends' ions. Its faster than my friends' ions and a guys PM6. I can get 1000 shots out of a 72/3000 with the pressure at 175...

I've owned my VS3 for about 1 yr, 2 months. It is quieter than all my friends' ions. Its faster than my friends' ions and a guys PM6. I can get 1000 shots out of a 72/3000 with the pressure at 175 psi. IDK how I got it that low. I really like the gun. The bolt is a delrin bolt so no need to replace. The stock barrel is ok so you might want to replace that, but u may have to shave the front shroud off. The feedneck is also ok, the gun takes Impulse threaded feednecks so you have plenty of feedneck options. The trigger frame is horrid. I hate the Rocking trigger. The reg is meh. I just replaced it. The vert. asa is bad. You have to get a reg adapter to use a different regulator. The hammer is small an light.

I used to have this gun and it was very good to me. It was my second gun and i was scared to take it apart but as I took it apart piece by piece it was surprisingly easy. Its very easy to lube and clean after every day of play. Shoots great for a Spyder and I got up to some high speeds with the Rocking Trigger. There is little kick but that is expected with a blowback marker. The kick is bearly noticeable and very easy to control. Very good for the Price and overall 4.5 out of 5

I have had this gun for about 6 months. I have used it around 4 times, and I enjoyed it every single time. Performance wise, this gun stock is as good as intimidators and rails, I would know because I played against people with that and I owned them (please excuse my bragging). One can get the performance way higher by upgrading, and since the gun is about 150 now, you can get it alot higher than say you would with an intimidator (that's unless you have a lot of mula). Now the thing that bothers me is the reliability, as you know I have only used this thing around 4 times, and the solenoid on my gun is starting to go out, as it take a few shots before it will push the sear. Looks is what got me to buy this over the vs2, I think that the vs3 just looks beautiful with its sleak design and its color to go with it. The rocking trigger in my opinion, is the best trigger they've made yet, because I have slow fingers and I can get 14bps average, and I peak at around 16. For those of you that do not know what the rocking trigger is, it is a trigger with 2 contact points, meaing that I can hit the top and bottom to get 2 shots.
Overall, the gun has been the best bang for my buck that I have ever gotten, because if I decide that I want my gun to be as good as ego's are, then I just upgrade the heck out of it, and it will come close (because I don't think one can get a spyder to be as good as ego's, or maybe you can). If you want a gun that you know is going to be good, and yet you don't want to pay 500 dollars for that gun, then get this.
BTW I hear that kingman has great costomer service, but I really don't want to go into all that.
