The gun just came out, so I don't think there would be a lot of highly upgraded ones out there just yet.
At Kingman's official forums there is a thread full of customized MR1s. You might want to look there for inspiration. http://www.spyder.tv/forums/showthre...=13730&page=58

Personally I wouldn't drop a lot of money on upgrades for an MR100 other than "universal" upgrades like the tank and loader.

U dont like the gun ? I did really well this weekend with it , i used about 3k paint balls through out the course of the day with no jams or problems , im gonna get the 16in barrel by custom products for it to help with long distance accuracy and i jus found out they will be releasing a e-trigger set up for it in about 2 months

Oh no, nothing against it, but speaking from experience, you ought to be wary of sinking a lot of money into upgrades for a gun that won't do much to increase actual performance.

For example, a 16" barrel is going to be VERY long and difficult to handle, but length has nothing to do with how accurate the barrel is going to be.
Also, CP makes a good product but I don't think a CP barrel would necessarily be any more accurate than the stock barrel, no matter what the length.

As for an E-trigger, why wait for Kingman to come out with the new gun? Wouldn't any Spyder E-frame bolt right on?

well if you run it with a stock then get a remote coil, makes aiming easier and takes a lot of weight of the gun.

Hey there Mate,

I do have a couple of suggestions for the gun that will help it (or at least it did for me).

Although 14" barrel is really the cutoff for increasing accuracy through length (so much debate on this too that who knows) the 16" can help you position yourself better in woodsball. The stock 12" is actually not that bad, its a good bore for most field paint. For 16" I use two different kinds:

http://www.trinitypaintball.com/Prod...uctCode=TR+370

This one I just used at a Big Game and I did pretty damn well. You'll notice if you use two coloured balls the spin it puts on them as they leave.

Alternate to that one would be:

http://www.ansgear.com/Smart_Parts_T...lbarrelspy.htm

I really find Smart Parts good for their bore size as well and that tends to be more important than length of barrel.

For a stock, I stopped using the Stock one (pun intended) and switched to this guy which I found much more comfortable in Woodsball:

http://www.ansgear.com/Kingman_Spyde...eriesstock.htm

Other than that stuff the only thing I would change is the Feedneck to something more durable:

http://www.trinitypaintball.com/Prod...tCode=TR%2D505

And then grab yourself something like the Fasta Loader and you're set.

The gun does great in the right hands. I had a Riot at Wasaga's Big Game.
