Valve Compatibility

Will the stock VS2 valve fit in the newer Spyder guns?

They will but some modification is required in order for the marker to function properly.

You'd have to take out the valve pin located on the side of the marker in order for the vs2 internals to fit properly. With the pin removed you'll have two holes exposed acting as exhaust ports. You'll have to find a way to cover those holes up so the marker can recock properly.

The newer bodies don't work as of yet. Major cycling issue as the valve was designed for a longer body was the first issue. No valve springs, relief ports and Bolt pin placement might not line up soo it clears the bore and lines up the air hole

That's very true. I didn't think about the newer Spyder bodies.
