Full review

I bought a Spyder e99 Avant about 3 years ago to use for weekend paintball trips. It has an electronic grip frame with 3 functions; semi-automatic, 3-shot burst and full auto. Most paintball sites will only allow you to use the semi-automatic mode, which is sensible given how fast you'd get through paint on either of the other settings!
The e99 is quite light and is very simply made, making maintenance easy even during the middle of a game. The bolt slides out of the back of the marker to make removing broken paintballs a quick job. The stock barrel isn't very high quality, but most buyers would replace this on all but very high-end guns anyway. A good marker for the occasional recreational player or a beginner due to its easy maintenance, robust construction and low cost.
