How to Fix an O Ring on a Spyder TS

Having your Spyder TS paintball gun in good working order can mean the difference between winning and losing. The Kingman Spyder Tactical Sniper, or Spyder TS, is a paintball gun with a lengthened barrel and tighter tolerances than a standard Spyder Xtra paintball gun it is built on. This means that the gas system must work flawlessly to ensure paintballs leave the barrel at the right velocity so they will break. The O-rings in the system are an essential component to the gas system. They must be replaced periodically to keep the system working.
