It depends on the threads of the Apex barrel. If the threads are that of a autococker, A5, or spyder then no, it will not fit. Though if it does have Tippmann threads then by all means it will fit.

How do you put a anti chop bolt into your spyder mr1 that is top cocking?

Unfortunately an Antichop bolt is not made for the MR1, nor do I think a Anti-chop bolt would work without extensive work to the gun (valve, springs, ect)

I would suggest that you switch to a better grade of paint and an electric hopper. Both of these will massively reduce the amount of chop that you will have.

What is the best camouflage pattern for paintball?

Camouflage all depends on your surroundings. Obviously, desert camouflage is not going to do you much good in the woods. Try to find clothing as similar as you can to your environment. I often play in the woods and I've found that anything dark green is effective. You can purchase a ghillie suit for the ultimate camouflage, but those can run more than $100. Try to avoid bright colors such as orange or pink, as these will give away your location. As far as specialized patterns go, i would recommend tiger stripe or the digital camo used by the marines.

Can you make trigger adjustments on a Marlin 30-30?

No, the triggers on 336 and other Marlin lever actions have no adjustments built in. Some gunsmiths and owners have worked over their triggers to make them better, but most just let them wear in. Aftermarket trigger springs, and mainspring kits are available from places like Wild West Guns, or Dave Clay, to make the trigger feel better. Sometimes this leads to lighter strikes, or misfires, so it's trial and error process. Hope this helps.

What is the strongest back up gun?

Generally, you should never need a backup gun in game. However if your primary breaks, its best to have either a quick replacement, usually a rental type like a Tippmann 98 (or your first gun) for the next game.

If you're referring to sidearms, the best pistols are the Tippmann TPX (my preference and the T8. Its really a decision between having co2 in the gun separate from the magazine (tpx) and having the co2 in the magazine (T9/8). This means that you get full use of the co2 in the TPX, but you also may have to load two separate things. Also the TPX magazines are cheaper due to them having no valves or pipes.

These are two separate questions, but yes, barrel lenght and propellant affect the distance and accuracy of paintballs.

What is a hopper and a tank from paintball?

A hopper is like a holder a hopper usually holds 180-200 paintballs, a hopper feeds paintballs down into the chamber of your gun were the bolt can force it out the barrel.

I strongly recomend you invest some money in a good electronic hopper.

A tank holds air which is like food for your paintball gun, it is used to operate all the parts in your gun, there are three types of air used in a paintball gun there is co2, which is not good for your gun because it might freeze your gun up and god forbid u might get frost bite but is rare, there is compressed air which is the best for your gun, then there is nitrogen which is better then co2 but worse then compressed air.
