    Spyder 25g-50g microswitch?

    Can someone recall the model number of the replacement microswitch for an e-grip. Specifically looking for Imagine or AMG direct fit replacement.

    Not a guarantee, but possibly this?

    Diablo Wrath Replacement Trigger MicroSwitch (19537) - ANSgear.com

    The Wrath was a Spyder clone. And this looks close assuming the images are accurate. At the very least I would hope the spacing on the switch is the same for the trigger pins and if the harness isn't compatible, it's an easy solder job.

    Might wanna call ANS and see if it's actually in stock though. Or maybe they're generous and give you a part number off the switch.

    Or this? I seem to remember Spyder switches looking like this back in the day. Activation weight isn't listed, but maybe will get you down the right path.

    Also, from what I remember, stock Spyder switches were 250g. I'm not saying you don't want that, but I found that whack back in the good ole days. Then again I found out why they came with 250g switches stock lol. Things turned into MG-42 paint choppers with a lighter switch. ​Maybe Kingman was on to something.

      I replaced the micro switch years ago. I think 25g is too light for a Spyder, I do believe the stock micro is 250g. I think I used a 50 or 75 g switch.
      Digikey or radio shack had them.

        20 years later and the Wrath is still mistaken for a Spyder clone. I believe they used the Wrath microswitch in the later versions of the Mongoose which is a Spyder/Dragun clone. I can check when I get home if it helps at all.

        If you are looking for a replacement id check Oregonpaintball. They dont have the best reputation but I have only had a few minor problems with them over the years and their customer service is pretty fast to respond.
