Thread: Drop Forward/Cradle Question(?)

    Question Drop Forward/Cradle Question(?)

    Ok I have a 68 automag and I want a Drop Froward or Cradle on it. But the package I got with the gun was a TKO gun pakcage. It includes a macroline kit and such for the gun(see pic below). How would I use a cradle or drop forward with it?

    Just unscrew the screws holding on the duckbill ASA, and screw on the Dropforward/cradle of your choice, the mags have threaded washers inset into the gripframe that hold ASAs and Drops on and such, just screw it on like most every other 'marker. I personally havnt seen any makrer that didnt use a threaded hole in the bottom of the grip frame. All thats left after that is to attach your tank to the drop/cradle and run your line to the valve.

    Just like Xzion says, any drop/cradle will work, most if not all have same hole pattern on bottom of trigger frame, you could say its "industry standard", if ya havent found a drop/cradle yet, check out the KAPP Drop Zone II, moves bottle almost under marker and gives marker a totaly new feel. Also balances marker very well.

    you can also shorten those macrolines to any size you want. I'm not sure if a KAPP DZII will clear your TKO foregrip, i have the same one . If my local store has one (probably not.. they don't have anything besides paint and tippmanns) I'll see if it fits and let you know.

    the only one I know of thats not standard, is the staggared holes on the bottom of the Spyder/kingman line of 'markers
