I got back from Hawaii last night at 11pm, found the package from agd on my doorstep. Despite devolping the flu and feeling like utter poo I just had to shoot it before I went to sleep.

I opened it up and screwed in a Pure Energy tank and a loud leaking noise came down the barrel and air was spewing from the screw in asa that it came with. As I cursed to myself about my horriable bad luck (2 of the most reliable guns coming messed up, a Viking (2 returns later I finally sent it back for a refund and now the RT) I figured I'd try my other pure energy tank for the heck of it. Nope. So I went out in the garage and found an old screw in asa that came with my old 98 cocker that I kept around all these years.

I Dusted it off and hooked it up, low and behold it worked. Yay I yelled to myself as I slumped on over to my bed and was out like a mouse.

Also I noticed my warped sports drop wont fit it bumps the foregrip. Would a Shocktech Long Drop Forward work ? Don't have the gun handy and would like to order a drop asap to play this weekend.

Overall length: 5"
* Drops your tank down: 1 5/8"
* Moves your tank forward approximately: 3"

Or any other recommendations.

Good, till I got sick on the last day. This is my 3rd time I've gone. I went to Maui. I always tend to get sick on vacations and when I get sick on vactions I get horriably Ill. It's just a give I get sick on Vacation and Thanksgiving about 3/4 the time and I don't get sick for the rest of the year. How much does paint go for over there ? I've heard about $75-80 for a box of Blaze. Hopefully thats exgerated. I normally play at my local airball field or a rec field we got set up.

if your asa's were screw in you may of had the same problem my friend had... try putting an old asa in and set a oring in the asa to be used as a spacer and then screw in the tank... thats probably the only thing wrong with the asa's at least that is all it took for my friend

I've had ASA that will cut the o-ring on one tank, but work fine on another tank. Lock 'o the draw I guess. I just keep a few diff ASA's around for diff tanks.

Thanks for the advice that will probably work. I looked around and apparently Pure Energy tanks have the longest pin which has caused a few problems. I'm just gonna end up buying a drop anyways. I'm hoping the Shocktech long drop fits it's about 1/2 an inch too long but in the picture the lowered front looks like it just might clear the foregrip in front.

Heh. My RT-Pro is like that. Will instantly slice the o-rings on a tank.

So, instead of using O-Rings, I use those 'black magic' Washers that go in the bottom.

No more replacing O-Rings! Yay!

And, I've got a Shocktech drop on my RTP, Manages to fit even with a Y-Grip (Mind you, I do have the older style grip)
