Dear Tom,

I have found one small thing I think would be a great asset to AGD to start making. They are 15* Angled Verticle Bottle Addapters. The reason I think its a good idea is because I have found, when I want to run a very long dropforward (like a dropzone 2 or psyco ballistics) that my gasthru grip hits the dropforward , and won't work. I'm sure alot of people have this problem. Most of the gasthru grips i've tried on my mag ( and i've used several brands ) Willnot work with long dropforwards , making me use a VERY short dropforward , which i hate. To my knowledge i haven't seen one on the market. I think it'd be a good idea for people wanting to run a long dropforward with grip. Also , the addition to a emag or RTP would be nice too.

If you'd make one , i'd buy one up quick :)

I bet you could get any machine shop to cut a VA at 15* on top and thread it for the screw... :)

that is why u should buy a custom dropforward. i can make u one i just need to know how far forward u want it and how far down.i have made drops for all my teamates and they work out great.

yes..but the dingo ones look really cheesy and unfinished...we need something with the AGD stamp of quality on it

lol nitroduck, a month or so ago when i was looking at which cocker i was going to buy, i was playing with the black magic and liked the 15º. I thought the same thing, AGD should make a 15º adapter. Also I'd like a foregrip extender similar to the RT, either adjustable or just puts the foregrip 1" (basically the space directly infront of where the foregrip is currently). The 2" in front is very uncomfortable of the Kapp one, but I think a 1" would be perfect.

they look cheesy and unfinished because he doesn't anno them in the pictures. Why don't you try asking him to finish them instead of asking AGD to make a product they probably won't make a profit off of?

i disagree with the notion that AGD couldn't make a profit off of one. i'm sure Dingo does not manufacture these in the thousands that AGD is capable of doing, and with mass production comes lower costs and greater profits.

I don't know, all I do know is that I would buy 2 of them if AGD sterted making them.

I talked to the man that runs dingopaintball a couple days ago, he custom makes the 15* asa to order. The reason that the asa did not look finished was because he had not polished the aluminum. I think it's a pretty reasonable price too. He's a really nice guy, very customer service based.

Mass production doesn't matter if they don't sell them.

AGD wouldn't make them either. Even with the AGD name on it. They would part it out to an outside Milling Company to be made to their specs. Like they do most everything else. They would quality control them however. But thats about it.

I have the same problem as nitro duck. I have a DZ II and my gas trough won't fit, i've been trying to find a grip that will. I have a stock mini. Any one know of a grip that will fit???? i don't wanna give up my dz II

Hey, if AGD came out with one of these that was more streamline, and mabe 2 outputs or something, I'd most definately pick one up.

I've got a Stretch-Z dropforward and haven't gotten around to gettin' a forgrip 'cuz I want a gas-through, but it'll probably run into my drop.

You've got MY signiature :)
