:confused: If I just ordered a Longbow ready Tac one from the AGD website and a Long bow kit from Specops paintball. Am I going to have to worry about stuff not fitting together. I saw some other threads where people were talking about the design changing or something. I called AGD and they said it would work fine so I just want to be sure.

If everything you ordered is for AGD Tac-One you will have no issues but I bet after one season of game play you'll keep the AGD Tac-One and sell the Spec-Ops Longbow kit. ;)

Thanks for the info on them working. Im trying out the Tac one and im sure that it wont disappoint. I only play woodsball for the most part and have 3 other guns with stocks on them and I like them like that. I also ordered the Q-bow adapter kit for later if i wish to get into that.

Let me direct you to this thread and post #22 for the main issue with the longbow.

The other problem with the Longbow is marketing hype... but Spec Ops is good for that. ;)

Just for the record I have owned a Longbow kit and had a QLoader on it. I sold everything but I kept the Tac-One... I current run with a CP Razor Drop froward and a 68/4500 tank as a stock, keeps your arm/elbow tight to your body yet the marker high enough to sight down the barrel.

Oh, BTW, Welcome to the AO Family :cheers:

Thanks i came up with my own idea to fix the line-of-sight problem, a dogleg air through stock.

I go to the link that looper posted and you can see what he means, its a line of sight when wearing a paintball mask.

..just ordered a Longbow ready Tac one...

This is the key issue. If its not "Longbow Ready" then you're screwed, but you ordered the right setup, so you're sorted.

Here is my long bow with a spec ops dogleg stock. Go to here spec ops forum (http://forum.specialopspaintball.com/index.php?showtopic=167359&pid=2333108&mode=threaded&start=#entry2333108) to view pics. I am just waiting on some air line stuff to finish it. Any line of sight problems when wearing a mask are fixed. The stock required a few mods but works as it should. What do you all think, im not sure if anyone did this before but I think it makes the line of sight and the fact that the stock is longer makes the gun more comfortable to use.
