Here is the marker... now I need to know what you guys think of the bike grip on there... its not really functional do you think I would just get rid of it, I can't decide if I like it with or without it more. I also now have a y-grip on it as well as dye stickies and a cp on/off.

from a purely aesthetic concern, i think the pattern on the bike grip conflicts with the simplicity of the sides of the rail. Maybe the gun would look better with a grip with straight horizontal lines to match the pump handle? There are many expansion chambers that have horizontal lines, and depending on how hollow they are, not TOO heavy.

Get rid of it, it'd look better as a straight pump

You can also try a CP gas through grip.

in my opinion, i say go without the bike grip. either with a more simple grip or without it like Cato suggested. with or without the bike grip or even a totally new completely different foregrip, thats nice looking marker you got there

Have you ever thought about the DeadlyWind 10* carbon fiber foregrip? It's super light and would look nice.
The second option would be to just take the bike grip off and leave it as a natural pump. I like the lines and think it would look cleaner without a foregrip.

I was told, when playing pump. NEVER take your hand off the pump handle. Very rarely do u need to hold the marker by the foregrip. Id ditch it and just keep your hand on the pump where it belongs

replace the bike gripe with a bucket changer...or a 4oz.

Nothing like getting 12 shots off :p

Seriously though, I'd run a disposable Crosman 88g with a shroud. I run that setup on my Minimag, and not only does it look good, but it gets plenty of shots off and doesn't let liquid into the valve. I made a handful of neoprene sleeves that I cover them with and it looks damn good. It's a more appropriate size/shot count for the gas efficiency of a classic valve (even pump).

I didn't mean full, run them empty!
