I'm looking for a new cradle/drop forward. My current setup(Lapco) doesn't put the bottle far enough forward for my liking.

here's a pic(horrible camera):

I want/need something that will put the tank a lot closer to center and be able to clear my foregrip. Can anybody point me in the right direction? I was thinking Kapp Dropzone but I'm not sure it'll clear my foregrip.

You could try finding a long enough drop and then mounting your tank backwards. My tank is mounted backwards but I still have a little bit of clearance problems with my foregrip.

i kinda like my 32* flame drop, i just wish it was like a 1/2 in longer but it does make it so i can shoulder my 68/3000 crossfire very nicely, it's actually very compfy to shoulder. but check the link in my sig to see how tight up it puts my tank

try a drop zone. I'm not sure if it goes down far enough to clear the foregrip, but you might be able to clamp it around the neck of the tank.

Try a medium shocktech drop and a CP on/off ASA.

The Drop's about the same, but it will take a lot of lengt out of the tank/asa part.

I used to have a medium Shocktech Drop on my mag, worked very nicely. I now have a blue long drop from www.deadonpaintball.com , tucks the bottle up very nicely on my cocker.
