Clearance issues, help!

[Cornmuffin87]

i need to find this out as quick as possible cuz i gotta order my christmas stuff....will a full sized shocktech drop forward clear my 6-stage ACI x-chamber? i want to be able to run the gas through the xchamber, but in order for it to fit will i need a stubby? or will the full sized one fit? (yeah yeah i realize my mag is running off of co2, so shadap and stop laughing)

The full sized one might hit actually. I'd try the medium length.

mkay thanx! oh, and if anyone has a pic of their gun with either sized shocktech drop on it, i would like to see it (u dont need to have the xchamber) i just wanna see how far it will bring my tank down and forward. Thanx again!

i have a full sized ST drop and it hit my 4 stage aci. I just switched to a standard sized kapp foregrip and that hit as well. if you want the bottle as far forward as possible you will need to use the full size drop. just put a spacer between the grip frame and drop, about 1/4 or an inch thick and that should allow you to clear the x-chamber or foregrip. only thing is you will have to be creative on the hose fittings if you want to run it through the foregrip/x-chamber, it going to be one tightest set ups for hoses around.

good luck

thanx! and when beer mentioned the 'medium' sized drop, is that the same as the 'stubby'? cuz on www.paintballgear.com all they have is a' Shocktech Dropforward" a "Shocktech minidrop" and a "Shocktech stubby" so is the stubby the medium one? cuz i might sacrifice more drop and forward for an easier fit, or i may go with the spacer idea. ugh! wish i had nitro so i could just run it up to the reg and get a 'dead on' dropforward.

I'm not sure i know there is small (inch or 2, medium (4 inches), large (5 inches) I would assume stubby is the medium one but im not positive.

There is the Shocktech Long -4" or so
Shocktech Stumpy which is the medium - about 3/4"-1" shorter that the Long
and the Mini-which goes about 1 1/2" forward and is slightly angled.

I personally love the mini and have used all 3.
