    Never say CAN'T to a bunch of Mag enthusiasts. Obviously this was custom, but a great job, nonetheless. Props to Kenjay.

          Careful if that is a standard RT Pro/ULE Custom ASA. I tried to tap an LPR hole in one of those only to find that the screw hole went right through the area I was drilling/tapping. Needless to say, I lost that ASA. I don't think standard RT Pro ASA can be tapped for a front air port. Not enough space.

            On the bottom for now...

            I just ordered this:


            I believe it has ports on three sides. I had already received a palmer micro rock. I could screw it right in the front or put it on the side with a 90. I like my hose ran from my bottom asa all the way to the valve. Something about that big long hose screams mag.

            I'll post pictures when I get it set up. Just waiting on my cheater. I want to thank everyone on all the suggestions, you gave me way to much to think about.

              Um.... I bought it that way? I just got it off eBay. Maybe it's an older model that came as HP. I love it, though. Coolest ASA ever!

              xero28, kenjay... I stand corrected. I can't believe you hid that LPR inside the foregrip. That's freaking sweet!

                It's personal preference. You can really put it anywhere. Mine is sleeper style so it's hidden in the grip frame and tapped through the top of my CP direct mount ASA. My wife's is run right off of her ASA on the left hand side while I'm too lazy to get her frame tapped. it doesn't bother her at all and there's no need to mill your rail or fore-grip...

                P.S> About the whole can't/can put an LPR in a fore-grip. Remember that you can USE an entire LPR as the fore-grip as many other markers use. These are generally much higher end reg's though they don't really need to be. I've known several people to just use Dye fore-grip regs to great satisfaction. I'd even bet that most Palmers or AKA reg's would work well in this position if you wanted a smaller/cheaper LPR (well cheaper than Dye anyways).

                  That would be interesting, at the least. I would like to see that.

                          I was thinking gloss black air-port and gloss black tickler, but that works too.

                            couldnt there be air hole drilled into the mag with a PTC fitting screwed on or installed on the valve where you can use a steel line and rig that to the rock in the foregrip, and run the line back to the 3way or is it 2way
