Wedge design.

[darknite667]

The problem with a sharper angle is you start having clearance issues with your tank and the back end of the marker.

I agree 100%, a greater angle would be problematic to markers that extend past the back of the trigger frame much or used a trigger frame aside from a 45-90 so the 30 degree wedge angle would probably be the way to go. Its just a personal preference that if possible an angle greater then 30 degrees would be a more cotmfortable option. Im hesitant to throw this out there for scrutiny but since this thread is about comming up with wedge option ideas I will, has anyone thought about crossing the wedge design with a cradle rail system? It would be adjustable e individual marker setup and would keep the tank centered with the rest of the marker. Just throwing it out there.

How hard would it be to make it a two pc design where the two halves are held together with a bolt and the mating sides are a ratchet design? I can't think of a good reference that everyone would know, but think something along the lines of the MM2K9 breach, but with more settings. This way it would be adjustable and might appeal to a wider audience.

Wrist Angle Problem

I would think that this product is'nt for everybody out there. So who ever is comfortable with the angle usually purchases one and whoever is uncomfortable with the wrist angle can choose not to purchase it. your never gonna make everybody happy with a product unless it is a one-off to suit that particular individual. So that being said it seems like majority have had no problems with the NDZ wedge. the only problem is that they are not going to make them anymore yet some of us are still in the market for them so i hope that helps answer any questions of what is in demand for this product. just my 2 cents

I've not used one, but was considering it. I am not sure of what angle is best, thus my idea for adjustability. I also thought part of the reason for the angle was resting it on the shoulder helped with weight distribution resulting in less fatigue.

hey Luke thanks for taking on this project! the drop kick is a great wedge, but i agree with Ando that to much of a Angle on a Z-grip frame and it starts to interfere with the back of the marker! the Z-grip frame is the only frame i have to take my tank off to easily get to the valve cause of where the angle of the drop kick puts the tank? so far thats the only con for the drop kick that i kno of we except you rarely find them...haha...its gonna be kool to see what you come up with! thanks man!!!

The NDZ wedges already have dovetails and still get in the way.

[river031403]

yup

The NDZ wedges already have dovetails and still get in the way.

yeah i am aware that they have a dovetail cut into them but doesnt seem to be in the way if you move far back enough in my case anyway.
