    Do you prefer Drop Forward or Direct mount ?

    I am curious to see how many prefer using a drop forward and how many like the direct mounted ASA ?

    Should add angled mount. Dropkick for the win

      Depends. I don't like the huge drop forwards, but I have a small SP rail that puts the ASA down and forward slightly that I like. Have it on two markers. Also have some that are just rail mount and several directs.

        Small drop forward for 68ci bottles (most mags). Direct mount (or reverse mini drop) for 45ci bottles (A1, pumps).

        Old spoolers like the FS7/8 and DM~3 where the loader hangs far out front, I'll use a direct mount.

        Usually, the combination of bottle, loader, and marker layout pushes me one way or the other.

          all mine are direct because i've never held one with a drop and don't want to spend money and not like it.

            Depends

            I like the position a small drop puts a 68 in, but a direct mount makes a sleeper pneumag easier (or at least more conventional)

              id have to vote for direct mount! mags look more compact to me that way but the stiletto drop looks sick!

                Offset drop forward. My mags will balance on one finger under the trigger guard when full of paint. Just the way I like it. And it keeps my markers short front to back for me to cram in behind stuff.

                  Direct mount !

                  I play with a remote and I don't like the look of the drop forward !

                    I use a drop on every gun I use. Its just the way I learned and I find it comfortable.

                      I second that ^ I like drops because it puts your marker closer and its comfy.

                        I'd prefer a rail above all. That's just me though. Otherwise, a drop-forward.

                          I don't like my gun in my face when shouldered so I've been using direct mounts. I only use 68/4500 tanks and find it very comfortable for me to hold.

                              I used to use drops on everything but recently I've found I like direct mount/rail mount better for my mags. It puts the tank weight further back which makes the "buisness end" feel lighter and quicker to point.

                              Plus, it's less weight overall. It's a feel thing though, I still have drops on my Orracle and a sniper I have.
