What's a good drop for a Z Grip?

[Smokee_2_7]

Damage,

I think youre definatly on the right track. One thing that I commend you on - -- gutting the black magic reg. another reg wont do squat for ya. (popular misconception) Keep it bypassed. lol, it sure is a pretty (although epxensive) gas thru grip.

Ans rail. . if ya look closely at the pic of my zgrip mag, i have the same rail. yes, the KAPP extender will fit fine, of course .. . thats after you mill out part of the extender to accomidate the zgrip. just about 15 minutes of going slow with a dremel and your set.

I think the holes for the zgrip panels are the same as a regular 45 (NOT sure, though.) however, the amount of grip that the panels cover is different. you may not like the other ones better than the stock. If your looking for something flashy to go there, PM Load sm5. he did the ones for my zgrip (clear w/ chrome flames inside) and they are great!

With macroline, id probably reccomend that you stay away from cutting the zgrip up to try to feed the line through the grip. using a gas thru grip should definitly work just as good, and will be a whole lot eaiser.

Your gun's looking good!! cant wait to see the pics with the zgrip on it!

Thank you, That means alot coming from someone that has a gun that looks as good as yours (Its been my desktop since I saw it in another thread!) You guys are being a whole lot of help and I appreciate it alot. Im liking building the 'mag because the Performance is there and one can concentrate on aesthetics, Much like building a Muscle car (Although there can always be a FEW performance mods to be done, Just for fun...lol)

Next question, Where can I find an angled ASA? (In Chrome?or no..)as was suggested by "dnm5d"?

I also like that Benchmark Drop, is there a good site to find that?

Thanks again guys...


*edit* Oh and one more thing, Who makes that Short rail extender like on paintbattler's gun?

[bornl33t]

I think it's custom or made by KAPP..

Damage,

Angled ASA's were made by dingo paintball ( think. . i dont have the URL handy. . )

The short extender in paintbattler's gun looks like a custom job. the only one's on the market im aware of are the KAPP ones. I like his too. .I feel that the kapp moves it too far forward for my tastes.

with the addition of a retrovalve and LV 10, your gonna be reallly rockin.

One thing i might suggest. .. when you put the retrovalve kit in, pay close attention to the feel of the trigger. If its not as 'bouncy' or light as you want it, you might look into sending it up to agd to have them adjust some stuff to compensate for the tolorances in that specific gun. (may result in a slightly shorter on/ off pin) however. . defintily send it to them for that one.lol. I had an extra on/ off pin, so i tried to do it myself. . . it started out great- - AWESOME pull and reactivity. . then somthing went wrong. So, both my retromags are up there right now having that done.

GOOD DROP FOWARD ON A Z GRIP

I DONT KNWO IF IT WILL BE NESSICARLY GOOD ON A Z GRIP BUT I REMEMBER YOU SAYIGN SOMETHIGN ABOUT YOU LIKEING YOUR TANDK FOWARD AND TUCKED AWAY, I LIKE THAT TOO AND THE BEST DROP FOWARD FOR THAT I THINK IS THE PSYCHOBALLISTICS DROPFOWARD. ITS A GOOD 2 IN DOWN AND 6 INCHES FOWARD SO IT SETS IT REALLY NICE I THINK I DONT KNOW HOW THAT WOULD FEEL ON A Z- GRIP THO...MAYBE THIS WILL HELP SEE YA

[Smokee_2_7]

johnny dee ,

Ill be the first to ask ya to please not type in all caps. (trust me, others will not be as nice. .lol) Its actually considered rude online - - - it's like your yelling.


Pyschoballistics Drops. . . hmmmm

I sell a pretty good bit of these. Yes, they're inexpensive, and yes, the do drop your tank into next week. They are very popular with Some of the younger players at my field- - probably due to the price (pretty low in comparison to other drops of comperable size). Without getting into the inner details on these drops, I would strongly suggest that you install and test one of these on your zgrip BEFORE you pay anything for it. Main reason is that with a normal sized tank, on a zgrip. . the pyschoballistics drop will move your tank SOO far forward that you will be eating the back of your valve. It will also make the gun Realllly front heavy, too. However, its all personal preference, but thats one that I'd definitly say try it before you buy it.

hmmm well avoid dingo at all costs, as wekk, he has quit shop, and screwed a good number of aoers.

kapp stubby dz2 is the best short drop out there :)

[Damage]

Rather than but the PB drop I can test the feel buy using the X drop I have on there now Its 2" down and 7" forward and Im almost certain that will be WAY to far forward The drop zone 2 is a good choice too. I saw a thread I think it was "Z Mag, Z Grip, Z Sweet" and he had a cool little drop on there.....Let me see if I can find it...
