    68. but most front players like 45s. just a personal preferance.

          I use a 68 with no drop. It shoulders extremely well and I have no trouble tucking in.

            a 88 would be terrible for a front player. a 68/45 would have enough air for the game the front player plays(maybe 600rnds)

                You can get about 900 from a 45/45, and about 1100-1200 from a 68/45. This depends greatly on setup though.

                    I wish I could get 900 off my 45/45, try more like 700.

                    Oh yeah, other than that i love my 45, perfect fit, just wish my gun got more shots..

                      What kind of gun do you shoot? What do you have your input pressure at?

                          I play front and use a 45/45 Air America Apoc. and it does just fine. I got it on the dye Apoc. Drop and is extremely easy to tuck in except that I need to find one of the stock mounting blocks so I can mount it right on the grip just to make it a bit easier to shoulder. My field can't fill to 4500psi at the moment but even with it at 3000psi i get more than enough air to last a game. Cause it's not like a front player has to dump as much paint as a mid or back player.

                            I'm a front player, and lot of it depends on ur style of front playing. some front palyers are REALLy heavy on the trigger and shoot about 600-800 or more. some only shoot 200-400. take a look at how much paint u shoot in a game, and than find out what u need. if ur only shoot a hopper, or a hopper and a pod, get a 45/45. if more go for a 68/45. if there's any chance that u might b playing mid/back and not always front, u may want to pick up an 88/45. 68/45 aren't big at all, and sholder nice, they are a nice safe bet, and u can usually get most of a game in playing in the back feild with one.
                            unless of course i'm totally wrong than forget everything i said
