Drop Fowards

[-=Squid=-]

[hAppy]

i have my word in this
warped seem to get crazy all of a sudden

1. i used a drop, PERSONALLY JUST ME, i shot like a box, making your body much wider, and it made my gun taller. making my hopper very vulnerable to hopper hits

2. i got my unimount, i started to have a much much easier time walking my emag. not to mention it cut off alot of height. the tank straightens out your body and lets you shoot w/ your body turned more, so you lose alot of possibly target area

3. anyone who uses a tank bigger than 70ci, should use a drop unless you have the arms of a basketball player ( just a stereotype, dont flame me )

4. its really just the player's preference

by moving the tank further forward, you can make yourself a smaller target from the side, and it's easier to snap shoot.

Ever since I got rid of my drop I have been playing better. Snap shooting quicker. Elimination count has risen.

Some of you people are so absorbed by what is considered cool now.

"Drops are so out"

"Go back to 99"

"Please, if you are still using drops its like you are still running windows 95 on your computer......" (I hope that wasnt a comment on my PC)

You people will let the industry tell you whats cool, and tell you where to put your dollars. Thats right, right now, it's a Viking. If you are using an Intimidaor, you are so last week! You people sound like cheer leaders.

Oh, so, I guess pros are ALWAYS right about everything, huh? Then what are all you mag people doing?!?! Get a Viking right now, because the Intimidator isnt cool anymore, and you better go back to 95, when mags were awesome!! Do you see what I mean? It's pretty dumb to say that things are too old to be cool. If you can play good with your set-up, and you can shut people's mouths when it counts, you are cool. I really have forgotten what it was like though. Always trying to be "cooler" than everyone else. That was the life back in 8th grade.

Yes, it is personal preference, but usning a drop isnt a bad thing. You have a brain, you can think for your self. I like using a drop,so I will continue to do so. Until I switch, I guess I'll be stale.

member#10,261, I never thought remotes were a bad idea, just too heavy.

Good point Mindflux, it's true, the hopper is no higher if you look down the barrel.

xXhAppyAznXx, I'm crazy 24/7! I told you I was about to make a few more enemies. No one likes to agree with me. For those that have on this, thank you.

I got a crazy idea.Set up your gun so it feels most comfortable to you.Whether that means drop or not doesn't really matter.

Realize also that what type of drop you use is highly dependent on how long/short your arms are in comparison to what size tank you use. You're going to use a shorter drop if you use a peanut, etc. I would recommend getting your stuff together and heading down to the nearest pro shop and trying them all out. I went through at least 3 before deciding what fit me (you know, the one that's going to be shooting the marker) best. Since the dude in the picture has a set up that makes a huge difference in my game, not.

And technically, a rail is still a dropFORWARD isnt it? after all, it still brings the tank forward...

Well put tony.

WarpedRT - if you are worried about your side profile your gonna get shot anyways, because if your side profile determines HIS Shot, hes likely bunkering you. Go back to 99', if all your gonna do is say how stupid this new stuff is.

Spongebob, you only dislike drops because the pros dont use them anymore. Kind of like everyone getting stupid headbands because it is cool, bending their mask bottoms up, not using knee/shin pads anymore, or even not wearing hats any longer. I have seen alot of people playing lately without drop, and I think it's gay. I also saw taht someon wrote how drops dont help you play tighter. What bs. Of course they do, by moving the tank further forward, you can make yourself a smaller target from the side, and it's easier to snap shoot.

I have a Dead-On drop, which is HUGE. it's great, it must put that tank like 5 inches or so forward and about 3 down. I love it.

uh...................yeah what he said

Drops are retarded and have absolutely no point to it. If you can't play as tight with a rail as you can with a drop your doing something wrong. I, like others, still don't see why you want your loader up that high just so you can have the tank pushed further out, and down. Makes no sence.

I don't see how your loader is up any higher with a drop than a rail, especially when most people take sight down the side of the marker and follow it out to the barrel.

So regardless if you're holding a marker with a rail or a drop.. the barrel is eye level to you.. the hopper is no higher.

could someone post pics to compare a newer drop and a newer rail?
