    Hmmmmmm...... Yeah drop nazi's and the old rail nazi's (recently converted to drop nazi's) suck.

    Use whatever is comfortable, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah...

    Personally. I use a rail. But I don't shoot like most people. I rest the 45/45 between my bicep and the back of my fore arm and hold the gun parallel to my chest. I basically shoot sideways at people and have half the profile. But if I used a drop trying to do this.......? Oh my God.....I'd look like freakin handy man!!

      Ok I have the answer.
      I will put a rail on one of my Mags and a Drop on the other.
      Then I will shoot some one in the neck with both. then they can tell us what system is better.



      ^^^^^sounds logical to me

        No, it took me a few days of playing to get used to using a rail after using a drop for pretty much my entire paintball career. Now, I have been using a rail for 6 months, and they just feel like second nature, I don't think I could ever go back to using drops.

              with my mech mag, I could hold the gun up with one finger right behind the grip frame. Had a rail and 68/4.5k tank

                yeah no one anser is right. for me it depends wut place im playin that day if its back i prefer the mini gun at the waste idea often seen in movies to i rest the front on the bunker n light it up. but if i have to move at ill i like the rails.


                but to solve all our problems is m,ake a transparent marker that floats in the air just a lil out side ur field of veiw so then its comfortable n even wn its out there the other team has no idea

                    I agree with Doc. My stock flatline rail was perfect. However, my Impulse felt great with no drop, and a 68/45 crossfire, and my cocker feels great the way it is, no drop. Just the asa/rail mount. I have long arms though so it fits me good. Tank goes over my forearm.

                        5 or 6 years ago I had one of those tank cradles that wrapped totally around the mid section of the tank and you just ran a hose from the reg to the vert adapter. The tank ( a 114 ci) only stuck out 4.5 inches behind the grip and it did not make the gun ridiculously tall either. I still miss that set up and wish I never sold it. I have not been able to find a rail or drop that I have been 100% happy with in the past couple of years. I have gone through without exaggeration probably 15-20 various drops and rails in the past year and the only one that I was kind of satisfied with was the drop that comes stock on an e orracle with a SP on/off that came with my 03 shocker. With the 03 shocker I still have not found a drop or rail that I like on that gun yet.

                          A problem I can see with some drops is that you can't get your elbow in as tight. A guy on my team, gets shot a lot in the elbow, because he can't get in as tight with his drop, so he is probably going to switch to a rail.

                            Amen. I've heard this complaint so many times.

                              I can get just as tight in with a drop than when I experimented with a rail. I prefer the drop. I'll be sporting one in Xball at the Orlando open if I get to play.(might be subbing for a team, a guys wife is due that week!)

                                i'm a drop nazi

                                Honestly, tho, I'm faster on the trigger and more accurate with a rail...
                                I use to have a big drop, some of my friends would say ah loose that big drop and get a smaller. i never would listen to them cause i loved being compact in a bunker. but ever since my cocker has been down and using my friends mag with the rail on it, i have loved rails. so now i have a cp rail. I like having a very compact gun but i am, like cryer said, faster on the trigger and more accurate(well at least when im standing) with a rail.
