I put that on my gun... backwards... and I think I like it even more

haha I did that with a normal shocktech drop once.. It was schaweet..

Personally.. I was hesitant about ordering my unimount/rail setup.. but after seeing ALOT of people converting to them, and more pro's using them (don't say they get sponsered to.. I highly doubt there sponsers tell them they can't use a drop if they want).. So after all this I ended up getting one.. It felt a tad awkward at first.. But me, having long arms, after a little while playing with it I loved it.. I would NEVER get a drop again unless it was a mini one just to put the bottle flush with the triggerframe.. Which I still wouldn't because I love the feel of my inimount.

Everyone that holds my gun says it feels awkward to them.. Chicken arms I tell you.. Damn people.. They don't know.. I love my setup

That drop left is cool as hell, but does it come in drop right?

[Shykicker]

Yeah, but that one costs more. Just give me your Credit Card number and I'll order you one!

Seriously? I think you just flip it around 180* and screw it back on. Is called drop left because most people drop it left-wards. There is a major flaw in the design if it doesn't go either way.

Chicken arms I tell you

Just trying to imagine a chicken with arms...

with a large, or any drop, I find myself pushing the tank away from my body, which can create some inaccurate first few shots. I use the rail to force good shooting posture.

I cant stand peanut tanks! If I had one I would have to run a pretty large drop.

Edit:

I would run a drop if I was using a screw in. drives me crazy to have the fill nipple poking me in the arm. Plus screws with on.off are halla longer than non-pin valved tanks.

gtrsi, take off your fill nipple, put a 90* elbow on, then the fill nipple, I have seen numerous people do this. Also, with an on off, you can set the tank where you want it, then turn it on, if it is screwed in far enough.

Good idea!,
Onlly thing is I probally wont ever run screw ins again unless its a gun I loan out. Screw ins make the air portion of your gun so long. I have a pic somwhere of an old 88ci long next to a 72ci stub. the 88 is a conquest and the 72 is a crossfire, with the on.off asa it is almost as long as the conquest

I had mine setup like this... If you do this, dont let Brad AGD know... He'll be an absolute *** to you. Treat you like you are an idiot and such. He says its because elbows arent rated to such high PSI. I've had other Airsmiths tell me they are. The guy who was doing Air at Texball was actually the guy who set mine up a couple of years ago...

[Cryer]

Dubstar- do you like that on/off? I just ordered one from dead on with that same rail...

Just wondering if its worth the money I already spent

[painball]

I personally do not like the feel of a drop. On the other hand, I also do not like the feel of a rail with a 68ci tank. It just feels too long and uncomfortable with the rail. With the drop, I hate how it makes my gun so tall and right in my face (even with a shorter drop).

So I compensated and bought a 70ci "peanut" tank to go with a rail. It is very comfy and fits me pretty well. The only thing that kinda bothers me is the weird wrist angle, but it feels a heck of a lot better than a really long gun.

[Dubstar112]

Cryer, I use a 45/45 tank so it fits nicley. Not too long, but it just rests against my forearm. The adjustable rail isnt really that adjustable. But my CCM cocker has 2 different bottomline positions, so that helps.

Who cares? I usually don't listen to anyone on here or PBN concerning gun setups. Most of you are nothing more than keyboard jockeys that hear something, put their own personal twist on it, and state is as fact. I've grown weary of hearing "that drop is too big" or "sliders suck, get a hinge" and "I used that and it sucked". Ignorance, lying, and unintelligent, uninformed remarks run rampant around here. This phenomenon might be connected to the mean age of online-paintballers being 14.

I'm also sick of hearing about what the pros use. F the pros. Their being "pros" doesn't do anything for me or paintball in general. Their un versatile setups are tailored to their ridiculous style of play. What works on an air field differs from what works for almost every other aspect of paintball. If that wasn't the case, we'd all be running around with 18" barrels and 15 pods.

The irony is thick in your post.

[Shykicker]

Well, to be fair, everything's been said before, and will be said again without regards to how true or accurate it is. The only way to prove it is on the field, and in that case, I've got a bag of PMI Premium with your name on it.

that maybe true,
I thought most of the 4.5k fill nipples are SS and not nickel plated brass. Could be wrong though..
