    I have a piece of t slotted extrusion that you could mount everything to and adjust just about every aspect of it I would just need to come up with a length and thread it for a barrel

      I like my guns two ways.

      First is the rifle feel. My pro/carbine has the perfect rifle feel. It has the 45 pistol grip that sits out perfect when sholdering my gun with a 12 or 20 length tank. Also the horizontal front handgrip just makes it feel right when I shoot it like a rifle. The other thing I like about my P/C is how it is weighted with a 20oz co2, a full hopper and a 16 inch barrel. It feels "right". The 12oz co2 feels better when the hopper is starting to run low.

      Second is the laid back feel of a gun like a mag. I still haven't shot a mag with the y or z grip but from my experience with guns that have vert or 45 frames I would much rather have them lean back. Tanks on non rifle gun have never felt right to me. The only way I really like them is with remotes or stocks. I haven't shot any guns with a nice drop yet so I don't know how that would effect the way I like the gun.

          My E-Mag actually doesn't ballance well at all with an aluminum barrel on it and a full Egg (it becomes tail heavy) but it does have propper hand/arm position for me now that I'm running a CP rail instead of the Microdrop.

          close to ideal set-up for ballance and arm position.
          14" Stainless Long Shot
          Full Egg II
          CP Rail
          68/4500 Flatline w/ AGD adapter block and tank set as far forward as the rail will allow

          foregrip position is good on my E-Mag for me with the battery pack

          So long as the ballance point of the marker is somewhere over the webbing of my shooting hand (roughly where the field strip bolt is on the Automag) and the tank doesn't force my elbow out farther than I already naturally want to put it I like it. There becomes and issue when things start to get too long, like how my friend has his shocker set-up with the reverse Maxflow rail and his 68/4500 Manifold Maxflow.

          The Ion also has a very mag-esque feel to it though admittedly it's a bit lighter and a lot more tail heavy because of the reduced weight of the rest of the gun.

          Appart from the Shocker and the Ion you'll be hard pressed to find something that'll put your body roughly into the same position as your E-Mag. Personally I'm partial to Angels too and if I weren't shooting an E-Mag, I'd be shooting an 05 Speed.

          Put a egg on any gun, it will not ballance well.

                How many Markers have feednecks that are in the CENTER of the marker itself?

                Feednecks in the front..
                Please correct me on any of these.

                ALL Vikings
                ALL Excaliburs
                ALL Model 98s
                ALL Autocockers
                ...
                Hell.
                You name some guns wth the Feedneck in the MIDDLE of the Marker. I'm talking about everyday, the ones you see people playing with.
