Does anybody use their verticle adapters for what they're made to be used for. I always see people using their V/As for a reg or an x chamber. V/As were put there for a perpose and yet nobody uses them for that purpose anymore. Also I was wondering if anyone has ever used a vert adapter with a nitro tank.

There's a REASON people put their regs and foregrips there. You ever hang a tank from there? It's uncomfortable, heavy, off balance and just plain AWFUL looking. -
Actually I shot a Compact 2000 and it was just that, very compact. With a small tank(a 9oz for instance)a gun with a V/A is very comfortable and compact. You can get it really close to your body when shooting. Aslo it was ballanced very well. The center of ballance was the tank.Comment

The problem is, people dont want the gun close to their body (hence why using drops has become un-popular). Also gives you nothing to shoulder, so, recoil would be far greater. And besides that, its just ugly.Comment

And the number of guns that don't need a secondary reg are limited. Basicly none once you get to mid range guns let alone high end."Relax. Don't worry. Have a Home Brew."

you play with a spyder, probably amost exclusively woodsball. enough said.
with the tank on the vert adapter you have no foregrip, nothing to shoulder the gun (which is okay for rec, i guess...) and it isnt balanced well. plus if you play speedball i can just see the tank getting in the way a lot. the only VA setup i would consider would be a phantom and 3.5 oz.

Um, no clade I don't use a spyder. I shot one last year. One kid I was playing with had one so I wanted to see how it shot. I actually kinda like V/As myself. And for the foregrip why not just hold the tank.
As somebody said though. I think a gun with a horizontal foregrip would work fine with a V/A. I was at one point looking to get one for my P/C.Comment

I'm sure it's fine for woodsball. But it would be just stupid in speedball/tourney ball. You'd need a stock so you can have something to shoulder against. And I'd definitely put a cover on the tank if it's a co2 tank and you're shooting a semi. Cold finegrs! Only for woods, I'd never use a va bottle setup in speed.Comment
