            It really depends on the frame. For instance, I like 90* Angel frames, but I feel the Evolve 90* frame for Matrices has rather huge grips (at least for me), which makes it awkward to hold. Really, I don't have much of a preference. 90* frames are nice for getting the gun closer, but I'll work with whatever I have.

            Now the other question is do you like 45 frames with a bump (Timmy / FS) or not

              No, i like straight 45* frames, although, the new angel 45* frames, with a slight hump, are really comfy as well. Frame makes a big difference in a marker to me, as, i actually wrap my whole hand around the frame while shooting unlike some who just have a thumb on the back, and fingers going.

                In paintball , electros especially since you shoot them nothing like a Firearm....you could cut the frame off under the trigger guard and I wouldn't care in the least.
                Agreed. I could care less what frame is on a gun when I am walking the trigger. I am holding it by the airsystem most of the time, or by the reg.

                  I haven't tried the new Angel 45 frames, but I started to really like my FS frame when I had it. I tend to use my hold hand around the frame and tend to walk the trigger with the back part of my fingers (closest to my knuckles)

                    Wow, most people who start with .45's on here don't like 90's. Well, I started out playing with .45's and did so for about 3-4 years. The second I picked up a 90* frame I decided I'd never go back. I don't know, they're just really comfy to me. I don't tend to walk the trigger while playing, maybe that's why. Even now that my gun's electro, I pull the trigger with one finger and I actually do wrap my hand around the frame.

                        I like both 90's and 45's. I tend to shoot with only a small portion of my palm touching the back of the frame and my fingers hovering over the trigger. I keep the marker stable by holding it firmly with my left hand against my shoulder. It makes shooting any frame style very easy and comfortable.

                          No preference. Now if you go past 90* I can't get used to it.

                            I have a 90 degree Angel and a 90 degree retro mag. I like both very much. I also have a 45 degree automag and a 45 degree emag which also feel good plus several other 45 framed paintball guns.

                            I do prefer the 90 degree frames overall when playing speedball. Its not as much of a preference when in the woods.
                            Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                                whelp, i just made the leap.
                                and figured i'd give the 90 chimera a shot. just ordered it from themagsmith today and i can't wait to slap it on my pariah mag. if nothing else, it'll at least look cool as heck with the pariah body/dallara rail
