| Review: |
I happened to find this cradle while browsing on palmers-pursuit.com. After only using the stock drop forward on my Piranha, I can say that this cradle is a drastic change. I purchased the 5" drop instead of the 8" because of my Stabilizer. The 8" goes much too forward and prevents me from being able to adjust the regulator. But the 5" is perfect for my EXT Pro. The cradle moves my tank about 1.5-2" more towards the front than my stock drop so that I can tuck my marker closer to my body.
After I screwed the cradle to my trigger frame, I then attached my tank and immediately noticed how well balanced my gun felt. As I held the trigger, I swung my gun/tank from side to side and noticed how easy it was to do so. This shows that center of balance was very close to my grip...where it should be. This makes it extremely comfortable to carry around.
I purchased my cradle with the on/off feature. There is nothing much to say about that. It does its job and it does it well. The only fallback is the price. |

| Conclusion: |
I am extremely pleased with my purchase. If you can find this same drop at a price you can afford, I suggest you get your hands on one as well, especially if you have a Piranha. The 5" drop feels so good. If you don't have a somewhat long reg like a Stabilizer, you might also opt for an 8". |
