Strengths:
it gives the tank the perfect placement on my gun, PERFECT
Weaknesses:
the on/off valve is for ON only
Review:
well it is a good drop forward, the distance it moves the tank is perfect for my setup, it puts the center of gravity right under the trigger frame, it is balanced perfectly. but, one of the reasons i bought this drop forward besides the fact that it was one of the cheaper drop forwards with an on/off valve, was because it had the valve. when it got to my house i was stoked, i couldnt wait to get it on but when i gassed it up, it worked fine but when i tried to turn it off, the valve knob just unscrewed in my hand but the gun still had gas. when i got on here i saw a couple other people with the same problem and tried some of the things they tried like trimming the pin in the drop forward down a little but that didnt work, so ive faced the fact that ive just got a standard drop forward which isnt bad because it put the tank in the perfect place so i live with it.
Conclusion:
i dono, its a good drop forward but i was disappointed when the on/off valve turned out to be a joke.
All in all, its a great drop forward that has been well made and i recommend it to everybody as long as they dont mind having a non functioning on/off valve, and it looks good on my gun too
that is cause u are then suppsoed to shoot the extra air out of your gun. The on/off does not remove the air that is in the air chamber of the gun. Learn your parts...
