Remote

[GuyIncognito]

I am going to be getting a tipppman soon and i was wondering...how is the remote, is it a nusence or is it a big relief from carring the tank, thanx for any feedback.

how is this related to tippys? running a remote on any gun will be the same...

its all practically personal preference... if you dont want the tank, get a remote.

exactly what eryk said. i love my remote. it sticks nest to my side and i've never gotten it stuck on anything. it's a releif because the tippy is a bit heay, but it not that heavy.

Personally i like a drop forward better than a remote. It evens out the wieght pretty well and helps alot.I have heard that remotes coil up sometimes and are a pain in the butt but some people think they are great. It all comes down to personal preference

:nod: All preference. Some people like drops, some people like remotes.

I've run drops and remotes, have to say I like the remote better. Gets weight off, especially when you have a warp also, and like the drop takes some length off. I have the steel braided remote, like it a bunch better than the coiled, yes I've tried both. Havn't had a prob in woods or speedball. Just get a good harness. Personally I like this redz pack (http://store.yahoo.com/actionvillage/040-7400.html) holds nice and snug with the included belt and add some suspenders...perfect

Remotes are usually around $30 and up.

Here are a bunch of remotes:

all depends on what you like.

The remote takes the tanks wieght off the gun. But then again I think the remote cord gets in the way. So I like drops. I can switch hands playing supair and stuff and not get tangled.

Depends on your playing style and the likes.
