Hey Fellow Sypder users I'm the new guy around here. Can anyone suggest a good dropfoward for a TL plus ( I'm running nitro presently) thanks

Seeing as how a small tank you have, I'll recommend something that doesn't move the tank very far forward. Try the Lapco drop forwards, or look into getting an adapter and the CP Flame drop forward. Many people think it looks all nice and all, but just as my opinion, looks kinda cheesy. :D

Lapco's look nice, as well as a Shocktech rail. Both around 30 bucks...

You will need an adapter for the Shocktech, and I think the adapters make the gun look stupid:)

Go for the lapco. Can be found at G3pb.com

Comes in black and chrome I believe.

PMI perfect drop forward is good, and what I use is a Northwest Paintball drop forward. It has a On/Off knob and you can get them 5" or 8" long. I use the 8" one and have a 68/3000psi tank on my TLplus. It balances it out perfectly. It also does not require you to get an adapter because it has both strait and staggered holes for your grip frame.

Good luck

I would recommend getting a tko or PMI perfect drop (they're basically the same). You can adjust them on whether you're comfortable with the tank all the way forward or back.

I wouldn't recommend the PMI Perfect, or the TKO as long as you use your tank. Seein gas how it's a 47CI, and your gun is rear cocking, getting a PMI perfect or TKO will keep the tank further forward than your cocking rod. Thus you have nothing to shoulder against.

Yep, go with what Hsuve said. The lapco one I posted is a very sleek looking drop, and it works great too:)

With a 47, it should be perfect.

Well I like my dropforward propped all the way forward. I think its pretty comfortable. But I forgot that you would have to buy an adapter. So get with lapco d/f.

at www.countypaintball.com search drop forwards and they have a few spyder compatible ones that are less than 30

How much do the lapco drop forwards run for in price?

They go for approximately around the $30 area...

Is there any more drop forwards that would be good for my gun setup or that may be of same quality but different price?
