um do you mean bottom line? a remote is a line from your marker to whatever you use which will probably be a co2 tank. note: the tank is usually on a little belt of some sort. and a bottomline is when you can screw the tank in so that it is running horizontilly. im tired. gotta sleep. sorry i cant even think right now. later

It's really personal preference on where you want the tank, but if you go with the on-gun setup, (what I think you mean by bottomline) and are using CO2, be sure to get an anti-siphon tank. If you are using a remote, you don't have to get an anti-siphon for CO2 and can just use the savings for the remote and belt.

If you don't want a heavy gun get a remote. I'm super happy with my remote you can run faster and there is no bulky tank in your way. Oh ya I think you can only use remotes on Co2 so if you want to fire with Nitro then I think you are out of luck.

Nope...you can use nitro on HPA no prob. My friend has his bushy hooked up to a remote and we just played with it today. It ran great all day no probs. I have never heard of any thing that will work with co2 but not nitro as far as tank hook ups.

ya nitro will work through a remote too. i personally like my tank on gun, i feel like a hose would be very annoying while im trying to play. i also use the tank as a stock and shoulder it, helping me aim, it would be hard for me to snap shoot and aim with out.
