Is it ok to turn my drop backward so my tank is under my reg?

Yeah, it'll work fine, but the gun may become front heavy.

Why not, but why would you want to? You could just get a long cradle and it would be almost the same thing.

And why the hell would I use a stock playing speedball, with a cocker. You know how bad a stock looks on a cocker? I'm thinking that I could hold my gun closer to me this way. Not farther out.

Try it out and see how it is. I gotta warn you though, be prepared for some fuzzy looks from people at the field.

Well the first time I went and played (like with a rental, and like a couple years ago), I saw this and now I want to try it. If you think about it I would look kinda cool, like that one gun of off Stargate SG-1.

And reversing a drop would make it real front heavy.

All its going to do is make the marker hard to snap shoot w/, make the marker front heavy, and make the marker taller (compared to a unimount or something along those lines)....

Nevermind you've all convinced me out of it.

It's really not that crazy.

I have one guy on my Team that runs a DYE airport on his marker backwards. It feels GREAT, with a 68 tank.

Shoulders well, and helps keep a low "side profile".

It's kind of a unimount with a little extra.

Don't laugh til you tried it, is my motto.
