My gun is far too long now, 16" barrel with a bottom line 20 oz CO2 tank. I want to upgrade with a df or a remote, what would you recommend. *note I can get a 4+1 pack for $20 w/tubes

I love the feel of a drop forward. It adds to the look of ur gun as well as centering the weight and allowing for a more compact look. Remotes r nice, but ur talkin a minimum of $50 for a coiled remote and 4+1 pack. U can buy pretty much ne dropforward of choice for that much.

I have a remote and it gets annoying when you set your gun down and run off forgetting you are hooked up to your gun and it falls dropping half of the contents of your hopper. Having your bottle on gun simplifies things alot. My field has a safety area with no guns allowed and it was a pain having to take off my pack to go into the safety area. Quick disconnects are litterally impossible to actually disconnect so i reccomend the drop forward. Like i said it just simplifies things.
