it's possible, but requires replacing the gas-thru foregrip and other new parts since the fittings on the marker are metric. here's what you'd need (i've done this myself with my 3.0):

1. spyder vertical adapter (connects to where the stock foregrip screws into the marker)
2. either a new foregrip, x-chamber, or regulator... your choice. it would screw into the spyder vert adapter, and one of the macro line fittings would connect to it.
3. new bottom line asa. (if you were to use the stock asa, you'd have to use a metric-standard adapter for the macro fitting to connect to it, but that wouldn't leave you much space to connect to the new foregrip/xc/reg)
4. drop forward - optional, but if you decide to make the change, might as well add one. get a drop forward with an asa attached to it, and you don't have to get #3 above.

so as you can see, it can be done, but takes some extra $ and work then if the jt and spyder folks would have made things easy and used standard fittings!
