| Strengths: |
It balances out your gun pretty well |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Doesnt add to your guns looks really |
|
| Review: |
Well it drops your tank forward therefore helping to balance out your gun. Not much eles to say. Doesnt add to looks to much but it does what its supposed to do, not really a bad price either so cant complain on that. Although it really doesnt look to bad on a black gun but other than that it really wont work well color wise on others. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you want to further balance out your gun and distribute the weight of your gun so its more centered get this. but dont buy this for looks. |

| Review: |
I got one of these a little while back and just put it on my marker. The clearance between tank and gun is wide enough to give a 20oz tank about 3" of space from the gun. It doesn't put the tank in too far which is a minor drawback, but it doesn't advertise to do so. It is a no frills drop forward, which is to my liking (hence my purchase of it). |
|
| Conclusion: |
If your marker is a bit too long for your taste and you don't wnat a bright red D/F, get one of these. |

| Review: |
This is an excelent product. my one complaint with other drop forwards is that it brings the tank to far down (closer to the ground) therefore if you want to shoulder the gun properly, the gun will be higher making ur overall profile higher and making snap shooting over the tops of bunkers harder, because there is more of urself exposed.But with this i have not had this problem it brings the tank in farther without making the overall profile of the gun to tall. Yes i know one point of a drop forward is to "DROP" the tank and if ur wondering why would u buy a drop if u didnt like the whole "drop" part of a drop forward, well i couldnt afford a new unimount or rail, way to much money. |
|
| Conclusion: |
it is a great product and for the price it is an excellent buy i got mine for 10$:D |

| Review: |
It's a nice drop forward, it looks nice, probably the nicest looking drop forward around. It's also very strong, it doesn't scratch or bend or anything. It beats the pants off any custom-super-x-pants... products especially any of those freakin flame drops! Man alive do I hate those things! Talk about being a newb... I'd take 1 of these over 50 of those, and even if they gave me 50 of them, I'd burn them or something... |
|
| Conclusion: |
Uhh... ...anyways this is a good drop, it gets the job done? |

| Review: |
I like this drop fowar d alot. I have a 2004 Horizontal Max Flo and i feel that it puts the tank in a great position. Unfortunatley when i bought it, it did not come with the Smart Parts Jewel that is shown in the picture which I thought looks cool. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you are in need of a drop foward that keeps you up close and personal with your tank then this is just right for you. |

| Review: |
This is the perfect size drop. I use this with a 45/4500 Max-flow and it's awesome. I couldn't really ask for more. It holds my tank where I want the tank and keeps it there. Does everyhting I need it to do. Perfect size for a 45 or 68 I think. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Awesome dropforward. I use this with a 45/4500 and it puts the tank at a perfect spot I think. |

pmi drop, not too many different drop forwards... |
|
| Marker Setup: |
2002 standard feed autococker w/ dye stickies, smart parts drop forward, 12 volt revvy, and a 20 oz co2 tank |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
This product makes a perfect drop forward for the 2002 cockers... It doesn't really look like much but it drops 47 and 68 ci nitro tanks perfect, and also 20 oz co2 tanks. It is not too big, but still keeps my gun compact, and that means a lot for a front player like me. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Nothing bad I have seen except the fact I can't get an on off for it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
It's a good product but they should come out with a on off asa for it. Other tahn that it is great. |

|
| Strengths: |
it makes the tank go forward alot |
|
| Weaknesses: |
well.. for wider tanks, it wont fit becuase tank gets jammed up on the bottom of the gun.. it needs to drop a bit more to solve this problem |
|
| Conclusion: |
i think i would get a new drop forawrd because if u get a big tank, it wont fit.. just get a longer drop |
