|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Chrome really looks great
Balances marker very nicely
Sturdy and does not fee like it will bend or break |
|
| Weaknesses: |
A little on the heavy side (but I don't see how that is avoidable considering the flames add much more mass than a normal drop forward |
|
| Conclusion: |
When it comes to form versus function, the flame drop forward meets both agruments. My aucotocker has plenty of chrome and nickel so it is already heavy in nature. This drop forward is heavy so beware if you are trying to achieve a light weight marker. It does balance out the weight, but it also adds quite a bit more as well. |

PMI drop, some stock spyder drops, and psycho ballistics. These were all good products, but the custom products flame drop seemed to be the best in terms of size and balance for me. Best I've used! |

Some fore grip that I can't remember the name of.....
Ricochet 2K
68/4500 fiber wrapped Centerflag HPA Tank |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Everything! First off, it does what it is supposed to do. It moves your tank foward and down, and it does it well Secondly, It looks good while doing its job. Also, it is incredibly sturdy and strong. Combine this with the Custom Products on/off asa and you will have an awesome combination. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Nothing that I can think of/have noticed. Some people may complain about the price, but it is of incredibly quality. Also, in paintball, you get what you pay for. |
|
| Review: |
I have never had a problem with this product. Superior craftsmanship, excellent customer service, and great looks make this product a winner. Nothing bad at all, everything is good. I use a 68/4500 tank and a 20 ounce on this product. Both of these feel perfectly balanced. The drop does not weight down the marder, or your arms at all. Highly recommended. Only drop forward I will ever use again. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you have the cash, and need a drop forward, this is the product for you. Go out and buy it, and have an awesome time playing. |

| Review: |
Strength:
Looks- this thing is so kick but lookin.
durability-you could drop this of an apartment building, an it might, i mean might, scratch
Intimidation factor- this thing just changes the whole look of ur gun, i mean wow i love it
It does its job, holds the bottle down an makes the gun nice an compact
Weaknesses(if u could call them that)
Well, it looks so cool, people wanna use ure gun, so it gets annoying
it is a little heavy, but its still pretty light, for its size, but not noticible when its on ur gun.
althought the closest thing this gun has thats bad, is that the screws it came with were too long, but i just went to the nearest hardware store, an they gave me the right screws
|
|
| Conclusion: |
This thing is just so cool, i mean: looks, durability
just one kick but thing i wish i could give it more than a ten, cause i love it!
You may think its a little expensive, but just ask for it as a stocking stuffer,
you wont regret it! i promise!! |

| Review: |
I recently got this drop because I did not like the chrome one that was the stock spyder one, so i went to the paintball field to see what the pro shop had. The moment I saw it I liked it, but the price was pretty high, so after a few games I went back and the guy said he would give me a discount, so I gladly bought it. WOW! what a difference from that ugly angled one that was on my gun before. My tank was now in a comfortable position and it actually seemed to reduce kick. I am very happy with this product, plus it looks pretty Tubular on my gun. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy it cause its good. Plus it makes your gun look mondo cool. |

| Review: |
I have this CP falme drop on my impy and well it does wut a drop does. It matches the colour of my gun.. black because colours are more? I dont know why colours are more on a impy but they are. Mine was free because it had the holes intended for a spyder marker but all i did was drill some new ones and it works fine. It looks good u no with the flames and all. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Go for it. |

| Review: |
I really like this drop forward. I've heard the bigger the drop forward the bigger the Newb. The guy at the shop I go to tried to talk me out of it. I went for it anyway and I am very happy about it. It gives my Intimidator much better balance and gets the tank out of the way. I have a 50 inch chest and large arms so the tank was a bit difficult to maveuver around with a perfect drop on the gun. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would definitely buy this product. It also looks great and matches the color scheme of my blue to black fade Intimidator. |

| Review: |
I got this drop because my tank was making my whole marker unbalanced. Well, overall I am pleased with it except for the fact that my tank is fairly short to start with, so it makes it awkward to shoot beacuse my face is literally touching my beavertail when I use the tank like a stock to steady my aim. It also makes it so I can't shoot as fast as I used to because my arm/hand comes up at an unnatural angle, thus pulling the trugger down. Please note that this would probably be fine if your tank wasn't a stubby like mine, or if you had an E-frame on your gun.
The drop itsself is of great quality, but just doesn't fit my application like I had hoped. |
|
| Conclusion: |
The drop itsself is of great quality, but just doesn't fit my application like I had hoped. If you have a longer(not a stubby) tank or an E-frame on your gun it would probably be fine.
I'll give it a 7 because it will work for some people but just didn't for me. |

| Review: |
This is a good looking drop, But even though I said price, I inform you all drop forwards are Xpensive. Not much to say but all I have to say is that I use it a lot and was given a nickname "Sniper Flamethrower" even though my gun is blue... |
|
| Conclusion: |
All in all this drop forward is nice and is made very good. |
