| Review: |
It is a great looking and easy adjustable beavertail. It does its job well. Not much more I can say about it, except it looks good to me, and works on my setup just fine. Yeah, it'sa beavertail, it looks awesome, and is easily adjusted, that's it. So to make 100 Words or whatever it is. Buy this product you will be pleased. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy one, don't buy one, I love mine either way. It's a beavertail, how much can I possibly write about it. |

| Strengths: |
LOOKS!!! It's so darn sweet looking. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Comes loose sometimes.
Very short. |
|
| Review: |
Get this beavertail if you are a cosmetic freak, it totaly makes your cocker looks 10 times better.
Only small problems are it comes loose sometimes and it's pretty short, meaning, if it was any shorter the cocking rod would hit the darn thing. And also, it's pretty pricey, only buy if you've got spare change :) |
|
| Conclusion: |
Get it if you have extra money to spend. It'll make your gun look snazzier. |

the ans was chunky and had sharp edges, i worried too much about scratching my mask
the kapp beavertail is smooth and sleek |

| Marker Setup: |

|
|
|
| Strengths: |
sexy, and sleek, small compact |
|
| Weaknesses: |
if it isnt screwed in properly you risk it wobbling and misaligning |
|
| Review: |
this beavertail is pure sexy'ness
soon as i saw it i bought it on the spot
i was worried about my chunky/boxy ans beavertail scratching my lens on my mask if i hit it, and with the Kapp beavertail, its rounded edges and smooth design totally eliminates this posibility
it made my autococker look so much sleeker and thinner, compared to my squarish ans beavertail |
|
| Conclusion: |
this beavertail looks so awesome on an autococker and is especially important for looks when everyone always looks at the back block moving back and forth, all the attention is near the back of the gun, where the beavertail is |

WGP Beavertail |
|
| Marker Setup: |
2001 vertical feed Autococker, AKA Sidewinder reg, Tornado valve, Superfly bolt, Dye boomstick, 4500 psi Armageddon, Shocktech front reg and ram, WGP STO 3-way. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Stainless steel rod is very strong
Matching colors on the ring and attachment block look great
Low profile, stylish |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Rotates about its axis, no matter how tight you screw it into the frame
(I fixed this by drilling and tapping a set screw into the part of the beavertail that faces the back of the grip frame, and then drilling a small indent into the back of the grip frame so that the set screw protrudes into the hole. Now its rock solid). |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great product, much better looking than the conventional beavetail. Satinless steel rod makes it more durable as well. After the mod I made on it, I think its perfect, but out of the box with its twisting problem, I'd have to rate to an 8. |

| Review: |
Well, where do I begin... Hmm... I'ts a beavertail (I think I have already said that). It is damn sexy (IMHO), sturdy... Hmm... That is about all you can ask for from a beavertail. It does a great job of keeping the back block from hitting my mask. I guess that it makes my marker look better (like that helps my hit ratio). I like it and got it for a good price. And that is all that matters. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you like it, buy it. |

|
| Review: |
Well this beavertail is probably one of the best looking beavertails, in my opinion. I think KAPP did a great job with this beavertail. My only beef is that the pieces come apart sometime due to weak loctite. I believe this is probably the best beavertail you can get as far as looks are concerned. |
|
| Conclusion: |
A good beavertail with good looks, and nothing else. No performance upgrade whatsoever, but it's worth it. |

| Review: |
The anodizing is nice. its has an awesome appearance, small and light
the bad part is that i mounted it and the hole where the cocking rod is supposed to go is to high up so i just tewisted it to the side. there is nothing else that need to be said, i hope this is enough words. |
|
| Conclusion: |
great looking, awesome idea but i dont kno what to do about it being too tall |

The stock beaver tail. Well im a front player and the wgp got in my way and the kapp is perfect and compact doesnt get in my way. |
|
| Marker Setup: |
02' cocker, all american 12" barrel, kapp f/x beaver and twisted cocking rod, ricochet 2k and a whole lot more upgrades |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Well, its very compact doesnt get in the way and great for a front player. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
There really arnt any you need long allen wrench for ajusting volacity. |
|
| Review: |
This is a great upgrade if your a front player and dont like the bulkiness of the stock. Its not really an expensive beaver tail I think i spent $20 I would suggest getting this to any one because you'll be close to your gun and it doesnt get in the way at all everyone on my team is getting this beaver tail because i was the genny pig and told them it was great so now the all have considered it. Like i said the only bad thing is you'll need a long allen wrench to ajust volacity. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Just spend the $20 and get it, you might not think its much of an upgrade but i felt a difference and recommend it 100%. |

| Review: |
It's a Beaver tail, it doesnt have much to do. It is nice looking but it moves around a lot and it's not loctite friendly. I wish it had a better and richer annoe job. It goes good with the twisted cocking rod from Kapp. They go hand in Hand. it's not a big thing though, like i said it's only a Beaver tail. |
|
| Conclusion: |
nice, but is too much money for a b. tail. After all it's only looks but this thing doesnt really even do that when it's bent all over the place. |

| Strengths: |
This is a great beavertail. It gets the job done and does it with style. It is a good shape and does not get in the way. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
For a beavertail it is a little expensive, it comes loose quite often, but I guess that is true with all beavertails. Just be sure to screw it in really tight. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I think this is a good investment for a person looking to upgrade their gun. I would suggest that you wait until you have all the other upgrades before you spend $20 or $30 on a beavetail though. It does add a lot of style to your gun, however. |
