This ASA use what we call "System Bleed" and "Virtual Resistance" Due to the fact that it has virtually no resistance at all while turning it on or off. System Bleed will bleed all the air from your tanks lines allowing you to easily remove your tank after degass.

Sp Ion, CP on/off, Full Freak, Membrane mod, more to come
Strengths:
Easy to turn, good looks(opinion)
Weaknesses:
Required longer screws, looks(a bit long maybe), price
Review:
I bought it not too long ago and i am very happy with the purchase.
It required some longer screws which i bought up at lowes and then i was set. It is very easy to turn just as everyone mentions and i like the looks but i could see why one might say it is a bit large/bulky. The price is a little bit steep but after all i think it is worth it..There are a lot of great colors out there too...
Conclusion:
Id reccomend it to anyone willing to spend the extra to get a good quality product
this is a great on off. it is very easy to turn and has a bleed valve and stuff. its very good quality just like CP. the only problem i have with it is it is very long. with it on your gun it is like having a duckbill asa. my freind has a very short mac dev tank, so it feeld fine with his tank. but if you use a full size crossfire, the setup is very long. as you can see, teh tank threads are about 1 inch behind where it is mounted on the grip frame. for this, i think the CP rail is better.
Conclusion:
this is great, but i feel that the CP rail gives you more options.

Review:
In terms of how easy it is to gas, and degas your gun, this on/off (along with the rail version) completely owns every other on/off on the market. If that's what you're looking for, you're done looking, buy an 05 CP on/off.
You can quite literally gas your gun up with one finger, and degas it with one finger. It also purges the extra gas in the lines, so you don't need to take an extra ten shots or w/e to completely degas your setup.
Tank position is great, but that's a preference thing. This particular on/off puts the tank back far and close to the gun, which is how I like it.
The only problem I've heard is, that I once accidentally degassed the gun without noticing it. Luckily I was just fooling around in my backyard... which is the reason I had my hand anywhere near it in the first place, I never support my gun from the bottom of my trigger frame in a real game, so it's not that big of a deal.

Review:
This direct mount is a top of the line product. Once you screw this onto the bottom of your marker, it stays there! The on/off is easy to turn on or off without fighting it. After use, the air bleed lets you de-gas without air staying in your marker. It stands up to abuse very well. Now, when you get this, you will need to plug the extra hole with a set screw plug. You can find these easliy at your hardware stores or big stores such as Home depot or Lowes.
Conclusion:
This is the best direct mount for the person looking for a good shoulder to tank feel. Excellent. I give it a 9 because my direct mount didn't come with a plug for the extra hole.
