Shocktech Long Drop

Strengths:
Moves the tank out of the way of the stock
Balance
Cheap
Weaknesses:
None it does what it is supposed to do
Review:
I got this drop for 25 dollars on actionvillage.com
The primary reason i got this was because of the Commando stock. The tank was in the way and i didn't want to pay the extra $ for the remote line and the harness plus the airthrough version of the stock.
This drop does what it is supposed to do and it does it well. The balance of the gun is very good now.
This drop looks a little too shiny in pics compared to the 98s color but it looks good.
**If you plan on using the stock 98 asa you will have to buy a 90* fitting because the hose is too short. You can pic one up at a car parts store for about a dollar. So its no problem.
I say get it. Its cheap and it does its job.
Conclusion:
I got this drop for the purpose of repositioning the tank to get it out of the way of my stock. It does that job perfectly.
I have to give it 10/10 because it does everything that I bought it for and nothing less.

Red Shocktec Drop
Strengths:
It drops down and forward, what more can I say?
Weaknesses:
Its a bit pricy for a small pice of metal
Review:
I got the largest drop they had so I can hold my marker tight to my body, and this does just that. I didnt get the asa with it b/c the store didnt have a red one, but I don't think I realy need it. This is a great drop, it is light and sturdy and my tank hasnet moved since I installed it. Its a little pricy, but Ill live

Weaknesses:
A great Drop
Doesn't come with mounting screws though
Review:
This drop comes very plain, and at first look, you say "why the heck did I just spend $35 on this!" But after studying the finish it is a very quality product. I love Shocktech and this just adds to the look of my gun, and has a great function also. I am very happy about my purchase of this.
Conclusion:
If you are looking for a good all around, simple drop that looks good, Get this.

5" drop forward from Shocktech
Response trigger (RT)
ViewLoader Revolution Hopper
9" steel braided hose
Strengths:
Makes gun compact
Weaknesses:
Screws won't stay in good
can't fit an HPA tank
Review:
It got this drop forward for $10 and I love it!!!
My Tippmann 98 Custom is now very compact beacsue i got the 5" drop
Now my tank fits well and i dont' need to be obstructed by it again
But the BIG problem is that the screws wont' stay in well with it. They become loose so my tank wiggles around so then i have to take off the take and screw the thing back into position.
Also, a very minor thing, an HPA tank will not fit witht he drop forward
Conclusion:
This drop forward is great if you're only using a CO2 tank
Actually nothing. This is the first drop forward I have ever bought.
Marker Setup:
A-5
Response Trigger
12 Inch J&J Ceramic Barrel
Shocktech Dropforward
68/4500 Pure Energy N2 Tank
Strengths:
Allows much easier movement.
Weaknesses:
Some people may not like the lenght of it.
Review:
This drop forward is the perfect size for me. When I first got my Nitro tank, it made the gun feel like it was twice as long. I went to my local paintball store to pick one up for $35. When I got home, I installed it (Very easy), took it outside to see what it was like, and boy was I pleased. It allows you to tuck your marker in close, but yet it's not so long that your tank is down to your knees.
Conclusion:
Looks awesome, makes your gun look awesome, only $35, buy it.

Strengths:
Cool.
Does its job
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
I got this for my old cocker so I could snap easier. Before it was way to long. Know it works good. I can switch hands easier so I don't have to worry about wasting time on the field. Now I am wasting fools every time I play.<End Loserness/>
Its a bit to shinny in the woods (Im picky like that)
Review:
Ive only used this on my dads a5. I like it because its shinny. It helps balance the gun out alot if you use a bigger tank like a 4500/68. Dont get this if you like to play in the front and need to be tight because its so big. But if your in the back and that does not really matter this is the drop foward for you.
Conclusion:
I would say that this is a well made drop foward and is worht the money if you need something big.

tippmann 98 custom, smart parts all american barrel, GTA double trig., smoke VL 12 v hopper, and shocktech large drop forward, i also bought an shocktech on/off valve.
Strengths:
- Looks!
- Durable!
- Low profile!
- With tippmann, you can use stock mounting bolts!
Weaknesses:
- The price
- Not for woodsball
- May not be able to use n2o
Review:
-this is an awesome asset to my marker! It gave it the edge that was missing before. plus with the drop forward it is ALOT easier to hold! before the co2 was sticking out and this part made the gun alot more comfortable! It has never shown any signs of bending or the paint never looked like it was about to come off. it is also very low profile. that is one less olace a ball can bust!
- the price with the on/off, i think, came to around $72. if u are a hard core paintball person (myself included) you spent alot of money just to buy the gun anyways, what is another 72 bucks?
- these drops are glossy, not for woodsball people.
- i know that my 20oz nearly misses the drop when i screw it on, large nitrous tanks may not be used if it is about 3 cm bigger than a 20 oz.
Conclusion:
i HIGHLY reccomend this product to people that play fairly often. newbies or people that play like once every 2 months dont really need this yet!
the large one is a fairly nice drop its a shame they didnt make a bigger one though! i gave it a 10 because this part i think is worth it!
