ive always wanted to move the tank forward but not down... so what if you made a super skinny 20oz tank thats long instead of being fat. Then it would feel as if you wernt playing with a tank and it would be totally balanced.

it would still "feel" like you were playing with a tank because you would still have the 20oz of co2 in the tank...if you want to feel like you arent playing with a tank, just get a remote line or a cheap brass eagle pump...
If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.

I agree with the others, if you want a balanced gun, just go for a remote. the costs of getting someone who actually knows what they are doing to make a super skinny 20 oz co2 tank would be VERY high

Just flip the tank over. Plus the thing might actually be even heavier due to how large the tank would have to be.

now why would you have to use all that pipe to move the tank forward.  why not just turn the tank around?
