You can get a spyder verticle asa, and put that ont the valve. May need another fitting, I forget.

That will put the bottle at a true 90*.

My only question, is why do you want a vertical bottle? Or is it just a matter of personal preference?
Ref: I want a nice clean game
player: but it's paintball!

in this paintball book i had, the guys had vertical bottles on what im sure were automags.  I liked the look and stuff so i decided i'd like to do that to my gun.  Also im looking into a stock and figured i should have a vertical bottle there.  I would do remote line but my JT harness is a speedpod one and doesnt have room for a bottle.  And it looks cool.  So could i just get the vertical adapter and put my bottle in right away?

Darth Sicetus has a verticle bottle in his VA. He says he uses it as a monopod and likes the way it distributes the weight. He also has a flatline and uses the shroud as a handguard. I, personally, think it makes the gun WAY to heavy in the front, but I guess its personal preference.
Chuck Norris doesnt read books, he stares them down untill he gets the information he wants.
