    Posted: 15 August 2006 at 12:33pm
Im fairly new to paintball. I bought a used tippmann 98 custom a couple of months ago, and it's worked great. Recently, I bought a drop forward at a garage sale. The screw locations and such look a lot like this one: http://www.jeelectronics.de/catalog/images/32%20lightning%20 df.JPG When I went to attach it, I realised its going to take more than that. It looks like Im going to need another pair of screws, and this is the part Im having questions about, the air tube that connects from the co2 tank to the gun seems to need to be longer. So does anyone have any advise on where I can get longer tubes, or if they even exist? Or would it be better just to buy a better drop forward?

Any length air line is available. Virtually any paintball repair shop can provide them.

Now, cutting and pasting your "link" takes me to a German web site containing nothing about drop forwards. How is it possible for you to copy a web address and have it not come up as a link in your post.

why in the world would you buy a drop forward from a garage sale
NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.

First off, sorry for the bad link. Not sure how that happened..

I think the best reason was because it was brand new, and five bucks. When your a guy looking at very expensive colleges, drop forwards are on my low priority list.

And thanks sinisterNorth for the link.
