Tell me what you guys think. Thank You.

Can you even use the grip with that mag being so close? I don't like it at all(the clip i mean) its too long and the angle that it comes out at is kind of off. other than that though it looks pretty good.

ya i can use the grip, i actually like how it works out for me because i just curl my fingers around the grip and pretty much lay my palm and wrist on the mag and it feels real comfortable.

my close quarters marker could either be considered my phantom(beautiful at close ranges). theres no point in getting a big marker and putting cosmetics(target space) on it and then taking off the barrel to call it close quarters. your going to have no accuracy and not going to be very functional for any other use.  my phantom and droid though, they shoot just as far as any other marker, and are both small, light and accurate, making them perfect for all paintball situations.

its easy to be famous, just set yourself on fire

Yeah... somehting like BT did on the Delta. the mag looks very nice and you can remove the clip. Downside is that you can just install it where the front grip goes, not over the gas line and personally I hate that empty space

Looks like it is off to a good start. That being said, what about it makes it CQB exactly? That usually implies a weapon, or in this case a marker, that is specifically modified or designed for close-quarters work (typically, but not limited to: shortened barrel, collapsible/folding stock, some sort of eye-relief optic, etc.), as opposed to the large solid stock and a long barrel with open sights that you are running?

It's nice! But it would have kicked butt if you have had gotten your MP5 mag from RAP4 because it looks much better and it's only $35! I just updated my Mp5, you can check it out!

It's ok, but it's not CQB.  (Refer to Dustin's post for reasons.)
