It looks nice but i don't think you need 2 tanks when you are not shooting that much paint.

Well, My (current) Phantom setup is complete... excited to be playin with it next Sunday, 10/31... it shall be good.  I would have takin pics of it outside... however, it is cloudy/rainy outside... so bah.  Anyway... My response to the people who ask me "why do I play pump?  (Besides the fact I just prefer to save a couple hundred bucks in paint and work on "aiming...") Heh...

not diggin the duel tanks, but to each his own. How do you like the undercocking? My friend has been talking about getting one and I was just wondering your oppinion on the smoothness and feel compared to the stock pump. I saw this on some pump forum lately, but I can't remember which one.

  Well, when I first installed it, it was a little stiff, but that was to be expected.  Just testing it out by dry firing it really got the pump stroke much smoother.  I haven't played with it in a game yet, but I will at Skirmish this Sunday, 10/31.  For some reason I really had a thing for the undercocking pump handles that Phantom's hand... and the stock pump on my phantom, although it is a little bit lighter and has a nice feel to it, it would sometimes get caught on the lip of my BOA barrel.  Obviously, the undercocking pump eliminates this problem.  It definitely feels much more solid (extra metal/weight will do that), but I enjoy the added weight to the marker.  It is definitley more solid (a little heavier, but well balanced), and the pump stroke is very smooth after I have dry fired it a few times.  I will tell you how it performs on the field this weekend(!)    Hope some of this helped.

  Paintball stores, paintball orderlines (who carry CCI products)... and of course, from www.phantomonline.com - directly from Mike Cassidy himself.

Can an ASA be mounted vertically between the trigger gaurd and the pump handle adapter?
If you could do that it would look sick with a verticle 12gram quick changer.

 It certainly feel pretty different at first... but then again, to have a bottle mounted horizontaly on a marker is not too new for me because I always have a completely stock VM-68.  And also, like I think I mentioned before, I honestly prefer to add some weight to the marker - makes it feel more solid, etc.  But if I am playing a stock game or a speedball game with it (where there is limited room behidn bunker), I will most likely just use one tank and just plug up the 2nd CA adapter.

You should try two 12 grams on it, that would make it light.
