I have been thinking about getting a drop forward for a while now. For three reasons, one my marker seems to long. Also I think It will look more custom with a drop, and I want my marker to be more balanced. But I don’t know what to get. I don’t know what type of drop I need for my gun, and I know I will need a new line but what kind

You can use the same steel hose you are using now.  You will just need a 90* fitting that your paintball proshop should have.  You will also need some tephlon tape so air wont leak through the threads.  You can find that at a hardware store.

As the for the dropfoward.  Just go to http://www.countypaintball.com - www.countypaintball.com or http://www.paintballgear.com - www.paintballgear.com and look around to see which one you like.

Medium drops are best for a Tippmann. Anything longer and you are less effective. Go for a size similar to the CP flame drop or the ShockTech medium drop. Those are the best sizes.

Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts?

if you plan on using Co2 id stay with the braided steal...especially for woodsball cause the macro line could get cut possibly...get maco if you plan on using nitro and playing speedball.

The dont cut that easily that will will break in the woods.  Also You can use co2 on a macro line.  Also you can use Nitro with a steel braided hose.
