No you don't. And don't buy a drop. I have a unimount on my gun and if you want I can show pictures of my gun its perfectly balanced right where the trigger is. Which makes it the perfect wait distibution. I have 12 inch barrel and 68 tank. -------------

It will work fine off both, it will just work better if you
have the LP system. But as we've said, you dont need it, so don't bother if you dont want to. |

Nope you can just screw it right in. But it would be best to get a regulator. And a reminder, tippmanns run on about 800-850psi. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |
