It was... But I really like it with no Drop... So much lighter, and
I've been messing around in my House, and its much easier to snap shot
with, and Tuck with...
The thing i like about the Drop was, that I could Stand-Shoot alot
easier, and Keep my gun straigt, and not very tilted and have a weird
angle of firing.

heh... lost dream...
NCC has been kind of... Absent latley... I'm kinda glad I didn't Some peoples markers have been there for over 4-months...
and the main reason I was going to send it to NCC was for the instalation of a Rufus Center Feed kit, but i MAY beable to do that locally.
Edit: as soon as they come back from where ever they are, and finish
there air-rams(if they do) I was ganna have a matrix board, new
air-ram, and possibly paint it up... but this wont be till next year or
so...
Right now, I'm kinda saving up for somthing... some people will like
it, and some wont, all the tourney players are ganna think its stupid,
and all the old school ballers are really ganna like it.

It looks alot cleaner. With so many expansions 98's can tend to look cluttered.

Keep the stainless line. You'll never ever have to worry about leaks or the line busting. With macro, you'll have to wiggle the line around when you air it up to get the line sealed. And you'd always be worried about the line busting.
Stainless can be a butt about getting it properly set up, but when you do, it is by far the best. If you don't like the looks of it for some reason, shrink wrap it.
oh btw, nice gun. It looks a whole lot better without the drop. And I'm sure it feels better too.

Wow, panda, I'll tell you, I just finished removing my universal drop
and mounting my on/off directly to the grip only a few minutes ago,
then I came on and saw your marker. I agree, it's definitely
lighter and more comfortable without. I also recommend cutting
down your feed neck on the egg... take off half of it and the egg sits
tight on the gun, its a lot more managable.

Almost forgot... saw this gun when I was looking at some tippmann
effect stuff... (NOTE: I am not the seller, and I'm not trying to help
the seller, but this gun is just so hot that you all had to see it)

Yea with that long of a drop you did have, you cant rest your tank anywhere, and it puts your wrist in a bad situation if you try to pull you gun in to far.

^ha... that on my "when I get money I'll buy one" list...
Read the ole' Sigaroo to find my next thing...
instead of taking a leap forward in speed, I'm taking a dramatic steb
back... I'm ganna try and learn to use Speed, and mobility, instead of
ropes...
Then after about a year using the ole' pumparoo, I'll grab a new DM5000, and will be a Demi-God with it. 
also as I look at it, the pump will pay for its self, instead of
blowing $70 at the Field, I'll spend maybe $30, and if I go enough the
pump will end up paying for its self, and Also I will gain skill like
non-other... so really... what do I got to loose other then bps?

You've obviously never met a "good" pump player, they can sometimes make some of the best players look like a Joke.
