1)- buy a fiber wrapped tank. 2)- go to a gym 3)- work out 4)- Deal with it. The egg is one of the lightest hoppers out there, but its unbalanced. |

I think its funny cause you have the same Ion set up as my friend (mr. .com) and I have and A-5 w/ the stuff in my sig. He too complains about the weight and mine is lighter. Halos are lighter than eggys arent they? try that or get the carbon fiber tank. Thats pretty much all you can do now. ------------- My guns name is Mr. Max in remembrance of my dog that got hit by a car: Tippmann A-5 Ricochet R-5 JCS double Trigger Tippmann E-Grip Flatline Barrel Do you have the need for speed? |

fiber wraped tank is the only thing that will save you on weight.

OR, get a +1 harness and a remote and the weight will be on your back instead of in your hands ------------- PFC Murdock 307th FSC 1st BDE 82nd Airborne Division HOOOOOOOOAAAAHHHHH!!!!! |
