That is EXACTLY the number of shots one should get out of a tank that size. Contrary to popular believe, HPA tanks get less shot per volume than CO2. One cubic inch of HPA will get less shots than one cubic inch of CO2.
How big of a drop do you want? I have a CIP Super Speedy drop and love it. Comes with an ASA (built in) and a gauge port. -------------

| Custom Products, Pricey, but they work great, IMO the on/off ASA is the best. |

Purely cosmetic...but those drops went out of style about a year and a half ago. -------------

I like drops on some guns. I have a shocktech drop on my old 98 and it is so much more comfortable then without out the drop. It depends on the gun and which drop you are looking at. |

drops were originally meant to balance a gun, so: the longer guns like spyders and tippys seem more comfy with a drop to balance them. the higher end guns, such as cockers and most electros, are built smaller and a drop is more or less obsolete. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"
