I can not see what is wrong with putting a drop on a gun, If that is what he wants to do and it feels comfortable its his choice !

At the end of the day if every one had the same gun the same clothes same masks it would be boring out there am i correct ?
Thanks man! :)
Its just that my etek has an eclipse drop on it and it feels a lot more comfortable to hold. Thats why i asked this question in the first place for the mini...

Thanks for any sensible replys, Rob

In my opinion mate stick with your eteck much better than the mini or buy a ego 5 6 7 or 8 if you had the dosh.

the reason people don't use drops is because they feck up your hold on the gun, and stop you from playing tight.

As you can see from your avatar, your elbow is poking out because you cant tuck it under the tank. and when you start to play sup air, you start to realise, just an extra inch out means a lot. Plus they add height to your setup.

people are just trying to help, not take the piss btw

yeah, but thats just how drops work, they drop the bottle, and move it forward. They mess up a lot of beginners, because they think it give's them a tighter profile, it just aint so.

i only know of one pro player that use's one (a guy off Ironmen), so many pro's cant be wrong
