There is an engineering principle that says if you do not get good enough answers, ask better questions. Think this may be the case here. I think if you watch your brother more closely, see what moves he has problems with, how the problem occurs, then the answer will become self evident to you.

For example, if he is an 8 year old who likes to run and shoot in a standing possition, and using a Custom 98 with your tank on the original bottom line, he's probably going to have two problems. 1) The gun at the shoulder would probably be to long for him, resulting in supporting all the weight and doing all the aiming all with one hand. 2) Requires moving his hand to far forward for his body to get any leverage which will lower his endurance.

A solution in that case would be to get a forward (maybe without a drop) assembly for the tank. This move the foregrip closer to his body so that his off hand could help more. It would also move the center of gravity closer to his body so that he has more leverage.

If the movement problems he is having is that at a 16 yaer old he is not able to crawl effectively in the woods, what I just said me be exactly the wrong thing to do. His mask may run into the gun and cause all sorts of problems handling the gun when prone.

Let us know if I'm missing a point on that.

: I got my younger brother a 20oz tank and he seems to be having trouble moving around with it. Would it be a good investment to get him a remote system. If so wich one would you recommend?
