Check-It has done it again with its new Uni-mount On/Off System.  For the person who likes simplicity at its finest without having a drop-forward of any type.  Original version of this mount was screw in only, with this newer version created to take it to the next level of style, ease, and comfort.

Installation:

Mounts onto any standard bottomline configuration (2 s/s screws included).  The cage mounts onto the gun or drop forward and holds the On/Off securely with 4 set screws, and can be mounted with air fitting on either side. The On/Off adapter features knurled cap for easy turning and a bleed hole to release the air stored in the line to save your bottle o-rings from desctruction.  Average installation time: less than 5 minutes.

Conventional Use:

Uni-mount On/Off system can be used with either CO2 or High Pressure Systems no problem.  I have tested these systems using a 68ci screw-in Centerflag and Crossfire systems.  The only noticable difference not using a drop forward anymore is that you cradle the air system between your wrist and your sholder, rather than being able to pull the air system into your shoulder.  This allows a more snug fit of the marker and tank in your arm, especially when in small or crawling spots.

Pros:
- Affordable Quality, MSRP $49.95
- Compact & Lightweight
- Available in a variety of colors
- Easy to take apart to clean if necessary
- Can be switched to be used on either side
- Can be mounted on most existing drop forwards
- Degasses guns before tank removal, saving tank o-rings

Cons:
- Cap can unscrew and fall off when not pressured

Conclusion:

This is one of the best On/Offs on the market today, offering a quality product in a variety of colors and styles to the paintball consumer.  Afterall, everything is about custom now-a-days.  All screws are included for installation.  Check-It's Uni-mount On/Offs are available in Blue, Black, Silver, Green, and Red.  The cradles are available in Black or Chrome (extra $5).  Now for a limited time, on sale at paintballgateway.com for $39.95.
