Is the tube welded at an angle or do you have to attach the filter at that angle to get it to fit? I'm thinking about getting G3s, but it looks jimmy rigged in pictures sometimes.

I had no problem with the G3. The tubes are bent at an angle like that. It fit perfect. One thing I can say is you kinda need to leave all the fittings loose and twist things around. Things will fall in place perfectly and then you tighten it all down
