An ASA is a air source adaptor- anywhere you can attach a tank or a device with the same threads as a tank, like an expansion or regulator.
Tippmanns have one normally, under the grip. To have the vertical one in the grip you have to install a vertical adaptor. This allows you to either mount the tank vertical, or add an inline regulator or your expansion.
Reasons to mount the tank in the vertical position would be for balance, or to ensure that only gas CO2 gets into the marker, as the liquid would stay near the bottom of the marker. Or you can have a siphon tank mounted vertical to ensure you get nothing except liquid.
