Tippmann A-5

Finally got the response trigger installed onto my Tippmann A-5...

Hard to see from this picture, OK impossible really. The RT just adds a small metal cylinder behind the trigger.

I took lots of pictures of the response trigger installation, so I'll try to post a howto soon...

The semi-automatic rate of fire (with a fast trigger finger) was 4 to 6 rounds per second. I'll be taking my A-5 out during lunch this week to a safe testing area to tune it up.

Installing the RT requires completely taking it apart and putting it back together. Altogether it took about 90 minutes, I also snapped about 30 digital pictures so that probably slowed things down a little.

I dry fired it after the RT install (with the RT set to the lowest position) and it was a very nice 4-6 rounds per second, with an absolutely top-notch trigger feeling. That's why they call it a "response trigger".
