E-grips have electronics so if your gun gets wet your screwed.$100 (or how ever much an e-grip costs) down the drain!R/T uses the excess gas from your gun.The gas has to have some place to go.Plus with the super R/T hoses and tuning, an R/T is faster.

get the e-grip

reasons

  • different firing modes
  • shoot faster
  • legal as opposed to r/ts (in tourneys and at some local fields)

hey i just made the decision to buy an e grip, i have a RT, i think it would be good to have both, in case u feel like switching or weathering conditions should suggest it. It never hurts to have both.

properly tuned "Super RT" will shoot faster than an Egrip... (standard E-grip has a limit) Not that speed is the most important factor... Although to some it is... Like it makes them a better player... They wish...

That's up to you. If you like your R/T, stick with it. If you want a change, get the E-Grip.

You have all the firing modes with the r/t's full auto like feel.

  • shoot faster

R/T shoots faster than the egrip....unless you was the egrip.

  • legal as opposed to r/ts (in tourneys and at some local fields)

The r/t works in some places.

They are good for different uses. One is not generally better than the other. The Egrip is better for tournies and the RT is better for rec play. Choose the one for your style of play. It's as simple as that.

An egrip with a few trigger mods and a new board is fast and walkable.

R/T are legal- you wont want to buy an EGrip because

1) It cost to much

2)Its a pain switching the two

3) You already have a R/T and it is as good as if not better than an EGrip

Its like 19 more than the R/T. Yeah, that costs way too much...

2)Its a pain switching the two

Its actually fairly simple to anyone that knows anything about the workings of the marker

3) You already have a R/T and it is as good as if not better than an EGrip




Sure the Super R/T is faster than the stock E-Grip, but its modded. If you wanted to go modded than in that case the Was'd E-Grip is faster.

To whoever said you can get all the firing modes on teh R/T, you can't. Sure you may be able to get off a 3 or 6 round burst, but not with the speed or consistancy of the E-grip. Not to mention you can't go rebound (1 on pull and release)or turbo(basically ramping)
