how much co2 or hpa do you have left?? that's what a marker does when it's getting empty. for the stock was it supposed to fit the a5? if so you will need to get ahold of the mfr to let them know you are having problems

Isn't that what the R-T is for. Mine does that same thing. Don't worry, when the tank is low on air it just runs, its useless anyways because the cyclone feed stops working.

My Set-Up:
A-5 w/ Reponse Trigger
16" DYE Boomstick
32 Degrees Expansion Chamber

It's all I need for the rec ball I play once or twice a month.

I had the same problem today man. I had to replace all the 0-rings and the hammer. It fixed it. But you should have it looked at by someone who knows the tippmann's. My friends dad got mine working again but after i dropped like $40 in parts.


And yes the R-T is supposed to make you shoot rapid fire. Maybe 8 bps. But not this rapid shooting. If it's what happened to me, you cock it and shoot and take your finger off the trigger, it shoots for a while at a much higher rate of speed then any autococker can do. Then stops. Even with a full tank of C02.

Like I said, replace the o-rings and check your hammer. It fixed my problems. What happened was the 'pin' that resets the trigger on the R-T was pushing out to far, to the point where the trigger rests. So it constantly fires. That might not make sense. But someone might know what i'm talking about.

It's easy if you got the tools. It takes three dif size allen wrenches, just work in a clean air, and because careful because some of the springs on the inside go flying when take the halves apart, especially the tombstone spring.

Actually I tried to install the RT myself and when I went into the shop yesterday I found out I must have installed it wrong. So thats why it was doing that.

bigballer- I have a Dye BoomStick and I play woods ball. My gun details are in my sig.
