maybe... its a little sloppy.  took a little too much off on one part.

edit* i also just picked up a spring kit.  the stock spring is looking a little worn so it cant hurt  but the kit includes trigger pull springs to make it lighter on me.

I recommend not messing with the trigger springs of the earlier Tippmann markers*.  For some reason they seem more sensitive to this type of modding than the 98's and newer markers.  In fact, if I remember correctly, the 68 Carbine I had came with specific instructions in the manual to not alter the trigger spring.  (Instructions that I ignored and ended up having to get a new sear to go with the original trigger spring when I put it back in.)

*In other words; replace as opposed to upgrade.

its the maddman spring kit.  if it feels off at all i will just put the stock ones back in it.  i just want a lighter pull for it.

put the maddman spring in.  it would be too light for the sear b/c it wouldnt bring it back ito position fast enough but the one for the trigger is about 1lb compared to the 9lb pull.  it is ridiculously light (those are estimates on my own feel of it)
