i want to take my GTA double trigger and make it into a stick/blade trigger. What should i use to file it down? Will a regular medal file work or should i use some different kind of file? thanks ------------- i hate paintball |

I would use metal. but I think it would be too thin and would snap.

i personally would dremel it then sand some down. (when using the dremel save some room for sanding it down). when it's sanded down, use the steel wool. it should turn out smooth and not take as long as just using sandpaper and steel wool. it'd also be more fun with the dremel.

Go with the Dremel. It will save you time, just make sur you know how much you want to take off with it. Then use sandpaper or steel wool as everyone else said to get it smooth. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

There was a thread on model98 that showed how to make a pimp tite
one... but the site is down for now so ill summerize it. Basicly
you take your stock trigger and cut the bottom of it off where it ends,
then drill a hole and stick a piece of metal up there. wala, you
now have a stick trigger.
