| What kind of upgrades do you have already? Speedball or woodsball? What is your price range? Just answer those questions and I would be more than happy to help you. |

They are great. You can go from semi to full auto in less than a second, its all in how you pull the trigger.

| Yeah, r/t are great. For some reason, I cannot get my r/t working. It is really frustrating me!!! I tried sweet spotting it and nothing. Once in a while it will seem like a r/t and fire a few shots in a row but I turn the airflow adjustment screw and it goes back to semi. I have fired an A-5 with a working r/t though and I liked it a lot. |

don't they really use up the gas? ------------- A-5 R/T 32* X-chamber Evil Barrel Addapter 14'' PMI Razor 20 oz. & 9 oz. FUTURE ================ 72/3000 PMI HPA Double Trigger |

| No, they just use excess gas that your gun would waste anyways. Normally, it would just vent out of your gun. With the r/t, your gun uses that gas to move a piston that resets your trigger every time your shoot. With the right mods, you can't get this baby up to 20 bps. |

id go with the egrip myself for a few reasons. 1> more options egrip RT=pull the trigger it fires and let go it fires again Full auto 3 shot burst and single shot 2> easier to install attaches in seconds 3> don't have to worry about air leakage 4> easier to adjust your rate of fire in full auto mode 5> fields are starting to outlaw RTs more and more now, you can get away with the egrip RT though in most places. Drawbacks 1> eats up batteries pretty quickly 2> when you change out the battery you have to make sure it isnt in full auto mode or the thing will make your gun fire full auto the second you remove the grip until the battery is out, then start up again when you have the new one in.
Brand new its about 15 bucks more than the RT |

Wisconsin sucks then, because theyre starting to get all anal about RT dude. Was told to leave 2 fields without even the option of turning it off. And the adjusting the rate of fire in full auto is just the ROF radial swich. Easier in my opinion. And my Egrip must be defective because it shoots twice with one trigger pull in RT mode. Also on the second field the owner told me that Rts were starting to be banned on many fields. Either hes a liar, which is quite possably the case, or all the idiots around here are in league with one another, which is also quite possably the case. |
