Hi all,

I recently purchased a 98 custom from a friend, and it has a response trigger on it. When i gassed it up, I noticed it had a leak. (which i later found out was just a bad o-ring.)

When I was putting the gun back together, I must have over-tightened one of the screws (shown in picture, sorry i dont know what the name of it is)

This there was no evidence that this piece broke off, so i figured the missing screw/adjuster held it into place.

After searching on the internet for a couple days I have found no luck. I was wondering if there was some sort of r/t repair kit, or part I could order directly from tippman. (there was also some sort of adjuster that came off also). I've also posted a picture of the only part I think i need. I am really hoping I dont have to order a whole new RT kit!

 Thanks in advance.

p.s. Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures.

call tippmann and ask them for a new flow controll, if they won't give you one go to http://www.clippard.com - www.clippard.com and buy one.

Thanks guys,

I appreciate it very much.

Also, does it just screw right into the gun? ( i know it screws into the micro line)

(if you couldnt tell, i didnt recieve instructions for the rt when i bought it... so i had no idea what it was called :-x)

Tippmann has instruction manuals on their site, I believe tippmannparts.com may have some as well.

Read up and put it together!!  If you still can get it right, we will be here for you!
