Right now I have:

  • Respoce Trigger
  • Apache
  • Pen spring
  • Rilfe scope (I only use sometimes)

The Ups that I'm getting for christmas:

  • Female Palmers
  • 14" J&J
  • Nicklel plated LAPCO Foregrip
  • Black Dye Sticky
  • Rocket Cock 2

Where do I go from here? I want to do some mods, but all I can seem to find are pen spring and polished internals. I am strickly woodsball, so I want a consistant, quiet, durable and light gun, which I think I ahve accomplished. I run C02, and I don't think I want to change that, so don't tell me to get HPA. I'm still looking around for a good drop foward that suits my needs, but to no avail as of yet. Oh, and I'm thinking about givng my gun a dark green paintjob, which I think will look cool with the black grip and rocket cock and the chrome foregrip.

Thanks for your input.

yea the dark green paintjob would be good. And even though you say you dont want it I'm still gonna reccomend the HPA. better for your gun

Other than getting HPA, I'd stop. What you have right now (and listed future ups) seems to be great. I wouldn't throw any more $ into it.

a double trigger would make your rt easier to sweetspot. you could also get some anti-siphon tubes on your tanks. when you get a drop, you might want to get a stock for support. and why'd you get a chrome foregrip? the only thing that's gonna do is glare up and give away your position. i'd paint that too.

I've shot an RT with a DT before, and personally I like the single trigger over the DT.

If a stock comptable with the Rocket Cock 2?

The palmers should do a good enough job that you don't need to go to hpa. It's all preference but, since you play strictly woods you may consider a remote line over a drop. It's up to you, though. If you really want a woods/milsim look go with a stock and a remote line.

so you want to lighten your trigger?

  1. pen spring mod (go find a clicky pen, and take the spring out of it and cut it so that it is the same sizes as the stock: if the trigger does not feel lighter then stretch out the spring and cut it to the same size as the stock again. if you start to have double fire problems (shooting more then once on one pull) then the spring is too light< try again but try to do what you did before but lighter (i.e. not stretching it as long, cuting less links, different springs (brass, aluinum, steel)
  2. trigger stop (there are two ways to make a trigger stop, 1. on the trigger guard (drill a 1/8 hole in the double trigger guard near the bottom of the trigger, then go and get a 3/8 or 1/4 8-32 set screw, and a 8-32 tap, tap the hole screw in the set screw and adjust it turing right untill the trigger stops firing, then slowly turn left untill it barly fires, then tune it untill you like it) 2. in the frame (go and get a large enough tap for the RT hole and tap it, then go and find a screw either hex/phillp with the trigger mesurements to the tap, and screw it in) ^^ adjust as above.)
  3. pretravel and overtravel screw(pretravel screw is a set screw that adjusts how fast back the trigger goes when its idling(sitting there ready to be fired) overtravel screw is a set screw that adjusts when the trigger stops (aka trigger stop) so all you need is the pretravel screw, since i explained the trigger stop above, all you have to do is get a set screw that i said about in the trigger stop, (1/4 3/8 8-32) and tap the trigger return, screw it in adjust and fire.
  4. sear mod(sear mods are simple just get either a small diameter straw and put it where the sear rest, this couples with the pretravel screw.

this is all that you need in a trigger job

do a search for whatever you are looking for in the Uber Upgrades & FAQ thread that is stickied to the top of the discussion page.
