No. Basically, what the RT does it use the blowback gas to power a cylinder behind the trigger that bumps it back in place for the next shot. If you sweet spot it, it will give you somewhat full auto, but you still only get a shot on the pull, not release. I have one on my 98 and actually have mixed feelings on it. If you are also running a Cyclone, I would suggest getting the larger lines and fittings for it. Personally, I just picked up an A-5 with E-grip and love it. ------------- "When I grow up I want to marry a rich man and live in a condor next to the beach" -- My 7yr old daughter. |

Personally, no. I just got the E-grip recently, so maybe it is still a newness, but I really like it compared to the RT. There is no guess work to it, there is no sweet spot.

the only real problem i have with the E-grip is it shoots too fast for the cyclone on my A-5 so the cyclone chops half the balls

Palmers makes a QEV that may help your Cyclone cycle faster. Also, look into squishy paddles. ------------- "When I grow up I want to marry a rich man and live in a condor next to the beach" -- My 7yr old daughter. |

They may or may not help you. The paddles are softer than the stock ones, but will not actually help with the cycling rate. But yes, a lot of places carry them. T-Tech is the brand. Actionvillage, Paintball Discounters sell them as well as a lot of others. What marker do you have? Is it a 98 or A-5? ------------- "When I grow up I want to marry a rich man and live in a condor next to the beach" -- My 7yr old daughter. |

Why not adjust the E-Grip to fire more slowly? The stock Cyclone can handle about 15bps. Start going any higher and you start blending the paint. The only other option is getting all the TechT Cyclone upgrades here: http://www.techtpaintball.com/ - http://www.techtpaintball.com/ -------------

I got a RT on a A5 and i love it, only reason i am changing it to an e-grip is for tournament play. The RT is somehing either you love it or you hate it. Up grade your cyclone as much as possible and it will keep up with just about anything you can throw at it. Mine with the RT was clocked at 22-25 BPS. ------------- A-5, BT M16 barrel, 6 post. stock, polished internals, RT, Vortex-Lightning Rod-Squishy Paddels-QEPH, remote line |

THe cyclone shouldnt chop too much at all if you have the egrip set up for it. if you want faster ROF you do need to upgrade the cyclone's internals so that it can keep up. Also make sure you are using decent paint. The cyclone will shred the really cheap stuff. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">
