New to the forum not to paintball though. Well I have an idea for a Tippmann A5. The e-grip is nice yes i love it but what would be even better is a rocker trigger for the A5, with a rocker trigger that gun would be insane! Does anyone know how to "suggest" this to tippmann or something? me and a friend at work were talking about it and if we cant get that suggestion through to the right people we are thinking about modding a grip with a rocker trigger for the a5. Some feed back on this would be nice too.What do you guys think about the idea? me and my buddies think it would be a huge hit and A5 users would go nuts to get it. ------------- Spazz |

i don't think tippmann will make one so you guys will probably have to mod your trigger if you really want it. BUT.... I don't even think it's possible because for it to work you will need two trigger switches because without both you'd only be benefitting from one direction of rocking with the e-grip. You could probably do it but then you will have to wire it and still who knows if the board will be able to process it will both trigger switches. It would be a monster of a rocking trigger too on the A5 grip so you would definitely have to relocate the original trigger switch higher on the grip and you guys would be doing alot of work. ------------- "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum." |

Those rocking triggers are such a gimmick. They offer no real skill in how to walk a trigger. Once you learn to walk on a rocking trigger, you need a rocking trigger on every other gun after that. They also arn't always tourney legal, because of the 2 switches.

Not to mention the rocking trigger is a copyrighted product. Chevrolet cant start putting Ford Hybrid Escape technology in Colorado's. Plus, Tippmann wouldn't want to pay kingman anyway. Although it would not be rocket science to mod one on an A5. -------------

yea he's right i started thinking about it in math yesterday and you could do it if you really wanted to. you might want to put less angled grip on it though, otherwise it would be extremely awkward, but if you did this it would also be alot harder to mod ------------- "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum." |

You can mod it in I know but why?
They aren't any faster than a conventional double trigger, just a bit easier. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |
