Hello I have an A-5 with a Response Trigger and Flatline and I've been having problems with my trigger. Even when the safety is off and it is gased up the trigger won't respond. It gives no tension when you squeeze the trigger. I believe it has something to do with the pin in the handle that deals with the response trigger. I took the whole handle and trigger assembly apart and didn't notice anything wrong so I oiled everything and made sure everything was tight and in the correct positions, put it all back together, gased it up and it did the same thing. Any ideas on what might be wrong?

Is the marker not firing, or is the RT just not working? Have you followed the instructions on how to set the RT? There are adjustments that need to be made in order to get it to work properly.

Read the instructions. Theres a small screw that conrols air flow to the piston. If its all the way in it completely restricts the airflow and you will NOT be able to pull the trigger.
 
Just read the direction.. unscrew the screw slightly, continue doing that until your rof oes up. If you unscrew it all the way it will NOT aid your ROF at all and will just seem like un-aided semi-auto.

I don't think it has anything to do with adjusting the response trigger screw. I've had it set where it is currently set for over a year and haven't touched it and its been working fine until the other day.

Varying weather conditions, especially if you are using CO2 will require occassional adjustments. At least try it and see if that is the problem.

I'm a little confused there too.  Is your gun still firing at all or are you having problems with JUST the RT?
