| hey guys, i need some help. i have a 98 custom with a response trigger that i installed into it. putting it in was no big deal but it shoots way too fast. i can run through a 9 ounce tank in probably 15 or 20 seconds. it feels like the silver cylinder inside the gun handle is getting a lot of pressure. at times it is almost hard to pull the trigger. any help is welcome thanks in advamce |

| You're turning the speed down with the adjuster on the side and it is still too fast? |

Copied and Pasted from Model98.net
Fine Tuning the RT First lets make sure your RT is in proper working condition. Gas up your gun. Turn the RT adjustment all the way counter-clockwise until it stops. Fire your gun one or two times. This should make your trigger VERY hard to pull, this insures you that your RT is working correctly with no leaks. Now turn the adjustment screw clockwise until the trigger is easy to pull. You can leave it here for high rates of fire, or turn it further clockwise for a lower rate of fire. Now that we know your RT is in working condition lets set it up for maximum performance. Since the RT is such a brut method to fire a gun, not much fine tuning has to be done. Since the RT will be doing all the work of re-setting the trigger, remove the trigger return spring. Now check to make sure you have the stronger sear spring that comes with the RT kit. Your gun will still work with the standard spear spring, but if you have your gun running in the 16+ BPS range, your gun may misfire and not cock without the stiffer RT sear spring. You can identify the stronger spring by the bigger diameter of the coils. Now just use the ROF adjuster on the outside of the gun to pick how fast you want your sweetspot to be. Remember you can control how fast you fire by how you work the trigger too. It's like driving a race car, it takes some practice, but eventually you will have total control! ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

| Did you see any reason it would shoot too fast on your 98? |

I'm surprised they didn't give you a run through on it.
Of course it was always there in the instructions
 Good to hear your up and running.
