I'm personaly getting the RT. The e grip sounds like it would be a poor up keep. My friend has a spyder Rocking Trigger, and he has to chaarge it all the time just to play for a day. Allso for woodssball I don't know if I want to use something electric. I'm affraid that I might hit a tree to hard, and it wouldn't work. Thee RT however does eat up air, but I have the Q-loader on my A-5 so all the air would go to the trigger. Its really up to the person I gess.

IMO, the E-Grip is the way to go.

Keep it coming, I would like to know how much air does the RT eat up. Can you really tell the difference??


Any ball breakage with the E-grip??

I have the RT on my A-5 and love it. I am thinking about getting an e-grip to try and have. But played with my RT this weekend at BC and had no probs. As far as air goes I thought that the RT worked off the air after you shot (left overs). I have a 47ci 3000psi nitrogen and can get about 600 give or take shots on it.

there is no learning curve on an e-grip you have to find a sweet spot on the Rt or at least on mine you did ..... the e-grip is alot faster

I love my response trigger, if it gets wet it still works.

Arrow Rt

I have an RT on my A5 and on my knuckleheads (son) 98. RT's do require some getting used to for the sweetspot, once you got that down I find it very sastifactory.
I don't have to worry about batteries, I can adjust the ROF on the side and it can use HPA instead of the demon gas of children.
For the weekend walk-on at PBC, I can usually stretch 2 games out of it before recharging the air bottle (if I don't get too maniacle with shooting).
I give THUMBS UP to the RT!

I currently have a Tippmann A-5 with a flatline. I'm going to be selling my Phantom to get a terney gun, so I might just get the RT and save my cash for the outher gun.
