I recently added a double trigger to my A-5. While doing so I lost that little silver metal peace that sticks out from the RT valve to the trigger, can some one tell me what that "did" and where I can buy a replacement part for it, thx

thats basically what triggers... the.. well.. trigger! Its what releases the air to make the response do what it does. Or at least i believe.

If Im not mistaken, you wont have your r/t capabilities, but should still be able to fire semi-auto. Worse case scenario, you still have your stock trigger?

Sounds like you lost the piston. You can get another from tippmannparts.com.

How did you lose your piston?

The gun came with with RT installed already, but only the little metal part that sticks out of the handle towards the trigger is missing. I was installing a double trigger when I dropped the whole thing.

Yep, you've lost the...piston bit...of the piston (as opposed to the piston housing). You'll still be able to fire semi auto, but your R/T will not R.

Also, you'll feel an odd blast of air against your finger when you fire.

(I also want to ask why you are installing a double trigger with an R/T...most people find single trigger easier to control).

I would highly recommend ditching the double trigger if you have a R/T. Why? Good question. Well the R/T is all about finding the "sweet spot" and that is done (in my humble opinion) with one finger. A double trigger tempts you to use two, thus making in more difficult to find and thus be consistant in finding and if it is your choice maintaining a constant rate of fire once said sweet spot is found.

Hate to say it but. . .double trigger plus the R/T may have been a waste of money. Live and learn. . .Lord knows I have since deciding to mod and upgrade my marker.
