| Review: |
I purchased the double trigger a few months back and noticed a great deal of improvement in my game and speed.I was able to get on the high end 12bps which was a vast improvement over the stock trigger, This worked great when i Incorporated it with my flatline which allowed me to have both the causalities of being a front man clearing bunkers and a sniper |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I recommend this to be one of your first upgrades simply due to the price, and the overall boost in performance it is a must have |

| Review: |
I bought this trigger to replace the stock single trigger on my 98custom. Installation was very quick, took less than 10 minutes. After i installed it and went out to test it, i found that it was very hard to turn off the safety (after a while of use and working it in, it becomes easier), as well as the trigger is somewhat flimsy. I was impressed however because it feels really good, imo, to be using both fingers. Also i was able to shoot somewhat faster.
On a side note, if you do the pen spring mod (cutting a pen spring and replacing it where the stock trigger spring is) you can shoot a bit faster as well. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I would recommend this product to anyone in the market for a double trigger, as long as they can find it for a reasonable price. overall....9/10 |

The stock trigger on the Tippmann 98 Custom, in my opinion, is nothing compared to the double trigger kit in the ways of rate of fire. Other then that, this double trigger kit is pretty similar to other kits. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
-Improved rate of fire
-Quite comfortable
-Easy to install |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
-Interferes with the safety mechanism
|
 |
| Review: |
Let me begin by saying the Tippmann 98 Custom, stock, is a fairly good entry level marker. But as with anything, improvements can be made. The double trigger kit is a recommended upgrade because it will help you improve your rate of fire (it helped me a little anyways), makes it a bit more comfortable to hold, and, in my opinion, makes the 98 Custom look more like a paintball marker then some twisted kind of militaristic weapon.
There are some disadvantages, though. One of them was when I installed the kit it messed up my safety. After installing the kit, the safety became inefficient, and if you pulled the trigger with it on hard enough, it would sometimes fire a paintball, (in other words the safety wasn't reliable at all, and, after all, you should never rely just on the safety of your marker, always use a barrel plug/condom!!) and after about 5 months use, the safety became absolutely useless. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I would recommend this kit to the random hero that wants to upgrade his Tippmann a little bit. The double trigger, in my opinion, is a great improvement to the 98 Custom, and I think it will definetly help your game. However, nothing is perfect, and there are some problems involved. |

 |
| Review: |
Ok, when i first bought this, I thought installation would just be to open up the gun, take out the old trigger, and put this in. But After I did that, I noticed the safety wouldnt work anymore. I just pounded on the safety side that was stuck and it worked again, although now my gun can still shoot on safety if pressed hard enough, and that has never happened before. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I Personally think that this trigger is ok for what it is. Although the pull is kind of long and there may be some difficulties with the safety, i still like this trigger. For starters i would reccomend this trigger over the other Tippmann trigger since there is no cutting of the grips involved. For 20 bux, i say this is a good trigger for the Tippmann that can work with a response trigger. |

| Strengths: |
Same manufacturing as stock trigger, even same kind of plastic. |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
Safety engagment |
 |
| Review: |
Every thing is alright on this product except for one thing the area around the safety is a little too large and needs to be filed down or engaging the saftey is very difficult. All you need to open the area up is use a round file or even a razor blade to open the area around the safety just enough to let it engage properly. Other than that you have a very durable product. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If it is your only choice go ahead and get it . Fixing that problem only took a few minutes to fix and most of that time was looking for the file. |

Messes with safety, trigger guard wobbles |
 |
| Review: |
This is a good uprade if you have an e-grip or a response trigger because you just hold the trigger but if you have semi automatic, it might be easier to stay with a single trigger. this messes with the safety, but if you put it in just right, everything works. The trigger guard also wobbles just a little but it doesnt bother me when i paintball. Some people say they got this upgrade expensively, but i got it for $15 and it wasn't even on sale. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
This is good for an e-grip or a response trigger but there are better double triggers out there. |

 |
| Review: |
the trigger guard is nice. no need to cut grips. the safety problem did not happen when i installed it. the only thing i had to do was put the trigger pin in before i re mounted hte halves of the marker together. it can't be walked with ease, but still ALOT easier than the stock 3 punds of pull to trip the sear. all around good upgrade though! |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Its not perfect, but with a little pratice, it will work like a charm |

| Review: |
This Trigger is good. I just got it. If you don't want to spend alot of money find one on EBay, I got mine for $18.00. Everyone says the safety does not work and i've experienced that but after that I took my gun apart and put the safety on and then put my gun back together and it worked. The Trigger pull is light but even lighter with a simple Pen Spring where the stock spring is. I just got it but I had trouble shooting Fast but its just me. This Trigger is very easy to install, no cutting the grips (not hard anyway) |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Buy It. Cheap on eBay and easy to install. |

 |
| Review: |
Ive barely used this but it seems pretty good. shoots much faster than the stock trigger and is easyer to pull. it really prevents ur finger from getting tired. it was hard to install, but it was worth it in the end. side wobble and the cheesey plastic r a disapointment but not much else is. although it made my safety button harder to push, it makes it better because it is mutch harder to push out making it safer. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Good item, but im sure there r better oens out there |
