Lightening trigger pull

I am interested in lightening the trigger pull on my a-5. I dont like the idea of using a 2 cent pen spring in a 260 dollar gun. If anyone knows of a kit that fits tippmanns, share the wealth. Thanks

It's a little odd the first time you hear about using cheap everyday things in a mod, like how some people use a rubber band to mod the switch springs in their Angels.

I doubt there even is a trigger spring kit for a Tippmann. Best bet is to just find a cheap-o spring that makes it feel lighter. It won't hurt anything, and if you do discover a problem, you can always put the stock spring back in.

theres noting that can go wrong.

you're basically taking out a 2 cent spring and replacing it with a 2 cent spring
