This is a must for woodsballers that do not want to go fully automatic. It provides a decent dual trigger and guard, installs easily, and looks pretty good too! I recommend getting the firing pin upgrades as well – it really cuts down on trigger pull!

I had heard from friends and seen online that a double trigger is more comfortable than the standard trigger, so I decided to get this one for my Tippman A5. When I first took the trigger and guard out of the package, I noticed how flimsy the double guard was compared to the one that came standard on the A5. I still decided to install the double trigger. After I took apart the trigger housing, I could not put on the double trigger because one of the holes in it was not big enough to fit over a pin in the housing. I drilled a slightly larger hole in the trigger, and it then slid into place. I was hoping that after this the trigger would work. After reassembling the gun, I tried the new trigger only to find that it was extremely unsteady, moved from side to side, and felt very cheap. Although Dorosports is advertising this trigger as a GTA (Genuine Tippman Accessory), I assure you it is not. Judging from the other customer reviews, I suppose that the trigger is a GTA from other sellers, but watch out for the one from Dorosports.

I ordered this from Doro sports, it arrived via USPS very quick. The only draw back was no instructions and it only came in a clear plastic bag. Easy to put in if you are mechanically inclined, took about 5 mins when it was all said and done. There is a small mod that had to be done because one of the holes for the pins was too small, so I just grabbed a drill pit and ran it in a few times and presto! no more issues. I would caution you though, be careful you don’t do it too much as the trigger could sit loose if the hole is too big. Cant beat it for the price. Also just because it says Tippmann doesn’t mean its made by Tippmann.

Just tried installing the double trigger and guard on my A5 and while the trigger fits where it’s supposed to, the guard that showed up with the trigger was much too small! It was like one committee designed the double trigger and another committee on the other side of the world designed the guard and they never talked. Without the guard the item is useless. Very disappointed.

i bought this, took my gun apart, tried to install and i got mad because the hole was to small and even if u do make the hole bigger it does not fit well in the trigger holder thing so basically i have a double trigger frame with a single trigger
