    Help in upgrading an old RT

    I have an old RT (air flows through the body rail). It's super sharp looking with extra mill work on the body, rail, fore arm and it's anodized. The problem is I want to keep it like it is but up grade it also.

    Can I put a Booyoah, Center Flag Hyper Frame, or some other electronic grip on it? Will this also help stop short
    stroking?

    Any other suggestions?

    You can put an electric frame on it but you will loose the reactive trigger. You won't be able to find that sweet spot on the trigger with an electric frame. It will stop the short stroking though.

      What electronic grip would be the best?
      Does AGD make one?

        I didnt think that the electro frames were designed for the old RT. I know that you would have to drill a bigger hole in the frame for the banjo bolt. But I have heard that they have problems when used in conjunction with a retro/RT valve.

          If you ask alot of the rt owners, including myself, " THe best RT is a stock RT . That said, go for the intelliframe if you do not have a 2x trigger, and a variety of barrels or freak kit is a neccesity these days. No need to alter the internals, since they work best stock. I wouldnt waste the $$ on an electro frame, I heard that the RT valve doesnt work with an electro frame.

              Read the E-mag upgrade thread posted by AGD. They are now accepting the original RT for the E-mag upgrade for $550. I upgraded my RT Pro to an E-mag and I cannot get enough of it. Take a look see....

                VERSATILITY...There are so many paint manufacturers out these days all making their own quality paint, each having a different bore. No need for 8 barrels of different bores, just get one barrel and change the insert...cheaper if u look at it that way.

                  DarkPhoenix, the E-Mag upgrade for the RT is only for the RT Pro, not the original RT. Thanks for the suggestion anyhow.
