Satisfied with my purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fit really well, nice rubber *by J***R on May 5, 2026* Nice and soft, fit really well, I had to rebuild a couple of Tippmann 98 and A5 markers. Fit like they should ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great feel and quality for appropriate platforms. *by B***. on August 31, 2023* Purchased the 6 pack for back up use, I own a Phenom X7 and a TMC Tippmann. The latch fits perfectly in the Phenom platform as shown in the last two images (5-6). The TMC blank adapter did not unfortunately (view image 1 for comparison of new latch and OEM one). HOWEVER, after a little bit of trimming to the front portion of the latch (image 2), the latch fit in the metal holder just enough for function (image 3). I used a sharp pocket knife to cut the slight portion off but a exacto knife will do the trick as well. Tested the modified latch at the field with high quality paint and not a single chopped or double feed in the chamber. I’m also not running a anti chop bolt as well. If you are double feeding or chopping balls constantly/every now and then, inspect your latch and it may be time to replace it. Thanks for the amazing product! ## Frequently Bought Together - Captain O-Ring – Replacement Ball Detent Latch for Tippmann 98, A5, X7 FA-18 Ball Keeper (Select Pack Qty) - Captain O-Ring Tippmann 98, A5, X7, FT-12, Gryphon, Triumph, US Army - Color Coded 3X Oring Rebuild Kit - Paintball Marker Oil Lube (1oz, 30cc) by Captain O-Ring - Dropper Oil Lubricant for Paintball Markers and Air Guns --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/29966530-replacement-ball-detent-latch-for-tippmann-98-a5-x7-fa](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/29966530-replacement-ball-detent-latch-for-tippmann-98-a5-x7-fa) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
