Will we see a resurgance of the single trigger

[Lohman446]

68MAGOWners shocker modifications made me think.

He said that his Shocker, modified to a single trigger, feels more compact and allows him a better grip on the marker.

Since trigger speed has become a moot point to some people, will we ever see some (not all) people opt for a single trigger (or those sexxy 1.5 triggers like on a Buzzard), to give them a better grip, and for those of us that shoot firearms often, a more natural feel?

I doubt that very much. With many fields still opting for no ramping, and the ingrained sense that double triggers are "cool" that come from over a decade of advancment towards that, I think two finger trigger will stay the standard for a long time to come.

I would definaterly shoot a singe triggered electro.
I had an Angel LED that I used to LOVE shooting on the airball and recball fields alike.

I agree that there will probably always be more double triggers then singles (at least in currently sold markers). Do you think though we will see companies start to offer a single trigger version?

Unless the power players of the tourney scene found a make to make it apealing to the younger crowds, I just don't see it happening. Than again, anything is possible.

Maybe as a niche market, but I think triangle is right on this one. Unless some of the upper level tourny guys start using them, or some tournament series decides to allow them less restrictions(i dont know a special form of ramp or something like that), I don't think they'll ever get popular enough to see it.

I think at best we might see a company like logic(im not saying logic will, i'm meaning a smaller custom shop) come out with a run of them at some point if a demand started to arise.

I agree with this guy.

It would definately be a niche market.
With ramping modes the single trigger shooters could easily keep up with the double trigger guys.
You could market it as a (slight) weight savings with the 'same ROF speed'. I'm sure there are idiots out there who'd eat it up and buy one.

Oddly enough I shot a single triggered mag back when I had a single trigger benchmark frame.
Paired with my dallara kit, it actually looked alot like an older Angel. That was the only reason why I took my Hyperframe off of it, just because it looked cool.

I've got a classic with one of those benchy single trigger frame sitting in my box right now :).


In someway with a mech mag, I almsot PREFER the single trigger because of the way I fan, but then again I could just be wierd....errr no wait I am wierd, just undecided about the wierdness of my trigger preferance...

Again, I concur with Aggie. With the correct frame, I love the feel of a single triggered mag. I'm talking NON-ult. None of that ULT crap for me. No sir.

Back on topic, It'd be easy to market single trigger kits to certain demographics.
The easiest of which would be the timmy owners, as their trigger guards are removeable.

There was a Single trigger kit out for a while, I dont know if it's still in production or not, though.

manufacturers no.
perhaps a spike in mod kits form outside sources, but very limited.
The double trigger frame has to solid of a preference with the masses at this time to see that option become remotely available.

[txaggie08]

I tell you what would be fun to see is a tourny series aimed at nastalgia guns.


No double frames, No hpa, No R/T, nothing better than a 9v revvy or shake 'n bake. All old school cockers, mags, and spyders, maybe the occasional tippman(hmmm pro-carbine maybe?). Maybe even allow the double triggers but hey..


THAT would be alot of fun. Kind of like the pump movement but not quite so radical.

[Pzippy]

I'm not really picky on the style of trigger. I like my Intelliframe, but I wouldn't mind a single trigger frame. So I guess I'm neutral.

I like the leverage that a longer trigger gives me.
