    You may continue to bash G-Force and the whole idea of a penumatic trigger if you like...

    However, I'm going to naively pretend that this is legit... and so I've started a new thread with the intention of listing AO's demands for a pneumatic trigger. If you have any constructive feedback for G-Forge, please come on over and voice your opinion.

    Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.

      The patent that PTP has is for a Pneumatic Assisted Trigger system. The Patent that G-Force has is for a Pneumatic Marker. Beyond that I can only speculate as to how/why G-Force is able to manufacture Pneumatic Frames. Hopefully someone with real information and evidence can shed some light on this. Until then your guess is as good as mine. I'm not going to call "shen" as they say just yet, but I would like to see something more than just a forum post and letter from PTP giving support would be good to see as well.

        My assumption would be that the two companies are connected at least in a licensing agreement or something.

                Automags, Spyders and Tippmann paintball markers.

                Stay tuned. More details to follow.

                  I wonder how much this would help a spyder or tippman since you'd still have that hammer slamming back and forth.

                    What does that have anything to do with anything?

                    Pneumatic triggers are to lighten and shorten the triggerpull. Recriprocating mass has nothing to do with a triggerpull. Sure, they'll kick like mules, but they'll have snappy little pulls.

                      One of the patents I looked at had a ram, attached to the sear.

                        This thread was posted to get feedback as we are preparing to manufacture a pneumatic frame for the Mags.

                        Please do not clutter this thread with patent related posts. I am sure there are threads already started on this subject.

                        I will be reading and responding to posts once a day.

                          When you say AGD style triggers, are you referring to the exposed trigger portion in the trigger guard area?

                          The internal or hidden portion needs to be modified to actuate the pneumatic valve.

                            actions speak louder then words... produce a frame, otherwise all you will get is skepticism


                            and with the triggers... i do believe everyone is refering to being able to use there existing triggers

                              We never mentioned a Mag because Mags were not even considered. We had received requests from Mag owners to offer a pneumatic frame.

                              We have prototype of our 68 Super and S1 pneumatic markers. The internal pneumatics could be also used in a Mag frame. We would need to CNC machine a new frame to fit onto a Mag.

                              So you are right, we don't have a prototype for the Mag yet.

                                Rawbutter,

                                Could you please merge your new thread into this one.

                                I would prefer to keep all the info on this thread centralized.

                                I have quickly read over your list, and would like feedback on it from everyone else. We would like to make only one frame if possible that could suite the majority of Mag owners.

                                I would also like to wrap it up in a week or two so we can begin production of the first prototype frame to show you all.

                                Garf
