Wow Luke way to keep coming up with ways to get me to send you money, as it is I'm going to be sending another body into you.
If you did do the modular 86* I would be down for two frames. Otherwise I would be down for 1 double trigger frame... Be perfect for a gun I'm building to give it a bit of sizzleGirls are no substatute of paintball
Murphy's law of paintball: If it jams force it. If it breaks it needed replacing anywaysComment

If you do a frame with a detachable trigger guard (conversion from single to double), please consider making an option of having a .45 frame. There's a lot of people who have been asking for a 90* or 86* frame, but the standard .45 frame will still draw a lot of buyers.Comment

Why not just do the front part of the frame taller and then make it compatible with Tippmann trigger guards? Is it really that hard to do?
Also, there was the old Boo-Yaah (I think that's how you spell it) electronic frame that had a removable trigger guard some good 15 years ago. You could mimic that one too.
A third option would be to make it as the Intimidator frames, which also allowed for replacing the trigger guard.
Although I like the first idea better as one could have a lot of options currently in the market for trigger frames.Last edited by mpsd; 08-06-2012, 12:01 PM.Comment

With the differing opinions on grip geometries, why not consider making the grip modular like a phantom? Modular trigger guard and grip would be ridiculously awesome. Might have to limit that to mech-only though, but not necessarily.Comment

Need some links to the parts you guys are referring to...Originally posted by splat15kWith the differing opinions on grip geometries, why not consider making the grip modular like a phantom?

The problem with using Tippmann trigger guards is they are based on a clamshell design. Also, I think the only trigger guards available for them are plastic.Comment

I happen to have an A5 frame laying around. The frame is actually three sections. A left half, right half and trigger guard. There are tabs on each end of the trigger gaurd that either are held in with screws or are just held in place by the frame halves:

I didn't know these are Clamshells. Anyways, you could do something like this as well:

And then all you would need would be a couple pins to hold it in place. You could either use a small screw or a pin like the ones we have for the trigger.
PS: I know my drawing sucks, to say the least but I only have Paint here and I wanted to give a brief idea only.

This is basically what they do with the AR15/M16 platform of firearms. The trigger guard is held in place with 2 pins. Now...with that in mind you would have open holes where the guard would go if you set the frame up for a cangeable guard between single finger and double finger system. Some won't mind that, some won't like it.Originally posted by mpsdI didn't know these are Clamshells. Anyways, you could do something like this as well:

It depends, actually. All you need would be a design to have the double trigger one fit in the same hole as the single one. A "U" shaped one could do it quite well and easy.Originally posted by wetwrksThis is basically what they do with the AR15/M16 platform of firearms. The trigger guard is held in place with 2 pins.
