Who else thinks that a good idea for a manufacturer would be a frame made at such an angle where it is very easy to rake, yet you can still hold onto the frame. I am not not sure what angle it would be, but i am guessing something like a z-grip, except you can adjust the trigger's pivot point to be at the angle of a .45, or the same angle as the rest of the z-grip

Alright, I have never heard the term RAke before... EVER

Except TODAY! In like 3 threads! Including Jack&Cokes big one, he was "raking" the trigger. I just assumed he meant walking, but now in just one day I KEEP seeing it! Can you explain raking please :)

raking is when you run your finger up and down the trigger, firing multiple times on each stroke


also, no automag except for e-mags, hyperframes, and boo-yah's are rakeable



also, your idea for a z-grip w/ a .45 trigger angle

that would be the AGD y-grip
Z-grip on a lesser angle with a standart .45 trigger position

dude! IT'S NUB RUBBING WITH A NEW TITLE! lol!!!

cool, I drew up a rake frame on photoshop, it's a y-grip, roller trigger combo. still needs more work though.

I contoured it so when you hold it your thumb is on the back of the frame. You should be able to get a good idea on how to hold it. I think it'd be pretty rakeable.

yeah... but it would cost several hundred dollars to produce just one if you need to have someone else machine it

Your right. We're better off not even trying.

cause doc nickle starts full-custom frames at $200 and up


plus you cant rake a manual automag for crap, the pull is just too long

raking is a term used when using the "roller trigger method" for electros only. Footemps, thank you.

no, its kinda hard to explain. You hold the marker by the forgrip in one hand. In the other, you move your finger up and down the trigger. There is a video of the owner of oddesy paintball doing it here (http://www.automags.org/~TomAGD/trigger.mpg)

DONT THROW ANY NEW TERMS INTO THE CONVERSATION!


Walking = taking both fingers and alternating pulling the top and bottom of the trigger

Fanning = taking 1 or 2 fingers, whatever, holding the gun steady wiht your other hand and shoulder, and moving your hand back and forth as fast as possible on the trigger.

Raking = running your finger up and down the trigger, hitting it and making it fire when you hit a hump on the trigger. Works nice on matrices and timmies ;)
