JKW, the owner of techna trigger is planning on making e-mag techna triggers if there is enough interest shown to make them worthwhile

i thought that i'd post this to show him how many AOers would love to have a carbon fiber roller-bearing trigger for their e-mag


if you don't know what a techna trigger is, here's their website: www.technatrigger.com

Ok if he made it exactly like the blade trigger on the inteli frame... meaning the same size, he can make it look a bit different... I'd buy one in a heart beat!

Some company makes a blade trigger for the E-Mag already, the problem is their trigger is shorter than the stock one and I have big hands and sometimes wear gloves...

But yeah, a light carbon fiber trigger on an E-Mag.. put me down for one!

there already is one in existance, Brad nestle Agd Tech owns one, and it is the sweetest trigger ever made.


it is skinnier than the curent triggers, its more like a cobra stick trigger, and it is wonderfull. I love that trigger soo much. its so smooth with its ball bearing piviot point.


I would buy one in a heartbeat, even tho i dont own an e-mag any more. i would buy one to support the cause. thats how much i love the trigger.


Please, tell him to go for it

I would take one, but not a blade style. Something with a little bit of a bump in the middle. Somewhere between a stock E-mag trigger and a Tl63 would be great. Also if the hump was rounded not pointed it would be even better.

I just like this quote from their web page: "to reduce sprung weight" :D ;)

Looks like a nice trigger. I like my E-Mag's trigger now but I'd bet a lot of people would go for this lighter one.

Depending on the looks and cost, I might buy one. I don't even have the Logic LT-3 trigger I ordered 3 weeks ago yet........

i like the trigger that i have now, if it could be carbon fiber i'd love it.

oi think this is the rappier style you are talking about.

Derman2k
01-01-2004, 11:36 AM
Eh... thats kinda sorta like it... this is it though


I don't think it would work in an Emag though due to the thin-ness of the trigger.

70 bucks for a trigger?




I don't even want to comment, because if I begin to my head will explode!

It depends on the price. The stock trigger I have now is "ok", but if this thing is that much better - I'd go for it.

Yeap, I've got the first one and it's not for sale. I like it that much. Tom liked it when he saw it too. JKW and Tom talked at the Texas Throwdown...good things were said by both.

Now, send Jason (JKW) some nice, polite emails and I bet he will make everyone some.

My trigger rides on ABEC 7 bearing but I forget the weight of it...friggin' light is all I can say.

AND

How does the magnet mounting work in the CF triggers and how does it effect weight?

BradAGD

The magnets mount like the Timmy Blade triggers. Glue the HES magnet in and use a set screw in the top. Works good on mine.

Thats what I would wonder. You could put a small non-adjustable magnet in the trigger, and I don't think it would affect the weight to much.

I am definately interested though. I shoot one of these triggers on a Timmy, and it was awesome.

Brad,
if you take a look at the coolhand trigger it also has an adjustble "nut" form manual mode. I would assume that with carbon trigs its E or nothing?

the CF trigger right now is only Emode, but I plan on doing some more work with it to get the Mmode back.

Awesome idea, roller trigger = no.

But i rather see them made for viking/excal and an angel before an Emag.

Brad's trigger DOES rock. I really enjoyed playing with his "unique" gun ;-)

carbon fiber is not cheap to work with. Don't expect it to be cheap. That being said. I emailed JKW about a month ago after seeing Brad's at throwdown. He said it was something he was thinking about, but unless we show him we're serious it may not happen anytime soon (or at all). I've got one of his triggers on my GZ right now and it is my favorite trigger I've ever shot. It may not be cheap, but it's worth every penny.

Well, here's my lil'baby. I spoke with Jason from Techna Trigger about the play in my Benchmark 45 frame. There was alot of play in the trigger? He asked me what I wanted then he took the frame for a awhile.....[boom]....this is what he came up with. It's very comfortable due to it's unique shape. It does not have a bearing in it like Brad's, but you can't tell by it's smooth performance. I would suggest the triggers to anyone.

Note: This trigger is one of a kind. It is also one of only two Techna Triggers made for mags. (Yes, Brad has the other.)

I check out brad's today. ITs nice since the trigger has less mass to move around you get a great return via the magnet pretty cool...

I would buy one. Depending on what they ended up looking like.

I'm considering a Logic Blade right now, because the grooves on the stock trigger or some deep.

For 70 bucks, no, I would not want one. If the price goes down, I'll be sure to pick one up.
