Well, all I can offer is that the Mako(boo-yah) doesn't have as good of a reputation of working on a Mag as the Centerflag hyperframe. However, spyder tolerances are not near as tight as a mag, so I bet the Mako would work great.

I run the Storm on my Spyder. With a trigger stop made of eraser, and some messing with the set screw, I have gotten the pull to about 2/5 mm. Pretty short if you ask me. It isn't quite as light as most, but it still does decently. Instead of a light, smooth pull, you get an insanely short mouse clicky one. You can take off the trigger guard, and it has bottomline holes for both offset and standard. I did have to tinker with the solenoid a bit when I got it, because the plunger would only move up halfway when I shot it, but after a few short, quick adjustments, I was tearing on the trigger. The LCD is pretty nice, it has a game timer, shot counter, batterey life display, and firing mode display. It says you get about 3,000-8,000 shots off of one battery in the manual, but I have surpassed 10,000 (it may be because of the messing around I did with the solenoid. The only problem is, the battery life reads dead for about the last 8,000 shots. That's fine though, if I'm getting over 2,000 shots more than I said I would get). The grips are cheap plastic though, and crack if you screw the grip screws in too tight (only tiny cracks though, nothing too noticeable). It also has a tounrament legal switch, that disables you from selecting different modes of fire, nice thought to put that in there. Overall, I like it, and thought it was better than that ESP frame (I shot one on an AMG). Hope I was some help.

hey thanks man. that was a HUGE help. i couldnt really get anyone to tell me about the mako. it sounds like its decent enough. Once i get it, i too am going to have to mess with it a bit. If i have any problems you think you might be able to help me out?

The Mako-ELCD, Spyder ESP Classic E-Frame, PB Inc. Spyder E-Frame, and the Kingman Spyder Sprint Trigger E-Frame?
I think there are a couple more on the market but this is all that PBgear has...
