Depends on if you like your current trigger. I would suggest going to your local pro shop or field, and seeing if anyone has an I-frame that you could try for a few shots.

Hope that helps.

You presume to know what he would feel comfortable with. Maybe he likes the stock.

Gitaroo Man - Are you having problems? Is there something you don't like? Don't listen to people advising you to throw tons of money into your gun for no real reason other than to buy buy buy!

If you have an issue with something, like feed issues, then I'd say try a 12v Revvy. If you have too long of a trigger pull, I'd say try the Intelliframe. But to just ask a random question like, "What upgrades should I get," shows that you really don't know enough about your gun to start making changes. Get a feel for the gun first, discover what you think needs improvement and research your alternatives. That is the only way to get the perfect feel for your Mag.

PS I know it isn't flashy, but do you ever play with the stock barrel? You'll be surprised how well it works with different paint! And the ReTro is great, but unless you have a good adjustable HP tank, it isn't worth while. I know you wanted me to tell you the secrets to the pefect gun, but you have to figure that out for yourself.
