hey i looking forward to buy a double trigger frame but i dunno which one to get:

which one is better the intelli or the benchmark??

i know one of the good things of the intelli is that u can connected (after putting some stuff)to your 12v revvy for the intelli feed thing but since i have a rickochet i dont need intelli feed cuz it already has it. So right now im just looking for a mechanical frame with a short pull which one has it? Someone told me that there was no diference on the pull of the intelli.

the intelli is made by agd (the benchy is not), so you dont void warranty by installing it. it also comes fitted with dye stickies. plus, the intelliframe has two trigger options, both the blade and the groove. the intelli is the better choice ;)

About $60 :D

Intelli is shorter pull, but benchy is lighter

I'm pretty sure benchies don't effect warranty (all others do though)

Yes it may cost a little more but it is definetaly worth it...heck you may even be able to find one for a good price on the forums here. I just recently replaced my stock frame with an intelliframe and it rocks! Don't waste your time on the benchy! :D

With a classic valve, use an intelliframe, no question.

With a Retro/X valve, both are great due to the reactivity of the trigger. I have a benchmark and Retro valve and my pull is very short, very light, and because the trigger kicks back, the extra pull length of the benchmark becomes irrelevant.

the benchmark does not void the warranty. i personally liked my bechmark better than the intelli. thats why i bought the benchy. i shot both, and i liked the soft pull, but there a lot of people that like the shorter crisper pull.

shoot both, and decide what you like better. they seem to be about the same quality, it is all going to come down to personal prefferance.

How does replacing the frame affect the warranty, and which warranty does it affect?

I have a benchmark. I was looking for an intelli, but they didn't have one at my local shop. Also, I really didn't feel like ordering anything over the internet. I bout the benchmark, and it's working great. I'm not sure how good intellies are in comparison, but either way, I'd say it's a good choice.

Official Warranty Policy (http://www.airgun.com/WarrantyPolicy.shtml)

Airgun Designs’ markers equipped with the E-LCD Boo-Yah or Centerflag’s Hyper Series Frames WILL NOT be accepted at the factory. If you want us to repair your marker, your aftermarket electronic trigger frames must be replaced by your stock frame. Any marker with an electronic trigger frame will be repackaged and shipped back to the customer without any work being performed on the marker. NO EXCEPTIONS!! Also, Diamond Labs or Dye frames invalidate the warranty and will require a $45 rebuild fee. Benchmark and, of course, our own Intelliframes will not invalidate the warranty if they have not been modified.

It has something to do with the tolerances and minute differnces of the physical mechanics of the frame and how the trigger acts as a lever on the sear.
Or something like that...
