    Your gun is still new man, give it time. You also have to get used to your new trigger pull. My Spyder SE from what I thought had a good pull. I had to use my co-worker's RT at a game once and it simply rocked. Some moron burst onto the trail in front of the team I play on and the captain opened up on him, I rushed up behind him while he dropped to one knee. I stood over him and let loose. Yeah, I looked down at my hopper and it was almost empty in less then 6 seconds of sustained fire. No shoot down, just pure unadulterated fire power. The mag I bought used can reef out an easy 9 balls a second before the valve doesn't recycle fast enough to do much more. You'll get up there in bps as soon as your mag is "broken in" and you become accustomed to it's performance. Those guns you mentioned are all sloppy blow backs and are just internal train wrecks with each trigger pull. Those saps who use them paid between 200-350 for a "Tournament Grade" marker, when all they really bought was a 5th generation PMI VM-68. Your gun will last longer then thiers will, and mark my words, within 2 years half of them with upgrade to a mag, cocker or angel because thier gun started to die on them from wear and tear.

    Now, what you can do to not be "Out shot" is get a double trigger frame (Just pay the 115 dollars for an Intelliframe, You bought an AGD marker, use thier parts, you won't be sorry.), get a ReTro Valve upgrade, or just work on making sure your shots count. Accuracy by Volume is a nice way to eliminate people, if you can buy 2 cases an outting. Another thing that might help, get a new barrel, it'll help a bit with accuracy and your gun won't look so "stock". Get a nice preset Compressed Air tank, or if you have the cash get an adjustable one. 4500 88CUI is a good size, lots of shots per fill and they're not too bad on compactness.

    If you're gonna start choping up your grip frame to put in a double trigger see a more recent thread about making a trigger guard. If you go this route you can email me at [email protected] and maybe I'll send you the one I made for mine if you have a verticle bottle adaptor on your mag.

      For now don't worry about a fast trigger, like I tell every new player that wants to be able to shoot fast. Work on hitting your target with the first shot. Once you can do that regularly then you will find that you can fire faster. You need to break in your trigger. When I first got my mag it was very stiff and I caould shoot very fast but, now I'm one of the fastest triggers at my field. Mind you I'm not as accurate as I used to be but I'm fast. So give it time and you will see the speed improve. Oh a 2 finger trigger does help but if you can try a mag with one before you spend the money or hack your frame. 2 finger triggers aren't for everyone.
