You're right, it looks hideous but it works. Funny thing is this is intended for my prettiest mag.

I might spend some time trying to clean it up a bit, but right now I want to get paint in it and flang some downfield

You know...thinking about it...this could actually be fairly easy with strong earth magnets...
I Googled up some magnets...found a retailer selling them in many different sizes and shapes...

Just mill a little slot into your trigger frame to house the magnet...and a slot onto the back of your trigger with a bit of an epoxy and your in business!
Perhaps a pair of these and maybe even a set screw to adjust the amount of push via distancing of the magnets from eachother...
What do you guys think?
Should I try doodling up a little bit of a visual aid?

you just described a magnetic return for a trigger, if you want to have magnets do what maninblack and maghog did with springs, youd have to put a magnet on the sear and another on the trigger, and youd probably have to make some sort of guide for the sear too, it seems alot more difficult than what they have done

You wouldn't need to put a magnet on the sear rod. You have a magnet on the trigger and a magnet on a lever connected at a pivot point to the trigger.

So you're describing the same thing MagHog has pictured on the first page but with opposing magnets instead of a spring. That sounds like it has a much better chance of working than putting a magnet on the sear. I may have to try that with the first trigger I started working on. I have a couple small rare earth magnets sticking around somewhere...

I sort of did something like that with my Pneumag, to help with the short stroking. It does help, but it can get kinda tricky.

I'm doing that right now! and it cost me about 18 bucks less than getting the stuff from a dealer. Huzzah!

Radio shack magnets for the win.

Yup, i need to wait 2 weeks till the big game to finish my magnet mod though.

Even better, stick a rare earth magnet on the end of your trigger rod and sew another into the finger of your glove. It's a new take on an old dirty trick.

Don't let the kiddies on PBN get a hold of that one, though, or they'll be buying up all the old R/T 'mags to make some mech cheaters.

Now with paint and a little surprise at the end...
