Sick!



MagHog, when will you start bulk producing some of these toys?

[warbeak2099]

Holy shnikeys, I thought some of those bursts were single shots lol. That is fast as balls!

Okay, I have to say that the design that ManInBlack intrigued me quite a bit, enough to make the piece that you see at the end of the video there. I am going to send it to him for him to do some testing to see if it works. I have a few pieces of steel I want to put in there first.
If ManInBlack decides he wants to offer these triggers as a product, that's up to him....it's his design.
If AO seriously wants me to make a batch of this design, I would only do it in collaboration with ManInBlack.

If at any point this thread becomes a matter of whether it's sales pitch or not and needs to be shut down or moved, please feel free to modify as is warranted.

Question is,
what does AO want?

5 ?
10?
50?

My guess is that the price for such a trigger will stay under $100.

MIB,

Using that trigger design, is it possible to easily fire a single shot? Or do you have to be really careful not to unload your hopper?


I'm currently dabbling with pneumags but might consider purchasing a trigger like this, esp. since I suck at walking the trigger.
One of my big concerns would be having control over the trigger or some form of adjustability. I'd hate to have to put my Mag away because a field may not like the excessive display of RT-ness (and swapping triggers on the fly is no easy task)

[ManInBlack]

I'm definitely interested in working with MagHog on this. Once he's done testing his metals and sends it to me for more testing here we'll see about making a run of them. Kinda depends on how many people might want them.

Oh, and I can think of a simple mod I can make to the design to make this trigger act like a normal trigger would, so no issues there.

Speed of firing can be best modified by input pressure, so if you have an adjustable tank you should be able to control how fast you shoot.

[Heiliger Bimbam]

A Sear with a small RC-car damper could work, too.

Yeah, same here, i was wondering what was up.

First off, simply amazing. I've got a small bar of aluminum in my garage I was going to hack up into a trigger similar to a UMF style, but I think I'm gonna have to try one of these too. Of course I'll have to wait to get an RT valve first. :) It's in the works. Can anyone tell me where I might be able to find some "spring" metal like that without having to buy a 10' saw blade or go rummaging through MIB's dad's back yard?

As far as turning it into a one pull/one shot trigger, I suppose you could put another stop higher up on the trigger near the top of the "spring" metal that could be tightened down if and when you get to a field that doesn't want you peppering someone with 20 balls in a second



Which also brings me to my dumb question of the day. Will this get you kicked off of most fields? Could you argue that it is purely mechanical? Again, I don't really care, I'm definitely making one. I don't usually play at regulated fields, mainly woodsball, so most of the guys I play with are already shooting with their full autos turned on. It'll be so sweet to show them what a real gun can do (with a little help of course).

Dan

Yes please. Me want one.

[Papa_Smurf]

Yes please. Me want one.

I'll hop in line too.

[snoopay700]

If it's cheaper than a viper pro i might, just because this is more of a show thing than an actual application, where as the viper pro is an improved legal trigger.

This is exactly what I was thinking to make it a one pull one shot deal.

[k.rollin]

I'd like to try something similar to MIB's design, but with a single finger trigger and frame. Thing is, would the shortened length make this mod less useful, or entirely useless?

[ManInBlack]

You'd have to play with how "bendy" the spring steel piece is. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it could be much more difficult than a double finger size trigger.

[snoopay700]

Yeah, the longer the steel piece is the easier it is to dial it in to bounce.
