    So will this possibly increase the rate of fire, or does it make the sweet spot larger(easier to find)?

        Automags are semi... ROF is determined by how fast you can pull or bounce the trigger.
        It increases the return force so bouncing becomes easy.

        Testing update: Marginal success. I got some air and paint but can't find my halo for testing. I'll keep looking and if I can't find it I'll use an evoIII egg.

        Dry firing: I'm testing two new on/off types. I got the one pictured to work pretty good in an Xvalve. I can get a single trigger CF frame to bounce like mad using only a preset 850psi. Probably 15-20 bps... and pulling single shots is hard uness you really pull hard. I did not test the Classic Valve yet.

        There was occasional leakage with the trigger fully depressed. Im not sure if it's due to the type of quad ring I'm using or not... so I'll try to pick up some round top orings. Perhaps the pin is too short... perhaps I need a wider diameter head... I'll have to investigate this further as well (I'll machine two longer pins during my lunch break today). Also, the trigger pull seemed short and snappy. I'm going to cut away the side of a rail and secion it so I can see if I'm getting full sear travel.

        I'll probably try more testing saturday. I have two more alternate designs but it'll day to make each one. At this point, it is still not ready to sell to people.

            I am aware that mags are semi.. I was referring to how fast the trigger would bounce. I am more than happy with the rate at which my trigger bounces, I just have a hard time finding the sweet spot while under fire. I would be very interested in anything that would make the sweet spot larger.

                A god amongst mortals! This is totally sick! You know before I took a leave of absense from here you and I were building pneumags and I was pm-ing for advice. I come back and you're a freakin mag surgeon now whipping out all sorts of custom mag parts and valves. Keep up the great work, pretty soon I'll be emptying my wallet at you...
