    Probably with, but nothing is set in stone yet. I'm just trying to see if there is a market them.

      One hurdle you might have it going up against others that offer anodizing for their triggers. I like your designs alot, but would be great to be able to get them at least anodized gloss or dust black. I know it's not your forte, but would be a nice option.

            I honestly don't know the price involved with setting up a single color ano line. I agree, I wouldn't outsource it either as it does seem to be the sticky wicket in the process. Seems like the biggest PITA's that I have had stemmed from waiting weeks/months for parts to come back from anodizing.

              I'll tell you right now, I am in the market for an emag trigger, but don't want to spend more than $50. If you can nail it down to less than that, I will take one of #2 for sure. I will also have an emag frame and rail to send to you for milling, so I can get the shipping all together.

                    Number 2 looks good for me. If the price isn't to high I'd be in for 1 or 2.

                          why so flat of a face?

                          These are the one's I'm making for the Axe right now. If you use a standard size radius, its just a couple of 2d paths and bam its done.

                            Now I don't mean to be mean, but if you really want to go ahead and make a new trigger, why make it look like all the rest of them out there? Looking at it objectively, these are not triggers that make me go,"wow, I've got to have one of those."
                            What really bugs me is how everyone is already pushing the price around. Seriously, we spend tons of money on every upgrade possible for our equipment, then when it comes to the one thing that you ineract with the most, and you get cheap. Quit nitpicking and let the guy do his work. The price he asks for will be fair for sure.
                            From experience though Luke, you'll sell between 25-40 of them and that's it. So why bother?
                            I'd rather see a design that requires a little more work, one that costs a bit more, but in the end gives me a trigger that turns heads and is really fun to operate.
                            Think outside the box.

                              No doubt the price he charges will be fair according to the materiel and the time he puts in to it. But, some of us operate on a tight budget. I don't buy a trigger to turn heads, I buy for additional style and comfort. If I can get one at $50 or less, I'll buy. Any more and I will stick with the stock one. Many of us are motivated by prices and what we perceive to be acceptable. I would love to have one of yours Dan, but they were always far out of my range.

                                My point is that these triggers don't really offer much more than a stock one as it is. Sithos' stronger radius is definitely a better feel, and that's a big improvement to a stock trigger. You guys keep thinking of Triggernomics' expensive stuff with silver, gold and stones, but in the end I can do a snazzy aluminum trigger for under a hundred dollars. By hand.
                                Simplify the design a bit, make it CAD adaptable and you are looking at a piece around 75 dollars. It's comfortable and very stylish to boot. Believe me, I've thought about doing this, but for the work you have to put into it it's not making a big turn around when only 50 of you pick one up in the end. I'll stick to making them one by one by hand then.
                                We have thousands of Mag users, but how many really want a new trigger?
