AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Didn't someone make a big deal about her using trademarked or copyrighted images, causing her to simply quit making grips? It was some time ago, so it could have been someone else.

I guess if it was me I'd be interested. I think I could handle the criticism too. Making them by hand leaves me suspect to being the one in question because I am not machining any of this. Most of the other stuff on here seems staightforward, maybe I'm wrong.
I've always tried to put things in the right place, and this is the first I've heard of these problems. I don't think I've made more than ten e-mag triggers, and only one of those in the recent past. I'll heed Tuna's call and say that I won't make anymore. I wouldn't want to risk frustrating a customer, and even worse, turn Tuna into a flaming red smilie.

I don't think Tuna is talking about you Dan. Your tiggers always work and things are placed right. Besides, they are a work of art and visually stunning! It's the hackers who call themselves trigger makers he is speaking of

I think before we start the fires and go for the rope, the company involved needs to be given the opportunity to correct the problem. This is the first it has been brought up and TBH, I have a trigger from a well known source that came to me with issues. Namely the tolerances must have been slightly off as I needed to sand part of it down for it to move freely. I thought it could have been the frame, but when I tried 2 actual AGD triggers on the frame, they worked fine. I also tried the trigger in another frame and it still stuck. So crap happens, let's see how it's resolved and/or if it's a one time mistake or flaw in the design.

Namely the tolerances must have been slightly off as I needed to sand part of it down for it to move freely. I thought it could have been the frame, but when I tried 2 seperate AGD triggers on it, they worked fine. I also tried the trigger in another frame and it still stuck. So crap happens, let's see how it's resolved and/or if it is a one time mistake or flaw in the design.
I think the point being made is dealers of parts/ aftermarket or not need to research and test and make sure they are releasing a good product. make sure it works, the buyer shoulder never need to modify a final product. unless they are doing their own personal mods.
and yes sanding a small tolerance down so somthing will fit is not right.

And that's my point. This is the first complaint, and I know that the triggers in question have been in circulation for at least a year or so, if I'm not mistaken. I think it should be determined if this was an anomoly, or if the design is flawed as well as how does the manufacturer respond. Calling someone out as a hack is a bit much until some of these questions are answered.
One design flaw has been pointed out to me. However, this design aspect is not on at least one stock E-trigger that I have.

I dont know if this is a one off mistake or not as this is the first one that I have come across. I DO know that there is a design flaw and Every AGD Emag trigger I have ever seen does not have this flaw. Just compare the triggers and it will be evident. Also, it is not my job nor is anyone paying me to correct their mistakes so they will have to figure this one out by themselves. If they would have copied the trigger correctly then we wouldn't be talking about this right now. You can't just leave stuff out of a working design and expect it to work as originally designed.
On the emag panels, is this because its causing a short or grounding issue with the metal panels? And would the same issue happen with wood grip panels. Reason I am asking is because I am going to give my hand a try on wood panels, just for my own use. If so then I will just make them for the mechs.

No. The Emag panels have a raised lip around the outside edge and a standoff in the middle to stop the panel from hitting against the solenoid/ mount/screw. Putting pressure on the solenoid/mount/screw from either side will stop the Emag from functioning. The solenoid must remain loose and float around a bit. That is in the design. Just copy the original panels and you wont have any problems...nor will I.

I have used SPD grips on my emag and I removed the solenoid screw so they would fit, and it seems to function fine with out it. I have always wondered but never asked is that bad for my emag? If it is I guess i can just mod the grips so the solenoid screw will fit.
