    I'll be different than most folks and say electro. Reliablity isn't that much of an issue for me because 90% of electros out are just as reliable as the mechanical markers. I also like a complex design so I feel like I have accomplished something when I figure out how it works.

    So electro for python.

      There is one thing that I absolutly HATE about electro triggers-BATTERIES BATTERIES BATTERIES BATTERIES BATTERIES BATTERIES BATTERIES. I have had too many bad experiences with batteries. I now shoot a ReTro minimag and the thing I love most is that I can really dish out MORE than plenty paint, and I don't have to deal with fun batteries. It's bad enough having to deal with my HALO and warp. If I ever did upgrade to a better gun, it would definately be an EMAG, and NOTHING ELSE. I just LOVE how you can use electro, and if the battery dies, I could just flip a switch and it'll be just like old times with my ReTro minimag!

      Plus I like to feel like I am shooting a solid piece of equipment, and not activating something else that does the shooting for me (not as fun).

        Ok, chew on this:

        Mech arguement:
        It's a good idea to go with this if you can bring down the price quickly. When you go mech, you don't have problems like "the solenoid alignment wont work with a z-grip". You also don't have to deal with batteries(no big, but it's good to spend less on batteries). There is also the fact that a mechanical trigger using a roller would a good thing. Also, when you have a light mechanical trigger, you have a better backup mode for an emag. hmmm? Yes! better Manual mode for E-MAG! That means a trigger that feels almost the same no matter what.

        Electro arguement:
        Ever see the video of Clare's trigger being blown on? That's all I need to say... very insane stuff there.

            I am an electro addict.Reason I sold my mag was to go electro(pre Emag days,or just as it came out),and I've never looked back.I have a cocker,but I refuse to use it.
            I admit though,I want an RT backup,my gun is an Angel LCD.I prefer electros over mech,it's a personal thing,I'm not saying one is better than the other.

              Why would you buy an electronic gun when you can buy a mechanical gun thats just as good in every way? Its perverted. More things to go wrong.

                yikes

                i was just about to buy a cocker when i read this post.

                not actually in the process of buying, but seriously thinking about it. not because i dont like mags, just because i want something fun and different.

                could this new trigger be it? may this sway my decision?

                i say mech or electro. i can rip on electro, but a nice mech trigger would be great too.

                im not worried about reliability as it is AGD!!!

                        I'm a mechanical man myself, but i can't afford to go electro so i'm limmited. I voted to debate it for a while... cause this is a very ify question that, as I own a mini, i would love to have a soft magnetic trigger.. but if i had the money would i buy that over an electro... I don't know.

                          If the only electronic component was the trigger and both are easily set up and adjustable I'd say mechanical. Long term there are no batteries involved and I don't have to worry about something dying n the middle of a game. However, mechanical parts do wear and my adjustments may have to be tinkered with many times over the life of the product. If there was other functionality involved and depending on what it was I'd may say electronic.

                                I'd say go with mechanical, just because there'd be less to go wrong. But, if you make it electronic, people would like it because they can mess with stuff.
