    A BIG Trigger Question!!!!!!

    AO,

    I have a hypothetical question for you. If there were two guns, each with identical performance and price. One is an electronic trigger that can adjust down to your typical soft pull. The other is a mechanical trigger but almost as light as the E trigger, kind of like an Emag with two magnets.

    Which would you buy and why?

    Thanks,

    AGD

    MECH MECH MECH!!! AHHH!!!

    My mag is in dire need of trigger lightening... and as you know, I'm one of the kids who isn't allowed to spend much over $100... per perchase that is.

    hmm... seems like having it upgraded would cost more than that... but, an advange of a light mech is that you could have um... z-roller-grips!

      Electronic.

      Because it seems that you get more for your money if they are both the same price.

        Tom,
        I'd like the mechanical magnet trigger over the electrical one. Less things to go wrong due to the abuse of hard play.
        Thanks,

          Depends on what price range this gun is supposed to be in, if its in the mid-lower range, i would go with a very nice feeling mech trigger, because cheap feeling electro triggers are a dime a dozen right now. High end range, I would say electro trigger because if you are paying the money, most people would appreciate being able to adjust it to as ridiculously light as they want.

              WAHOO!!!

              Give me a Super Trigger for my RT Pro and I will be one happy happy man.

              I'd get one if it retrofitted onto an I-Frame easily. Possibly even a new frame. Super I-Frame.

              I like tactile triggers. :) It's nice having a 'click' in my rhythm.

              I think a trigger pull is all about length. Short length is more important than the amount of force to pull it, for me anyway.

                I would buy a mechanical gun over an electro if it had the following attributes; would not chop, nice lite electro like trigger pull and was centerfeed.

                  I went from 'lower end' markers to the Angel to E-mag to Retromag. Just something I love about having a fully mechanical base marker, that I love. [and I'm even studying to be an electrical engineer, lol]

                    if you were make a softer mecha trigger for mags, i would drop my impy and buy a mag with out hesitation. electric stuff is to much work, with batteries and worrying about droping them and getting them wet, thus frying them and losing out on the money you put into it, seems like to much hassle.

                      Mechanical all the way. Three reasons:
                      1) Less likely to malfunction.
                      2) I can, in all likelyhood, fix it if there is a problem.
                      3) I would have to guess it would be considerably cheaper.

                      Hey, if anyone can do it right, I trust you can Tom. You haven't disappointed us in the past.

                          I would like the light mech trigger for the higher ROF and durability. Not to mention the fact that when a mechanical trigger gets wet, you can play anyways, no stopping to dry off. Besides.. anything for my Purple People Eater is good.

                            Hmmm. Probably not "Instead Of"--I loves my EMag--but certainly "In addition to." :)

                              Mechanical...

                              It's easier, and most likely the trigger would still have some 'mech' left to it which I love. The RTPro trigger IMO is alot nicer then the E-Mag's (I have owned a couple of each )
