super light mechanical OMG i have to have one trigger

[adam shannon]

im sure everybody else who shot it will get a little more technical..but OMG i want/need one.

tom wouldnt let anybody near that marker with a set of allen keys to see what it looked like inside...but right now i really dont care...i just want one.

no hype...we were walking that trigger like an e-mag. im not that fast on an e-trigger, but i could walk the super light mech as fast as i can my e-mags trigger.

heres the video

I can't wait!

As soon as I hear they're available, My checking account is gonna be feelin it!

[maglover52]

have they said around how much are they gonna be?

[adam shannon]

i may be wrong...but i think awhile ago tom posted the goal was to make it a drop in mod...and have it for under $100. that sounded like the prelim goals...i have no idea what they will go for if they go to production. after 3 days of pestering tom with a million Q's i had a feeling i forgot one. doh!

Can they/do they run on classics or can the classic not keep up? Wouldn't it be dumb to have a RT/X valve that pushes the trigger against yoru finger if you have a superlight frame?

Basically should I hold off on getting an xvalve?

Any word on price/when they will be out?

[Jerhew]

alright adam...
DETAILS!
you asked him tons of q's
let's have a report(ok unless Tom made you pinky swear not to :P)
i'm right there with anyone who says they wanna be the first to own one
though i'm not surprised that Tom won't let us see how it works...

then again...im not too worried about how it works
you say you can walk it?
hrm TK said it wasn't light enough for anyone to walk
i guess Tom under estimates some of our trigger walking abilities(it helps to be a bass player :) )
then again...if anyone saw that video cdawg posted a couple weeks ago of him walking his rt...geez

well i imagine it'd just make it even faster having an rt and a light trigger
a la hybrid mode...

and even if you didn't want the rt effect, i'd pick up a retro/x valve just for the recharge rate

[adam shannon]

i missed the in depth talk on the mech trigger...i just shot it. this was the first time i met tom so i had all the usual questions after we got the kissing of the ring and all that out of the way. i forgot to ask about the super light...but then after shooting it i just wanted one. i truly dont care if there a hampster inside on a treadmill...i just want one.

[Jerhew]

im so jealous
i might just go to the IAO just to try to get a chance to shoot it

Finally, people know how I felt after trying it at Paintball Sam's Big Game.

so nice...definatley another thing to toss on my buy list, for the days hybrid and E don't do it for me

[Potatoboy]

I agree.

It's very light.

This is actually the second time I've used it, and I think this one was better than the first.
I believe the price is targeted around $100, but I'm also not sure.
The kit will work on a classic, and it's adjustable for the lightness you prefer.
One of the side effects is that it does take some of the reactivity out of the RT, but that is adjustable as well.

[Jerhew]

well if i can walk it...
who needs an rt

[Digits]

How light are we talking here?

Geese.. Another hundred bucks im gonna spend.. Lol
