    I think its a rod that sticks out of your trigger to the side of your gun so you can grab it and shake it fast to fire faster? I dunno it sounds pretty stupid to me.

      Yeah that s what i think it might be but i havnt gotten a sure answer
      If that is it wouldnt it be kinda hard to aim with one hand on the handle and one shaking back and forth on the side of the marker?

        That's all that it is. If you have a tank cover with some grip on the back of it, you really don't need to have your trigger hand on the frame to support the gun.

              A whammy bar

              a whammy bar is a short threaded rod that screws in the side of a trigger mostly used on electros. Its a small rod with little orings on it for grip. its real easy with an electro to put your hand vertical and tap the bar or just use a couple fingers its insane but as the other post said it is tourny illegal i don't think they make them anymore. hope this helped

                      Yeah it does seam pretty dumb mayby thats why i havnt ever heard of it before. But if it does make a big difference i guess its pretty cool.

                        Think about how you would hold a marker. *Thumb under back part of gun* Now, point your 2 shooting fingers (or 1) forward toward the front of the marker. Now just tap on the top of the bar and Voila! Easy walking. Point being it was a more ergonomic way to walk your trigger since you don't have to position your hand funny.

                        I haven't shot it, so I can't say if it got in the way. But, like the thread I started said. It was just another way to rip on a trigger. I just was curious to see what happened to it.

                        Guess I know now. Banned since the trigger guard doesn't cover it. *shrug* oh well...
