    What about ACE on a mech gun?

    Just a thought, but how come we have NEVER seen ace on a mech gun?? Obviously it would take a board, but it didnt mean it has to be electronic. You could have the board controll SOLELY the ace. What do you guys think?

    ummm then how would the ACE know that you pulled the trigger?

    and if you are haveing something "sence" a trigger already...why keep it mech?

    I would say Xmag: hybred mode would qualify....but if the Xmag is on it still used the HES even in hybred mode..so it realy isint a mech...unless the batt is off..but then how do you have the eyes on?

      Because it would still be much cheaper. With this you would just need the trigger acvitivation things, ace, and a small board... no solenoid, or aditional programming, and on top of that some people like mechanical only, but dont like to chop... Lvl 10 and anti chop bolts arent as full proof as ACE ya know...

        Um. no.

        How does an electronic board stop a manual trigger from being pulled?

          It "can" be done.

          Eye,board controller and little soleniod to activate either the manual safty or with a little mod,a sear disconnector.

          I think you don't see it 'cause producton wise,it's just as easy to go electro and gain the electro benifits.Now if "Mech" only type stuff got real popular(doubt it)you'd see it popping up as a mod on every high end mechanical in one form or another.

            Why would you need a solinoid at all? Just a microswitch, board, and eyes. I just think it would be neat, and really that much.

            Another question... I assume its not because of the lack-thereof, but is it possible to make a reactive autococker? It seems like it could be done...

              How you going to stop it from firing? What is the board going give it's instructions to?

                I get it... Wow, I completely didnt think of this. Well crap. Back to the drawing boards.

                  With the LX on the Mag and the Jamm Bolt available for the autococker, is there a huge need out there for an antichop system?

                  At the feed rates of most mechanicals, I think blowback is the biggest culprit to stop and it can be managed without an anti-chop eye.

                      I haven't even turned on my ACE in my X-Mag.

                        I recently quit electro, and got a GX3 Chaos cocker. Now, if I get a Raxe frame(EBlades are crap), it says it includes eyes, would I need to drill and crap to install them?

                          Yes you will need to drill the cocker for eyes, secondly Eblades do not suck(ask anyone who's shot my Freeflow).

                          On topic: The only "mechanical ACE" system I see as being feasible is something along the lines of the Cam-feed from the Omen. Otherwise Anti-Chop bolts like the APB and Blind bolt coming out from OTB seem to be able to do the job.

                              With the eye on on EBlades, it's capped at 10bps, I can shoot faster with mech only.
